About this expansion

20 Strong: Tanglewoods White is a solo adventure game for 1 player, with games lasting about 60 minutes. Released in 2025, it uses the 20 Strong system to send you through a dangerous forest filled with enemies and other challenges.

The jealous Evil Stepmother has banished you into the Tanglewoods, then sent a variety of goons to finish the job. Your goal is to navigate the treacherous trees, reach her castle, defeat her most trusted minions, and finally bring the Evil Stepmother to her knees.

Tanglewoods White is one deck in a trilogy of Tanglewoods decks for the solo-player 20 Strong system. Every deck uses the same basic rules, a single set of 20 dice, and one chip, while adding distinctive rules and twists that make each deck play differently.

  • Progress through a shuffled deck of unique challenge cards.
  • Face enemies, special scenarios, and other requirements.
  • Roll dice to earn the successes needed to complete challenges.
  • Use 17 dice with varying odds of hitting alongside 3 adjustable stat dice.

Each card presents a fresh obstacle, requiring you to manage the dice system as you work toward the castle. Challenges generally demand a set number of successes, making every roll part of your attempt to survive the forest and continue advancing.

With its fairy-tale conflict, focused solo format, and deck-specific twists, 20 Strong: Tanglewoods White offers a compact journey from woodland danger to a final confrontation with the villainous stepmother.
