A dynamic game of tactics - a competition for space and resources to create your own mushroom kingdom. The game follows the life cycle of fungi. A journey of creation, expansion, death and rebirth. Growing mushrooms to score points, sporing them to expand your mycelial network and eventually seeing them decay to unlock special actions. This beautiful game incorporates beautiful and accurate botanical style illustrations with over 65 mushrooms that can be found in the wild. A player has two actions to perform on their turn and only 6 options to choose from. An easy game to learn but full of tactics to make every game different and engaging. Using your decay actions, stealing spores and blocking other mushrooms are just some of the ways to get ahead in the game. Players can evolve their own playing style - perhaps playing more aggressively to steal other players spores or disrupt their mycelial network. Or perhaps play more defensively and try to protect your own area and spores. The board is made up of triangle tiles that represent different environments and nutrients that the mushrooms need to grow. These tiles can be added to the board by the players, so the board is always growing and evolving. This means that every game of Mycelia is different. —description from the publisher
