❤ Resource Management

At the heart of the gameplay is resource management. On each turn, players can place their limited worker tokens to gather resources like berries, twigs, resin, and pebbles. Players then use these resources to play cards from their hand, which represent various constructions and critters that can be added to their city. Careful planning is essential to ensure the right resources are available when needed.

❤ Card Synergies

The cards are the primary means of scoring points and gaining abilities. Each card has unique effects, ranging from generating more resources to unlocking new actions. Players must search for productive combinations of cards, building intricate engines that feed off each other. Discovering and executing these card synergies is a deeply rewarding aspect of the gameplay.

❤ Tableau Building

As players acquire and play cards, they construct a personal tableau representing the growing city. The placement of these cards is important, as many provide bonuses or abilities that are triggered by having certain other cards nearby. Managing the layout of the city becomes a strategic puzzle, as players try to maximize the interactions between their constructions and critters.

❤ Season Progression

The game is divided into four seasons, and at the start of each new season, players' workers return home, freeing up the spaces they previously occupied. This gives players the opportunity to reorganize their strategies, potentially taking different actions or pursuing new paths to victory. Deciding when to progress the season can be a critical timing decision, as it can grant an advantage over opponents.

❤ Replayability

Thanks to the vast array of unique cards, the gameplay offers excellent replayability. No two games will play out the same, as the combination of available cards and the order in which they are acquired creates a dynamic and ever-changing experience. This encourages players to explore new strategies and synergies with each playthrough.

❤ Balancing Luck and Strategy

While the game has elements of luck, such as card draws, the gameplay emphasizes strategic decision-making. Players must weigh the pros and cons of their actions, managing resources and planning ahead to build the most efficient and high-scoring city. The balance between luck and strategy is a core part of what makes the gameplay engaging and rewarding.
