DESCRIPTION

Salton Sea is a unique place located in California, very close to the border with Mexico. The characteristics of this salt lake make it a unique place to generate geothermal energy, which uses the heat of the planet. In this area of ​​intense geothermal activity, you will drill into the ground and extract brine that, once processed, will allow us to obtain the precious lithium and sell it as part of a modern industry, far from fossil fuels, that will allow you to lead the energy transition towards a completely renewable future.

Designed by David Bernal and illustrated by Amelia Sales, Salton Sea can be played solo or in groups of up to four players in sessions lasting approximately 120 minutes. During the game, players must manage their own lithium geothermal mining companies to obtain the most points. The extraction of this material and its subsequent processing will be the driving force of your companies.

During your turn, place one of your four engineers on one of the available spaces to perform an action. There are three different groups of actions: industrial actions (which allow you to obtain a license to explore, drill, extract, process or repair machinery), commercial actions (sell, acquire contracts and execute contracts) and management actions (research, purchase shares, develop the business project or finance it). It is up to you to manage the engineers at each point in the game to get the most out of your company.

However, there is no single path to success. The game will reward you for depleted land, completed contracts, short-term goals, business development, or research progress. Can you harness the power of the Salton Sea to create the most efficient geothermal company?
