Product Information

Fairy dandruff (yellow) – a very powerful ingredient. Also used by naughty children who refuse to grow up, to kidnap other kids and lead them astray. At the end of the game you score points for you potions and there are points for set collection too - collecting potions of the same type and one of each of five out of the six types. There are eight different types of potions included in this base game, so there is a little variety outside of the randomness of the marble dispenser. For starters, players get to choose which potions they want to brew. And there are many things to consider when making this choice. The most obvious will be the number of points each potion is worth as well as which colors and quantity of ingredients are required to complete it. As we’ve mentioned, not only does it have a great toy factor, it’s also great for thinking through options each turn. Unicorn tears (blue) – the purest fluid known in the world of magic. Just a few drops can catalyze very powerful magical effects.

How To Play the Potion Explosion Game, a Quick Guide and Review

At it’s heart, the game is a set-collection type of game. And people of all ages love set collecting games. If another set connects after you have taken the initial marbles, you may take the additional color of exploding marbles. Each player receives a Desk board and places it in front of himself, leaving some space both above and below it. Hi, an issue is preventing the game to load while connecting to online servers, currently down. We are working to solve it. When you finish collecting the magical ingredients, set the colored marbles in corresponding colored slots on your potion card. You must place ingredients in your hand on matching empty holes on your potion recipe.So when we see a game with a big toy factor to it, we naturally tend to think it’s going to be fun.

Then, players add up the points they have obtained from potion tiles (marked with a number on the potion tile). Add skill tokens points and subtract two points for each help token. If two ingredient marbles of the same color marbles collide, they “explode”. You may take all of the same-colored marbles that touch after an explosion is triggered. You will always have 2 Potion tiles in the Brewing area of your Desk at the beginning of each turn, and you wont be able to complete more than 2 Potions in a single turn. Hah!

The marble must be completely visible. When you take ingredients, try to trigger an explosion to gain the most ingredients possible (more on this below). When all the holes of a potion are filled, that potion is completed and it moves to your potion area, becoming worth its VP at the end of the game.If 2 ingredient marbles of the same color then collide, they “explode”. When these ingredients explode, the player then collects all of the ingredients of that color connected to them. If removing those then causes another explosion, the player collects those ingredients in the same way. Two explosions in a row! The marbles are then matched up with brewing potions to both generate points as well as use special abilities. Put the marbles of the correct color on your Potion tiles: when all the holes have been filled with a marble of the corresponding color, the Potion is completed. Each Potion is worth a certain number of points, which depends on the number of Ingredients needed to complete it and the strength of the magical power it grants. So compared to most games, not much. Personally, this is a bonus for me. It’s really easy to set up as all the marbles are kept in the dispenser, and you just need to sort the potions out. There are 8 different potions but you only play with 6, therefore you need to take out the ones you are not using. Some potions have stars on them – these are the ones you start with.

Our goal is to design, develop and produce cool and innovative games capable of bringing fun to everyone: we try to make our games stand out from the crowd, both for visual style and gameplay mechanics. The game ends at the end of the round in which the last Skill token is claimed or there are no more potion tiles available. There are 2 expansions for Potion Explosion. The Fifth Ingredient includes a new ingredient and, as I mentioned before, The Sixth Student has a new dispenser, bigger halls, and more players. Dragon smoke (red) – the toxic fumes exhaled by these dreadful reptiles are often used for their high magical reactivity. Beware - never, ever inhale them! Chaining; The biggest impact in this game comes from chains of connections. Getting one marble is not that useful, but getting the two that then touch to be removed as well is good. Going for the one after that is exceptional and often more than you can use, however this can be a masterful stroke late game!
