Description

Wizard is a classic trick-taking game that's easy to learn and fun to play with 3 to 6 friends. Designed by Ken Fisher and first published in 1984, it's a great example of a game that's stood the test of time. The game uses a special 60-card deck that includes four Wizards and four Jesters, which add a twist to the traditional trick-taking rules. In each round, players bet on how many tricks they think they'll win, and then try to make it happen. The game is all about strategy and bluffing, as you try to outmaneuver your opponents and win the most tricks. With a playtime of just 45 minutes, Wizard is a great choice for a quick game night with friends. The rules are simple, but the gameplay is engaging and challenging, making it a great choice for players of all skill levels.
