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.

A very well-executed mobile experience for an excellent game. This comes with the base game factions and maps, with options to purchase expansions. It also has interactive tutorials to explain the game and factions, and solo play with AI components. The UI is excellent, giving you easy access to your actions and rules without feeling cluttered. Actions are animated, making it feel more alive than a physical board. The only real complaint that I have is the default camera is too zoomed in.

What a great implementation of Root! Easily a top 5 mobile game... and one of the most interesting board games. The Challenges are awesome. As Root learner, they helped me utilize different elements of the factions and prepared me to problem solve in a pinch during games. It's so nice to have the computer keep track of everything. Online games have been fun, challenging, and collegial. Great work, Dire Wolf. Between this and Everdell consider me a fan!

The app works well. I have experienced only minor gliches when reopening the app to answer a call or something, but since it auto saves, that is easily overcome by reseting the app. I love the music and graphics and has made me understand the game easier so that I can play with my friends in person on the board game versions. Totally worth the $5.00 I spent on it after getting a $5.00 discount
