Squirrel or Die is a tile game which takes 20 min or less to play. Game play is split into Autumn (hide food) and Winter (eat food) phases. Your goal is to be the only squirrel to survive winter. In the Autumn phase, you take turns discovering new tiles and setting up the board. In the Winter phase, you consume what you “squirreled away” in autumn and try to last as long you can.
