Something has changed in Renature valley: mushrooms are suddenly shooting up everywhere, completely changing the way the game is played! A mushroom allows areas to be connected and enlarged, allowing another player to take over an area! Transform the polluted valley back into an intact ecosystem, let the animals move in again, and plant adjacent areas to get points. Use the advantages that the mushrooms bring to expand individual areas with their help or join areas occupied by other players. While Renature is challenging, it gets even trickier in Renature Valley. CONTENTS: 1 double-sided game board 8 Mushroom tokens 2 Cloud tokens -description from publisher's website
