Since there’s no option to discard from your hand, choosing and playing Fly agarics at the right time can help you out. I’d equally recommend it to anyone who is a fan of creative card games with endearing art styles and character designs. The forest floor “evolves” with every turn, with a card entering the “decay” pile once per turn – this effectively acts as the forests reduced section, offering you the chance to pick up more than one card, but it’s only available when there are four or less cards in it. After taking the two steps in you can try letting go, turning around, and then catching the parachute edge or letting go completely, according to time. You would have to use a number of bags to account for all reasonably possible growth fullures and successes.

Fungi break down and absorb orgtanic material for their nourishment, so any experiment must first provide them with food. That makes sense because the simple rules and cute artwork are intended to be catered for younger players. As in the list of actions seen below, you could take the cards from the Decay pile (provided you meet certain requirements). That’s not to say there are no niggles with the gameplay – the constant movement of the forest can be a little annoying.The game comes in a small, round container with 60 cards, 35 point tokens, and an instructions sheet inside.

Once you’ve played one or two rounds of the “straight-line” version, you don’t need the Pair of Shoes card. Heads shoulders knees and toes’ where everybody moves the parachute to the appropriate height, is fun too.

Fungi is a brilliantly creative game – its elements are very simple but beautifully illustrated, with each card having enough individuality and character to make it identifiable without needing to know the name of each mushroom. This time, though, move the Pair of Shoes card clockwise around the circle/rectangle instead of shuffling the cards along.
