Abracada...What?
Cast spells from a lineup only your opponents can see, deducing what you actually hold before you run out.

A family deduction game with a wonderful twist: the spells lined up in front of you are visible to everyone but you. On your turn you try to cast a spell from your hidden lineup against a rival, using logic, memory and the other players' reactions to figure out what you actually hold. Miss too many times and you're out of magic.
Who it's for
Families and casual groups who enjoy playful deduction and the comedy of piecing together what only you can't see.
Not for you if…
You dislike memory-dependent play, or a game where a bad guess ends your turn feels too random for your taste.
Vibe's take
Charming and giggly, the funny frustration of everyone knowing your options but you, working them out by logic.
