Kickstarter 2018 All -in. This is my favorate of the series so far. (Awaiting IV, have I-III) I've played solo, 2-4 players group, and one vs all. I really enjoy this game. It has a slight bit of a learning curve and definately some spreadsheeting/record keeping going on.. If you know how the game works and how it goes, it's truly a fun game with lots of replayability especially with the Valor system + difficulty adjustments.

HEXplore It: The Forests of Adrimon is a board game for 1-7 players aged 12+, lasting about 60 minutes. Explore enchanted forests, face the sorceress Adrimon, and collect relic fragments to defeat her.
The game game is in consignmentStock but only few copies are available
- 162 cards (63.5mmx88.0mm)
- 18 cards (70.0mmx110.0mm)
Now, however, the peoples of the forest kneel to one enigmatic sorceress named Adrimon. All who enter slowly succumb to her presence, eventually becoming mindless slaves bound to her will. The cities are now lost, havens only to the mind-wiped. They work tirelessly on the Magi's automatons, enormous constructs fueled by the souls she has bound.
There have been heroes who have faced her and failed. In each attempt, they sacrificed themselves, vowing an oath that just might lead to Adrimon's undoing. These oaths gave power to their equipment creating relics that can diminish her magic, but they have been broken to pieces and scattered throughout the land. It is whispered that the only way Adrimon can be defeated is to find these relic fragments and piece them together.
Enter the Forests of Adrimon and attempt to gather the relic fragments, creating powerful equipment that may help destroy the sorceress. Players will be able to gain Favors from the spirits of the heroes who came before them, sneak into the mind-wiped cities, move though the fey-realm and interact with the Dryad (a powerful ally), battle tough foes and even save some of them from the Magi's wrath. There are hundreds of unique scenarios that can affect each game.
Team up to create your heroes and unseat the terrible sorceress, freeing the mind-wiped from their terrible enslavement.

This finally clicked with me the last time I played it. I may like it better than Dead King. I think the goal is a little clearer in this one than it is in VotDK.
I know, I know, the game isn't even out yet. My fear was this volume would be more of the same but they really shake things up with FoA. So yeah, an enthousiastic 10.
I like Valley of the Dead King and what better way to follow up with than Forests of Adrimon. There are so many more things to do, the timing mechanism is great with the fate cycle, the story continues to impress and the balancing of everything makes everything smoother. I can't wait to see what Sands of Shurax brings to the table!
Forest of Adrimon is not a reskin of the Valley of the Dead King, the new mechanics gives you a new way to make an epic journey. Each volume of Hexplore it grant endless opportunities to create an RPG-lite adventure with great inmersion In this forest, all the time you feel like an intruder, this place is not meant for heroes.
