Forest Shuffle: Dartmoor

Players create a moorland and heathland landscape by placing cards that represent trees, shrubs, and new horizontal terrain features such as bogs, streams, and peat areas. Species are attracted to those placements by playing dweller cards or using card halves, with placement restrictions based on terrain (some animals avoid bogs or stay off rivulets). Players draw or draft cards, pay costs by discarding, and add cards to their tableau to build ecologically balanced habitats and score bonuses. The deck includes face-down bogs and drafted cave cards that give asymmetric starts, while adjustments to symbol counts change how bonuses are achieved. The highest total score at game end determines the winner.
