Magic Circle Games Launch Cauldron: Bubble and Boil
August 2, 2017 by thisisazrael
Magic Circle Games have gone to Kickstarter with their first game Cauldron: Bubble and Boil.
Players compete to be crowned the next coven leader by taking part in a potion brewing contest.
Simply brewing a potion isn't enough though as each card will give you various options such as growing ingredients, Hexing (casting spells) or completing your recipes.
If you're feeling a little mischievous you can use magic in your garden to produce more ingredients or even steal from other players.
You must be careful though as Hexing will cause the corruption of your own ingredients which could ruin your best potions.
I love the premise of adding your ingredients to your physical cauldron, hidden from the prying eyes of your fellow witches and warlocks.
Finding the balance between slowing down your opposition while keeping your own brew safe will be key and acts as a lovely risk-reward mechanic.
The game is for 2-4 players and is due to close on Kickstarter on Sat 26th August.
Will you be gathering your friends around for a "brew"?

a witch’s starter set?
I like this. lovely art work and theme.
Seems like a nice family friendly theme and way to introduce some strategy and memorisation into games night 🙂 Az
