App summary

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.

User reviews

One of the best, most enjoyable, entertaining, and replayable strategy games out there. Anthropomorphized medieval woodland creatures at war over control of the forest---also one of the best settings for a game. Root digital does have a few bugs, but a lot was fixed in the most recent patch so they're now mostly with the Automated Factions, and thus, rather negligible. I highly recommend the physical boardgame as superior, but Root digital is well worth several hundred hours of your time.

God bless I love this game. It took me awhile to learn. Frankly, I had to watch a tutorial on YouTube even the tutorial didn't seem efficient. Asymmetrical board games are weird. But it's well worth learning. It's so much fun, and it's so much more convenient when the computer takes care of all the tokens and card drawing and all that jazz so you don't have to. I will say tho, I may just buy the actual board game now because I actually love this game and it's expansions. Well worth the buy.

The game is great and the animations are nice. It makes it much easier to understand and play the board game, HOWEVER the app needs a lot of work. On foldable phones (OnePlus Open) all the UI overlaps when on the main screen. The setting have an option to change the UI scale, which funny enough doesn't work. You change the settings, click save, and then it reverts back to the large UI. Would change to a 5 star if I could play the game on my main display.
