In the most distant reaches of the world, magic still exists, embodied by spirits of the land, of the sky, and of every natural thing. As the great powers of Europe stretch their colonial empires further and further, they will inevitably lay claim to a place where spirits still hold power - and when they do, the land itself will fight back alongside the islanders who live there.

Spirit Island is a complex and thematic cooperative game about defending your island home from colonizing Invaders. Players are different spirits of the land, each with its own unique elemental powers. Every turn, players simultaneously choose which of their power cards to play, paying energy to do so. Using combinations of power cards that match a spirit's elemental affinities can grant free bonus effects. Faster powers take effect immediately, before the Invaders spread and ravage, but other magics are slower, requiring forethought and planning to use effectively. In the Spirit phase, spirits gain energy, and choose how / whether to Grow: to reclaim used power cards, to seek for new power, or to spread presence into new areas of the island.

The Invaders expand across the island map in a semi-predictable fashion. Each turn they explore into some lands (portions of the island); the next turn, they build in those lands, forming settlements and cities. The turn after that, they ravage there, bringing blight to the land and attacking any native islanders present.

The islanders fight back against the Invaders when attacked, and lend the spirits some other aid, but may not always do so exactly as you'd hoped. Some Powers work through the islanders, helping them (eg) drive out the Invaders or clean the land of blight.

The game escalates as it progresses: spirits spread their presence to new parts of the island and seek out new and more potent powers, while the Invaders step up their colonization efforts. Each turn represents 1-3 years of alternate-history.

At game start, winning requires destroying every last settlement and city on the board - but as you frighten the Invaders more and more, victory becomes easier: they'll run away even if some number of settlements or cities remain. Defeat comes if any spirit is destroyed, if the island is overrun by blight, or if the Invader deck is depleted before achieving victory.

The game includes different adversaries to fight against (eg: a Swedish Mining Colony, or a Remote British Colony). Each changes play in different ways, and offers a different path of difficulty boosts to keep the game challenging as you gain skill.

Super happy!!
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
Great seller! The Batman omnibus arrived in perfect condition, and I really appreciate that it was shipped to my location. Even though the delivery took a bit longer than expected, it was completely worth the wait. The paper quality is incredible, and the packaging and overall product quality are excellent. Highly recommended.

Can I be a heretic in this world?
Format: Kindle
This world is fun. This world is interesting. This world would be fascinating to visit. And that also holds true with the characters. Fischer is interesting even as a semi-broken former elite businessman who threw it all away just before getting hit by a truck and thrown into the world. The humble and not-so-humble villagers he meets are perfect foils for him. They never felt like they were nothing but tropes. Yes, Roger's wife is sick and he's grumpy and unwelcoming, but there were depths to it. We learn over time who he is as a husband, father and farmer. All of the other human characters have some backstory even if we don't see it on the pages. Its still clearly reflected in their decisions and actions. And the animal friends of Fischer that slowly gain power and intelligence due to his actions are wonderful. This is a story that was carefully and lovingly crafted and is definitely one of my favorites for the year to date.

Heretical Review
Format: Kindle
Wow, what a fun book! I fell in love with the protagonist on the first page only to have to deal with one of the best plot twists of the genre. Well done. Fischer is a genuinely nice guy. He cares about others, treats them with respect and does not expect that they conform to his world. I love the dopey way he makes his way through life, seemingly unaware of what is going on around him, but trusting his friends to, well, be his friends. We end with a few loose ends, but that happens in a serialization, right? Lots of anime and pop-culture references for the reader to enjoy, along with some deep philosophical moments. Fischer is a deep well. Enjoy the book! Looking forward to book two! Cheers!

It is fantasy but unlike most fantasies. The mystery is what exactly makes this book so addictive.
Format: Kindle
I really enjoyed this book. It is fantasy but unlike most fantasies. So far no armies or mages but a fair amount of what looks like supeernational but accompanied by a voice that announces improvements in a computer like mode. The main character is an Aussie. It's funny, clever and touching. It is not deep but it works. In trying to avoid his previous life in another world, he keeps things light and tries to help thew locals who live in a culture and a political system he doesn't understand. His entire goal is to fish as much as possible in a place where everything related to the ocean is hearsay. I just keep reading. The mystery is what exactly makes this book so addictive. I've read the second and the third is waiting for me. I read on.

fun
Format: Kindle
Fischer was an international billionaire who walked away from it all and met truck-kun. Now he’s in a tropical paradise with a unpowered System, and living his best life as a fisherman. He befriends many people and begins awakening people and animals as cultivators without trying to. Some see him as a hurdle to be removed, but his new friends deal with it without bothering him. In the end Fischer has the friends he’s always wanted and a love interest. This is a good swift, king, slice of life story. There’s loads of humor, great pacing, wonderful narrator, and an interesting world. It reminds me of “Beware of Chicken” in its wholesomeness and enjoyability. I’ve already gone to the next in the series! Please enjoy
