The Card Game You Play
at the Bouldering Gym

Every boulder problem becomes a new challenge with a simple draw from the deck.

The Indoor Bouldering Card Game

Take a break from the beta by breaking the beta! Beta Break turns any boulder problem at the climbing into a competitive card game with your climbing friends.


Setup is Easy…

01

Solo or With Friends

Play alone or with friends

Solo-play or a group of up to five players works best. Sure, you can play with more friends, but the game will last much longer.

02

CHOOSE THE PROBLEM

Suggested: v0 – v3

Choose a boulder problem that you will all climb. I know v0-v3 sounds easy, but believe us, the game gets difficult fast.

03

STARTING EFFECTS

Beta card + Break card

Randomly choose a Beta card and a Break card to be the first active effects. Place these cards side-by-side, faceup.

04

Play the game

Shuffle First

Shuffle the deck and place it face-down. This is the Draw pile. You are now ready to play Beta Break. Simply draw a card and climb.

…Playing is Easier

01

Draw a Card

The Climber

The player drawing the card becomes The Climber for the turn. The Climber, well, climbs the problem.

02

Read the Card

And Read the Route

The Climber follows the card’s effect.

03

Attempt the Send

You Get One Chance

The Climber attempts to send the problem. Fail, and lose one health

04

The Next Climber

Draw a Card

The next player takes their turn.

The winner remains when all other players have failed a send.
