Wayward (2019)

About this game

Wayward is a fully cooperative board game based on the Image Comics series of the same name in which teenagers imbued with supernatural power defend the world from Yokai, Japanese mythological creatures and spirits. In the game, players assume the roles of the comic's heroes and work together to defeat villains controlled by the game itself.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 1 to 5. It has a designed solo mode.
• Rules load. At 2.7/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 14 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
