Title: You MUSH make ROOM in your game collection for MORELS!
Review: My husband and I love board games.. I wanted to get him one for Christmas, but couldn’t spend the usual 50-60 bucks. I saw Morels and the price was right..besides..my husband HATES eating mushrooms…so it was a fun joke…wanna play the mushroom game??!! Ha ha..We LOVE this game! I won the first 6 games…until he got evil and started selling mushrooms for sticks and taking all the baskets so I was stuck with just one basket…A fun two player quick game, 20-30 mins tops usually. A very quick paced game once you play through a round or two, the worst part is having to move the cards when they are lined up in a line. Husband found online a suggestion to put cards in a circle and rotate them out that way.. we play it that way now and it was so much faster and easier not having to rotate every card every round.Simple play style- the object is to harvest mushrooms using the cards in your hand, in the field (6 rotating cards) while getting baskets that let you carry more cards in your hands (very important!) while picking up grills to cook your mushrooms and possibly selecting butter or cider to make your mushroom dish taste better (read: MORE POINTS!) The game requires you to make tough decisions on whether you want a certain item now or you can wait until it goes into decay-where your opponent might take them before your next turn.Fast paced and exciting- I LOVE the game…not just because I beat the tar out of my hubby 6 times…cause he got me back that 7th game…but because its a quick-learned game, that has strategy and the cards are gorgeous- the artist did an amazing job! We have a lot of board games/card games- (Ticket to Ride/Carcassonne/Bohnanza/Mamma Mia/Too many Cooks and many more) and we didn’t want another of the same old same old game..this is creative, I think its the only mushroom game out there–plus you learn about all kinds of mushrooms, and heck if you like mushrooms, that’s a good thing!

Title: Best choice I made for a 2-player game
Review: Best gaming choice I made for a 2-player game with my girlfriend. Great theme and execution.ProsEasy to learn, but difficult to master.It is comfortably balanced and quick. Different strategies will lead to different results. This leads to high replaybaility.Brilliant art and theme.Price is fair.ConsSome of the risk-taking could be better. The bad mushroom card is easy to avoid.I wish there was some kind of board or way to move the cards more easily rather than having to keep

Title: This game puts the fun in fungi!
Review: I read about this game somewhere and wanted to gift it to my husband at Christmas but sadly it was sold out. So just before Valentine’s Day I checked again and was able to buy it. We played it that night and almost every night since. It is an awesome two player game that you can develop new strategies for over time. I’ll admit the rules and gameplay were a little challenging at first. We watched two videos and midway through my husband asked if this was a practical joke. But once we started playing we quickly picked it up. The game goes pretty quickly – so much so that we usually play three rounds just because it’s that fun. It’s the perfect combination of challenging and relaxing. We just ordered the expansion pack which also looks confusing at first but looking forward to adding another dimension to this addictive little game.

Title: Good for home date nights
Review: My husband and I have used this game for at home date nights for years now! We like this one best from the two-player games we’ve tried because it is chill, doesn’t take too long to play one game, and is a good mix of chance and strategy. We love the beautiful illustrations! And it has inspired us to try more variety of mushrooms in our cooking lol! We love to order nice pizza, grab a bottle of wine and salad from the store, then enjoy this game at home while the kids are asleep.

Title: Wonderful game with a unique theme
Review: I was looking for an easy-to-learn, two-player game that could act not only as a filler game for my small gaming group, but also as something that I could play with my wife. She’s not keen on many modern board games, but the theme of Morels, combined with what seemed like a fairly uncomplicated rule set, looked like it might appeal to her. I’m happy to report that it did.After a handful of plays, everyone who has tried Morels with me has enjoyed it. Gameplay is elegant and flows well, and it allows for light to medium strategy and planning. The art is beautiful, too; the various settings for the different mushroom types, as well as the differences between day and night cards, shows great attention to detail and passion for the subject matter.The only downside of gameplay is that it gets a little fiddly, continuously having to shift the cards on the table to the right as new ones are revealed. I can’t think of a different mechanic that would work better (although I have heard of a alternative circular layout), but it does tend to bog down play ever so slightly. I also wish that the game came with the plastic foraging sticks and frying pans that were made available at some game conventions. For a game so steeped in theme, having those upgraded components in the baseline package would have put it over the top.All in all, Morels is a tasty two-player game that brings a one-of-a-kind theme to the gaming table. I’m looking forward to seeing what’s next from Two Lanterns Games. (Also, if you want a more in-depth look into the design process for Morels, I recommend checking out the Two Lanterns website. I enjoy the game’s theme even more after reading about the love and research that went into it.)
