Everdell: Mistwood
Lurking in the depths of Everdell: Mistwood, the cunning and villainous Nightweave plots to take over Everdell with the aid of her spiderlings. Pit your wits against Nightweave and her sticky schemes in solo or two-player games, and recruit heroes of yore from the More Legends and Corrin Evertail expansion packs as well as transform your farms with our new Through Every Season expansion pack!
Gameplay
This expansion mainly functions as a Solo game mode. Though you can use the components to add a player bot to your two player game.
Nightweave, the bot, is essentially a big critter meeple with a past. In fact, Mistwood includes eight personality cards for Nightweave. The personality cards and plans/plots cards have different game conditions to consider related to her placement in the Meadow. Do I want to take this card knowing that it will lead to consequences such as losing resources or giving her additional points?
Summarised
Everdell: Mistwood succeeds where a lot of solo modes fail. This expansion feels like you’re actually playing a seasoned Everdell player. The activity cards seemed timed to what a human player would do. Spider meeples block the best spaces, take your worker spaces on the red cards in your city, and force you to consider the timing of your actions because the activity cards are so unpredictable. Nightweave and her minions do change the mechanics of the game enough to make Mistwood feel like a unique gaming experience. It’s not a solo mode, it’s a game in and of itself.
The base game is needed to play Everdell: Mistwood. Other expansions can be found here, here and here.
