Linwood

Travel through the Linwood forest, collecting the element stones along the way, in this elegant looking and enjoyably light Kiwi made game.

Price: $25.00

This is a New Zealand title, but by the components alone, you’d never know. Brightly coloured and slickly finished, Linwood challenges players to explore the surrounding forest with a tile laying mechanism.

In Linwood players seek to collect the elusive element stones, before using them to gain special abilities. They can move faster, cross the river, travel through tunnels, and control the infamous forest bandit!

With no board, Linwood takes virtually no time to set up, and the pace of the game increases as players aim for a strong finish. Luck does play a part, but so does strategy, making Linwood an ideal warm up game for a night of gaming.
