Description from the publisher: One player has the role of the wishing machine, and as such selects one out of nine wishes. All others play the agents who try to find out what that secret wish is. If the agents are ready, the wishing machine spits out four wishing cards and states whether or not they show the preferred item. Another set of four wishing cards and another statement follows. Who will be the first agent to guess the secret wish of the machine? With each row of cards and statements made in Wunschmaschine, you gain new information about the secret wish of the machine. Sooner or later it will become clear what the wishing machine really wants. Depending on the distribution of the cards, you can solve the problem after just a few rows, or it may take you longer. Haste and pressure from your opponents ensure that mistakes will happen along the way – much to the other players' delight as they profit from your mishaps. To increase the level of difficulty, look for the experienced gamers variant enclosed at the end of the basic rules.
