Brew

Players act as mystics working to restore balance to a forest where seasons and day/night rotate unpredictably. On each turn players allocate element dice to either contest areas and reclaim control of seasons through area control, or visit the village to acquire goods via worker-placement. Recruiting woodland creatures and brewing potions alters die results, mitigates luck, and builds engines that support further actions. The game combines dice allocation, area control, and resource management as players juggle tactical choices between reclaiming the land and developing long-term capabilities.

    Very chaotic area control game. It heavy depends on your dice rolls and every turn everything can change. So not really strategic. But I liked the different dice functions. And the unique character skills are very unbalanced. I think the one that let's you put a die on another is overpowered.
