Board Game Geek Rating: 7.35. Board Game Geek Avg Player Rating: 7.89. This play mat is suitable for 1 to 5 players and was published in 2021. It's a Kickstarter exclusive Neoprene Play Mat, an accessory for the PARKS board game by Keymaster Games. It comes with one play mat, and the core game is sold separately. Note that paid add - ons from the Kickstarter Campaign are not included unless stated otherwise. PARKS is a game celebrating US National Parks with amazing art from Fifty - Nine Parks. In the game, players become two hikers, trekking through different trails across four seasons. Hikers take actions and collect memories represented by resource tokens like mountains and forests. Collecting these memories in sets lets players visit a National Park at the end of each hike. Each season, the trails change and get longer. The tile - represented trails are shuffled between seasons. Resources can be scarce, especially when others are at your destination. Campfires let you share space with other hikers, and canteens and gear can improve resource access. Balancing engine - building and park - visiting is a challenge, but we're sure you're up for it. Welcome to PARKS! We're excited to support campaigns and offer games like this PARKS Neoprene Play Mat for online purchase at TheGameSteward. A significant portion of your spend will go towards backing new Kickstarter games. If you have any purchase questions or need game advice, contact The Game Steward.


Using the PARKS Neoprene Play Mat is easy. First, make sure you have the core game as this play mat is an accessory. Lay the play mat on a flat surface where you'll play the game. As you play, follow the rules of the PARKS board game. When the hikers move through the trails, use the play mat as the base for all the actions and token placements. Remember, this mat is part of a Kickstarter special edition, and paid add - ons from the campaign might not be included. To keep the mat in good condition, avoid sharp objects that could tear it. After each game, you can gently wipe it with a damp cloth. Store it in a dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading. Have fun playing and exploring the US National Parks in the game!
