Forest Shuffle: Dartmoor is a stand-alone game within the Forest Shuffle family and introduces a brand new habitat and features new species with new abilities and bonuses to explore. Like in the original Forest Shuffle, in Forest Shuffle: Dartmoor players compete to build the most valuable environment by placing trees and shrubs, then attracting species to these locations to create an ecologically balanced habitat of flora and fauna.
What's new in Dartmoor is the introduction of TERRAIN cards that are played horizontally and serve as a home or feeding ground for different species than trees or shrubs. Due to the nature of the terrain, species can only be placed above and below a terrain card. Deer and other species stay clear the bogs or peat areas in the moorland. They need to drink, but will not feel safe at dwells or next to rivulets. So players need to be careful, where they place their species.
Like its predecessor, Forest Shuffle: Dartmoor comes with a unique back side: Each of the 180 cards of the deck can be placed face down, creating a bog, if the action allows it. The caves in Forest Shuffle: Dartmoor now will be drafted at the beginning of the game and offer asymmetrical starting conditions. Additionally, the number of tree symbols has been reduced from eight to six to enable bonuses more easily.
The game mechanism stays untouched: To start, each player has six cards in hand, with cards depicting either a particular type of tree, shrub or terrain or two moor dwellers (animal, plants), with these latter cards being divided in half, whether vertically or horizontally, with one dweller in each card half. On your turn, either draw two cards (either face down from the deck or face up from the clearing) and add them to your hand, or play a card from your hand by discarding other cards to pay the cost. In the end, the player with the highest score wins.

森森不息：達特穆爾 - 很有英國風情！
森森不息：達特穆爾 是 森森不息 系列的一款獨立遊戲，採用全新的棲息地及擁有新能力與獎勵的新物種供探索。和原版的 森森不息 一樣，在 森森不息：達特穆爾 中，玩家們透過種植樹木和灌木競爭，吸引物種落腳，創造出一個生態平衡的動植物棲息地。
達特穆爾的新特色在於引入了地形卡，這些卡片會水平放置，並作為樹木或灌木以外，其他不同物種的棲息地或覓食地。由於這些地形卡的特性，物種只能放置在卡片的上方和下方。鹿及其他物種會遠離荒原上的沼澤或泥炭區域。雖然牠們需要飲水，但在水井或小溪旁卻缺乏安全感。因此，玩家在放置物種時需要格外謹慎小心。
和前作相同，森森不息：達特穆爾也保留了特殊的「卡牌反面機制」：牌庫中的 180 張卡牌，在符合條件時，都能以反面放置，形成「沼澤」地形。森森不息：達特穆爾遊戲開始時，玩家還會進行「洞穴」的挑選，每位玩家都會獲得不同的起始能力與條件，讓開局更加多變。另外，本作也將樹木符號從 8 個縮減為 6 個，使得玩家更容易獲得額外獎勵。
遊戲機制不變：初始時，每位玩家手中有六張牌，每張牌要麼描繪特定類型的樹木、灌木叢或地形，要麼描繪兩種荒野居民（動物、植物）。後者會被分成兩半，可以是垂直的，也可以是水平的，每半張牌代表一種居民。輪到你時，你可以抽兩張牌（從牌堆中抽取面朝下的牌，或從空地抽取面朝上的牌）加入手牌，或者通過棄掉其他牌來支付費用，打出一張手牌。最終，得分最高的玩家獲勝。
