Pegasus Spiele FUNG Fungi Card Game, Multicolour

Product Information

Players are walking through the forest collecting all the edible mushrooms they can find, to cook later over their open fire. They mention that it's easy to set up, perfect for taking on trips and that the artwork is beautiful. Both players know how many of the cards are available, and as it’s a game where you use the full deck each time you know who has been collecting what. This rule is funny to me because whenever I play this game with the family, my Mum always goes first, because she loves eating mushrooms, and no one else does!

Some mushrooms are just really easy to gather – common and bland, but available in the quantities needed to all but guarantee they make a set. Oh, and don’t fear if you’re one of life’s mushroom haters, no actual fungi is used in the making of the game. Once the draw pile is emptied and the forest floor depleted, each player tallies up their points and the one with the highest amount wins. The shoes will be placed below the two cards furthest from the draw pile, which is made up of the remaining forest cards. Some are especially valuable in the shadow economy of mushrooms that exists in the forest, and cashing those in will yield greater numbers of sticks.

Yes, not only does this forest have wild pans that are free for the taking, it also apparently grows rich crops of butter and cider. The forest is the centre of play, with cards being collected from the pair of shoes for no cost or collected from deeper recesses in exchange for sticks. However, the game certainly also has enough depth to it that adults would enjoy playing, especially those who have a soft spot for those cute character designs. Rather than having to collect three normal cards, you can use a night card and a day card to make up the balance. Being the first person able to collect lucrative options at the far end of the forest can be worth it in the long run, assuming you’re able to gather them up in sufficient quantities.

Your strategy relies on strong defensive capabilities – you control your enemies by thwarting their actions and maiming their minions in combat.

You’ll be frying them up, perhaps in butter or cider, with the intention of earning the deliciousness points that will earn you victory in the final reckoning. Zatu Limited accept no liability for any delay or failure to deliver products within estimated timescales. Cards move out into a decay pile from the draft, and players can either get the cards on the decay pile, or from the forest.That’s not to say there are no niggles with the gameplay – the constant movement of the forest can be a little annoying. The leaflet is colourful, and each section is distinguished by a different coloured background (all of which are based on the game’s five colours of cards—neat! The set up takes a couple of minutes, and the game is easy to pick up but very challenging as you become more familiar with it. You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. These are acquired in exactly the same way as your mushrooms, suggesting forcefully you’re stealing stuff directly out of kitchens as you saunter past.
