The wild wood of Root is home to some deep strategy as the cunning critters of the forest fight for control. But, more than that, what brings the woodland to life is a vibrant, iconic art style that captures the imagination and fun of the beloved board game.



Adapted from Kyle Ferrin's unforgettable illustrations from the original tabletop game, the digital adaptation of Root breathes life into stylized art and animation that makes the board game come alive.



The Steam Awards are a chance to help spread some love for unique titles that capture our imaginations and bring something special to gaming. We hope you agree that Root is a special game that raises the bar for the digital adaptations of tabletop board games. We'd be honored for your consideration and support in nominating Root for a Steam Award for Outstanding Visual Style.

Introduces Co-op Play! Team up to take on powerful automated opponents!

[h3]Electrical Eyrie[/h3] The Electric Eyrie will inspire fear in the most stalwart of players. Like the Eyrie Dynasties, this bot can ramp up its action potential aggressively.

[h3]Automated Alliance[/h3] The Automated Alliance is especially zealous and will revolt frequently. Keep in mind their potential targets so you avoid any unpleasant surprises. Once they do establish a foothold, timing is critical. Don’t let them consolidate their warriors or you’ll be in trouble!

[h3]Vagabot[/h3] The Vagabot makes for a capricious friend or foe. Like a human player, he will reward those who craft items. But be careful, he can make for a dangerous enemy once he gets enough items to boost his maximum hits.
