My Lil’ Everdell Overview
My Lil’ Everdell is a competitive game about scoring points. Each player wants to have the most points by the end of the game. Points are scored by first collecting resources in the form of twigs, berries, and resin, then spending them on cards to add to your treehouse.
These cards will give you more things to do on your turn. generate additional resources, score points, and more. By collecting specific combinations of cards, players can also collect Parades, which offer even up more points.

Overall Review
If the game sounds simple, that’s because it is. Clearly, the game is geared toward a younger audience. But that does not mean it is any less enjoyable. It’s actually a really solid engine builder game and an excellent introduction to the mechanic for anyone who is new to it.
Gamers who are used to weighing the pros and cons of spending your Putrillium Ore on upgrading your Xythonian Cruiser for the long-term gain or feeding your Crydonin Eternal Worm for the obvious short-term benefits might find themselves underwhelmed.
But, if you’re looking for a game without high stakes, and would go great in either a cozy cabin or a sunny afternoon, My Lil’ Everdell could be just what you need.
Oh hey! BoLS might make a little money if you decide to buy this items.
