How to Enable It
Play Whisperer — Apples arrive automatically; your job is to pair-score them promptly so the next one can spawn.
How It Enters Your Board
Spawned by Whisperer's Frugivore starter perk on a random empty tile at turn start — only when no Apple is already on the board.
Score / Trigger
Scored as part of a pair: the Apple is destroyed and you gain +3 Mini-Dice.
Confirmed Mechanics
The Apple Engine
Apples are Whisperer's renewable resource. One Apple at a time, spawned automatically, destroyed by pair-scoring — and every destruction pays twice: +3 Mini-Dice from the pair itself and +10 XP to all artifacts on the board. Big Apple feeds the unit +100 STR each turn, and Wormfection converts each destroyed Apple into two Worms on random tiles.
How to Build Around It
Feeding the Orchard
The engine stalls while an Apple sits unscored — the spawn condition requires an empty Apple slot. Route pairs through the Apple's tile every turn, ideally in the Parasite column so each death also pays +1 Mini-Dice and +2 Mult.
Payouts & Synergies
- Destruction: +3 Mini-Dice (pair score) and +10 XP to all artifacts.
- Wormfection: two Worms per destroyed Apple.
- Big Apple: +100 STR to Apple units every turn start.
