Who it's for

Card-game fans who like tactical set collection where reading the changing table state matters. Sweet spot around three players.

Not for you if…

You want a long strategic arc or a rich fantasy theme. The dragons are mostly flavor on a tight, abstract engine, and turns can hinge on what others leave you.

Vibe's take

Brisk and brainy, with a shared display that changes on every draw. The spell mechanism gives each turn a satisfying push-and-pull.

About this game

A clever card game where magicians herd dragons instead of sheep. Two stacks form a shared Magic Book that tells you which dragons can be collected and how many, and every card you take shifts that information for the next player. Cast spells by returning dragons to the book to bend the rules in your favor.
