Photo Club 2027

You are students trying to take photos for your high school photo club. The local state park has all sorts of beautiful views, and maybe you are just a few hikes from mastering the use of your camera. Move around pieces, collect inspirational goals, and try to score as many points as possible puzzling out the perfect perspective. Use the camera frame included, or your own phone camera, to collect pictures, earn equipment, and work with and against seasonal scoring goals.

On a turn, you will ‘hike’ and ‘snap’ to score points, completing each in either order. When hiking, you will move and/or rotate one of the 3D elements of the board, such as a tree or an animal. When snapping, you will either use the camera frame or your own phone camera to take a real picture, finding the right perspective while staying seated at your side of the mat. To score, you will try and complete as many of your goal ‘inspiration’ cards as possible, like a certain number of bushes, or no butterflies, or the deer between two trees. You may also earn bonus action equipment cards for your private goal of always including a specific animal. Veteran players can even play with season cards, a set of stacking goals that introduce other scoring methods as well as provide an evolving world for you to photograph.

The game that truly captures the puzzle of the perfect snap, full of beautiful art and creative freedom.
