Commentary

May 21 is designed as a fresh visual reset after several object-heavy boards. Forest Floor gives players a natural starting point with mushroom, acorn, pinecone, and fern. Theater Stage asks for a performance setting through curtain, spotlight, script, and theater mask. Money Matters is a practical association: coin, banknote, credit card, and piggy bank are different ways value appears, moves, or gets saved. Openings is the most abstract set. Doorway, keyhole, window, and tunnel are not the same kind of object, but each suggests a passage, view, or way through.
