## Description
In LULO Forest, get ready for a real-time forest-building challenge where agility and quick thinking are your best allies! Each player constructs their own section of forest simultaneously, using path tiles that must connect perfectly. The rule is clear: each newly placed tile must extend a continuous path, matching both the paths and the forest edges. And once a tile is down, there's no moving it! The game flows non-stop, as soon as you use your tiles, you draw new ones, keeping the action constant and eliminating the boredom of waiting for others. But not everything is peaceful in the forest! Some tiles come with green trees and, surprise, they must be placed on an opponent's map. That's right, a chance to mess with someone else's plans while you continue to develop your own. The game ends when all tiles have been used, and then it's time to tally points. You score for mushroom glades that are fully surrounded by eight adjacent tiles and for small closed loops within your forest. Only correctly placed tiles count, and only the longest connected path is valued. The player with the most points takes the crown as the best forest architect!
