20 Strong: Tanglewoods Red

About this expansion

20 Strong: Tanglewoods Red is a solo-player game for one person, with games lasting around 60 minutes. Set in the dangerous Tanglewoods, it follows a journey to find a missing grandmother whose cottage lies deep in the forest.

Tanglewoods Red is one deck in the Tanglewoods trilogy for the 20 Strong solo system. Every deck in the series uses the same basic rules, a single set of 20 dice, and one chip, while adding its own rules and twists to create a distinct experience.

To play, shuffle the deck and progress through its cards one at a time. Each card presents a unique challenge, which may take the form of an enemy, a special scenario, or another requirement you must meet.

• Designed for exactly one player
• Approximately 60 minutes per game
• A shuffled deck of unique challenges
• A dice-based challenge system using 17 dice with varying odds of success
• Three adjustable stat dice that complete the set of 20 dice

Most challenges require a certain number of successes to complete. You earn those successes by rolling the dice, managing the system’s adjustable statistics as you work through the deck and confront whatever awaits in the woods.

With its focused solo format and scenario-driven deck, 20 Strong: Tanglewoods Red offers a self-contained way to experience the 20 Strong system. Its forest setting, dangerous challenges, and search for a missing grandmother provide the narrative frame for a dice-focused journey through the Tanglewoods.
