A card game with the perfect balance of strategy, luck, pacing and a simplicity found in any classic board game. As a player, you get some magical figures who want to attend a magic party. Your goal is to get all the figures in as quickly as possible but not all the cards are extras. There are also some magic spells in the game that can curse your opponents or bless yourself. As you can hear, this is going to be a magically fun experience! —description from the publisher
Witty Witches supports 2–6 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. 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 Witty Witches is 10 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 Witty Witches for ages 7 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.
