Read the full game description
Send a woodland artisan to the river, place one glass piece from your inventory onto a matching river tile, then collect pieces from an adjacent section as the market flows forward. Each new color begins a column in your workshop, while matching colors climb upward and turn every draft into a spatial scoring decision. Complete rows from the left, build valuable tall columns, and avoid letting excess glass spill into the penalty area. The tactile pieces and quick turns make the core puzzle immediately inviting, while solo play and optional modules add new scoring pressures.
