Wilderness: A Game of Survival (Second Edition)

Action Points

You get a limited number of action points each turn and choose how to spend them — prioritizing is everything.

Area Movement

You move your pieces across different regions on the board, trying to position yourself in the best spots.

Events

Random events shake things up during the game — sometimes helpful, sometimes chaotic, always interesting.

Grid Movement

Pieces move on a grid of squares — straightforward movement that still leaves room for deep tactical thinking.

Hand Management

You have a hand of cards and deciding which to play, save, or discard is the core puzzle.

Hexagon Grid

The board uses hexagons instead of squares — this gives you more directions to move and think about.

Modular Board

The board is made of separate pieces arranged differently each game — no two setups are ever quite the same.

Movement Points

You get a set number of movement points to spend on moving your pieces — plan your path carefully.

Player Elimination

Players can be knocked out before the game ends — play carefully or you might be watching from the sidelines.
