All the Games with Steph: Fruit Island - Teach

About Fruit Island, from BoardGameGeek:

Fruit Island is a fast-paced, interactive design by Reiner Knizia centered on timing, risk assessment, and tactical positioning. Players take on the role of agile monkeys gathering fruit across a shared island landscape. Each turn presents a familiar Knizia dilemma: press your luck to collect more, or secure what you've gained before the roaming gorilla disrupts your plans. Movement and collection are simple, but the shared space creates constant tension as players influence one another's opportunities and risks. The rules are approachable, yet the decision space is sharp and dynamic. Incremental gains can compound quickly - or unravel just as fast - depending on timing and table interaction. As in many of Knizia's designs, the depth emerges not from complexity, but from player psychology and calibrated pressure. Designed for 2–4 players and playing in about 20 minutes, Fruit Island offers a compact, highly interactive experience that highlights Knizia's enduring ability to pair elegant mechanics with meaningful decisions.
