Fun and cute game! Led to a lot of whispering and pointing and also trying to confuse the light keeper This was a lot of fun. We were confused on how to move the shadowlings but once we started the game we realized that their movement was entirely based on avoiding any of the light from the lantern. This made it very challenging to sign language to team mates about movements without giving things away to the person in control of the lantern. Basically, they roll the die and move in one direction and only change at moss covered rocks. They cover their eyes and the shadowlings [everyone else…
The closest thing to a fun Studio Ghibli board game we’ll ever get. Really fun game- and the little characters look like Totoros! (<--- My Neighbor Totoro reference). This game is fun, well made (not cheap junky pieces), and the little lantern is amazing. Recommend it- totally unique and fun!
Shadows in the Forest Beautifully made, a great product. A good way to get the family off the internet.
