About the game
The Spell Pack for Wandering Towers contains all 6 spells from the Mini-Spell expansion packs in one box! The wizards have more spells at their disposal to reach Ravenskeep first! Retrieve a Card allows you to put the top card of the discard pile back in your hand. Movement Swap allows you to swap the movement values on the card you play, including moving something that is not shown on your card, like moving a wizard if only a tower is shown. Have you ever wanted to Close Ravenskeep and prevent any wizards from going there? Well, now you can for one turn. Drawing 2 cards allows you to interrupt your turn and gain additional card options. Fill a Potion Bottle gives you the ability to flip a bottle without covering any wizards. Finally, Extra Die Roll gives you the chance to get a new movement value, replacing the one printed on a card. Mix and match these wondrous spells with those from the base game. These spells offer exciting strategies, increasing player choice and tactical depth when combined with the original magic of the award-winning game Wandering Towers! —description from the publisher

The listed playing time for Wandering Towers: Spell Pack is 20–45 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 Wandering Towers: Spell Pack for ages 8 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.
