Der Alchimist (2000)

About this game

official description: Players advance on the life path in order to reach the Temple of Wisdom and, ultimately, the Sunny space (in the upper right corner of the board). To achieve this goal, a player must place the Philosopher's Stone on the most favorable space, play the Fantasy, Energy and Humor cards intelligently, and take advantage of the special spaces while avoiding the Desert spaces.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 6.
• Rules load. At 1.7/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 10 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
