Great price (2 more)
Solo play
Pocket sized - great for when on the go.
Possibly difficult to get hold of a copy while kickstarter orders are fulfilled. (0 more)
This is one of my freshly backed kickstarters and I am delighted with it. The simple concept of placing cards and growing apples is brilliant.
While it is possible to play mulitplayer rules, Orchard is played solo with players dividing the deck in to two sets of 9 (each game uses 9 cards). Starting with one card on the table the player draws two cards and chooses one to play, matching the colours on previously laid card. An ingenius mechanic, the choice of where to play your card in order to gain the most points, is challenging and frustrating in equal measure.
Pocket sized and playable in 10 minutes, this is an excellent solo game for anyone in the go. Can't recommend it highly enough at its low cost price.

❄️ As December settles in and the nights grow long, it’s the perfect season for stories of wandering princes, whispered secrets, and divine mysteries.

In Feathers and Foxes, Terrwyn of Melthkior—a prince and wandering scribe—is summoned to uncover the truth behind stolen apples gifted by the goddess Olwen. But in the kingdom of Erast, riddles deepen, loyalties blur, and the sudden disappearance of a young maid named Sulien draws Terrwyn into something far more personal than a simple quest.

A reimagining of 'The Golden Bird,' woven with Welsh mythology and quiet romance, FEATHERS AND FOXES is ideal winter reading for fans of fairytale retellings and mythic fantasy. 🦊✨
