Choose your forest animal and make your way through the forest, but be on the watch for predators that might halt your progress or trails to speed up your journey. Be the first to cross the mountains and win the game.

The terrain is made with a series of interchangeable blocks so that you can customize the game and make it different each time. The cards also include facts about each of the playable character that not only effect the game, but will teach you about the forest animal kingdom.

What’s Unique?
The challenge we were presented with for this project was to make a creative variation of the classic Chutes and Ladders board game.
