Play for the Planet: DAYBREAK Board Game

Daybreak at Penn

DAYBREAK is a cooperative board game designed by Matt Leacock that challenges players to take on the roles of world powers in the fight against climate change. Each player will deploy policies and technologies to dismantle the engine of global heating while building resilient societies that protect people from life-threatening crises.

In DAYBREAK, if the global temperature rises too high or if too many people from any world power are in crisis, everyone loses. But if you work together to draw down global emissions to net-zero, you all win.

Whether you're a seasoned board gamer or new to the world of tabletop strategy, DAYBREAK offers a compelling and educational experience that highlights the urgency of climate action.
