Had a great time with this game! It has a great concept to it. I did have one session that ended REALLY early, I was playing the lumber jack, I moved one tile in and got the lumberjack axe (very fitting I know) my friend then moved in and immediately got the final boss tile, they then paid the gold to get out. I went in and used my axe and my ability and just steam rolled the final boss without taking a hit using my 3D6 to it's 2. The whole game was 3 turns long lol. Perhaps if the ability and rules specified combat rounds over the entire combat it would have been much harder to kill the boss. I'm not sure exactly how I would improve on the final boss coming up immediately, I like the idea of multiple bosses in the run, maybe it could be a thing where the number of bosses scale with the number of players and you win when you defeat all of the bosses instead of just one. The cards are super clean and have great art work was shocked at how good it all looked.

Thank you so much! Yeah the idea of topdecking the final boss card was always a worry of mine, I’ll definitely keep your feedback in mind for when I go for adding more to this.

I also really appreciate your feedback about the art! Most of the time I spent this week was trying my best to make sure it all looked good, and even then, there are still some things I’m going to want to improve.


Again, thank you so much for trying Lost in the Woods!

I'm a huge board game guy! I have a big physical collection and I also have about 1200 hours in TTS, so I was very excited to see some board games in this jam!
