Game Details
Racing on a Board
You must reach the opposite corner of the Forest before your opponent does the same thing. Midway through, there is a River with a narrow bridge, creating a bottleneck that players will have to cross at the same time.
Board Manipulation
To move through the Forest, players can play Path cards that create a clear pathway through the trees. Players can also play Explorer cards that manipulate Paths in the Forest.
Online Version
The online version lets up to 4 players connect to the same room, so that they can play with each other across different computers.
Retrospective
Mutating Forest started as an idea for a strategy board game. After I experimented with online games with Vestigal, I took what I learned and applied it to an online version of Mutating Forest. In general I'm pretty happy with the gameplay and implementation, although there would ideally be more quality of life improvements and UI changes.
