After having played Parks and Wingspan, I was drawn to this as another outdoor themed game and it was not expensive at US$25. At first opening, the materials felt a bit cheap in quality, but not bad. Looking through the cards they seemed dry for flavor (compared to games like Parks or Wingspan) with just actions and points, no flavor text or attempts at humor.

The first setup experience was not very complicated and the board has nine tiles that can be randomly placed to good variation between sessions. 3 of the 7 activity themes are chosen during setup for more variation.

Once the game gets going, it’s quick to play with lots of agency (could trigger a little analysis paralysis). The card stacks offer many ways to either draw cards to add or swap to a players hand or their deck or move the player along one of three activity paths. Along the way there are badges (for points), movement bonuses and card opportunities. Scoring all the points at the end of the game is a just a little tedious compared to games with a point track, but not unbearable. This game was worth the money spent and I look forward to playing again!
