Zaubertrank der vier Elemente (2016)

About this game

Description from the publisher: In Zaubertrank der vier Elemente, the wizards meet for a competition to discover who can brew the strongest magic potion. The ingredients, kitchen tools, and magic tools are arranged in a magic hexagon, and every object corresponds to one of four elements: fire, water, earth or air. During the game, wizards try to capture as many high-scoring objects as possible for their secret recipe, and they use particular combinations of objects to win special power stones. Master wizards also compete by using the super-powerful element discs and hidden mission cards. When all the magic objects have been removed from the hexagon, whichever wizard has brewed the most intoxicating potion wins!

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• Rules load. At 2.0/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 10 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
