Players all work together or by oneself to defend their castle from goblins, orcs and other monsters creeping out of the surrounding forest towards the castle.
Dwarves, Humans, Elves, and Giants, battle, but Wizards trumps all. A player looks into the future and places the number of tricks he predicts he will take on the score pad of Truth. The best wizard, at peering into the future, wins.
Apprentices strive to add and mix up the four needed ingredients into their cauldrons. They must be careful, though, because there are hidden stumbling points magnets underneath the game board which will cause them to toss and lose the required items.
The first apprentice to succeed in mixing his brew wins. Suspenseful and spellbinding fun! The award winning game of Whoowasit? It is a unique feature to the game. Players need to uncover clues, discover the magical ring, and defeat the evil Wizard, all while collecting food in order to communicate with animals. Exploring a castle has never been so much fun! For players who like collectible card games, Summoner Wars is an ideal gift for Christmas.
The master set comes with all six civilizations with easily to learn instructions. The different factions offer different strategies for game play. As some players describe it, a two player game is like a mixture of chess with surprising magic. Fantastic and challenging. Opening the above fantasy themed games on Christmas morning will only be the beginning of the adventure.
Technically this came out in , but was Risk Legacy 's year. Gaming groups across the world were cracking open the game's briefcase-like box and embarking on campaigns with no idea where this game was going to take them. Risk Legacy is a clean-cut example of how joyous and experimental today's board game scene is.
In its tidy box are not just whole packs of cards of sealed cards, but entire sealed compartments , which you only open after certain things happen in the wars of your world. In other words, as you wage wars on this private Earth of yours, you'll change it forever.
Cards are torn up. Winners sign the board. Within just a few games, your copy of Risk Legacy will be entirely unique. I don't own Risk Legacy , but my friend does. The other week he lifted up the box inlay, looking for more space to put the game's latest surprise, and found yet another secret pack of cards taped to the bottom of the box.
When my friends finish their campaign, they're going to burn it. Finally, we arrive at Mage Knight. Probably definitely maybe the actual game of the year. The Czech designer, Vlaada Cvatil, first came to my attention with Space Alert , a kind of soviet Star Trek where players crew a ship together in real time, trying not to fly into moons or be eaten by slime while remembering to nudge the computer so the screen saver doesn't come on.
He also made Galaxy Trucker , a game where players first build ships from a junkyard of cardboard tiles, take off in a convoy, then collapse into hysterics as an asteroid breaks someone's ship clean in half. Both of these games are skewed, genius, and hilarious. Mage Knight is interesting because the publisher Wizkids came to Vlaada and asked for something achingly traditional: a fantasy game of wizards questing across a landscape.
Then however many months or days or seconds later, he emails them this" a design for the maddest, most intimidatingly intelligent "traditional" fantasy game ever made. You know how, in Tolkein's fiction, Gandalf oscillates between terrifying magic spells and being just a guy with a stick? Mage Knight is a Gandalf simulator. Everyone's wizard is a deck of cards, and it's your job to make the most of the cards you draw, the amoral eddies of the shared mana pool, the time of day, the terrain, your minions, treasures and opponents, all to the point that you take your friends' breath away every turn.
When you succed in Mage Knight , it's staggeringly epic. Your wizard treks to a mountain monastary to learn the darkest magic, only to use it to slaughter the monks themselves.
Or better yet, he warps time in on itself, buying yourself an extra hour of sunshine to cast that holy spell that'll allow you to assault an entire walled city, with just you and your merry band of lumberjacks or mercenaries or whoever else you've tricked or threatened into following you around.
But the beauty of Mage Knight is that when you fail, it's still epic. Crawling away from an ambush with some orcs, your hand overflowing with wound cards, you'll be facing down a challenge that's unique to anyone at the table. Come back from that, and it won't matter how powerful your friends become. You'll have the moral victory.
