Read the full game description
Peacock, published in English as Fetching Feathers, is a card-drafting and tableau-building game about attracting migratory birds. Across three seasons, players draft birds and locations, build habitats with the food each species needs, and score feathers for successfully housed flocks. When the season changes, locations rotate and their resources change, forcing every sanctuary to adapt. An additional migration step can send unhoused birds to an opponent, so every draft affects both your own engine and the opportunities around the table.
