=== First Edition (WE1) === | |||
In {{Year|2012}}, a physical edition was published with new artwork by [[Anne Pätzke]], who would later take over as principal illustrator for the series. This is referred to by the community as the "Winter Edition" (WE), or more specifically, WE1 to distinguish it from its successors. A new mini-expansion, [[Winter Edition The Gingerbread Man|The Gingerbread Man]], was also released on the Cundco web store. | In {{Year|2012}}, a physical edition was published with new artwork by [[Anne Pätzke]], who would later take over as principal illustrator for the series.

=== Second Edition (WE2) === | |||
The game was published again in {{Year|2020}}, which included a winterized version of [[Winter Edition The River|The River]]. Anne was still credited as the illustrator, but [[Marcel Gröber]] had added a few embellishments and reduced the size of the animals on the tiles to make them more realistic. This re-release is distinguished by the community as "WE2". Up to this point, the game had been sold exclusively through Müller, but in 2022 it was announced that other retailers would now be permitted to sell the Winter Edition, and the "WE2" edition was reprinted in greater quantities. | The game was published again in {{Year|2020}}, which included a winterized version of [[Winter Edition The River|The River]].

Not long after, [[Asmodee France]] and [[Asmodee Canada]] started showing off designs for another revision of the Winter Edition, to which had been added [[Winter Edition The Abbot|The Abbot]] figure and a winterized version of the garden feature. Marcel also added more buildings into the cities, which was consistent with his contribution to the revision of the base game artwork. This new edition, distinguished as "WE3" by the community, was released in December {{Year|2022}}. | Not long after, [[Asmodee France]] and [[Asmodee Canada]] started showing off designs for another revision of the Winter Edition, to which had been added [[Winter Edition The Abbot|The Abbot]] figure and a winterized version of the garden feature.
