Im Märchenwald

Remember your way through a fairy-tale forest together and rescue the princess before the witch stops you.

A cooperative memory game for small children: a seven by seven grid of cards forms a fairy-tale forest, and everyone works together to reach the sick princess. Goblin, witch and crow keep turning up and pushing you back.

Fully cooperative, nobody gets knocked outWorks solo as well as in a groupStorybook framing for ages five and up

Who it's for

Families with young children who want a shared adventure rather than a contest, and adults happy to play a supporting role.

Not for you if…

You want anything for adult players. It is pure memory with almost no decisions, the difficulty is very low, and adults will be bored long before the children are.

Vibe's take

Gentle and chatty, with the whole table pointing at cards and cheering when a remembered path pays off.
