Wizard Tournament

Турнир Волшебников ("Wizard Tournament") is a fast-paced spell-shouting game of reaction in which players take on the roles of young wizards swinging their wands, casting spells, summoning magic crystals, and protecting themselves from the Dark Lord. Each player starts the game with a magic wand, 5 crystals of one color of their choosing, and 1 crystal of each color that was not chosen for the game. The game is played over a series of rounds. Each round, 2 dice are rolled. Die sides correspond to the colors of the magic crystals. Additionally, one die contains a white side and another die contains a black side. Different combinations make different players cast certain spells (Attackus, Defendus, Captus, or Iamsafus), and whoever is the first to do it right either protects their crystals or gets a chance to take one from the opponent — or even steal some from the Dark Lord himself! Whenever one of the players has the majority in three crystal colors and doesn’t have the Dark Lord’s mark on them, the game is over and that player is declared the winner! Count fast, be sure enough to cast your spells with a steady hand, and don’t let other wizards get ahead of you! —description from the publisher
