Spirit Island
90m - 120m
1 - 4 Players
Ages 13+
In programming, every player must secretly choose and commit their moves for the next 'n' turns. Then each player plays their turns out according to the choices made. The key to Action / Movement Programming is that all players choose and lock in their actions, prior to anyone executing any of their actions.
Action / Movement Programming
Co-operative play encourages or requires players to work together to beat the game.
Cooperative Play
Hand management games are games with cards in them that reward players for playing the cards in certain sequences or groups. The optimal sequence/grouping may vary, depending on board position, cards held and cards played by opponents. Managing your hand means gaining the most value out of available cards under given circumstances. Cards often have multiple uses in the game, further obfuscating an "optimal" sequence.
Hand Management
Play occurs upon a modular board that is composed of multiple pieces, often tiles or cards. In many games, board placement is randomized, leading to different possibilities for strategy and exploration.Some games in this category have multiple boards which are not used simultaneously, preserving table space. Unused boards remain out of play until they are required.
Modular Board

One of the best co-operative games out there. The world you are defending feels like it is actually alive with the way the settlers organically spread out and start building towns, and the spirits subtly influencing the environment to fight back. One of my favourite aspects of the theme are the wonderfully evocative names for the spirit powers such as 'The land thrashes in furious pain' and 'Visions of fiery doom'. Each spirit offers a unique play style with it's own learning curve, and are cleverly designed to require support from other spirits. While Spirit Island doesn't quite live up to it's claim of eliminating quarter backing, I have found it does an excellent job of encouraging players to co-operate positively without micromanaging. The game is long and mentally taxing, so it doesn't get to the table as often as I would like. But it is always a satisfying and rewarding experience when it does.

Highly strategic and thematic coop. Great solo experience. Spirits differ a lot from eachother which can create powerful synergies. The game provides a challenge and huge amount of replayability. Rating based on solo play. Initial rating: 9

This game asks a lot from the player. There is a lot to keep track of, a lot of piece pushing, lots of phases in a turn, etc. But this game has so much to offer in return. I love the theme: both the spirits influencing the physical world aspect and the anti-colonialism. The variable player powers each spirit offers truly feel unique and match the theme of the charismatic spirits. The cards have a nice layout and are printed on lovely card stock. The power names and underlying mechanisms match well. You really feel like you are lending the Dahan a hand. The map looks great on both sides and the game looks great on the table, though it does take up a lot of space. The game is structured to avoid a co-operative quarterback, but if someone gives you a hard time, remind them that you are a powerful and unyielding spirit and make the move you want to make.
