About the game

Forage is a card game from AEG, designed by Molly Johnson and Robert Melvin and Shawn Stankewich (2026). It plays 1–6 players in 15–30 minutes, for ages 10+. BoardGameGeek players rate it 7.2 out of 10 and call it medium-light (2.1 / 5 weight).

What makes Forage stand out from other roll-and-write games is the way your options and combo opportunities change as you gain more cards!

Forage is a unique puzzly roll-and-write game where you select and write on cards in an ever-changing tableau! Players take on the role of foragers exploring the Pacific Northwest wilderness gathering plants, berries, and mushrooms to build up their knowledge and experience, craft recipes, and give gifts of nature’s bounty. Rules are simple: Roll the forage dice and reveal a unique trail tile each round. Choose a combination of dice and carry out one of the actions: exploration, pantry storage, or gift-giving. As you carry out actions, you’ll earn bonuses that allow you to power up or make additional moves to complete your goals! Use your time wisely - there are several journeys you can take to collect knowledge, experience, and prestige. It is easy to learn, but challenging for everyone!
