Haven

Description from the publisher: The mystical forest has been a home and haven to beasts, spirits, and forgotten gods for thousands of years. While the forest spirits sleep, in a nearby valley a human village has grown into a city, a monster of iron and furnaces, hungry for the resources of the forest. Can the forest creatures rouse the slumbering forest spirits to defend their ancient land from the ravenous city? In Haven, you and a friend battle for control of a mystical forest. One of you controls the city in an effort to master the forest using metal and machines. The other plays as the forest creatures who attempt to rouse the sleeping forest spirits to defend their home. You take turns sending creatures to six regions on a beautiful forest board, carefully moving them in an attempt to harvest or defend the forest while exploring these regions. On their journeys, your creatures collect potent lore which is used either to activate machines or to awaken slumbering forest spirits, giving players access to powerful special actions. You may also send three creatures to a region to build a shrine or stronghold, granting you bonus lore. As you gain control of the forest, you advance a victory marker along a track toward your side. Build enough of a lead, and you immediately win! If the battle continues until the third season, the player with the advantage either masters the forest or defends it from harm, and wins the game.
