Foragers is a strategy game in which players take on the role of ancient foragers competing to be the most respected member of the tribe In the game foragers pick fruit from trees fish in lakes & hunt aurochs in the fields After collecting these foods the foragers return to a fire pit where they "share" their food with the tribe & earn victory points In addition the foragers sometimes happen upon tools which allow them to forage fish or hunt more efficiently Of course foragers are not completely altruistic & so they occasionally fight with each other to earn respect The player who can best optimize their food & tool gathering while also avoiding or winning skirmishes is the one who eventually earns the tribe leader title The game is played over a predetermined number of rounds depending upon the number of players In each round all players simultaneously choose an action card from a hand of 3 action cards (drawn from a deck of 10) to use for that round Each action card lists 5 different actions but a player may only use 4 of those actions each round Then in clockwise order each player performs 1 of the actions on their card until all players have performed 4 actions Such actions include things like walking foraging eating discovering resting sharing & picking up a tool When players pick up food they place it on their tableau which tracks the food&s freshness At the end of each round a "spoilage card" is flipped & all players "age" their food (ie move them along a food track) As the food gets older it does not provide as much energy if eaten Also to score victory points players must "share" their food before it spoils In this sense the players are racing not only against each other but against nature ...
