Creature Comforts

Game ID: GID0078252
Collection Status
Description

Life in the forest is a lot of fun, at least while the sun is shining and the leaves are on the trees. Those days don’t last forever though, and long before the weather starts to change, the wise animals start to harvest for the long cold winter ahead. You will spend many months tucked into your burrow and you want to make it as cozy as possible. A nice bowl of soup, a comfortable rocking chair, and some toys and games will go a long way to make those dark winter days pass by quickly.

In Creature Comforts, you spend the Spring, Summer, and Fall gathering different goods from the forest and spending them to collect items that will make your home more inviting while the world outside is covered in a layer of snow. Each round you send family members out to various locations in an attempt to gain supplies. If they fall short of their goal, they’ll learn a lesson and be better prepared next time. The family that has created the most comfortable den wins the game.

Quotes (from this video)
  • Metal Gear Solid, without getting into spoilers, those who have played the original Metal Gear Solid on PlayStation 1 back in the '9s may be asking, how did they adapt that particular boss encounter from the video game to a tabletop experience? Isn't that impossible?
  • I wear a huge grin on my face every time I think of that encounter.
  • Meadow is a sweet game of set collection with a really interesting action selection system. The thing that really surprised me about it is the extra envelopes with additional cards to open at specific moments.
  • There are lots of hidden clues on unexpected components in Unlock. I think escape room games in general do surprises really, really well in a non-campaign format.
  • Jar says, 'When you purchase or play Jar Binks, you may spend two resources to gain one force and place him in your opponent's discard pile.'
