Preorder ‘My Little Scythe’ Through May 10th

May 3, 2018

Stonemaier Games has revealed their next game on the horizon and it’s a family friendly affair entitled My Little Scythe. In the game, one to six players will lead their animal pals across the kingdom of Pomme as they complete quests. The first edition will have a pretty small run so you’ll want to get in on the preorder which only runs through May 10th. My Little Scythe is for ages 8+, plays in about 45 minutes, and will carry an MSRP of $50.00. The game will release at Gen Con and be available in stores on August 17th.

From Stonemaier:

We have a new game! Inspired by Scythe and with its origins as an award-winning print-and-play game, My Little Scythe is a competitive, family-friendly game for 1-6 players in which each player controls 2 animal miniatures embarking upon an adventure in the Kingdom of Pomme. It’s designed by Hoby Chou with his daughter, Vienna (as well as the Automa team for the solo version), and illustrated by Katie Khau.

In an effort to be the first to earn 4 trophies from 8 possible categories, players take turns choosing to Move, Seek, or Make. These actions will allow players to increase their friendship and pies, power up their actions, complete quests, learn magic spells, deliver gems and apples to Castle Everfree, and perhaps even engage in a pie fight.

Some of My Little Scythe’s mechanisms are inspired by the bestselling game, Scythe. It caught the eye of Stonemaier Games as a fan-created print-and-play game in 2017 (it went on to win the BoardGameGeek 2017 award for best print-and-play game).
