Pegasus Spiele FUNG Fungi Card Game, Multicolour

Product Information

Fly agarics are instantly placed in the Display and temporarily reduce your hand limit by four. They’re in effect for the current turn and the next one. For instance, if you have a Basket in your Display, playing a Fly agaric reduces your hand limit to six for this turn and the next. You must place cards from your hand in the Discard pile to bring your hand down to the new temporary limit. Butter and Cidre are extra cards. You add them to your mushrooms for bonus points when you cook them in the Pan. The goal of Fungi is fairly simple: collect and cook mushrooms. To win? Simply have the most flavour points from the creations you’ve cooked. Manage your hand well, avoid poisonous mushrooms and don’t forget to add a bit of butter and cider to your dish for extra points and you should do well in Fungi. It’s a charming two-player game, although its gameplay shows its age.

What’s In the Fungi box?The game is played with the cards being laid out to represent the forest. You'll start by removing two pans and placing one in front of each player and shuffle the rest of the forest cards. These will be the draw pile. Leave some space next to it for a discard pile. Bear in mind that Fly agarics also impact your total hand limit, even if only temporarily. Ending the Game Image From Benjamin Kitchen Fungi is like the essence of an autumn forest: full of warm colours, slightly damp mossy ground and, of course, delicious mushrooms sprouting after a gentle rain. Players are walking through the forest collecting all the edible mushrooms they can find, to cook later over their open fire. This time, put the Decay pile directly between you in the center of the table. Imagine there are spaces for ten cards around the empty pile, in either a rectangle or circle (a rectangle works best).
