Direwolf Digital is excited to announce that the award-winning tabletop game Root from Leder Games is now available on Steam Early Access. This game is their latest work in their digital adaptations which includes games like Raiders of the North Sea and Sagrada. This digital version will also be cross compatible when the mobile and Nintendo Switch versions release at a later date.
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.
Root is a digital board game of adventure and war where up to 4 players take control of rival forest factions in a battle for their woodland home. Lovingly adapted from the 2018 Golden Geek Board Game of the Year, Root captures the magic of the wild wood in the next great digital board game. The four factions of Root each have their own goals and unique asymmetrical gameplay that can turn at a moment’s notice. Subtle strategy and bold daring are required to guide your forest faction to victory! Root’s iconic art style and whimsical characters make for an unforgettable board game experience.
For those who love the tabletop game or have been looking to try out all the different factions, this is a great opportunity. Stay tuned to Gaming Trend for all your tabletop news.
