Game Description:

Bearsus is a strategic board game where players take on the role of bear clans vying for dominance in a forest ecosystem. The game combines elements of resource management, territory control, and clever decision-making to create a unique and engaging experience.

How to Play:

Each player chooses a bear clan and places it on the starting space on the board.
Players roll a die to determine which resources (honey, fish, and berries) are available to collect on their turn.
The player can then move their bear to a space on the board that corresponds to the resource they want to collect.
The player can collect one resource per turn, and can use it to perform various actions, such as:
- Healing: Use honey to restore health to your bear.
- Feeding: Use fish or berries to increase your bear’s strength and movement range.
- Building: Use resources to construct new dens, which provide bonus abilities and protection.
Players can also interact with other bears on the board, using combat or diplomacy to resolve conflicts and gain advantages.
The game ends when one bear clan has reached the maximum strength and territory control, or when all other bears have been eliminated.
