Set up the game as usual, with the following changes:

- Use only **one winter card**, shuffled with the last 10 cards of the draw pile. 
- Draw 6 cards into your hand and take **Cave 3**. In solo play, Cave 3 is always used, and its effect is resolved before the game begins. 
- Shuffle the 20 Automa cards to form a face-down Automa deck. 
- Choose a challenge and decide which medal level to aim for: **bronze, silver, or gold.** This determines your goal and minimum score. 
- You always take the first turn.

The Forest Shuffle Prototype is now being used for internal tests of the Forest Shuffle: Smoky Mountains Expansion.

Ocoee River is an expansion for Forest Shuffle: Smoky Mountains

It includes 57 new cards, including: 8 trees, 12 rivers, split cards (18 top/bottom and 12 left/right), and 7 special caves.

The Shortleaf Pine introduces a new tree species and, with it, a new tree symbol.

Game Set Up

  • The base game and expansion cards are shuffled together. Then, depending on the player count, a certain number of cards are returned to the box unseen:
    • with 2 players 70 cards
    • with 3 players 40 cards
    • with 4 players 25 cards
    • with 5 players 10 cards
  • As is customary in the base game, all players receive a standard cave at the start of the game. In addition, the 7 special caves are laid out above the clearing. Each cave shows a condition, an effect (instant or permanent) and an additional scoring value.

Game Rules

The rules of Forest Shuffle: Smoky Mountains also apply to this expansion. There is a rule adjustment due to the new cave cards.

Exactly once during the game, you may choose a special cave whose condition you fulfill and replace your standard cave with it, instead of performing your usual action (draw 2 cards or play 1 card). If the cave has an instant effect, it is carried out immediately; if it has a permanent effect, it is carried out whenever the condition is met. The additional score is taken into account during cave scoring.

You may take a special cave only once during the entire game; if you have already taken a cave, the other caves are no longer available to you.
