Forest Shuffle – Grow Your Own Living Forest 🌳🦉

Experience the miracles of the forest in this clever card game. In Forest Shuffle by Kosch, published by Lookout Games, 2–5 players aged 10+ compete to gather the most valuable trees and attract wildlife, in about 60 minutes.

It all starts with a single tree. Each turn, you play cards from your hand to grow your very own forest. Trees give homes to animals, plants and mushrooms, and the multifunctional wildlife cards are split in half – top and bottom, or left and right – so each card can go to a different spot on a tree. Combine plants and animals cleverly for extra points or bonus actions, and keep an eye on their preferences: some creatures only feel comfortable with their fellow species, others prefer certain tree types, dense treetops or lush undergrowth. Cards that nobody takes end up in the clearing in the middle of the table. When the third winter card appears, the game ends and the player with the most points wins. The beautiful illustrations are by wildlife artists Toni Llobet and Judit Piella, and the game is made from FSC-certified material.
