Living Forest Board Game - Nature Themed Strategy Game for Kids and Adults - Ages 8+ - 2-4 Players - Average Playtime 40 Minutes - Made by Ludonaute

Purchased for my 9 year old relative. She and her parents love it. They mentioned that it did take a couple hours to set up and learn it but it was well worth it. Good value for the money.

This was my husband’s favorite Christmas present. It is very easy to learn. The art work on the cards is beautiful. There are multi ways to win the game, however one method (fire) does appear to be easier if left unchecked by other players. The components are well made and sturdy.

I would strongly recommend against this game. The complicated mechanics often (like almost every game) put you in a position where you are crippled with fire cards and you get more fire cards each turn, further crippling you. The best strategy is to be the jerk that contributes the least to the fire and put your opponents into a position where they literally can't do any thing each turn then limp yourself an agonizingly slow victory. This is a terrible gameplay experience and will have you beg to let the lead person just end the game.
