SAVERNAKE FOREST
Survival of the Fluffiest
Designer: Rodrigo Rego | Publisher: Devir Games
There’s a saying which goes “Fail to Prepare, Prepare to Fail.” If you are one of the adorable critters who inhabit Savernake Forest with autumn disappearing and winter approaching, then you’d better have this above your bed, or at the very least on a t-shirt.
Savernake Forest is a game about playing card tiles, building paths through the forest and gathering food to prepare for the end of the year. There’s a decent number of components and cards contained within. The palette here is of muted browns and reds and greens, all designed to put you in the gathering mood as you create a square of sixteen cards, trying to maximise your foraging and the points you gain for each animal that is fed with what it favours most.
