Forbidden Island is an impressive cooperative board game. Unlike most games that require competition, players must work together to win. Players move their pieces around the 'island', which is made up of many beautifully printed boards. As the game progresses, more parts of the island submerge, making them unavailable. Players use strategies to prevent the island from sinking while trying to collect treasures and items. As the water level rises, the game becomes more difficult and sacrifices are necessary.
One of the unique features of the game is the attention to detail of the physical components. It comes in a durable and organized box, ideal for storage. The plastic treasure pieces and wooden pawns are well-made and fit perfectly inside the box. The cards are sturdy, well-printed, and easy to understand. The island boards are the real highlight: they are printed with vibrant colors, each with a unique and pleasing image.
With multiple difficulty levels, different characters with special abilities, and many variations, Forbidden Island has high replay value. The game can be played by two to four players (although it can accommodate up to five). More players mean a faster and more challenging game, though extra help can make a difference. It’s a fun game, engaging for players of almost any age.
The successor to this game is Forbidden Desert, which was released in 2013 by Gamewright.
