About the game
Reports of a group of rebels gathering in the woods outside your city are causing quite the stir. They claim to be fighting for the poor, but let’s be real – who needs them when you’ve got your own benevolent rule? Besides, these rebels ruin your fashion image, with their penchant for green tights and capes. Maybe it’s time to send in the royal guard to deal with this little revolt. Oh, and then some breakfast. This expansion for Kingdom Legacy offers 5 rounds of gameplay and 30 new cards. It is recommended to have plenty of sword production to take on this challenge, as many of the cards are enemies. Purge 8 (focus on 2 wood production cards) and 2 permanent cards. The focus means you must choose 2 wood production cards until 2 such cards have been chosen, then the purge continues without focus. —description from the publisher

Questions and answers
Kingdom Legacy: Ridding the Woods supports 1 player according to the catalogue. This is the publisher’s listed player count, so the game is designed for exactly that number of participants. Variants for other group sizes, if any, are described in the rulebook of your edition, so check it before setting up a different configuration.
The listed playing time for Kingdom Legacy: Ridding the Woods is 90–150 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Kingdom Legacy: Ridding the Woods for ages 14 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Kingdom Legacy: Ridding the Woods has a complexity rating of 2.0 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a medium-light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
Kingdom Legacy: Ridding the Woods belongs to these categories: Card Game, Economic, and Exploration. Its main mechanics are Hand Management, Push Your Luck, and Events. Categories describe the theme and setting of a game, while mechanics describe what players actually do on their turns. Each mechanic links to a catalogue hub with similar games, which helps when you want something comparable.
The credited designers of Kingdom Legacy: Ridding the Woods are: Jonathan Fryxelius. These credits come from the published game data and name the people responsible for the game’s design, not its illustrators or publishers.

The catalogue lists Kingdom Legacy: Ridding the Woods as an expansion for Kingdom Legacy: Feudal Kingdom. Expansions add new content, rules or scenarios to the base game and usually cannot be played on their own, so you need Kingdom Legacy: Feudal Kingdom to use it. Check that your edition of Kingdom Legacy: Feudal Kingdom is compatible, as some expansions were revised between editions.
