Game Schooler Recommendation

Adventure Land, released by HABA, isn’t the most well-known game from designers Wolfgang Kramer and Michael Kiesling. However, simple gameplay with three unique modules makes Adventure Land an excellent family game ideal for gameschooling. Your kids come face to face with mathematics, managing risks, and adapting to a constantly evolving board as new fog monsters, herbs, and gold appears each round. In addition, the game board is a beautifully illustrated grid that is sure to improve spatial perception skills. If that wasn’t enough, Adventure Land includes solid wooden pieces and quality components.

Game Overview

In Adventure Land, King Agamis rules from his castle. Rich cities, vast forests and rugged mountain ranges, the majestic river and the fog areas dominate the country. The large river is rich with gold, the forests are known for their medicinal herbs and there is an abundance of mines in the mountains, where the best swords, far and wide, are forged. But many dangers lurk there; the fog areas on both banks of the large river are home to the dangerous fog creatures which attack innocent adventurers. This has been happening more often lately and King Agamis fears that the fog creatures will soon be a threat to the cities. Therefore he calls upon adventurers from all over to come to Adventure Land to protect the cities, acquire companions and fight the fog creatures.
