Description

The Quacks of Quedlinburg is a strategic push-your-luck game where each player draws from their potpourri of ingredients until they think that their own special blend is just right. But be careful: a few too many special ingredients and the whole potion could blow up in your face! Do you stop early to improve your chances of making a better potion later that will win the day, or do you risk a setback in order to get more money and fame now? The game is quite flexible or variable. You can mix things up and make each game a little different than the last. Takes about 45 minutes to play. Good for 2-4 players in the 10+ age group. ~Amber

A ridiculous game of brewing potions, pushing your luck, and exploding.

Standard Edition includes everything from the classic game, with updated art and a lower price.

  • The same great game with amazing new art!
  • The modern classic push your luck game of potions, explosions, and not being able to stop.
