Hocus Focus (1998)

About this game

The games consists of 30 cards each showing a wizard. The wizards are all different, being small, medium or large, and having different coloured shoes, cloaks, hats, and spells. Twelve cards are placed face up in the centre of the table, along with the face-down deck. One player turns over the card on top of the deck. All players now try to identify a card from the table which has nothing in common with the new card.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 8.
• Rules load. At 1.0/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 6 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
