Summon & Sacrifice
Requirements
Description
You’re a wizard, using sorcery to summon creatures more powerful than those of your opponents. You'll use magic gems to buy creature cards that will earn you points at the end of the game. Some will gain bonus points from other creatures of the same element type, so it's wise to focus on collecting one type of creature (earth, water, or air).
But to create life, you must take life - you’ll need to sacrifice some creatures in order to earn magic gems. This is done by simply turning your creature cards upside-down at the beginning of your turn. But be careful -dead creatures will subtract points from your final score, and they can only be revived witha specific wand or spell.
Once a player has 7 creatures (living & dead), all other players take one more turn. In the end, points are tallied and the wizard with the highest score wins!
