Reflections in the Looking Glass (2024)

About this game

Reflections in the Looking Glass is a curiously clever card game for 2 players featuring a beautiful cast of colorful characters from Lewis Carroll’s Wonderland stories. The rules are easy to understand and each round plays quickly, but the whimsical strategy wrapped up in the decision of which card to keep and which to give away in each linked pair while deducing if your opponent is trying for a positive or negative score could cause the most rational of adventurers to go slightly mad. At least you’ll be in good company. —description from the back of the box

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Strictly 2 players — no more, no fewer.
• 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 8 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
