Beard Wizards is a ridiculously fun card game that's all about collecting sets, managing your hand, and throwing some magic at your friends. With its simple rules and quick explanation, you can dive right into the whimsical world of wizards and beards, brought to life with cartoon artwork that's sure to put a smile on your face. The goal is straightforward: gather seven golden beard hairs and you'll be casting the ultimate ritual to win the game. You'll start with one hair, but from there, it's up to you to collect the rest, using a combination of spells, artifacts, and fancy beards to get ahead. As you play, you'll draw two cards on each turn and take up to two actions, which can include playing a spell to disrupt your opponents, adding a powerful artifact to your collection, or donning a fancy beard that gives you an ongoing benefit. You can also choose to discard cards to perform a ritual, which gets more powerful the more beard hairs you have. With two to five players and a playtime of just 10 to 25 minutes, Beard Wizards is the perfect game for a quick gathering or casual game night. Designed by The Dusty Tophat and published in 2019, this base game is a great introduction to the world of card games, and its take that mechanics ensure that everyone will be in for a thrilling ride.
