Radiating Lushgarden 🌿 – Grünes Herzstück voller Leben

Der eigentliche Plan war heute "Tidal Blades 2" zu spielen, aber klappte leider nicht bei der ganzen Naviri-Gäng.

Stattdessen gab's "Perch", "Wild Gardens" & "Evenfall" - definitiv ne würdige Alternative. Feiner Abend!

There has been some serious #Squirrelstruction going on on our porch. Because the box was wet, we left it outside to dry off, and #MamaSquirrel was been tearing it apart to collect materials for a nest remodel. Her #youngSquirrel has been following her all around. #Squirrel #WildGardens

A good weekend of board games.

My Meetup's library event was on Saturday morning, featuring a learn-and-play of AZUL. Another attendee brought DICE KINGDOMS OF VALERIA, which is a fun roll-and-write that focuses on chaining together actions; it's a bit like HADRIAN'S WALL, but not as complicated. I may need to consider getting it.

Back home, we continued our Clank! Legacy 2 campaign with game 11 -- one game is left. And we played some smaller games: the card game DRAGONKEEPERS, and the bag-builder GARDLINGS.

Sunday we brought out WILD GARDENS (shown), published by Rose Gauntlet, for the second time; the last time we played it was in October. You're foragers wandering along paths to collect ingredients such as mushrooms, bark, aquatics, and fruits, and using them for recipes like Elderberry Lemonade that award points. Guests want specific combinations of recipes, like (a main dish) + (a drink), or (dessert) + (anything), and they grant additional points plus an immediate benefit or an ongoing ability.

This library board is from WILD GARDENS. You can take a Study action to check out the book matching a particular ingredient, and also collect the skill token next to it. The skill token goes on your personal board and improves one of your available three actions.

The very slow process of birch logs breaking down. These were simple firewood, formed into a pile a couple of years ago. A complex and ever changing ecosystem.
