A handful of Arch-Mages are vying for the loyalty of wizards across the land so that they can wield ultimate power. \u003cbr\u003e Lizard Wizard is a game from the team that brought you Raccoon Tycoon. Aspects of gameplay will be familiar to fans of RT, and will add a bit of extra depth and strategy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn Lizard Wizard, players compete to recruit wizards from seven unique schools of magic, build mystical towers, research powerful spells, summon helpful familiars, and search dark dungeons for gold and items of power. Only one Arch-Mage will rise above the rest and control the land. Will it be you?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLizard Wizard is an action-selection game. On your turn, you may perform one of the following six Actions:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eACTIONS\u003cbr\u003eOn a player’s turn, they may perform one of the following six Actions:\u003cbr\u003e1) GATHER REAGENTS\u003cbr\u003eJust as there are seven schools of magic, there are seven magical reagents, or ingredients, that fuel the magic of Astoria. Knowing where these natural wonders can be found is the essential starting point for every young wizard. Sometimes they use familiars to perform this errand, but it is still very common to find even the most powerful arch-mages lurking in the Enchanted Wood, searching for the most pure reagents.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlay a Gather Reagents Card\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTake Reagents shown on the ‘Gather Reagents’ half (plus any on your Wizard Cards)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncrease the value of the Reagents shown on the ‘Increase Value’ half\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCast one spell (if you have the necessary reagents)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e2) CONVERT REAGENTS TO MANA\u003cbr\u003eLong ago, the wizards of Astoria learned how to convert reagents into mana, the magical energy that powers all things.

They do this through demonstrations of their magical ability. Occasionally, their attempts to recruit a wizard are challenged by one or more rivals, and a Wizard’s Duel occurs. These contests of magical power can drain even the most powerful mage.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSelect one of the two Wizard Cards on offer and bid Mana in turn (or pass)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWinner of the Auction pays the bid and takes the Wizard Card\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIf the player who started the Auction didn’t win, they may take another Action\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e4) RESEARCH SPELL \u003cbr\u003eArch-Mages have the ability to learn spells from any of the seven schools of magic.

They are essential servants who perform many vital services for wizards: They can be used for simple errands, such as gathering reagents or gold.
