![]() You may not add cards if they would not do anything (why you’d want to do that will be explained later). Those cards don’t get to use their actions they’re simply discarded. Certain actions have an x on them with a card suit you may play more cards of that suit to improve that card’s effect (known as adding cards). You can use both in either order, if present, but you must completely finish one before starting the other. All cards have a Public Action (top box) and / or a Private Action (bottom box). ![]() You don’t have to play a card, but, generally, you want to kind of play the game. On your turn, it’s pretty simple: you may play one card. Let’s find out what’s happening under the hood.Īt the start of your turn, if you have any friends in your Yard, you should add those to your discard pile. Do that, and you just might win! It’s still a fair bit of deckbuilding, but with some interesting odds and ends that we should dig into. Your goal, as kids, is to build up the best fort in town. Either way, each player shuffles their deck and draws 5 cards:įort, for all its intricacy, isn’t too complex in terms of its gameplay loop. Otherwise, you can just shuffle your Best Friends in with those cards to make your starting deck! Reveal three Kid Cards below the score board to be the Park. If you want, you can play with a drafting variant where players draft those 8 cards. You may want to give them an icon reference sheet, as well: And wouldn’t you know? Your opponents are all too happy to oblige…ĭeal each player 8. But be careful! Your best friends will always stand by you, but these neighborhood kids are fickle if you forget to play with them because you’re focused on this fort of yours, they may well find their way to another person who is willing to treat them with respect. Naturally, you’re competing against your rivals to build up these forts, so you may need to recruit even more kids to your cause. You’ve got your best friends, of course, but you’ve also recruited local kids to your cause with two things that are irresistible to up-and-coming builder children: toys and pizza. In Fort, you play as kids trying to build the best fort in town. ![]() What I’d read the rest of this review for is the normal setup and gameplay, but also some thoughts about what makes it different from SPQF, and why I think those changes are by and large for the better. Either way, let’s be real here: this is an update and upgrade to a game that I just referred to as my “favorite standalone deckbuilder” if you’re looking for a harshly negative review, I’ll freely admit in the opening paragraph (a rarity!) that I really loved getting to play Fort. We’ll have to see, though, what they do next will this lead to more smaller-box titles? I’m not sure. It’s a great fit for them, though I’ll admit it’s a bit outside their Root and Vast pedigree, until you consider the asymmetry of possible playstyles available to you in Fort, then I think it makes more sense with their brand overall. But what company would want to pick up what is likely my favorite standalone deckbuilder? Oh, Leder would. Heard rumors on the wind that maybe, just possibly, SPQF was going to see new life. I’ve been waiting for this game for a long time.
