Bears!: Trail Mix'd is an expansion for Bears! released in 2015 for 2–4 players, 20 minutes per game, and ages 7 and up. It was designed by Anne-Marie De Witt and its main mechanics are Dice Rolling and Pattern Recognition.
Description from the publisher: Just when you had that bear attack under control, things got all Trail Mix'd! See if you can adapt as the game changes with each roll of the die! Before each round of Bears!, the expansion die is rolled and a new rule is in effect. One round you're scoring double for Runners, the next your rerolls are limited — or maybe you're trying for bonus points by shooting the most bears. Think fast and roll even faster in this ever-changing expansion to Bears!
Bears!: Trail Mix'd supports 2–4 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Bears!: Trail Mix'd is 20 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Bears!: Trail Mix'd for ages 7 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Bears!: Trail Mix'd has a complexity rating of 1.5 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a light game.
