About this board game

Fairy Trails is a 1–2 player board game with a playing time of about 20 minutes, set in an enchanted forest shaped by hidden paths.

Life in the forest is not easy for its inhabitants. Elves and gnomes each have their own network of hidden paths, and they do not want to be disturbed by outsiders. Their houses become protected as players complete the roads that connect the forest.

During the game, players play cards to expand the road network. As new cards are added, the paths grow and roads can eventually be completed. Each completed road creates an opportunity to protect houses that border it.

  • Card-driven road building: Play cards to expand the network of roads through the forest.
  • House protection: When a road is completed, place a stone on each of your houses bordering that road.
  • Clear winning goal: The first player to place stones on all of their houses wins.

The challenge is to find your way through the forest while developing the road network that leads to your houses. Every completed road matters, because it can help secure multiple houses at once when they border that route.

With its compact play time and focus on expanding connected paths, Fairy Trails presents a concise game about navigation, road completion, and protecting hidden homes. Will you find your way through the enchanted forest, or become lost among its paths?
