## Description
Grab your brushes and colors, because Mosaic Forest is in full celebration mode! In Canvas Critters, you're stepping into the vibrant art festival at Gallery Grove to try and impress the formidable (and slightly self-centered) curator, Bianca Blanco. The goal is simple yet requires a keen artistic eye: you must collect colorful animal-shaped meeples and arrange these little artists to create stunning mosaics. But heads up, not just any design will do! Each round, one player steps up as the Curator, setting a specific theme that everyone must follow. If you manage to build the pattern requested by the theme, you might just win Bianca's approval! The real twist is that scoring is a secret: at the end of each turn, the Curator hands out award ribbons privately. You won't know if you're an artistic genius or a total disaster until everyone has had their turn as Curator and the ribbons are finally revealed. It's a fast-paced, visually delightful game, perfect for those looking to laugh and compete without getting bogged down in complex rules. Will your creativity shine at the grand gala, or will you end up forgotten in the gallery basement?
