Need allies? Just dig out a gold coin! Discover unique strategies and make the Woodland wilder by adding hirelings. Best with fewer players, great with more!
Hirelings can be added to games at any player count. With fewer players, the hirelings add new pieces to the map, ramping up the tension and giving you more tactical options. With more players, some hireling cards will flip over to reveal new special abilities to gain, letting you explore unique and powerful strategies.

Strike from the deep with the Sunward Expedition or preserve your crafts with Mole Artisans.
Furious Protector/Stoic Protector
Cut down your foes with the Furious Protector or bring peace through strength with the Stoic Protector.
Corvid Spies/Raven Sentinels

ROOT is a fully asymmetric strategy board game designed by Cole Wehrle, lavishly illustrated by Kyle Ferrin, and brought to life by the team at Leder Games. Stalk the woods as one of the Vagabonds, seize the initiative with the Eyrie birds of prey, rule over your subjects as the Marquise de Cat, or command the Woodland Alliance to create a new order. In Root, the players drive the narrative, and the differences among the roles create unparalleled interaction and replayability.
