Each ingredient must go into the pot, but hidden magnetic areas in the board may trip you, causing your ingredients to go flying! Don't stumble, or the potion will be ruined. Who can make the potion the fastest? This engaging game's 3-D design and magical concept appeal to kids, and it's more challenging than it looks. The theme: A magician's young apprentices are learning to concoct potions and must carefully toss ingredients (wooden balls) into the cauldron; players must guide the apprentices to the pot using magic wands and tip the balls into the pot. The catch: the bottoms of the apprentice pieces are magnetized, and metal balls randomly hidden beneath the game board create stumbling points to trip up the apprentices. Components: 4 magic cauldrons, 1 fireplace, 4 wooden magicians, 4 wands, 16 wooden potion balls, 1 fireball, 1 game board with 12 built-in magnetic balls. Dimensions: 2.75 x 11.625 x 11.625 inches. For ages 5 and older. No reading necessary.
