Life in the forest is a lot of fun, at least while the sun is shining and the leaves are on the trees. Those days don't last forever though, and long before the weather starts to change, the wise animals start to harvest for the long cold winter ahead. You will spend many months tucked into your burrow and you want to make it as cozy as possible. A nice bowl of soup, a comfortable rocking chair, and some toys and games will go a long way to make those dark winter days pass by quickly.

In Creature Comforts, you spend the Spring, Summer, and Fall gathering different goods from the forest and spending them to collect items that will make your home more inviting while the world outside is covered in a layer of snow. Each round you send family members out to various locations in an attempt to gain supplies. If they fall short of their goal, they'll learn a lesson and be better prepared next time. The family that has created the most comfortable den wins the game.

Something delicious is cooking up in the kitchen, and as a talented chef, it's up to you to carefully carve up the right ingredients and turn them into culinary masterpieces. Prepare a wide variety of recipes from around the world, and hype them up to earn extra praise!

In Diced Veggies you take turns with the cleaver, slicing ingredient dice away from the shared chopping block and assigning them to the recipes you're working on. This unique resource-gathering mechanism is the key to your scrumptious success. The particular veggies that your recipes require isn't your only consideration... you can only take a limited number of pips with each chop, and the right dice values can unlock all sorts of drool-worthy Hypes to boost a recipe's score! A clever cleaver is all you need to whip up delicious recipes in this dice-slicing game for up to four chefs!

You're not the only sushi chef in the kitchen, and space is limited! Compete with the other chefs to prepare your own scrumptious creations on the crowded board. By the end of the night, will you prove that you're the champion chef?

On the day when the last snowflake of winter has melted away, all of the critters emerge from their cozy homes to celebrate... and that day is today! Maple Valley's annual Spring Festival is a gathering of friends welcoming the warm months ahead, and you don't have a lot of time to prepare! While the adults get the village into shape, the youngest (and swiftest) forest animals from each den are sent scrambling through the blossoming woods, completing the last-second tasks that will make the Festival a success. The trails aren't always clear; you'll need to climb, swim, and dig your way to the most bountiful groves, forage for fresh spring ingredients to help villagers complete their errands, and unearth curiosities that will attract skillful scouts to your growing team.

The sun will set before you know it; will it be your hard work that makes this year's Festival the best one ever? Set in the delightful world of Creature Comforts, Maple Valley is a game of traveling trails, finding friends, and celebrating new beginnings for 1-5 critters.

The Roaming Raven Mini-Expansion includes: 1 Wooden and screened Raven bit and 1 rules card. The Feathered Friends Mini-Expansion includes: 10 Feathered Friend cards, 12 Wooden and screened feathers and 1 rules card.
