Clumsy With

Fex Fit fürs Lernen

 

(Deutscher TItel: Schusselhexe)

 

In the range of educational game by the name of FEX – short for Förderung exekutiver Funktionen = Fostering of executive functions – this game features observation. The cauldron tiles are laid out on the cauldron spots, the Clumsy Witch starts in front of one of the cauldrons, looking to her left in clockwise direction, and the ingredient tiles are laid out, too. You as the active player look at a dice result for the duration of one spell read out and then move the witch in your mind as many steps forward as indicated by the die. You check the cauldron she reaches for the missing ingredient and pick up the tile for this ingredient. Then the other players check your result. If you are correct you receive a potion tile. After four rounds the player with most potions wins. The Fex versions introduce more dice: The green die determines the direction of movement for the witch, the blue die determines if you look for the ingredient in the cauldron before or behind the with and the orange die introduces Magician Fex into the game. If the orange die shows a star, you move the Witch, if it shows the Moon, you move the Magician, who does everything the opposite way  to how the witch would do it. There are also other versions: All play simultaneously, the first player to pick up the right ingredient gets the potion, or you place the figurines on the board when the active player had a look at the dice.

Contrary to the title, this is no game for hasty decisions, you must look closely and concentrate, all four dice in play demand lots of attention, careful consideration and correct conclusions.
