Watch “Grimoire Preview - A Mage Battling Spell Game,” a board game review for Wizards of the Grimoire from BoardGameCo on BoardGameVideo.

Description provided by BoardGameCo on YouTube:

BoardGameCo Patreon (Exclusive Content) - https://bit.ly/3sKcAYf Youtube Camp_Coop - http://bit.ly/3XHiCa6 Twitch: Camp_Coop - https://bit.ly/3l7nJ14 Devon Talks Tabletop - https://bit.ly/36HAr3l Professor Meg - http://bit.ly/3XKR1ol Daily Pictures & Stuff! - https://bit.ly/39GvjNH -------------------------------------------- This was a paid preview. Years of tutelage under the late Archmage Andor have culminated in this moment; his two protégés must now become rivals and battle to determine who will become the next Keeper of the Grimoire. As protection from your rival, you have only your magical gifts, your mastery of the Grimoire, and a select few spell pages ripped from its binding. Pick carefully; the spells you choose will allow you to counter your opponent, twist the fabric of time, and deal devastating damage, but only if you’re able to find synergies between spells and manage your mana reserves carefully. In this two player strategy card game, you must fulfill your destiny and become the Keeper of the Grimoire. Defeat your opponent by drafting new spells from the magical Grimoire, casting them, managing your cooldowns, and dealing massive damage. Each turn, draft one new spell to be added to your spell repertoire. But be warned! Your opponent has access to the same spells as you do, so choose the spells you want before your opponent does! Continue updating your spell repertoire throughout the game to optimize your deck and counter your opponent. Cast spells. Deal devastating damage or confuse and trip up your opponent. More expensive spells will have a larger impact on the game, but be careful, they’ll cost you more mana and will have a longer cool down. You can cast as many spells as you like on your turn so long as you have enough mana and the spells aren’t in cooldown. Find spell combinations that work together and time them correctly, to increase your damage or counter your opponent. Be the first wizard apprentice to eliminate your opponent's life points to become Keeper of the Grimoire. BGG Link - https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/340541/wizards-grimoire TimeStamps: 0:00:00 - Overview 0:08:03 - Summary 5.0 - My absolutely favorite games. You can pry them out of my cold dead hands. 4.5 - Love this game! At the same time missing something that would make it a 5. Could be hard to table, lacking variability, a little light, etc. 4.0 - Really great game, almost always keeping, although has meaningful complaints as to what takes away from the experience. 3.5 - Really enjoyed, don't love it, may lose out to better games but the idea of never playing again is a bit sad. 3.0 - A good game, would play and suggest with the right people, if I never played it again wouldn't lose any sleep. 2.5 - A game I'd play again , but will never suggest it myself 2.0 - A game I don't want to play again 1.5 - A game I can't find any reason to recommend 1.0 - A game that is just bad.
