Apex: Escape from the Apes

In "Apex: Escape from the Apes," players work cooperatively as adventurers to escape a fierce band of angry apes. The goal is to reach the top of a jungle pyramid before the apes do in order to be rescued by a helicopter. Using dice rolls for movement, card abilities, mutual help, and temporary distraction via treasures, the team must strategize together to survive and successfully reach the apex, ideally with treasures intact.
