Arbor Falls has been signed to Play to Z Games! This publisher is run by an all-star team and I am thrilled to work with them. The goal is release in Q1 2027.
A sincere thank you to everyone who reached out to me, asking what happened to the project over the last year. I had originally made this board game just for fun but your continued support has inspired me to make it the best it can be.
It’s time for a change, so you move out of the bustling city, to the quiet, small town of Arbor Falls. You set out to collect quirky furniture to decorate your empty home. Along the way, you help your neighbors, meet new people, and clean up the town. Through Calendar Events, meeting visitors at the Inn, using tools from the Community Tool Shed, and achieving Town Tickets, you will have plenty to do. You will fit in with the community so well!
In 8 Hands, players will take simultaneous turns to play poker hands to score points in three ways: for playing unique hand types, having the highest ranked hands of each type, and the best hand in a round. They will use Modifier cards to affect playing cards, enabling players to create challenging poker hands or surpass opponents' hands. With mechanisms of do-and-write, simple card manipulation, king of the hill, and a basic understanding of poker hands, the teach is 5 minutes.
