Kids Say:
“It’s just ok. I think we were playing the game wrong, because my character (the Vagabond) got almost no points. I had a lot of fun, but ended up losing very badly. I liked having a simpler role. If you don’t know the rules, you can make a lot of mistakes very fast.”
Adults Say:
“It is genius that every character plays a completely different game all the way through the forest, but this is also the game’s downfall. Of all the games on our shelf, it is the hardest one to teach – as you essentially have to teach every player a completely different set of rules. Even on our third game, we were digging around in the instruction manual to clarify rules and see sample moves. That said, it seems well-balanced, and I can’t wait to play again.”
