Slumber cards – Represented by a red exclamation mark, these spaces instruct players to draw and resolve the top tile from the slumber deck.There are a number of unique spaces and a few common ones whose function could be considered a spoiler. The team will move one space at a time one space at a time and immediately resolving the icons on the space before moving on. Players explore the overworld by moving a single miniature that represents the whole team. For ease of explanation of our readers, I’ll be referring to these as the “overworld” and “dreamscape” from here on out. There’s the dream-world map where players wander through an overworld comprised of up to eight map tiles placed at the bottom of the board and at the top of the board is the dreamscape map. Throughout the campaign, players will experience Etherfields in two different areas of the dream-world. To solve the mystery and escape from the trappings of the dream-world’s ever shifting logic, players will need to stretch their minds and look at the world in a whole new way. Players take on the role of four characters (Free Spirit, Gambler, Tough Guy or Specialist) who find themselves trapped in a dream-world, unable to wake up or recall who they are. While I’m disappointed in my decision not to back the game earlier, I’m thrilled with the time I’ve spent with Etherfields.Įtherfields throws players into the middle of an illogical dream-world where wandering illogical pathways is the easy part. Thankfully for me and unfortunately for my wallet, I was able to find a copy on the second hand market. Etherfields is the newest AR team and I must say that I was enough of a fool to skip it during the crowdfunding campaign and even listed that decision as my greatest gaming disappointment of the year. From Lords of Hellas to Tainted Grailand Nemesis, Awaken Realms has managed to consistently produce beautiful games year after year that have managed to stay on our shelves through many purges. But one success after another has made them an industry powerhouse that’s even taken the next step of launching Gamefound, the industry’s first true Kickstarter competitor. Awaken Realms launched their first few games through Kickstarter as a small company dependent on crowdfunding in order to create their board game projects.
