Birds of a feather flock together in this gentle game of tactics and card placement. 

Players are forest spirits, trying to secretly guide their chosen bird to success. The cards are numbered 1 to 7 in red, blue, green and white. The players lay a card from their hand to a 5x5 grid after nut tokens (points) are laid out for each row and column.

When the grid is full of cards, the rows and columns are checked. The color with the highest total in a line takes the nut token for that bird. Colors with tied totals are ignored, so a low value card can win the nut token for that bird.

When the nuts are totaled up for the birds, the players reveal their final hand card. That card is the bird they favored (so more than one player might be helping the same bird), and for each player, the number on the card is added to the nut total to identify who has the dominant bird.

Since the players choose which bird they favor by leaving it as their final hand card, they can delay this choice until they see how the game is panning out.
