PSYCHOLOGICAL FILLER
A subtle psychological filler disguised as an unpretentious children`s toy. The board game "Mushroom" is suitable for both children and adults, beginners and experienced players, and everyone will have something to think about. Young players can simply practice counting for themselves, and adults will get a basis for bluffing and strategic calculation.
MUSHROOM PICKLING COMPETITION
The participants go to the forest for mushrooms. Everyone wants to collect as many baskets as possible. But the baskets may contain mushrooms of different values, not to mention fly agarics. At the end of the game, the players will count the points and determine the best mushroom picker.
SORTING THE MUSHROOMS INTO THE BASKETS
First, basket cards are laid out face up on the table - one more than the number of participants. All players receive five cards. Players take turns. To go, a player must have a mushroom card. If he doesn`t have one, he discards animal cards and draws cards from the deck until he finds a mushroom... Phew! Finally, he can start. The player places one mushroom card, edible or poisonous, in any basket. Instead of a mushroom card, he can play an animal card, but then he still needs to add a mushroom card!
FILLING THE BASKETS
The baskets vary in size, and they indicate how many mushrooms they can hold. By adding a mushroom card to the basket, the player can fill it up once. In this case, he either takes the full basket for himself if all the mushrooms in it are edible, or throws it away if there is at least one fly agaric in it. All mushroom cards are discarded. A new basket is placed on the table. Finally, the active player draws cards (up to five in his hand) and passes the turn to the next player.
ANIMAL CARDS
In addition to mushrooms, there are also animal cards. These cards allow you to do all sorts of funny and, undoubtedly, useful tricks. For example, a squirrel... She pulls one mushroom card from the basket, be it a porcini mushroom, chanterelles, butter mushrooms. And even a fly agaric. Well, isn`t it beautiful? Especially if you plan to fill the basket and take it for yourself next turn. The hedgehog acts like a squirrel, only instead of discarding, he moves the mushroom cards from one basket to another. And the hare! He allows the player to take one card from his neighbors. The dog, as a true friend, gives the opportunity to add two mushroom cards to one or different baskets at once.
END OF THE GAME
The game ends when the mushroom pickers have sorted out all the basket cards. The players add up the points. Each basket card brings victory points according to its size. Unplayed animal cards bring two points, edible mushrooms - according to their number divided by two, and each fly agaric takes five points. The player who has scored the most points wins.
