Nekonyancer[img]https://x.boardgamearena.net/data/tutorials/img67c6daab128fe7.08432323.jpg[/img] The spirits of Summer and Winter are both striving to save the sacred forest and be recognized as its ultimate protector. Although their goals are similar, only one season will claim the honors. [green][tip] This tutorial is best viewed on a computer![/green]1maintitlebar_content

NekonyancerIn *Living Forest: Duel,* two players will enlist the aid of guardian animals to plant trees and extinguish the flames of Onibi! In addition to making a player stronger, all the actions in the game will contribute toward a different victory condition. [green]The first player to fulfill one of four victory conditions wins the game![/green]2maintitlebar_content

Nekonyancer[blue]On our turn, we must perform one of two possible actions:[/blue] • Reveal a guardian animal card from the shared draw deck and place it in the help line. OR • Place an action token to use a row of elements. [green]We'll start by learning about guardian animals and the help line![/green]3maintitlebar_content

NekonyancerThis is the [red]*shared draw pile!*[/red] Whenever a guardian animal card is drawn from it, it is added to the [blue]*shared help line.*[/blue]4lfd_commonDraw_item_16

NekonyancerLet's try it! *Click on the [red]draw pile[/red] or on [blue]"Reveal a guardian animal"[/blue] at the top!*5lfd_commonDraw_item_16

NekonyancerOkay, now our opponent will take a turn!1lfd_commonHelpLine_item_30

NekonyancerThey drew another guardian animal, so now it's our turn again. But before we act, let's learn more about what these animals do! Each animal has 1-4 icons on it, indicating what *elements* it provides for players. There are four types: [red]sun,[/red] [blue]water,[/blue][green] plant,[/green] and *wind.*1lfd_commonHelpLine_item_41

NekonyancerFor example, this [red]*anteater*[/red] provides 2 sun elements and 1 wind element.2lfd_commonHelpLine_item_31

NekonyancerAt the end of the help line, BGA keeps running totals of all the elements provided by all the animals in the line. For instance, the four animals in the line currently provide a total of [blue]*3 water elements.*[/blue]3lfd_helpResourcePanel_3_item_3

NekonyancerWhen a player uses an *action token,* they can use all the provided elements of a single type to perform the corresponding kind of action. Hmm... I don't think we should use one yet. There aren't quite enough elements in the help line yet. *Reveal another animal!*4lfd_commonDraw_item_14

NekonyancerOur opponent revealed yet another animal. *Wow!* There are a lot of sun elements now! We'd better take them before our opponent does! *Click on the [red]row of sun elements[/red] or on [blue]"Recruit guardian animals"[/blue] at the top!*1lfd_commonHelpLine_item_36

Nekonyancer*Great!* We placed an action token on the line, pointing to the kind of element we decided to use (sun). Sun elements allow us to recruit new guardian animals from the [blue]*recruitment line.*[/blue]2lfd_recruitmentLine_item_70

NekonyancerAt the beginning of the game, the recruitment line always contains [green]*3 summer animals*[/green] and [blue]*3 winter animals,*[/blue] with the neutral *stag* in the middle. Summer animals will only aid the summer player. Winter animals will only aid the winter player. The stag, like all the neutral animals in the starting deck, will help both players.3lfd_recruitmentLine_item_40

NekonyancerWe're playing as the spirit of summer, so we should recruit a summer animal. Each animal's cost in sun elements is shown in the bottom-right corner. We have 9 sun elements at our disposal, which is just enough for this [red]*Axolotl.*[/red]4lfd_recruitmentLine_item_53

NekonyancerLet's recruit it! *Select the [red]Axolotl.[/red] Then click on [blue]"Recruit guardian animals"[/blue] at the top.*5lfd_recruitmentLine_item_53

Nekonyancer*Good!* Whenever a player recruits animals of their own season, the animals are moved to the player's [red]*personal line,*[/red] which you'll probably have to scroll down to see. [img]https://x.boardgamearena.net/data/tutorials/img67c6daac4ebcf0.45394641.jpg[/img] It will provide elements *just for us* until the end of the round.1maintitlebar_content

NekonyancerSince we are the summer player, we replaced the Axolotl with a new card from the [red]*summer deck.*[/red]2lfd_summerDraw_item_11

NekonyancerOkay, now our opponent will go again. But before they do, take a look at help line again. BGA placed *Xs* on all the sun elements to the left of our action token. The running total of sun elements is now *0!* [img]https://x.boardgamearena.net/data/tutorials/img67c6daad8b8cf7.67009817.jpg[/img] [blue]Our opponent missed their chance to use them![/blue]3lfd_commonHelpLine_item_36

NekonyancerOur opponent simply drew another card for their turn. The new animal provides 1 sun and 1 wind, so the [red]*running total*[/red] of sun elements is back up to 1. Since there's a new sun element in the line, our opponent can now take the sun action if they want. They wouldn't be able to do anything with just 1 element though.1lfd_commonHelpLine_item_25

NekonyancerFor us, there's another restriction. We cannot place another token on the same row of elements unless there's another unused element *between* the ones our arrows are pointing to. Here's an example from the rulebook: [img]https://x.boardgamearena.net/data/tutorials/img67c6dab3ca4243.92113522.jpg[/img] In simpler terms, we can't use two in a row.2lfd_commonHelpLine_item_25

NekonyancerLet's use our other action token on *wind.* The running total of wind elements is only [red]*3*[/red] right now, but if you look at the top, it says we can advance Onibi with [blue]*5!*[/blue] That's because the Axolotl we recruited is providing 2 extra wind elements!3lfd_commonHelpLine_item_25

NekonyancerIn a normal game, you'd be able to click on the [red]*row of wind elements*[/red] to take the action, but it doesn't feel like cooperating in Tutorial mode. Oh well. [blue]*This button*[/blue] does the same thing. *Click on [blue]"Advance Onibi."[/blue]*4actAdvanceOnibi-btn

Nekonyancer*Good!* This is [red]*Onibi,*[/red] the evil spirit of fire. It always starts each game in the middle of a row of 7 cards, which are called [blue]*the clearing.*[/blue]1lfd_glade_item_3_item_1

NekonyancerWe can use wind elements to *blow* Onibi away from us and toward our opponent. We're the summer player, and the left side of the clearing is the summer side, so we can only blow Onibi to the *right,* as indicated by the [red]jumping red arrows.[/red]2lfd_glade_item_3_item_1

NekonyancerIn this case, we have 5 wind elements, so we can move Onibi up to 5 cards to the right. Whenever Onibi is blown off one side of the clearing, it reappears at the other side. After we move Onibi to a card, we'll trigger that card's *bonus action.*3lfd_glade_item_3

NekonyancerMoving to *this card* will only use *4* movement, but I want that particular action! *Move Onibi here!*4lfd_glade_item_0

Nekonyancer*Great!* When we moved Onibi off our opponent's side of the clearing, BGA gave them the *Onibi card.* [img]https://x.boardgamearena.net/data/tutorials/img67c6daae9a31c5.64403585.jpg[/img] Guardian animals that belong to the player with the Onibi card are placed in the *shared help line* instead of their *personal line.*1maintitlebar_content

NekonyancerIn other words, since our opponent has the *Onibi card* now, we can benefit from guardian animals that would normally only help the winter player! [blue]Too bad they haven't recruited any yet.[/blue] ^_^; BGA put a marker on the draw deck to remind players of this anyway.3lfd_commonDraw_item_11

NekonyancerThat's not all! If we blow Onibi off the right side *again* while they still have the Onibi card, we'll [green]instantly win the game![/green] Our opponent probably won't let that happen. If they blow Onibi off the *left* side of the clearing, they can return the Onibi card to the supply.4maintitlebar_content

NekonyancerNext, take a look at the icon on the card we moved Onibi to. [img]https://x.boardgamearena.net/data/tutorials/img67c6daaf94bd87.46013853.jpg[/img] It's a *Sanki* icon! It allowed us to draw 1 *Sanki card* from the supply.5lfd_glade_item_0_fireStock

NekonyancerAs you can see, we now have 1 Sanki card in our [red]*inventory.*[/red] There are two left in the [blue]*supply.*[/blue] If we trigger a Sanki bonus action when there aren't any Sanki cards in the supply, we'll steal one from our opponent instead.6lfd_playerCard_sankiCards_11941354

Nekonyancer[blue]Each Sanki card can be used to...[/blue] • Destroy a fire varan when it appears (more on fire varans later) *OR* • Use one of our action tokens immediately after we reveal a card.7lfd_sankiCards_item_97

NekonyancerWe've used both of our action tokens now, so [red]we're out of the round![/red] BGA will automatically *skip* all our turns until our opponent uses both of their action tokens too.8lfd_playerTokens_11941354

NekonyancerBut since we can't do anything anymore, what's stopping our opponent from drawing the [blue]*entire deck*[/blue] and taking actions with a hundred elements?9lfd_commonDraw_item_11

Nekonyancer*Solitary animals.* [img]https://x.boardgamearena.net/data/tutorials/img67c6dab09449a7.56553821.jpg[/img] Animals with this icon in the top-left corner are *solitary.* There are six solitary animals mixed into the shared deck. Well, five now, since one was already drawn.10lfd_commonHelpLine_item_30

NekonyancerWhen the *third* solitary animal is revealed, each player that still has action tokens must discard one, unused! The same goes for the *fourth* solitary animal, if we get that far!11lfd_commonHelpLine_item_30

Nekonyancer[red]*Some animals*[/red] have white circles instead of black ones, marking them as *gregarious.* They are basically the opposite of *solitary* animals. Each gregarious icon will nullify one solitary icon, pulling us back from that 3-solitary-icon limit!12lfd_recruitmentLine_item_40

NekonyancerOur opponent just placed an action token on the row of [green]*plant elements*[/green] so they can plant protective trees. I'll explain how they work later, when we have a chance to perform the action ourselves.1lfd_commonHelpLine_actionType_tree

NekonyancerThey're using their other action on the row of [blue]*water elements*[/blue] to extinguish flames! Again, I'll explain more later.1lfd_commonHelpLine_actionType_water

NekonyancerAt this point, both of us have used all our action tokens, so the round is over! At the end of each round, BGA will automatically go through *four steps.* [red]*Step 1: Onibi attacks!*[/red]2maintitlebar_content

NekonyancerBGA will total the values of all the clearing cards that are [red]*on fire,*[/red] which means they have a flame token on them. The card with Onibi on it counts as on fire as well, even though Onibi cannot be extinguished. Since our opponent extinguished a couple flames, there's only [red]*one card*[/red] that's on fire right now. Its value is *4.*3lfd_glade_item_0

NekonyancerThen, BGA will compare that total against each player's available water elements. Our opponent drained all the water elements in the [blue]*help line*[/blue] with their last action, but we still have *2* water elements, thanks to the *axolotl* in our personal line. [img]https://x.boardgamearena.net/data/tutorials/img67c6dab1894e57.63150664.jpg[/img]4maintitlebar_content

NekonyancerIf the strength of the fire is greater than a player's available water elements, BGA places one [red]*personal fire varan card*[/red] into the discard pile for each clearing card that is currently on fire.5lfd_summerVaranDraw_item_86

Nekonyancer[blue]So, in this case...[/blue] [red]Total strength of fire = 4.[/red] [blue]Our water elements = 2.[/blue] 4 > 2. *One* clearing card is on fire, so BGA will put one of our fire varan cards in the discard pile. It will cause trouble for us later!6lfd_summerVaranDraw_item_86

Nekonyancer[red]*Step 2: Onibi's flames spread!*[/red]---If a card adjacent to Onibi does not already have a flame token on it, BGA places a token on it. In this case, [red]*these two cards*[/red] will each receive a flame token (the edges of the clearing wrap around).7lfd_glade_item_1

Nekonyancer[blue]*Step 3: Retrieve action tokens.*[/blue]---Each player will take their two action tokens back from the help line.8lfd_commonHelpLine_item_34

Nekonyancer[blue]*Step 4: Discard*[/blue]---All cards in the help line and in the players' personal help lines (like our Axolotl) are *discarded.*9lfd_commonDiscard_item_89

Nekonyancer[green]Okay, the next round has begun![/green] It's our turn, and there aren't any animals in the help line yet. That means we can't use an action token yet - there's nothing for our tokens to point to! Since our only option is to reveal a guardian animal, BGA will go ahead and do it, basically taking our turn for us.10lfd_commonHelpLine_wrap

NekonyancerThere's a new option at the top! As I mentioned before, *Sanki* cards can be used to use an action token immediately after revealing a card. BGA is giving us that option now! We're obviously not going to use one now - the help line needs more time to build up more elements. *Click on [red]"Do not use Sanki card."[/red]*11actDoNotUseSankiCard-btn

NekonyancerOur opponent revealed an animal. Our turn! [blue]*Reveal a guardian animal...*[/blue]1lfd_commonDraw_item_8

Nekonyancer[blue]*Reveal again...*[/blue]1lfd_commonDraw_item_6

NekonyancerUh-oh! There are [red]*3 solitary animals*[/red] in the help line now! Each player had to discard one of their action tokens.1lfd_commonHelpLine_item_37

NekonyancerThere are five plant elements in the help line now. That's good enough. *Click on the [green]plant row[/green] or on [green]"Plant trees with 5"[/green] at the top!*1lfd_commonHelpLine_actionType_tree

NekonyancerPlant elements allow us to plant protective trees in our personal forest. There are [green]*four piles*[/green] of tree cards. Each card has... • A cost in plant elements in the bottom-right corner. • A sign in the top-left corner, showing what element it will permanently provide for us.1lfd_trees_wind_item_13

NekonyancerIf you scroll down a little further, you'll find our *personal forest.* We started the game with a single protective tree in our forest. It's in the middle of a [blue]*lake,*[/blue] with rivers extending in every direction. Whenever we add a protective tree to our forest, the river on the new card must connect to our lake.2lfd_summerTreeContainer_4_item_0

NekonyancerLet's try it! *Select the indicated tree.* BGA should now show all the possible locations where we can plant it, as determined by the rivers on the card. *Place the card above our lake.* *Click on the ✅ or on [blue]"Validate tree placement"[/blue] at the top.*3player_name_11941354

Nekonyancer*Great!* That used up 3 plant elements, but we still have 2 more. Note that the next card in the pile we took from is [red]*face down.*[/red] If we plant multiple trees in a single turn, they must come from different piles.1lfd_trees_wind_item_back_324

NekonyancerLuckily, the tree in the left pile only costs 2 elements! *Select the tree. Place it to the right of the last one we placed.* It should look like this: [img]https://x.boardgamearena.net/data/tutorials/img67c6dab2971076.67647891.jpg[/img] [blue]*✅ Validate!*[/blue]2player_name_11941354

Nekonyancer*Excellent!* Thanks to these trees, we now have a permanent +1 sun element and +1 wind element! There is no limit to how far our forest can extend in any direction. If we make a *3x3 square* of protective trees, [green]we'll immediately win the game![/green] Our starting tree does not have to be in the square.1lfd_summerTreeContainer_6_item_2

NekonyancerAlso, did you notice that there's half of an *icon* on each edge of each tree card? When we place trees next to each other so that those icons *match,* we can take whatever action is shown! [blue]In this case, we matched two water icons, so we can immediately extinguish some flames![/blue]3lfd_summerTreeContainer_6_item_2

Nekonyancer*Scroll up to the top!* The extinguish flames action uses [blue]water elements.[/blue] We currently have 6 water elements at our disposal, all of which are coming from the [red]*shared help line.*[/red] Too bad we don't have our axolotl anymore - we would have even more. The cost to extinguish each flame depends on the card it's on.4lfd_glade_item_6_fireStock

NekonyancerThis [blue]*card*[/blue] has a *3* on it, so it will cost *3* water elements to extinguish the flame on it. The [red]*other one*[/red] will cost *4.* Again, we can't extinguish Onibi itself. All we can do is blow it around with wind.5lfd_glade_item_1

Nekonyancer*Select [red]this flame.[/red]* *Click on [blue]"Extinguish fire"[/blue] at the top!*6lfd_glade_item_6

NekonyancerThe flame token went into our [red]*inventory.*[/red] If we collect *8* flame tokens, [green]we'll immediately win the game![/green]1lfd_playerData_fireData_11941354

NekonyancerNote that the [green]*plant elements*[/green] have been reset to 0, but the [blue]*water elements*[/blue] are still at 6! That's because we didn't place an action token on the water row! The same thing applies to bonus actions in [red]*clearing.*[/red] If we place a token on wind and blow onibi a few cards over to trigger a sun action, wind will be used up, not sun!2lfd_commonHelpLine_item_37

NekonyancerOne last thing about protective trees. It is possible to *cover* an old tree with a new one. We would lose the permanent element provided by the old tree, but if you're desperate to trigger a specific bonus action again, it can be worth it!3lfd_trees_wind_item_15

NekonyancerOur opponent just did something strange. They used sun elements to recruit *summer animals.* When players recruit animals of the opposing season, they are sent straight to the discard pile. Again, when those animals show up in the help line, they'll only help us, the summer player. [red]So why did our opponent recruit them?[/red]1lfd_recruitmentLine_item_72

Nekonyancer[green]Because of the last victory condition.[/green] Since the *winter player* bought these cards, the slots were refilled with [blue]*winter animals.*[/blue] *5* of the *7* animals in the recruitment line now belong to winter. If the recruitment line contains only cards of one season, [green]that player will immediately win![/green]2lfd_recruitmentLine_item_72

NekonyancerI've shown you almost everything. Here's a quick recap of the [red]actions[/red] and [green]victory conditions:[/green] *Sun:* [red]recruit new guardian animals.[/red] [green]All animals in the line belong to 1 season.[/green] *Water:* [red]Extinguish flames.[/red] [green]Extinguish 8 flames.[/green] *Plant:* [red]Plant protective trees.[/red] [green]Make a 3x3 square.[/green] *Wind:* [red]Blow Onibi away.[/red] [green]Blow it off the opponent's edge while they have the Onibi card.[/green]3maintitlebar_content

NekonyancerThere's just one last thing I want you to see! [blue]I'll skip ahead a couple turns...[/blue]4maintitlebar_content

NekonyancerOur opponent is about to reveal the last card in the draw pile! *Watch!*1lfd_commonDraw_item_1

NekonyancerWhen they did, the contents of the discard pile were shuffled to become the new draw pile! Remember, it includes all the new animals that we bought from the recruitment line and several fire varans!1lfd_commonDraw_item_21

NekonyancerRemember, if one of our summer animals is drawn from the deck, it will go to our *personal line* (where the axolotl went earlier), not to the shared line. It does not matter *who* draws the card - the result is the same. If someone draws a winter animal though, it will still go to the shared line. Again, that's because the winter player is currently cursed with the *Onibi card!*2lfd_commonDraw_item_21

NekonyancerLet's draw another guardian animal! With any luck, we'll draw one of our new friends! *Click on the [red]draw pile[/red] or on [blue]"Reveal a guardian animal."[/blue]*1lfd_commonDraw_item_21

Nekonyancer*Oh no!* If you *scroll down* a little, you'll see that we drew one of the summer fire varans! Fire varans always go directly to their owner's [red]*personal line,*[/red] regardless of who drew them. It has a *solitary icon* on it, and it only affects us. There's another solitary icon in the shared line. If one more is drawn, we'll have to discard an action token!1maintitlebar_content

NekonyancerLuckily, we have a *Sanki* card! We can use it to *permanently* discard the fire varan! !!! This can only be done *immediately* after the varan is drawn. It can be done regardless of who drew the varan. *Click on [blue]"Use Sanki Card."[/blue]*2actUseSankiCard-btn

Nekonyancer*Click on [blue]"Remove a varan!"[/blue]*1actRemoveVaran-btn

NekonyancerGood riddance! [blue]Okay, that's everything! You're ready for your first game![/blue]2lfd_summerVaranDraw_item_86

About Board Game Arena Premium

Board Game Arena's main goal is to promote board games to a large audience. This is the reason why the service is free for everyone.

As you can imagine, this website needs a lot of time and some money to keep things running smoothly. Some players are helping us with contributions or through donations. This website can only exist because of the help from these players, and to thank them we make them Premium members.
