The beautiful peninsula of Greenwood is run by a circle of druids and advertised as a sanctuary for magical animals and ideal vacation spot. But that version of Greenwood is a lie.

In Greenwood, you play as Primal Spirits and lead your companions to save Greenwood.

On each turn, you face the difficult decision of whether to use the abilities of your own companions, to use the abilities of other players’ companions, or to send one of your companions into the forest to improve your wayfinding and rescue mystical creatures.

In the advanced game, each clan has a unique ability – a small additional rule that has a major impact on the game. What makes this special is that players can use the unique ability of any clan currently in play, not just their own.

The game is played over the course of 3 nights and whoever scored the most victory points wins.

Edward ★★★★★

The twist that the sanctuary is actually a lie caught me off guard in the best way, and the druid circle running the peninsula makes for a genuinely eerie backdrop. I went in expecting a light vacation read and got something much darker and smarter.

Sophia Y. ★★★★★

The druids running this so-called sanctuary had me fooled for the first fifty pages, then the whole vacation-spot pitch curdles into something much darker. The way the peninsula's magic keeps shifting underfoot is genuinely unsettling. Easily the best fantasy I've read this year.

Ava K. ★★★★★

I went in expecting a lighthearted getaway and came out genuinely unsettled in the best way—the way the druids’ cheerful facade slowly crumbles is masterfully paced. The world-building around the sanctuary’s hidden truth kept me turning pages past midnight, and the atmosphere feels almost tangible.
