Product Description
Dare to enter Dragonwood! Deep in the heart of this mythical forest lurk angry ogres, giggling goblins, and even the famed and fearsome fire-breathers themselves! Collect sets of adventurer cards to earn dice, which you will use to roll against your foes. Stomp on some fire ants, shriek at a grumpy troll, or strike the menacing orange dragon with a magical silver sword. Choose your strategy carefully because the landscape of Dragonwood is ever-changing. Only the bravest will overcome the odds to emerge victorious! It may be hard to imagine, but Dragonwood, with its vast array of richly illustrated cards, started out looking much different than where it ended. Inventor Darren Kisgen submitted a prototype without a single illustration - just simple words and numbers written in marker on blank white cards. Well apparently that's all was needed, because within moments, our play testers were enraptured with the simple-to-learn but deeply engaging fantasy-themed game. Illustrator Chris Beatrice beautifully captured the wit and humor depicted in Darren's words to create one of our most visually appealing games.

This is a simple but exciting small fantasy game. Easy to learn, quick to play.
The only reason I don't give it five stars is that once you get going it's rather redundant. You're pretty much doing the same thing again and again. But for kids it's fine. As an adult it gets old. ;)
Top reviews from other countries
The included dice are not standard six sided dice, with their sides being numbered 1 to 4 inclusive, with numbers 2 and three twice as likely as 1 and 4 on each dice. This makes rolling with more dice more likely to achieve higher numbers, and much more likely to score in the middle of the range. This removes a lot of potential frustration from 'sheer bad luck' and keeps the game fun and flowing.
It's not a directly competitive game, players compete to accumulate points and collect enhancement cards, but there is no direct interaction and everything feels 'fair'. The game is great for younger players as a result, as the risk of argument and the inevitable 'rage quit' is reduced.
My only concern with the game is that I suspect some of the enhancement cards are slightly over-powered (yes Cloak of Darkness, I'm looking at you). Or maybe I'm just bitter.
Overall I would recommend this game as it's quick to set up, fun to play as a family game, doesn't last for hours, doesn't need a huge space (there's no board - you just need a card table with enough room to lay out cards) and doesn't generally lead to fights. Perfect for holidays, camping and (these days) power cuts!
