Product Description
Step into the enchanting world of River Valley, where the pristine beauty of glass along the river attracts the most enterprising woodland creatures to build their businesses. In River Valley Glassworks, you take on the role of one such pioneer, drafting colorful glass from the river’s flowing market and crafting it into unique designs in your woodland shop.
The gameplay revolves around a clever tile-placement mechanic. Players begin by strategically placing pieces from their inventory into the river, adhering to specific shapes and placement rules. Each time you place a tile, you open up new possibilities as the river shifts forward, revealing fresh tiles for you to draft. These tiles contain various types of glass, which you must carefully collect and store in your shop to maximize your scoring potential.
As you gather glass, placement is key. Strategically filling rows and columns in your shop will earn you bonus points, but beware of overcollecting any one type of glass, as doing so may result in negative points. Timing and strategy are essential in ensuring that you not only gather the right pieces but also position them in your shop to capitalize on the game’s scoring system.
