Potions of Azerland (2025)

About this game

In Potions of Azerland you will, you guessed it, make potions! Gather resources from the forest, increase your knowledge in various potion types, go to the market to collect and trade goods, then make your potions to drink for unique powers or fulfill the orders of travelers who come to your town! Potions of Azerland utilized a unique simultaneous action selection mechanism where understanding the goals of your opponents in each round will give you the upper hand. Decide whether to drink your newly made potions for temporary boosts and prolonged powers or give them to an ever changing group of travelers for points and other bonuses. After 6 rounds the player who has garnered the most prestige will be the winner! —description from the publisher

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 1 to 4. It has a designed solo mode.
• Rules load. At 2.7/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 14 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
