The Grimm Forest

Players take on rival branches of the Three Little Pigs’ family and compete to be the first to build three houses using straw, wood, and brick. Each round players secretly play movement cards to travel to location boards and gather resources from fields, brickyards, and the Grimm Forest while using deduction to anticipate opponents’ plans. During the build phase players spend collected resources to add wall sections to their houses, triggering Friend cards that can assist their own project or be sent to another player. Fable cards and hidden actions let players disrupt rivals, avoid monsters such as the Big Bad Wolf, and manipulate resource flow over a 45–60 minute game for 2–4 players.
