Description

Roundforest is a family game for 2-4 players. Despite the fairy-tale theme, it requires a great deal of strategic thinking. You play as poor lads who compete for the favor of the beautiful princess. The winner will be the one who brings her the emerald ring of the Forest Spirit residing in the Roundforest. But the Spirit is only willing to hand over the ring for three golden apples – and if certain other conditions are also met. The task is a challenging one. To begin with, nobody knows where the Forest Spirit is hiding. Then, it is not so easy to find your way in this enchanted forest: whenever you arrive at a clearing (a game space), it makes a quadrant turn clockwise! This constantly changes players movement options. Of course, golden apples are not found in the forest. These are acquired by smart planning and a series of actions. You will collect various objects; use them if needed, trade them with the Fairy, or find a magic well to convert them into something else. This way you may come by some golden apples too. You will encounter various fairy-tale characters living in the Roundforest, such as a magic steed, a witch, a goblin, a beggar, a wealthy merchant, a puzzled sculptor, a bandit – or even the Devil itself. Some of these creatures are friendly, while others are hostile, trying to make your life difficult. The former might help you in return for a little favor, and the latter can be defeated if you deal with them the right way. The game field is built randomly of 32 octagonal forest tiles. Components include 12 fairy-tale character cards, a large pack of object tokens, action discs, copper and silver coins, a fairy board, personal boards (haversacks) and a draw bag. The game provides approximately 1 hour playing time. It is recommended above 8 years of age. —description from the publisher (translated) Ez a 2-4 fő ltal j tszhat csal di j t k a meseszerű tematika ellen re strat giai gondolkod st ig nyel.
