Root is designed by Cole Wehrle (Pax Pamir, Infamous Traffic, and John Company) and brought to life by master illustrator Kyle Ferrin (The Vast series, Stitches).
Cole Wehrle designer of Root explains: “For a long time I have been thinking about making an accessible, interactive strategy game. I wanted something easy to set up, easy to teach, and easy to tear down, but also something that’s able to tell compelling stories and to allow players to explore the world of asymmetric games.”
In Root, players drive the narrative, and the differences between each role create an unparalleled level of interaction and replay ability. Leder Games invites you and your family to explore the fantastic world of Root!
