Clumsy Witch

The Clumsy Witch has brewed ten potions. Each potion contains twelve ingredients – but unfortunately she forgot one ingredient in each potion and put one in twice. The potions (large tiles) are placed on the track on the game board, and the witch is placed somewhere between two potions. Then a die is rolled. It decides how many steps the witch is to walk forward – but she does not actually move. Instead, each player works out in their head where she would land and then looks at the next potion. The first player to spot which ingredient is missing scores a point.
Once the players are familiar with the system, different levels of difficulty can be added by rolling more than one die:

– One die to decide the direction of movement
– One die to decide whether the witch looks into the cauldron in front or behind
– One die to decide whether the witch or the fox – who always does the opposite of what the dice say – is used (including working out which ingredient is used twice instead of which is missing)

The more dice in play, the harder it gets. Another way to raise the difficulty is to use the dice cup and leave the dice visible for only a brief moment.

The first player to collect a certain number of points is the winner.
