About this board game
Mycology is a 2024 board game for 2–6 players that plays in about 60 minutes. Explore the forest floor through the changing seasons as you collect and classify a wondrous array of real fungi from around the world.
As a mycologist, you’ll move through the seasons while rolling dice to gather the resources needed to grow mushrooms. Use those resources to fill your basket with mushroom cards, each offering points at the end of the game.
Careful collecting is essential, however. Poison mushrooms can hurt your score, so consider what you add to your basket as you work toward the best possible collection.
- Roll dice to collect the resources needed to grow fungi.
- Gather mushroom cards featuring real fungi from around the world.
- Earn points from the mushrooms in your basket.
- Watch out for poison mushrooms that may damage your score.
The game ends once a player has completely filled their basket, bringing the seasonal exploration to a close. With approachable rules and a theme suited to all ages and experience levels, Mycology is designed for a relaxed, engaging play experience.
Whether played with family or friends, it offers a cozy way to spend an afternoon discovering fungi, managing resources, and building a collection. For the full atmosphere, pair your game with a steaming mug of mushroom soup.
