Lost in the Fae and hounded by enigmatic spirits, the brave druids of the Baruitha clan gather to perform sacred rituals in honor of these mystic denizens... JOURNEY ACROSS THE WORLD OF THE FAE Enter an enchanted realm of otherworldly beauty filled with enigmatic spirits! In Fae, two to four players assume the roles of wayward spirits within the mystic realm, obscuring their identities from each other while attempting to lure druids lost in these strange lands. As you lead groups of druids together, they perform rituals that award points. HONOR THE SPIRITS The druids gather to honor the spirits of the world of the Fae. Though the druids can perform rituals for more than one spirit, each spirit desires to rise above the rest. Keep your identity secret and strategically gather the druids together for rituals, scoring the most points to win. In Fae, first released as Clans, each player is trying to achieve victory by scoring as many points for their color as they can. This is tricky as each player's color is chosen at random and kept hidden until the end of the game. Each region of the board contains five areas, each one of five different types. Each area receives one hut each of five different colors. On their turn, a player moves all huts from one area containing less than seven to an adjacent area, all the while trying to hide which color is theirs. After moving, if one or more areas are completely surrounded by empty areas, they are scored. If all colors are present in a scoring, any colors with only one hut present are removed. The epoch track allows a limited number of areas to score before the game ends, and each scoring will either gain a bonus or score nothing depending on the terrain type in which scoring occurred and how far along the track the game has progressed; each scoring advances the track, and each section of the track gives different terrain types bonuses and penalties. Once at least twelve areas have scored the game ends, then players reveal their colors to find out who was best able to score the most points while keeping their color a secret.
