If youвЂ™ve read our Forbidden Island review you may get the feeling of dГ©jГ vu. If thatвЂ™s captured your imagination, you will probably want to read more of my review of Forbidden Desert, a family co-operative game for 2-5 players. Without radio contact the only way weвЂ™re escaping this place is on the legendary solar powered flying machine rumoured to be buried in the sand beneath us. So, we gather our water supplies and set off. The satellite phone was not working through the swirling sand interference. The helicopter was not so fortunate however. A crash-landing that everyone walks away from is a good one, weвЂ™re lucky. The bleeping from the helicopter console didnвЂ™t help our mood, nor did the calls for mayday. This sandstorm was going to be a problem. An omnipresent concern fills the cockpit. As we near the co-ordinates, the sky darkens. Working out the rough location was surprisingly easy. In our revelry we change our course for the Forbidden Desert.ДЄs blue sea turns into ochre arid desert below us, our foolhardy optimism starts to fade. As we soar over the ocean our navigator tells of another legendary treasure buried in the sands of an ancient desert city. Snagging all four treasures from the ArchaensвЂ™ sinking island was quite the coup. Advert: this game was gifted by Coiledspring Games, this has not affected our opinion.ДЄs the helicopter takes off from the Forbidden Island we are buoyed by our shared victory.
