GN4G: "Its your turn" Spirit Island

Hey Boardgames.... In this episode myself, Mark and Jerry play another must play game from the BGG top 100 that either myself , Mark or Jerry or any of us haven’t played yet. We also have the now famous obligatory Bantz and this time we talk about mark being naked and Jerry’s massive axe!!!!! We also played a cracker of a game....Spirit Island. Spirit Island is a complex and thematic cooperative game about defending your island home from colonizing Invaders. Players are different spirits of the land, each with its own unique elemental powers. Every turn, players simultaneously choose which of their power cards to play, paying energy to do so. Using combinations of power cards that match a spirit's elemental affinities can grant free bonus effects. Faster powers take effect immediately, before the Invaders spread and ravage, but other magics are slower, requiring forethought and planning to use effectively. In the Spirit phase, spirits gain energy, and choose how / whether to Grow: to reclaim used power cards, to seek for new power, or to spread presence into new areas of the island. It’s a very enjoyable co-op game for 1-4 players that takes about an hour to get you head around. Enjoy everybody.
