In Essen, we'll be presenting our new release, Twinstar Valley. This game by Belgian author David Ausloos is for 1 to 4 players ages 10 and up.

The game is set in a future Norway where we're attempting to reinvent agriculture and its logistics.

Your goal is to grow delicious fruits, plan smart routes, and transport goods to local markets. All the while, you have to keep your economy running and complete special missions that can earn you extra points at the end of the game.

The game uses an innovative action selection mechanism where you choose actions together on the shared action board. Throughout the game, you'll increasingly find yourself in each other's path, limiting your options. Sometimes you'll have to consider sacrificing an action to perform that one desired action that might surprise your opponents.

The prices of your cultivated fruits will also continue to fluctuate throughout the game, so selling at the right time is also part of a successful strategy.

Throughout the game, you'll also need to continue investing in research to expand your options later on.

You'll have no choice but to utilize the network your fellow players have built. It's a collaborative project, but that doesn't mean there can only be one winner.

It's clear that you'll need to keep an eye on various areas, and this will also lead to a high level of interaction.

The game is playable as a family game, with a few minor changes to keep it accessible for everyone ages 10 and up. However, experienced players can add all the components for the ultimate Twinstar Valley experience.
