PLAYED FOR YOU

Der geheimnisvolle Spiegel

Guess at magical drawings

In the attic of a, old, empty, a little spooky house children find a mirror in which mysterious signs light up when you move a stick, their magic wand across the mirror's back side, so they begin to draw:

Each little magician now takes one of the ladders, that is, a board with a slit, and then chooses one of the magicians' tiles and slides it into his ladder.

In your turn you draw a symbol tile showing a magical symbol, take a good look at it and put it then face-down on the table and pick up the magic wand. Now you switch on the magic wand und use it to draw the symbol on the back side of the mirror. All other players face the front side and only see a moving light dot tracing something and need to guess what is being drawn on the back side. All players can call out suggestions, without any given order. When one of the suggestions is correct, the painter shows the symbol tile to all others and then slides it into his ladder. The player who gave the correct guess becomes the next painter. When the symbol is not guessed you may draw anew two times - if then the symbol was not guessed correctly, you must put back the tile and draw a new one.

When his magician tile appears again at the other end of the ladder, this player has won the game.

Once again Drei Magier live up to their name, this is another enchanting game with a magical topic - I do especially love that story line connecting several games, and the game itself is a very good training for association, imagination and pattern recognition, besides providing lots of fun and the positive excitement of having guessed correctly.
