(More customer reviews)I bought this board game for myself (50years old) because I learn best through pictures and interactive material and I wanted to learn more about herbs. I have also played this game with my 4 year old niece. She LOVED it and was faster than me in identifying the herbs that helped with different remedies. She is very competitive so it was great to have a game with a cooperative component in which all win as long as we help each other along the way. The game has a chutes and ladders type layout and is very beautifully illustrated. I was enchanted by the colors. I downloaded the story that goes with the game and was very pleased to discover all the user friendly opportunities for further "herb" learning available on the [...] website. I am very impressed with this game and its creators. Enjoy!

Wildcraft An Herbal Adventure Game, a cooperative board gameWildcraft! An Herbal Adventure Game is a cooperative board game that teaches edible and medicinal Plants. Wildcraft! teaches 25 important edible and medicinal plants and their uses in mostly first aid situations. (Wildcrafting is the harvesting of wild plants). Players learn about plants by connecting the icon on the challenge or "trouble" cards with the icons on the plant cards. If a player has a "burdock" card in their herb basket and draws a "hungry" card, then the player can turn the cards in and move to the next rest space. Though it is a cooperative game, there is plenty of strategy and drama as players travel up the mountain to the Huckleberry Patch and back to Grandma's before nightfall. The only way to get back safely is to help each other out. However, it's ok if you don't make it.
