Fantasy Wizard

I learned this game while friends from Germany were visiting, 15 years ago. The cards purchased here are very good quality cards and I recommend them to anyone. I have one of these decks that I have been using for over 10 years. Comes with a scorecard and instructions in both English and German.Easy to learn, but requires very strategic skills to be competitive. Progressive game for 3-6 players, all playing individually. (no partnerships) You will love it.

Once you get the hang of how score is kept, this is a very fun bluffing game with some hilariously strange artwork on the cards. Each game can take upwards of 30 mins to play, but with a fun group we often play several times.

My son-in-law taught me this game while we were visiting Europe & when we got home I had to get us a deck too

So much fun it is addicting. Just wish the name was different, because it has really nothing to do with Wizards other than the pictures on the cards, but whatever, I love this game and tell everyone about it. Makes a great gift too, especially to families or groups of friends.

My 12 year old son, who also loves Catan and Chess, learned to play this at a friend's house and persisted for a couple of months of reminding me about it until we got around to ordering him his own set. It's a little complicated to follow initially, I thought (I'm more of an UNO/Clue/don't have to think about it too much gal), but if you have someone to walk you through it at first, it can be kind of fun. After a couple of times, I had the hang or it enough to beat my son at it - there's enough going on, luck, strategy, ability to predict correctly, etc. that you don't have to rely on pure strategy alone. My husband seems to enjoy it, too. The game seems to have German origins, so instead of W for Wizard and J for Jester, it's Z for Zauberer and N for Narr, which is a bit unfortunate, because it makes the N and Z cards a little closer in appearance that my brain likes. Think it's a good option to round out a game-loving family's collection. Wonderfully portable, too. My son is planning to take it to summer camp with him next week.

My brother and his German wife introduced us to this game and it was very entertaining! It takes a little bit to get the strategy down but it's not a difficult game. I'd recommend this version because of the *start sarcasm* beautiful *end sarcasm* artwork - part of the game's charm.

Wanted my own Wizard game after learning the game.... Ordered, expected it to take at least a couple of days - but no received it right away. This game is challenging and fun - glad I have my own set of cards now.

Kids loved it. I recommend it for other families. Especially with all the rain lately and not being able to go outside, the kids were busy all day playing this game
