You are a juvenile crow, leaving the nest for the first time, exploring the world seeing its wonders and looking for a place for you to finally settle down and build your own nest.
As the Crow Flies uses the Carta system by Peach Garden RPG and has the player lay down a set number of cards as the world they are exploring, and move a token around the card as a means of exploration. Within those cards is the Jack of Hearts, representing your ideal home and the 2 of Diamonds: your childhood nest.
The goal is to explore the world and collect a set number of tokens before you settle down. But, your crow only has so much time and energy, represented by feathers, before they decide to settle with what they have instead of their dream location.
The game also provides a way for players to play a shorter or longer game buy changing the board size, energy amount, and token amount.
I chose to play a shorter game today and explored 7 areas before my little crow decided to settle in a large abandoned tower that was occupied by lots of all different kinds of birds. You can read my playthrough HERE
