WolfWalkers: My Story is a board game released in 2021 for 2 players, 25 minutes per game, and ages 8 and up. It was designed by Maja Milavec and its main mechanics are Tile Placement, Square Grid, and Pattern Building.
In WolfWalkers: My Story, two players compete to create a grid using cards from a shared deck, with those cards bearing illustrations from the Wolfwalkers movie. Each turn, you take one of the six available double-sided cards and place it in your grid, taking either one of the two Objective cards that indicate how you can score points or one of the four Story cards that will help you fulfill these objectives. Objectives come in three types: shapes that reward a specific arrangement of cards, arrows that reward the placement of certain icons in the same row or column as the objective, and equations that reward the same number of certain icons anywhere in your 5x5 grid. Each card you place after the first must be adjacent to another card. After both players have completed their grid, the game ends and the player with the most points wins. The game includes an expansion that provides more options for players and more interaction, with Permanent cards that change gameplay in general and Opportunity cards that allow you a special once-per-game ability. For a small change in gameplay, add one Permanent card of your choice; for more advanced play, add one Permanent and three Opportunity cards at random. With 15 permanent cards and 25 opportunities cards, no two games will be alike. With a second copy of WolfWalkers: My Story, you can play the game with up to four players.
WolfWalkers: My Story supports 2 players 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 WolfWalkers: My Story is 25 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 WolfWalkers: My Story for ages 8 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.
WolfWalkers: My Story has a complexity rating of 1.6 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a 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.
