Magic Penguins

2018·Joseph Roche

2 - 4 players
10 - 20 min

From BoardGameGeek

Be the last man standing by using your magic penguins to squash the other player's butterflies. Players will use their army of wizard penguins to defeat the other players. Each player has butterflies to represent their hit points. Once they are all squashed they are out of the game. There are 4 different types of penguins. Blue Wizards squash butterflies, Green Wizards heal butterflies, Orange Wizards Shield and protect butterflies and the Red Wizards counter spells. On each player's they will draw 2 cards and then may play as many as one penguin type as they want, or pass to build up their hand. For a many penguins as the same type is played, that many Red penguins are needed to counter the spell, all or none. Players may combine their counters to stop a spell. Momentary alignment, don't be fooled they are still going to squash your butterflies as soon as they can. Once a player has all their butterflies squashed they are out and can't get back in, last man with a least one butterfly left, wins the game. -description from the publisher
