Product Information

Its people were most distraught, because the fairies of the woods had kidnapped the most famous musician whose music.

Trick-taking is having a bit of a moment between this game (and its co-op sequel) and, probably more notably, The Crew coming out in the last few years. If it’s just me and my wife and we are going to have a couple of drinks and want to play a card game I will grab The Fox in the Forest. Forest school is a long-term, nature-based outdoor learning program that focuses on holistic development and growth in children. This mode works fine, but it has a familiar complaint; the AI is dreadful if you are at all familiar with trick taking tactics.We have staff members who are fully trained and highly skilled in delivering the Forest School approach to teaching.

The new combination of card powers combined with moving on the path on the central board is just brilliant. So in the 2 player game Fox in the Forest, if I played a 6 of Moons, you’d have to play a Moon too, if you have one. In a lot of trick-taking games, you just want to win as many tricks as possible, but in The Fox in the Forest: Duet, you have to make sure both players win tricks.So if you’re looking for a 2-player, co-operative trick-taking game that will entertain you for a long time to come, then The Fox in the Forest: Duet is definitely for you. A round will fly by in just a few minutes and rounds are repeated until one player gains at least 21 points.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. The Monarchs, the 11 cards, force opposing players to play their highest card of the matching suit or the 1, if they have it. Do you find that it’s easier to get your family and friends into trick-taking games, vs more modern Euros? If you leave them upside down, then you won’t be able to see them when you fan out your hand of cards.The person who played the higher Moon “takes the trick”, meaning they take the cards you both played and put them in a little pile. At first glance, the rulebook seems very long and contains a lot of explanation, but a lot of it is there to explain how trick-taking works. I skipped Easy, but I imagine you will have control over every single trick and have to throttle yourself to avoid the 10+ bust situation.
