Review: Forbidden Indeed - The product I received had dents all over. Was really looking forward to it. I dent’ expect this. Now I’m sad. Review: Fun game whether you're playing with 2 or 5 players. - Forbidden Desert is made by Matt Leacock, who has created a whole host of fun, cooperative board games. The reason I even looked up Forbidden Desert (and the similar Forbidden Island) is because I played Pandemic. While Pandemic lacks a moving board, the rule set is somewhat similar. You get four moves per turn to perform several different actions. The goal of Forbidden Desert is for you and your friends to reassemble your broken flying machine while navigating the perils of the desert. At its simplest level, it reminds me of playing Ravensburger Labyrinth, a great game in its own right; although, that game was about messing with your opponents. Forbidden Desert, on the other hand, requires you to work together... or burn to death trying. I absolutely love the concept of moving tiles. Something about its inherent simplicity while still having a different board every play-through is enjoyable. My friends and I have been getting more and more into board games. Thanks to their variety, imagination, and sometimes strategic complexity, they're making a comeback into our get-together gaming rotation. However, I didn't buy this simply to play with my friends. Sometimes, my wife and I want to disconnect, chill, and play something off-screen. Forbidden Desert (and Island) are perfectly playable with 2 people. 3 or more ups the chaos, but the base experience is still fun with limited players. Rather than get into the mechanics, I highly recommend you Google "how to play forbidden desert." There's a great YouTube video by "Board Simple" that explains the game concept as well as mechanics in detail. I'll leave the link in the comment section below my review as well. Just click the comments link if you're so inclined. •• Conclusion •• Overall, this game is great for 3-5 players... or simply 2. The game play is elegant, and I love the shifting board, ensuring no two play-throughs are the exact same. The rules don't take long to learn, and you won't be diving into the rule book every single play-through to figure things out. I highly recommend it, especially at around the $30 mark. You could do way worse for hours upon hours of playtime. ## Features - Thirst for survival - 2 to 5 players - Playing time: 45 minutes - Playing instructions included - Ages 10 and up ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00B4ECHJI | | Age Range Description | 10+ years | | Are Batteries Required | No | | Batteries Required? | No | | Best Sellers Rank | #143,493 in Toys & Games ( See Top 100 in Toys & Games ) #5,026 in Board Games | | Brand | Gamewright | | CPSIA Cautionary Statement | Choking Hazard - Small Parts, No Warning Applicable | | Colour | Multicolor | | Country of Origin | China | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 3,674 Reviews | | Edition | Standard Edition | | Estimated Playing Time | 45 Minutes | | Genre | Strategy | | Included Components | Card, accessories of board game, boards | | Is Assembly Required | No | | Item Dimensions | 21.6 x 21.6 x 0.3 Centimeters | | Item Part Number | FORD | | Item Weight | 0.01 Ounces | | Language | English | | Manufacturer | Ceaco | | Manufacturer Part Number | CSG-FORD | | Manufacturer recommended age | 10 - 15 years | | Material | Paper, Plastic | | Minimum Age Recomendation | 120 | | Model Number | 415 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Players | 4 players & more | | Operation Mode | manual | | Rulebook Availability | Printed Included | | Set Name | Forbidden Desert | | UPC | 692000176023 759751004156 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Gamewright - **Edition:** Standard Edition - **Genre:** Strategy - **Material:** Paper, Plastic - **Number of Players:** 4 players & more ## Images ![Gamewright Forbidden Desert Board Game, Kid, Strategy, Multicolor - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71EaGFLWGaL.jpg) ![Gamewright Forbidden Desert Board Game, Kid, Strategy, Multicolor - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61psYcPnGZL.jpg) ![Gamewright Forbidden Desert Board Game, Kid, Strategy, Multicolor - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/612ENzFEasL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐ Forbidden Indeed *by S***L on 19 March 2026* The product I received had dents all over.
