Shadows in the Forest
Cover image for Shadows in the Forest
Theme & Description:
This game is played in the dark. One player plays as the Seeker, who carries a glowing lantern on the dark forest and slowly sweeps its light over the board. The other players play as Shadowlings hiding behind the trees, cooperatively trying to stay in darkness and meet under one tree. If a Shadowling gets caught in the light, they're frozen, forcing teammates to patiently free them once the beam has passed. Timing and teamwork matter more than luck!

This game can only be played during the night.
