#41: The Grimm Forest
https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/212402/grimm-forest
Year released: 2018
Placement on last year's list: n/a

In the Grimm Forest each player is an ancestor of the three little pigs. The goal of the game is to build houses made of straw, wood, and brick. There are 4 locations full of resources and each player has a hand of cards consisting of the locations. Every round players will play a card and all reveal at the same time where they went. If one player is at a location alone, they get all of the resources there. If multiple people go to the same spot, they have to evenly divide them. There are some "take that" cards where you can do things like send monsters to locations that do bad things to the players who went there. You can also get friend cards who give you a special ability throughout the game. Each player can only have one though, so if you get a second one you can replace your old one or give it to somebody else and force them to keep it, which makes them lose their current one.

This game looks really nice too. It has great components, nice miniatures (my girlfriend painted mine for me), and a Game Trayz insert. It's all a really nice production.

It's kinda coincidental how like in most games pigs are evil.
