About this game

Play the digital adaptation of the beloved tabletop board game. Root is a game of adventure and war where 2 to 4 players 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 subvert the rule of Cats. In this effort, the Alliance may enlist the help of the wandering Vagabonds who are able to move through the more dangerous woodland paths. Though some may sympathize with the Alliance’s hopes and dreams, these wanderers are old enough to remember the great birds of prey who once controlled the woods.

Meanwhile, at the edge of the region, the proud, squabbling Eyrie have found a new commander who they hope will lead their faction to resume their ancient birthright.

The stage is set for a contest that will decide the fate of the great woodland. It is up to the players to decide which group will ultimately take root.

This is my favorite board game. The physical game and the app are both very well-thought out, just like the game itself. Tons of fun! If you like strategy, this game has something for every type of play style. I also appreciate how the app guides you through the rules as needed, has tons of built-in variations and challenges, and lets you save a game for later. You can even play online! I love this.

God bless I love this game. It took me awhile to learn. Frankly, I had to watch a tutorial on YouTube even the tutorial didn't seem efficient. Asymmetrical board games are weird. But it's well worth learning. It's so much fun, and it's so much more convenient when the computer takes care of all the tokens and card drawing and all that jazz so you don't have to. I will say tho, I may just buy the actual board game now because I actually love this game and it's expansions. Well worth the buy.

Brilliant asymmetrical engine-builder. The blend of deckbuilding elements, bluffing, and personal objectives make each game play out differently. Each faction essentially plays as its own game with its own learning curve, and the real nuance is in the online mode. The AI, unfortunately, does not do it justice and are more suited for learning factions than anything. Expansions are EXTREMELY slow to release, but the art is great and there's tons of replayability and player interactivity here.
