New Edition of Wiz-War Board Game Up On Kickstarter

ByDaniel Kling Lorentsen

Steve Jackson Games is bringing another of their classic board games back to your tabletops with a new edition. It’s Wiz-War. Grab your wizard of choice, open up their spell book, and look to grab the treasure before your opponents. The updated version is up on Kickstarter now.

From the campaign:

Fans have loved Wiz-War for decades, and we’re proud to bring it back into print. Two to six wizards battle in an ever-changing labyrinth, trying to steal treasure or destroy each other . . . well, why not both?

Fireball! Lightning! Thornbush! Oh, no . . . Swap Sectors!

No two games are the same, so you’ll enjoy Wiz-War over and over.

The campaign’s well far and away over its funding goal (being fair, they weren’t asking for a lot) with 8 days left to go.
