Forces of Nature is a simple yet sophisticated card game where 2-4 players must fight to win as the last player standing. Each turn, players draw cards and make tough decisions. Players use the available Will – a growing economy for the round – to bring cards from their hand into the Wild – the gameplay area. Once in the Wild, players command their cards and animals to battle opponents. Animal, Force, and Nature cards with their own unique abilities may seem simple by themselves, but masterfully combining them can lead to some exceptionally thrilling matches. Animals – like the Gorilla – can attack other animals and players in the Wild, and can also be used to defend attacks from opponents. Force cards – such as Patience – can make opponents reevaluate their strategy by making permanent changes to animals during the game. Nature cards – including Volcano – change the course of the game by directly impacting players and animals in the Wild. Force of Nature is a special card that can deal a devastating blow to opponents – it removes all animals for all players in the Wild. Used at just the right moment, this card can dramatically turn the tables on unsuspecting players. The last surviving player wins Forces of Nature. —description from the designer
