Description
Root is an adventure and war game in which 2 to 4 (6 with the Riverfolk expansion) battle for control of a vast wilderness.
The nefarious Marquise de Cat has seized the great woodland, intent on harvesting its riches. Under her rule, the many creatures of the forest have banded together. This Alliance will seek to strengthen its resources and overthrow the rule of the Cats. In this endeavor, the Alliance may seek the aid of the wandering Vagabonds who are able to navigate the most dangerous forest paths. Although some may align with the hopes and dreams of the Alliance, these wanderers are old enough to remember the great predatory birds that once controlled the woods.
Meanwhile, at the edge of the region, the proud Eyrie have found a new commander whom they hope will lead their faction to reclaim their ancient birthright. The stage is set for a contest that will determine the fate of the great woodland. It is up to the players to decide which group will ultimately take root.

Guys, it is a wonderful board game. The rules are a bit strange at first until you learn them, but within the first hour you learn them and it is simply perfect. The pieces are beautiful and the quality of the materials is unquestionably among the best.

Did you find this review helpful?Another amazing game for fans of the genre. Each race has its own way of playing and its own goals. It takes a little time to learn, but then promises hours of fun and strategic thinking (or just trolling)

Did you find this review helpful?-War game, strategy.
-Beautiful design, from the pawns to the cards.
-Huge replayability thanks to the completely different gameplay of each faction.
-Difficult to learn, each player must know to some extent what each opponent can do in order to play correctly.
-The first games will definitely take a lot of time, don't be discouraged.My favorite board game so far.

Did you find this review helpful?Very high-quality strategy and war game!! Its design is impeccable in terms of board, cards, and components. Additionally, the game is completely asymmetrical, and each faction has its own philosophy to learn and understand. Each match naturally takes a considerable amount of time, especially in the first few matches, around 1 and 30 approximately. Of course, with the expansions, it evolves completely. Perhaps the best board game I have ever played!!

Did you find this review helpful?Excellent game. Completely asymmetrical, to the extent that some may find it quite complex. If you dedicate some time to learn it and understand how each faction works, you will fully appreciate it. In combination with the expansions available that add more factions and maps, it becomes incredibly interesting with huge replayability. Top-notch build quality.
We love it.

Did you find this review helpful?Incredibly well-made and cleverly designed game.
It presents a difficulty in understanding the rules, but once you grasp the concept, it is one of the best board games!

Did you find this review helpful?A war game for two to four players that if you get carried away by the (admittedly) cute artwork, you have definitely lost...
Of relatively short duration, it allows you to play non-stop to improve your strategy. The available races have a distinct way of development, which contributes to the replayability of the game.
Players need some time to familiarize themselves with the different approaches to the game, depending on the race they choose.
The races can be combined in many different ways, so even two players can choose different races each time.Translated from Greek ·- Fun

Did you find this review helpful?Very good game from Leder Games and designer Cole Wehrle, known for his asymmetric and asymmetrical games (such as the also excellent Vast: The Crystal Caverns). Just like in Vast, the most interesting element of the game is the following: Each player, depending on the faction they choose, plays and "scores" in a different way from the others, even though they follow the same rules.
For example, the Marquise de Cat represents the strong power at the beginning of the game and aims to establish her dominance in the depths of the forest. Thus, she starts with a large number of troops and buildings, while scoring by building more buildings that gradually confirm her "empire". The Woodland Alliance represents the resistance (from the cute little rabbits and mice of the forest), which scores by spreading "sympathy" for its resistance. It starts without any pieces on the board, but in a dramatic turn, its revolution will culminate and it will break free from the bonds (buildings, troops) of the other players and suddenly find itself in the spotlight with its soldiers. The Vagabond is a solitary raccoon (!) who, as a true adventurer, has no troops or buildings and helps whichever faction suits him in order to achieve his own selfish goals.
For this reason, the game becomes particularly entertaining and has a high degree of replayability. As for the negatives, it requires a little time and a few games to understand how the other players play besides your own faction, but it is not something that will make it difficult for anyone more than 2-3 times.
Very beautiful board and artwork (and very funny!), well-designed rules, and overall a very interesting game. Recommended for groups that can dedicate at least 3-4 players to play it. Playtime of about one to two hours.
