About the game
A simple push-your-luck game card game for kids. To win, you must collect all 6 ingredients necessary to make chocolate; the witches are hoarding the recipe and trying to stop you. The deck (F.X Schmid) has 65 cards : 22 witches (red) and 43 (green) ingredients. There are 6 kinds of ingredients. On your turn, flip cards from the deck until you either: - draw a witch: discard all cards revealed this turn; end of turn OR - decide to stop flipping: add the revealed cards to your collection The first player to collect all 6 ingredients wins. If no one has 6 after the deck is exhausted, the person with the most different ingredients wins. Duplicates are irrelevant, except in a variant (suggested for if playing with many players) where you allow trading. The Ravensburger editions contain 60 cards : 20 witches (red) and 40 ingredients (green).

Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Schoko-Hexe is 20 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Schoko-Hexe for ages 5 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Schoko-Hexe has a complexity rating of 1.1 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
