The Lost Words is a card game based on the stunning book by best-selling author Robert Macfarlane and acclaimed illustrator of over forty beloved classics, Jackie Morris. The Lost Words is a simple draw/event/discard game with a take-that element via the action cards. The game is won by placing your spell (poem) cards over beautifully illustrated nature cards before your opponents. The players' quests will be blocked — or aided — by special action cards that create a most exciting dynamic throughout the game. The first player to match their four nature cards with the correct spell cards wins. --description from the publisher
