Who it's for

Players who like area-control games with constant back-and-forth and enjoy commanding pieces that aren't purely their own.

Not for you if…

You prefer stable, plannable positions β€” Perch's shared-bird mechanic makes long-term control hard to lock down.

🦊

Vibe's take

Tense and reactive β€” majorities flip constantly as new birds get drawn, so no lead ever feels fully secure.

About this game

In Perch, flocks of birds fight for control of the treetops, and you're commanding more than just your own. Each round you draw birds from a shared bag and stack them onto modular location tiles, pushing rivals off their perch to claim majorities and unique abilities. After five rounds, whoever scored the most points wins.
