Living Forest - Stop or even and Deck Building

You are a Spirit of the Wild and you have been appointed to save the forest and its Sacred Tree from the flames of Onibi. You are not alone in this mission, the Animal Guardians have gathered around the Circle of Spirits where you progress, and provide you with invaluable help.

14 Animal Guardian cards make up your starting team. An Animal brings you, with more or less force, one or more elements: light to attract new animals, shoots to plant protective trees, water to extinguish the incessant flames of Onibi, wisdom to advance on the Circle of Spirits and sacred flowers to awaken Sanki. On each turn you reveal your Guardian Animal cards one by one, trying to get the best possible combination of elements to perform your two actions. Be careful, if three Lone Animals are played, you will only be able to achieve one. At the end of the turn, you recover as many Fire Monitor Lizard cards as there are unlit fires. These cards have the same effect as the Solitaire Guardian Animal cards except that they do not give you any benefits in return. You win the game, by planting 12 different protective trees or by collecting 12 sacred flowers to wake up Sanki or by putting out 12 fires to repel Onibi for good.
