The Witches of Blackmore (2012)

About this game

Long, long ago there was a mysterious village called Blackmore situated in a beautiful forest with giant trees and small forest roads. The town was home to a group of witches, and they lived their lives full of magic, sending out dark magic spells. Over all those years, however, no one was able to control the Witches Wheel, until now... In The Witches of Blackmore, you try to control the Witches Wheel as long and as often as you can. Every witch that you catch in your tricks gives you Magic Points, and whoever collects the most Magic Points wins and gains control of the Witches Wheel until the end of time.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 6.
• Rules load. At 1.3/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 8 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
