Root: A Game of Woodland Might & Right

Asymmetric Strategy & Warfare Board Game


The forest is stirring! In Root, players battle for control of a vast woodland in an ultimate game of adventure and asymmetric warfare. Each player commands a unique faction with its own distinct abilities, victory conditions, and captivating playstyle, leading to incredible replayability and dynamic interactions.

Will you play as the industrious Marquise de Cat, exploiting the forest's resources? Or the proud Eyrie Dynasties, struggling to reclaim their ancient birthright? Perhaps the rebellious Woodland Alliance, gathering strength in the shadows? Or the cunning Vagabond, forging alliances and rivalries as they pursue their secret quests? The fate of the forest is in your hands!
