Description
In 4 the Birds, you'll need to use a mix of strategy and luck to be the first to get four of your birds together in a tree. The game is easy to learn and plays quickly, with each turn taking just a minute or two. You'll roll two dice to determine where you can place or move your birds on the grid, and you can also use Action Cards to help you outmaneuver your opponents. As you try to build your flock, you'll need to balance your own goals with the need to block your opponents' birds. And watch out for those pesky crows and hawks, which can swoop in and mess up your plans. With its simple rules and fast gameplay, 4 the Birds is a great introduction to abstract strategy games, and it's fun for kids and adults alike.
