Fox Matters (2021)

Fox Matters is a 1-5 player real-time co-op game about adorable foxes dealing with everyday problems. Race the clock, recruit Foxes, and match their symbols to deal with troubles piling up in the Fox Kingdom.

Game alternates between the non-stress Planning phase and the real-time Action phase.

To deal with incoming problems, complications, and Nightmares, players need to match symbols in proper colors to requirements on the cards.

The symbols come from:

Player’s Miniatures - just put your hero on the problem to contribute to solving it.
Action/Caring/Friendship Cards - dealt to each player at turns start.
Fox Cards - recruited during the game.

Cards cannot be played haphazardly though. Each card has a set of symbols it can be followed with. If a mistake is made the combination does not work, even if all required symbols are present. When cooperating in real-time and solving multiple problems, it is not hard to miss something.
