Narration by Joey Clift
Wolves is a family friendly semi-cooperative game for 3-6 people. Players take on the role of leaders of their own communities, working to survive through winter. To win, all players must make it to the end. If everyone survives, then the player who gained the most status during the course of the game is elected chief of all of the communities and gains an additional victory. Status is gained by effectively sharing resources through a gifting mechanic.

Yeah, this sounds great.

I've waited my whole life for a resource management game that isn't based on colonization, resource extraction or maximizing profits. Thank you so much!

[@GetIntoItDuhh]

Can’t wait to play this!!

Looks awesome! I love the recognizing of individual success balanced against losing together.

[@JaeJekyll]

I love the concept of this!

[@GetIntoItDuhh]

Same! I love the idea that any one selfish player can ruin everyone’s chances! Looks like a great teamwork builder!

What is the minimum recommended age? I teach 3rd grade and was thinking about this for my class....

We did not do a child safety test (for small parts etc), so the box says 15+. While the tone and content aren't 'mature', I don't think the game would work well with anyone under about 12. There are complexities to the gifting mechanics that might be difficult for younger players to grasp. You could probably strip it down and make a fully co-op version pretty easily though.
