Fall is an atmospheric two-player board game from publisher Happy Meeple Games, in which you and your opponent grow a shared autumn forest while secretly pursuing completely different hidden scoring objectives.
How to play the game?
In Fall, both players work on a single central forest board. Each round, you draft combinations of Leaf tiles and tokens, then place them into the shared grid to expand the woodland and support its flora, fauna and funga. Animals and mushrooms spread across the forest, but every player scores points in their own unique way, according to secret Fox, Bird and Flower objective cards. These scoring conditions remain hidden until the end of the game, when they are finally revealed and the full impact of each placement becomes clear, turning what seemed like collaboration into a tense duel of subtle priorities.
Why is this game a must-play?
Fall offers a clever, low-rules duel that still delivers a satisfying level of depth. It is quick to teach, wonderfully thematic and ideal for couples or friends who enjoy puzzly two-player games with strong interaction rather than solitaire engine-building.
