fsumarc76Yes Pattern recognition game. 12 wizard cards are set out face up. all are different in some detail. size, hat color, robe color, shoes, wand etc. a card is turned up from the face down deck. players then race to spot one of the table cards that DON'T match in any way. first to call correctly gets to collect the table card and the turned up one takes it's place. A fun little before bedtime 10 minute game with the kids.
maksum6  Really not a "bad" game. I personally love pattern recognition games, but the illustrations on the cards just don not make the differences distinct enough. The skinny wizards look too much like the normal ones for example. I would get "Big Top" over this one if you are in the market for a game of this type.
