About the game

Acornism (ドングリシュギ) is a family friendly tile placement puzzle game with easy to grasp rules but deep strategy. Surround the forest animals with the amount of acorns they need. When the total number of acorns on all four sides of the forest animal adds up to the number on the animal tile, the animal is full and leaves the forest. Place a fallen leaf onto the space of the animal to score points. When no players are able to place more tiles, the game ends. Each player adds the score for each animal tile he has won. The player with the highest score wins.
