Description
The Wolves is a strategic game where 2 to 5 players compete to build the largest and most dominant pack. It's a fight for survival as you claim territory, recruit lone wolves, and hunt prey, all while trying not to expand too recklessly into rival territory. The game features a clever action-selection mechanism, where flipping terrain tiles determines your next moves, and upgrading your pack's attributes allows for more aggressive actions as the game progresses. With a playtime of 75 minutes and normal complexity rules, The Wolves is an engaging game that's easy to learn for fans of board games. The modular board and variable setup ensure a unique experience each time, and the take-that mechanics keep players on their toes. Published in 2022 by designers Ashwin Kamath and Clarence Simpson, The Wolves is a thrilling game of territory building and abstract strategy that will keep you coming back for more.
