FOREST FLOOR
Storyline Campaign
FALL SCENARIO 19:
Forest Full of Flames
It has not rained for some time in the forest. The Forest Floor has become dry from the lack of any moisture. Dead leaves crinkle underfoot. The dry spell finally breaks with a thunderstorm, rolling through dark and intense. A stray lightning bolt strikes a tree and whoosh! The tree bursts into flames. The fire quickly spreads. The rain is not enough to stop the forest fire from spreading, growing, consuming. Red Fox must catch his prey while also avoiding the fire. But beware: the Mountain Lion, seemingly unafraid of fire, has not had a meal in days and is closely following Red Fox’s scent.
Objective
Catch all three rabbits before Mountain Lion completes one cycle around the Forest Floor. You still lose if Mountain Lion catches you.
CHALLENGE
The 2-card gap in the Forest Floor at the start of the game represents the forest fire that is beginning to grow, rapidly! Each turn, before moving Mountain Lion, place (not swap) the indicated card from Forest Fire Chart outside the Forest Floor as pictured in the diagram. Navigate the hazardous terrain to fetch food for the family. Red Fox cannot travel over or through gaps in the Forest Floor.
Peerless peepers:
Mountain Lion can see you through the smoke and fire. Mountain Lion can now capture you through gaps in the Forest Floor, so be careful as you traverse the burning forest.
