Wildspire Waste is a standalone set that can be merged with Ancient Forest for a massive campaign. You and your crew pick from four hunters, each with their own playstyle and unique card deck, and gear up to face monsters that change form and tactics in each encounter. The board acts as a combat arena where positioning and coordination are as vital as card choice. The game requires you to manage the monster’s focus, deciding which hunter draws the beast’s wrath and who lands the final blow. Meanwhile, variable phase order keeps everyone on their toes, as the action sequence can shift each round. Deck construction lets you tailor your abilities, swapping cards for upgrades that mirror the loot you gather by defeating foes. Each monster has specific weak points; hitting those gradually wears the creature down and opens the door to the finishing combo. If you prefer solo play, the solo mode lets you command two hunters at once, maintaining the same team mechanics. The game blends card strategy, grid movement, and tactical combat, all in about 60 to 90 minutes with 1 to 4 players. It’s perfect for those who love cooperative challenges and want to experience the thrill of boss‑hunting with miniatures on the board. ## FAQ ### How many players can join? 1 to 4 players.
