Game: Undergrowth
November 8th, 2023
Elizabeth Hargrave, designer of the wonderful tabletop game Wingspan, has just launched a kickstarter for a brand new game about mushrooms, along with fellow game designer and former park ranger Mark Wootten.
A couple years ago I went through a series of non-fiction books which went into depth about how fungi work, starting with Braiding Sweetgrass, then onto Entangled Life, and finally Finding the Mother Tree. This trio of books were easily the most important non-fiction books I’ve read in the last 5 or so years. At the same time I was reading those books, the game I played by far the most was Wingspan.
I could not back this Kickstarter fast enough.
