Starling Games | Everdell: Bellfaire | 1-6 Players | Ages 14+ | 40-120 Minutes Playing Time

Absolutely brilliant game. Very original. Easy to learn. Beautiful theme and artwork.

Was a bit cautious about buying this game, as it didn’t look like my kind of game. After reading so many reviews and comments about it, I decided to buy it and I’m glad I did. A fantastic game that is family oriented and fun. At first it looks daunting but very easy to pick up. There are great YouTube videos to help.

Great game, beautiful artwork

I like how the game design and mechanics fit satisfyingly well around the central theme of building a flourishing forest city. The art design on the playing cards is delightfully cute, and the pairing of critters with their corresponding construction in the artwork is a lovely feature.I've mostly played the 2-player game with my partner, but have also played with 3 or 4 players, where more of the unique cards and events can be showcased per game. A single player option is also available.Once players are familiar with the rules, each person's individual turn is relatively short, so that the game can progress fairly quickly without people getting bored waiting for their turn. There are good videos available online explaining the rules in around 20 minutes or less, and I would generally recommending checking these out so you can try before you buy. The paper rulebook provided also contains more artwork and lore about the game world.My family and friends have enjoyed playing this game together multiple times, so I would say this represents decent value for money. Overall quality and durability of the physical pieces (cards, resource markers, player markers, board) is very good, though I would recommend taking care when constructing the Evertree part of the board as this is the most easy part to accidently damage due to frequent construction and deconstruction.

Very cute and great fun. Very high quality components - that make the game more engaging - and worth the price. The rules are probably slightly too complex for very young children but the basic rules are covered in just a few pages - the variety comes from the text on the cards - so older children will have no trouble and the learning curve is not steep at all. There are also multiple expansions if you want to increase the complexity and length of the game - but the base game is great on its own and the ultra cute theme makes it a firm family favourite.

Lovely game. Rules are fairly straight forward and after watching a video on YouTube it was fine. Nice gameplay. Deciding what to do each turn is tricky and working out what cards you want to play also get the brain ticking!The artwork is stunning and the characters superb.There are expansion sets if you get bored but haven’t needed to look at them yet as still working out core tactics.

bought for my son who really likes these type of games, played it twice, both times took 2hrs! it supposed to take around 80 minutes anyway! would probably get quicker once used to playing, saying that it is a good game, just a little too many choices/options in each round

We absolutely love Everdell, It has to be one of our favourite board games. Bellfaire is the most reasonably priced expansion and it adds some great new features such as the marketplace. The main reason for picking this expansion over the others has to be that it turns Everdell from a 4 player to a 6 player game.
