Fled is a tense tile-placement game from Odd Bird about breaking out of a vile Victorian prison: build the map with tiles, stash contraband, trade it for tools, and dodge warders while the Governor’s whistle drives the pressure.
How to play
On your turn, add one tile to the prison, then discard other tiles to take actions—moving through doors, windows, corridors and tunnels. Certain rooms let you trade contraband for the tools you’ll need to pass the outer wall. If the Governor calls roll and you’re in the wrong place, a nearby warder might shackle you or send you to solitary.
Why this game stands out
A dynamic map, razor-sharp tactical choices and constant time pressure create a thrilling race to escape—or at least outscore your rivals.
- Clever tile placement with an ever-growing modular board
- Strong theme: trade contraband for tools, manipulate warders
- Race tension: score for collections and/or escape
- Working whistle for roll call adds table presence
- Expandable with The Specter (solo) and The Governor’s Hound
