Weirdwood Manor by Greyridge Games Coming Soon to Kickstarter


Greyridge Games announced tgat the award-winning Weirdwood Manor app and book series will be made into a board game.

Weirdwood Manor: The Board Game is a cooperative game of adventure and strategy for 1 to 5 players from ages 14+ and takes 90 - 120 minutes to play. You’ll battle against 1 of 3 unique magical Fae Monsters and their Clockwork Scarabs invading the Manor.

Offering high variability and replayability, the game features a unique temporal mechanic that reflects the magical, ever-shifting corridors and rooms of the Manor. Every time a player or the Fae Monster takes an action, time will move forward in the game and the connections between the rooms will shift via unique rotating corridor rings on the game board.

Fighting against time, you’ll make use of dice drafting, card play, resource management, and location actions as you and your companions move through the ever-shifting Manor in pursuit of ultimate victory over the Fae Monster!

As the game progresses, the Fae Monster’s strength will grow and things will become more dire for the players so they will have to work together to solve the challenges in front of them. The game offers deep tactical choice and a degree of unpredictability that will make traditional leader quarterbacking virtually impossible; the players will truly have to strategize as a group to succeed as the threat deepens!

A Weirdwood Manor: The Board Game web series began on YouTube in 2021 under the publishing banner of the newly-created Greyridge Games. The series currently has fourteen episodes discussing the design process, with more episodes to come and much more to unveil before the Kickstater launch in Spring 2023.
