My Lil’ Everdell: A Family-Friendly Adventure in the World of Board Games
Hey, parents! Are you looking for a new, engaging game to play with your younger children that doesn’t compromise on fun for the whole family? Look no further! Introducing My Lil’ Everdell, an adorable and captivating board game designed to keep both kids and adults entertained.
My Lil’ Everdell is perfect for introducing younger children to the mechanics of more complex games like Everdell. With special cards, such as the Fort and the Captain, your little ones will get a helpful head start, making the game enjoyable and fair for everyone involved. Trust us, this is the game you wish you had when your kids were younger!
Setup and Gameplay:
The game includes cute crates for holding resources like berries, twigs, and resin, which are placed on designated spaces on the board. The moon token serves as a round tracker, moving across four rounds, while the sun token is given to the first player.
Players choose their favorite creature (butterflies, foxes, lizards, or mice) and place them on the board as workers to perform various actions. Spaces with multiple paw prints have no limit to the number of creatures, while spaces with only one paw print can only have one creature per round.
At the beginning of each round, players roll the dice to determine the resources they can collect. Players can also place their creatures on cards with paw prints in their tableau to perform additional actions.
The game features parade tiles placed in descending order, with the first player to achieve a parade card receiving the highest points. Players can also purchase market cards and plan their actions strategically to maximize their points.
After four rounds, the game ends, and players tally their points from cards and parade cards.
