It's the time of the Summer Solstice in the small town of Crossing. Soon Life Stones will begin to appear on the mushrooms in the surrounding fields and forests. Representatives from six different races will descend on Crossing in a battle of wits and timing to gain stones and glory for their people. Each round, players square off in a duel. You can grab Life Stones from mushrooms as they appear or steal Stones from your opponents' stash. But be careful! If you don't protect your own Stones they can be stolen as well. All players choose their action at the same time, so choose wisely! CONTENTS: 6 character tiles, 5 mushroom tiles, 60 Life Stones (18red, 18 yellow, 18 blue, 6 white), 1 bag, 1rulebook.

Fun little filler game
This is a fun little filler game for my family and friends when we game. The rules are quick and easy and rounds go by fast. Plenty of laughs and entertainment. Fast, fun, easy to learn kids and adults of any age will enjoy. This is great as a kids game or filler for board game night with a more serious bunch to relax and laugh.4* due to overly complicated rules. I’ll summarize the game for you for context before trying to read through what’s in the box.Gameplay is simple: Basically you point to the mushroom with the gems you want, or those of someone else. As mushrooms are cleared of their gems, replenish from the gem bag. Gems are worth points at the end based on gem sets (ex. 1 of each make a set, or 3 blues) and individuals As +1. If no one else points To the same mushroom you did, they’re yours, add them to the cache in front of you. If it’s a persons cache of gems you point to and they block it (cover the cache vs point to a mushroom or another players cache) they can save those Gems, moving them out of play and securing their points. Alternatively if they do not block and cover, you can score a massive hoard for yourself, just be sure to hold onto it (following the same cover mechanism as above)! The only way to fully secure your acquired gems is to successfully block the incoming swipers rather than trying to obtain more gems from the mushrooms.The gems are good quality. The artwork is nice if a little cartoony and fun but also part of the reason I bought it. Colors are beautiful and I’m a fan of fantasy themes. Highly recommend.

Very simple but fun game
This is basically a zero skill game. My children ages 7 and 5 LOVE it and ask to play it often. It's also a quick and easily portable game so it's great for on the go.

Fun Quick Game!
Purchased Dec 2019 from Sold by: Amazon.com Services LLCWe really like this game. The only stratagy you need is Cover your own gems or choose a circle/player to pick that has the gems you can use for points at the end of the game. You also kinda need to read the other players to see what they seem to be eyeing and will maybe pick. You don't want to pick what they will pick or you don't get any gems.Super fun, quick and simple.

Great game, definitely recommend!
This is a truly fabulous little game. As a filler for adult game night, it brings a lot of laughs. Everyone understands how to play in about 30 seconds too, which you can’t beat. And it scales really well from 3 to 6 players.We also tried this out with modified rules for our daughters (ages 3 and 5). Modified rule is Most Jewels wins. They instantly got it, and we all play a few rounds almost every night.For less than $15, you can’t beat what this game brings. We own a lot of heavy euro games as well as party games and family games, and this is perfect for both of those last two collections!

Juego fácil con votaciones contínuas
El objetivo del juego es hacerse de la mayor cantidad de sets de piedras, apuntando a las setas al centro o las de otros jugadores. Si bien el juego viene en inglés, es sencillo e independiente del idioma, por lo que bastaría que alguien se aprenda las reglas y las explique al resto del grupo.Los jugadores señalarán una seta y tomar las piedras que se encuentran en ella; las que ha juntado algún otro jugador y robárselas; o cubrir las propias para perder un turno pero asegurar que esas piedras no se las robe algún otro jugador (si se toma esta acción, se sabotea el intento de robo por parte de otros jugadores).Hay mucha negociación previo a la etapa de votación para decidir quien va sobre que setas, aunque no siempre los jugadores respetan lo acordado (cabe señalar que no hay una obligación a hacerlo).El único inconveniente que le vi, es que la caja que venía mostrada en las fotos no es la que me llegó, ya que la caja que recibí no tiene la forma de libro como la que se muestra.

Juegirijillo divertirijillo
Un juego muy simple con un toque de apuestas. Ciertamente es para todas las edades, lo he jugado con niños, adultos y ambos. Siempre me ha hecho pasar un buen rato. Es bueno para iniciar otros juegos más complicados ya que solo da para jugar unas tres o cuatro partidas. Pero no piensen que por eso ya no lo van a jugar más, al contrario.Un detalle es que la presentación de la caja no es como la de la foto (con forma de libro), sino una caja convencional, pero no le quita nada, ya que la calidad de los componentes es excelente.Las instrucciones están en inglés, pero las reglas son súper sencillas.
