We start play with a hand limit of eight, but get a chance to increase it as time goes by in another weird thematic quirk of play. All product measurements and sizes listed are approximate, but we attempt to ensure they are as accurate as possible. Fungi is a perfectly pleasant way to spend a half hour, but that half hour could also have been spent playing something like Jaipur which would have been an awesome way to occupy the same time period. The play time is between 20 and 40 minutes and while the rules may initially seem a little boggy, this game will soon become a great pick-up-and-go addition to any collection. With sweet artwork, head-to-head competition and plenty of choices, Fungi is great fun for even the most mushroom-averse players!

Acceptance of these terms and conditions indicates acceptance by you of these checks being carried out. To go farther along the forest, where there may be less competition and choicer opportunities, you need to spend foraging sticks. 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.The number of points you get depends on the number of mushrooms required for a cluster: for example, 4 mushrooms are required for 4 points, which is the highest-value and most difficult cluster to make.

There is a great balance of collecting, building, and interaction, do you hold out for a bigger score, do you score low but often do you sabotage thier game! I’d equally recommend it to anyone who is a fan of creative card games with endearing art styles and character designs.

If you feel mercantile, sell porcini to local aficionados in exchange for information that will help you find what you seek most deep in the forest. That makes sense because the simple rules and cute artwork are intended to be catered for younger players. Do you take what’s right in front of you or spend sticks to get something more interesting further up the path?
