Dare to discover Forbidden Island! Join a team of fearless adventurers on a do-or-die mission to capture four sacred treasures from the ruins of this perilous paradise. Your team will have to work together and make some pulse-pounding maneuvers, as the island will sink beneath every step! Race to collect the treasures and make a triumphant escape before you are swallowed into the watery abyss!


It’s a great honor to introduce the latest creation by cooperative game master, Matt Leacock. There are so many things we love about this unique game: from the rich illustrations, to the collaborative nature of play, to the innovative set of rules, to the infinite possibilities generated by the tiles and cards. Don’t be surprised if your pulse starts pounding faster soon after you start playing – it’s a game that instantly generates an electrifying atmosphere of tension and excitement!


For more info, you can check out the game's official website thru this link.

Video Review by Hayden

This game is from the creator of the award-winning "Pandemic", Matt Leacock.  The game is affordably cheap and ideal for the family!  Cool components too! Smiley

Today, I received my copy of FORBIDDEN ISLAND!  Just looking at the shrink-wrapped tin casing made me drool.  Upon opening the lid, I was just amazed of the excellent game components included... from the quality of the prints, the materials used for the cards, the game pieces, content write-up, artwork, smell, and everything.  I can say the quality of this game can be compared to popular games published by Days of Wonder.  Gamewright did a nice job with Forbidden Island!

The gameplay is very solid and somewhat similar to "Pandemic", being designed by the same game designer.  But "Forbidden Island" oozes with much more theme.  I like the art style very much being almost similar to Mike Mignola's Hellboy (for the Adventurer Cards, game pieces, and the background story) and "Ghost Stories" (for the Flood Deck cards and Tiles).

The mechanics of the game feels classicly solid.  I enjoyed my first run with Forbidden Island and can see it being easily accepted by my gaming family. For the price, this game is a great value!  HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Smiley
