Need allies? Explore your own back yard! Discover unique strategies and make the Woodland wilder by adding hirelings. Best with fewer players, great with more!

Hirelings can be added to games at any player count. With fewer players, the hirelings add new pieces to the map, ramping up the tension and giving you more tactical options. With more players, some hireling cards will flip over to reveal new special abilities to gain, letting you explore unique and powerful strategies.

In the Homeland Hirelings Pack, three new hirelings enter the fray: the River Roamers, Sunny Advocates, and the neutral Prosperous Farmers. Each comes with a double-sided tarot card and new meeples, adding even more variety to your games of Root.

This is an expansion. A copy of Root the board game is required to play.
