Description
Schüttel's (which means roughly "Shake It") is a game of luck, skill, and giddy gnomes that are poured out of a magic cup in the sky.
Wonder Valley has never been this busy before. As wizards, the players overwhelm the lazy bakers and dozy carpenters with giddy gnomes. And now business is starting to boom! But only if you repeatedly shake an appropriate number of gnomes out of the cup will you get a share of the wealth. If your shakeup magic goes wrong, however, you might end up at the pillory, which costs you dearly – to the other players' mischievous delight.

- This is Flamecraft Duels. I honestly wish they probably wouldn't have called it Flamecraft, maybe like Flame Duels or something like that would make more sense to me um because I don't think this one is anything like a two-player version of Flamecraft. This is a straight abstract game.
- It's got really great PVC cards with some crazy like metal clasp on it. Like the whole thing is overproduced, but it may it just brings to the uh it brings so much to the occasion when you're playing this game.
