Description

Wizard Junior is a fantastic introduction to the world of trick-taking games, perfect for kids and families to enjoy together. With simple rules that can be explained in no time, this game is great for 3 to 6 players to gather around the table and start playing right away. The gameplay is similar to its older counterpart, Wizard, but with a few tweaks to make it more accessible to younger players. Instead of traditional suits, Wizard Junior uses colors, and each color has a smaller deck of cards, making it easier for kids to wrap their head around trumps and tricks. In just 20 minutes, you'll be bidding on the number of tricks you think you can take, using the auction mechanics to try and outsmart your opponents. The game is designed by Ken Fisher and has been a favorite among families since its release in 2006. As a children's game, Wizard Junior is an excellent way to teach kids about strategy and probability, all while having a blast competing with their friends and family. With its short playtime and easy-to-learn rules, you can play multiple rounds in one sitting, making it a great addition to any family game night.
