Description

--- In a forest adjacent to Carcassonne, overrun by thieves and bandits under Robin Hood's influence, players pursue points in a perilous adventure culminating at the burned inn, balancing triumph and despair. Key mechanics include: - *Thematic exploration* Navigating a forest teeming with thieves, bandits, and Robin Hood's allies. - *Scoring pursuit* Accumulating points through adventure challenges near the walled city. - *Risk-reward tension* Potential victory in point gains or total loss of hope at the burned inn. This Carcassonne-linked scenario immerses players in a vibrant forest next to the walled city, now infested with thieves, bandits, and figures believed to be Robin Hood and his controlling friends. Participants engage in a high-stakes adventure, striving to maximize points amid lurking dangers, with the ominous burned inn posing a critical juncture where success yields rewards or failure brings utter hopelessness, as envisioned by designer Jose Barros Alonso. ---
