Peak Players Are Passing Time At The Airport In Increasingly Elaborate Ways

"No one likes waiting, especially when there's nothing to do to pass the time. Peak developer Landfall Games had that same thought when working on Peak's most recent DillyDally update. It adds a handful of activities to lobbies while waiting for other players to join, including a basketball hoop, photo booth, and chess pieces. Players went straight to work with the chess pieces, but not according to official rules the classic game uses."

""My friend and I got bored after we finished a climb," wrote Imanthony89 in a post on the Peak subreddit. "Used all the chess pieces and bing bong. That's a queen and a few pawns above the rafters" The update released last week, and social media was flooded with chess pieces stacked ceiling-high in the airport lobby over the weekend. Peak's physics system, which can lead to some quirky antics on climbs, turned out to be perfect for some extracurricular activities for the scouts."

Peak's DillyDally update adds interactive activities to airport lobbies, including a basketball hoop, a photo booth, and movable chess pieces. Players used the chess pieces to stack them ceiling-high, exploiting Peak's physics system and creating playful, nonstandard setups. A Reddit user described stacking a queen and several pawns above the rafters after finishing a climb. The update released last week and social media filled with images of chess pieces piled in the terminal. Peak launched in June and has received additional updates, including an August Mesa biome with tornadoes, heat, and scorpions, while another biome remains teased.
