Changing Seasons
over 2 years ago – Wed, Sep 27, 2023 at 11:16:21 AM

Greetings Forest Friend,

In the northern hemisphere fall has started, and here in Portland it went from sunshine to rain overnight and hasn’t looked back. While we miss the sun, we’re excited for cozy boardgame nights with tea and friends and sweaters. As the seasons change we adapt and shift to fit them, and that is exactly what our next Stretch Goal will require. 

Shifting Seasons on the Horizon

Our next stretch goal is at $77,000 and will unlock 5 Shifting Seasons cards. This advanced variant, will be included in all copies of the game, adding variety to each season. When playing with the Shifting Seasons, you reveal one card at the start of each Season. The cards have an effect that changes the game for both players. Some Shifting Seasons change or add scoring conditions, others allow extra draws or food collection. We are excited for this stretch goal as the Shifting Season cards create a new and varied experience each game. 

River Otter is a Playful Mimic

Thank you all for contributing your votes for which ability the River Otter should have. The Playful Mimic was the favorite by a long shot, and we look forward to all the shenanigans this cuddly creature will bring to the game, as it copies the abilities of other wildlife. Vincent is already working on the illustration and we should have some artwork of the River Otter to share in early October.

Storage Solution Unlocked

We are really excited that we’ve now unlocked the tuckbox storage solution and will be adding these great organizers to the game. I don’t think we can really communicate how much these will add to the game, and we can’t wait for you to open the game and experience it for yourself. 

Thanks you for being part of our forest!

Tim and the Weird Citizens
