Customer Reviews

Great game for those growing out the of the little kid stuff.My 9 year old son bought this game after playing it at church. The pastor's kids brought it one Sunday and they played it in lieu of Sunday school (clutch your pearls everyone!! lol). It's a fun game that gives the feeling of daring and challenge combined with strategy, but easy enough that you don't have to be a perfect strategist to do well. My kids are 6, 7 and 9 and they can all play it. I was actually surprised by how quickly they caught on to the complexities, but they also play Minecraft and other strategy games so they're used to this sort of thing. This is a great game for "inbetweeners" that are too old for Candy Land and too young for Risk. For them it feels like a "grown up" game, but it's well designed for young minds. For the educational minded, this game is good for math skills as well as logic and reasoning. It also encourages long term planning if you want to do well when a dragon strikes! My oldest quickly figured out to save a great hand to be ready for a dragon.The only reason I don't give it five stars is that once you get going it's rather redundant. You're pretty much doing the same thing again and again. But for kids it's fine. As an adult it gets old. ;) 4Much needed break from the WiiUMy two boys, 8 and 10, loved this game. They were worried that it would be too nerdy for them but ended up completely obsessed very quickly. I was so happy something got them away from video games! 5Beautiful and fun addition to homeschool game libraryMy 7 yr old son and I just received this game and have played it twice already. He needs a little help to get through it, but he loves the game already. He is fascinated with the artwork and creatures enough to be trying to read and quickly add up the dice on his own. He is a fairly reluctant reader and usually avoids reading even simple things so I am delighted this has caught his attention enough to make him excited to read and quickly add as well as think critically about the simple strategy. As a homeschool family, we are always on the lookout for fun games that reinforce concepts we are learning and this fits the bill! (Having 6 dice makes for great math). The game is really lovely and simple enough to play enjoyably from the start. 5Great game for little adventurers.Our boys received Dragonwood, Dungeon, and Pathfinder as Christmas gifts. They are 4, 6, 8, & 16. Our family loves board games and we really wanted to encourage their storytelling skills and imagination. This game was very easy to learn and teach to each of the boys. Although the 4 year old played on my team, he would make up a story to go wit each attempt to capture. Although we used the words capture, the boys eventually told stories that went beyond just capturing the characters on the card. We also named each of the cards a special name of their own - The Enchantress, The Wizard, the Dark Knight, The Light Night, & The Elf. It made for consistency across the stories being told by each boy on his turn. The pictures are fantastically illustrated and the cards have a very nice feel.I did notice that another review complained about the directions for this game. I found the directions very clear and well illustrated. Our boys who are all solid readers, still preferred to reference the picture in the directions of what constitutes a Strike, Stomp, or a Scream. Once we had the basic directions down, we added the bit about telling a story to coincide with the cards being played and acted upon and we had played 3 games before bedtime just that first night. When I came home from work today, I found that the boys had been playing this game all morning on their own! This is a really fun game. 5Family fun!We have had Sleeping Queens for a while and the whole family loves it. This is a great step up for a family wanting a slightly more involved game. Easy to learn and understand, and it comes with two reference cards to remind you of your play options each turn which was helpful for the kids. My 6 and 9 year old both loved it! 5Great Math MechanicsThis a fantastic early elementary level math/probability/push your luck game. The premise is simple: Choose a monster card you want to capture. You can theb play one to six cards of the same number, in a run, or in a flush. You then roll dice equal to the number of cards played. You then total the Dice and compare it to the monster card. Equal to or higher wins you the card. It's simple enough for my six year old to play (with help from me) against my wife, and it clearly is teaching her the basics theories of probability and early ideas of "push your luck" versus "play it safe strategies." Once she has another year of school down, she should have no problem playing it on her own against us. Oh, and my wife wanted to play it with me once the kids were in bed as a nice light distraction game! A huge A++ for quality math based mechanics, with another + thrown in for cute art. 5Take a walk through a mystical forest!We have hundreds of games, so believe me when l tell you, this game is amazing! Played with kids 7, 10 & 11 and they all loved it. They've just recently outgrown Sleeping Queens that we've played to death. Dragonwood is the perfect next step up. Thank you Gamewright! There's a reason l have almost all of their games. They know what they're doing in game design. The dice are gorgeous, the card art is great. You really feel like you're walking through a magical wood capturing spooky spiders, finding enchantments and battling a fierce blue dragon. 5It's a huge hit in the house.My GOSH my 7 year old son is obsessed with this game. We recently (in the last several months) became a major gamer family. It's a way to bond with my 4 and 7 year old sons. This is one of many games I purchased and by far the one that is most played. Now, for me personally - I can get bored with this one. But it is just right for my 7 year old. My 4 year old also plays but I often need to remind him of sequences for the 3 methods of attack. He tends to use the "Scream" most of all because it's easier for him to remember to use the same color. But he still has a lot of fun. This game can go on for a LONG time too. I have gotten to the point I remove many cards out of the event deck so we have a shorter play time.The dice are lovely red and smooth. The card artwork is pretty. The entire box and set up is well made and just nice quality. We've definitely played our money's worth out of it already. 5Great Strategy & Fun for Family & Friends Alike!After playing Dragonwood over 30 times in the first week, I think it is safe to post a review. First of all, this game is extremely easy to learn from the instruction manual, and even easier to teach others how to play. I have played this game with my wife, my two sons (11 & 9), and 3 other friends who are into strategy games. It is so easy to pick up and play. It is a good mix of deck building, random dice rolling and strategy. It stays fresh enough that you can keep playing, without boring, at least for 2-3 times in a setting. The art style is simple and elegant, and a great attraction to anyone who is into medieval style. The game experience is equally fun for 2-4 players. The instructions include 2-3 variants as well for more experienced players. I have not attempted those yet but look forward to doing that soon. 5Slow going and unbalancedYou will note in the photo I have included that the Hungry Bears, Pack of Wolves, Wild Boar and Fierce Jaguar are all worth 3 victory points. Capturing these however, is different for each. The 'strike' method of capture has 3 different amounts; 1 is 6 1 is 7 and 2 are 8 to capture. For the 'Stomp" method they have two amounts; 2 have 7 and 2 have 6. Finally for the 'Scream" method there are again three amounts, 7, 8 and 9.The three methods of capture, scream, strike and stomp all have the same odds of being gathered in the needed order to use them. The amounts needed to capture should be based on the VP of the card in question not randomly selected per card. This would allow for a balanced game.Next, for the level of this game, the game play is rather slow. We got so bored in the first game that we lost interest and did not complete the first game. A game this simple should be much faster paced, the Lucky Ladybugs are an attempt to do this and while they do add a bit of speed to the game it is still slow.In short, I was hopeful that this would be a good fast or at least quick game that could be used to entertain and teach on a lazy afternoon and used as an alternative to electronic entertainment. It failed at a very slow pace that was grueling and not fun. We were disappointed. 2
