You barely had time to pick up the baby and your favorite fishing pole before they started the burning and pillaging. You wandered over a cruel desert, braved frozen peaks, and even paddled a log across a rough sea, kicking at the sharks whenever they got too close, the baby strapped tightly to your back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10.5px; font-family: proxima-nova, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;\"\u003eThen you found it! The perfect place to make your new home. But as soon as you had the first hut built, you discovered a vast network of caverns underground, brimming with shiny treasures, rare resources, and untold adventure. How could you limit your new village to the surface? You immediately start organizing expeditions and building houses underground as well as on the surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10.5px; font-family: proxima-nova, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;\"\u003eWith any luck, you'll build a village even stronger than your last-- strong enough, even, to turn away the barbarians the next time they come knocking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10.5px; font-family: proxima-nova, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;\"\u003e\u003cem style=\"box-sizing: border-box;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 600;\"\u003eAbove and Below\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e is a mashup of town-building and storytelling where you and up to three friends compete to build the best village above and below ground. In the game, you send your villagers to perform jobs like exploring the cave, harvesting resources, and constructing houses. Each villager has unique skills and abilities, and you must decide how to best use them. You have your own personal village board, and you slide the villagers on this board to various areas to indicate that they've been given jobs to do. Will you send Hanna along on the expedition to the cave? Or should she instead spend her time teaching important skills to one of the young villagers?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10.5px; font-family: proxima-nova, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;\"\u003eA great cavern lies below the surface, ready for you to explore-- this is where the storytelling comes in. When you send a group of villagers to explore the depths, one of your friends reads what happens to you from a book of paragraphs. You'll be given a choice of how to react, and a lot will depend on which villagers you brought on the expedition, and who you're willing to sacrifice to succeed. The book of paragraphs is packed with encounters of amazing adventure, randomly chosen each time you visit the cavern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10.5px; font-family: proxima-nova, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;\"\u003eAt the end of the game, the player with the most well-developed village wins!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10.5px; font-family: proxima-nova, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;\"\u003eThe \u003cem style=\"box-sizing: border-box;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 600;\"\u003eKickstarter version\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e of the game included the following items which are not found in the Retail version:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 10.5px; font-family: proxima-nova, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"box-sizing: border-box;\"\u003eVillager Tool tokens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"box-sizing: border-box;\"\u003eLost Villagers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"box-sizing: border-box;\"\u003eSwamp Villagers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"box-sizing: border-box;\"\u003eExclusive Stretch goals:\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"box-sizing: border-box;\"\u003eCreature Villagers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"box-sizing: border-box;\"\u003eQuest Tokens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"box-sizing: border-box;\"\u003eUnderforest Tokens and PDF story book\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"box-sizing: border-box;\"\u003eDesert Labyrinth tokens and PDF story book\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"box-sizing: border-box;\"\u003eWooden Goods\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10.5px; font-family: proxima-nova, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10.5px; font-family: proxima-nova, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;\"\u003eThis collection of items can be found in \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/boardgamegeek.com\/boardgameexpansion\/175452\/above-and-below-expanded-edition-exclusives\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; background-color: transparent; color: #000000; text-decoration-line: none; cursor: pointer; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(50, 46, 77, 0.3); transition: border 0.1s linear 0s; border-top: none; border-right: none; border-left: none; border-image: initial; border-bottom: 1px dotted rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.7);\"\u003eAbove and Below: Expanded Edition Exclusives\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"red raven","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":38079774916800,"sku":"040232261213","price":54.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0341\/2705\/2940\/products\/5c58783dc98d68b4d095da18c1e46ad65ced4a3e.jpg?v=1613009865","url":"https:\/\/americasgamestore.com\/products\/38189","provider":"America's Game Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
