If you've already fallen in love with the Meadow ecosystem, grab your kayak because the adventure is about to flow! Meadow: Downstream is the expansion that plunges players into a vibrant aquatic environment, bringing a refreshing change of scenery for those who have mastered the fields. The big news here is the introduction of a new exploration element: the river. Through a two-sided river board, you decide the pace of your journey. Want something more tranquil to observe calm life? Choose the calm river. Prefer adrenaline and a greater navigation challenge? The fast stream is the place for you.

For card collectors, this expansion is a feast, featuring over 80 new cards depicting the fauna and flora of rivers, streams, and lakes. But it's not just 'more of the same.' The kayaking mechanism introduces a race and extra scoring dynamic as you progress downstream, adding a layer of movement strategy that wasn't there before. You'll need to manage your hands and actions with even more precision to ensure your aquatic wildlife is the most diverse and well-established. It's the kind of expansion that doesn't just add content, but expands the strategic possibilities of the base game, maintaining that relaxing nature-observation feel while adding an extra touch of competition for the best route. If you enjoy the base game and want to feel like you're exploring a completely new biome, Downstream is the perfect upgrade for your table!
