Description
Abraca...what? is a family game of deduction and spellcasting. On your turn, you try to cast one of the spells you have in front of you — but it's harder than it looks because only the other players can see which spells are available to you! So with cunning wit, clever logic, and a little luck, you have to determine which spells to use against your competitors. Watch your magic words, though, because if you try to cast the wrong spell too often, you'll lose the game!

- Carcassonne: Over Hill and Dale, this is one of those expansions that I just missed.
- This is a big, grandiose game with a lot going on, and it's too slow and too boring for me to enjoy it.
- This is my least favorite Carcassonne game. I hate this game.
- This is one of the biggest, longest games I've ever played.
- It's the bad quality's bad.
- This one is fine. Um this one is not as bad as the other one I played was that you go around and you find stuff. It doesn't look very good though, does it?
- Leaders on the other hand are a great two-player game where you have a bunch of leaders and you're trying to capture your opponent's leader.
- Of all the games I talked about today, I think my favorite is actually Leaders.
- Leaders is a very, very excellent two-player game.
- This is a re-implementation of Survive: Escape from Atlantis.
- A little auction game. There was just some really neat like there wasn't many games like this. Now, there are many, many, many games like it.
