About the Game

Fingertip Fungal Farming.

In Troglobites, players take on roles as mushroom gardeners in the deep dark cave. Every turn you rummage through the great rubbish heap, bringing home prize mushrooms (or perhaps nasty pests).

Each turn, you are offered 4 mushrooms pieces, picked blindly from the central heap by the previous player. You must choose three to keep and one to discard. Each type of mushroom/pest has a tastiness value, and a placement rule. You are trying to grow the tastiest mushroom garden. After a player fills the central hexagon of their garden, the game enters the final round, ending when it returns to that player.

The pieces are deliberately textured, and the rules suggest that on the 2nd or 3rd game players should be blindfolded, relying on their fingertips to 'see'.
