Dan, despite being a sucker for card-based set collection games - I can't resist needing to pick up FS as well. But I do wonder if I need it to accompany Floriferous and Spirits of the Forest.
What am I missing?! I'm going to give it more plays, but what have I missed? I've played it a few times, it looks nice, but the scoring is completely broken! Most of the types aren't worth the points, deer/wolves and trees are easily the most powerful thing in the game. And I don't know the sweet player count as with 2 players, the game goes on for ages and you end up with so many cards in front of you that the scoring becomes obscene. Play with more players though and the game drags out with downtime and chaos. Points end up past 300 without trying with less players (how come 3 of you got such low scores in your scorepad?) and you forget where most of them even came from. But everyone still seems to love it despite all of that.
In 2 minds about this one - seems a great idea with the ‘synergising’ of cards etc., but the endgame scoring looks a bit of a pain.
The scoring is worth the extra effort because of the sheer amount of options

I think I missed a rank (which I love seeing in your videos). Where did this one land? In your top 100?
I'm going to be a bit more coy over the next few weeks before my top 100 starts.

Another great game that Luke doesn’t like, what a surprise 😜
I think they like the art but, without playing, I am seeing what you’re seeing. I’m tired just watching the reviews.
Soul, Luke. You are missing a soul. 😂 JK. I love your channel
@@SAUPAYANMAZUMDAR he he I don't know you might be right 🤣🤣
@@BoardGameGirl55 There's plenty others! But I'm giving it more games to try and win me back but yeah the scoring and balance are a big issue.
Great review. Will you be reviewing Nucleum soon? Seems like a game you will love.
I'm not sure. Finding it difficult to play bigger games atm
this vs Canopy, which is a better game?
I've not played Canopy sorry
