Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up, lay out the forest board on a flat surface and ensure each player has a collection board. Place the 20 double-sided cards face down, ensuring the digital and analogue sides are shuffled. To maintain the game, store all cardboard pieces and the 3D wolf in the original box to prevent bending or damage. The game is compatible with standard play surfaces and is suitable for 2-4 players. If the game becomes dusty, wipe the board and cards gently with a dry cloth; avoid using water or cleaning chemicals as these can damage the paper-based components.
