From BGG:

PARKS is a celebration of the US National Parks featuring illustrious art from Fifty-Nine Parks.

In PARKS, players will take on the role of two hikers as they trek through different trails across four seasons of the year. While on the trail, these hikers will take actions and collect memories of the places your hikers visit. These memories are represented by various resource tokens like mountains and forests. Collecting these memories in sets will allow players to trade them in to visit a National Park at the end of each hike.

Each trail represents one season of the year, and each season, the trails will change and grow steadily longer. The trails, represented by tiles, get shuffled in between each season and laid out anew for the next round. Resources can be tough to come by especially when someone is at the place you’re trying to reach! Campfires allow you to share a space and time with other hikers. Canteens and Gear can also be used to improve your access to resources through the game. It’ll be tough to manage building up your engine versus spending resources on parks, but we bet you’re up to the challenge. Welcome to PARKS!

  • Did not intend to buy a board game, but with a couple of hikes in the USA coming up, pulled the trigger here! Thanks OP.

  • Awesome, thanks for this - I've been waiting for it to drop in price for a long time.

  • This is a brilliant game! If you're on the fence, jump now at this price. Great deal! (Great for solo too.)

    • Thanks, what's the replayability like?

        I play primarily solo and feel it won't get old anytime soon. There are variable objective cards each game; then four (different) season cards each game (of which there are multiple. i.e. not the same four each game); a tonne of canteen cards; a tonne of item cards to dabble in during gameplay; automa 'Park Rangers' have a deck of cards that you won't see all cards until after multiple playthroughs.

        Haven't mentioned the stack of park cards which are beautiful and the production quality it top notch with wooden tokens and Game Trayz.

        It's a really enjoyable and relaxing solo experience.

  • Cheaper than the recent Advent sale if you missed it (although I'm not sure Amazon do the expansions)

    Edit - they do but they're not on sale

  • +1

    Thanks OP!
    Bit the bullet on this one although I was initially questioning how much I'd enjoy a board game about parks.
    But since I'm happy to try new things, I hope to be proven wrong, esp since OP says it's in the top ten for friends!
