PLAYED FOR YOU

Verhexte Fabelwesen

Dragon or Giant show you the way

The Sorcerer's apprentices must reach the castle of Sorcerer Fidibus by crossing the bleak magic forest. As they do not know the way, they must find the bewitched creatures hiding in the forest, who can help them to find the way.

32 forest tiles are shuffled with their forest side up and laid out either in a grid or in a loose arrangement. Each player draws a face-down apprentice tile and thus knows which one of the apprentices is his for the game. You keep this information secret!

In your turn you turn up two tiles - if you can combine them to a fabled bewitched creature you take the pair of tiles and check the colors of the sorcerer's apprentices that are depicted on the tiles. Then you advance the two apprentices in those colors by the number of steps equal to the number of apprentice markers in the respective colors. When an apprentice arrives at the castle, the owner of this apprentice wins the game. All apprentice markers are always participating in a game, even if there are less than four players participating. When one of the apprentices who do not belong to someone, arrives at the castle first, you continue to play until an apprentice that is owned by a player reaches the castle.

This is a simple memo game that has a bit of tactic to offer if you manage to remember those tiles on which you noticed your own apprentice. There are several tiles of each part of a bewitched creature, so you have several chances of creating a bewitched creature and can even decide which opposing apprentice you prefer to move. But even played like a simple memo game this is a very cute version.
