Living Forest
Four nature spirits race to save a burning forest, and only one takes the credit.
What it is
A fun game for 2 to 4 people, perfect for anyone who wants a deck game in a gentle setting. You protect a sacred tree from the fire spirit Onibi by flipping guardian animal cards for elements, though some animals refuse to work alongside others. Plant 12 trees, collect 12 flowers or put out 12 fires to win. It won the Kennerspiel des Jahres in 2022.
What we love
- Three separate routes to victory, all ending at twelve.
- The group faces the flames each round, but only one player wins.
- Fail to hold back the fire and anyone short on water adds dead cards to their deck.
Honest trade-offs
- You play nature spirits in a fable with guardian animals and magic fragments. It is not a ritual game, but it is worth knowing if your family avoids spirit imagery.
