One of the heroes in your party has been taken captive in a dungeon far beyond the edge of the wild. Now, you’ll have to travel down the forgotten road and traverse dangerous and unforgiving territory to get them back. The Forgotten Road is a hand-management game in which you need to play your action cards and use your special abilities as efficiently as possible to take out monsters, pass skill checks, move to new locations, and defeat bosses of ever-increasing difficulty. The game ends when either you run out of action cards or health and lose — or you defeat the final boss at the end of the road/dungeon deck and win.
