Someone Is About To Get Witch Slapped On Kickstarter From Prolific Games

With it almost being Halloween, one quick look at Witch Slapped by Prolific Games, and I knew we just had to have a look. This looks to be a fast and fun, beer and pretzel card game - in fact, I think the pub would be the perfect location!

Three to six players will face off as witches in a dark and creepy forest, fighting over the cauldron resources available. The game has a basic set collection mechanic, where players are scrambling to be the first to acquire at least 4 of a matching spell - and that's where the Witch Slapping starts.

You may only initiate the slap round if you have four or five of a spell. When that happens, you slap the four cauldron or the four/five cauldron. Once the slap round has been initiated the other witches may slap one of the remaining cauldron cards.

You may only slap a number that is equal to or less than the number of spell cards in your set. So if you have three of a spell type you can slap the one, two, or three but if you have only two you cannot slap the three. If you slap a number that you don’t have enough spell cards for you take damage equal to the number you slapped and you will not be able to cast a spell this turn. Once a number is slapped it must be taken.

Then each witch secretly chooses another witch to cast a spell at and everyone resolves their spells and the process is repeated until the last witch is standing.
