{"product_id":"wandering-towers","title":"Wandering Towers","description":"\u003cp\u003eIt is graduation day at the Ravenrealm Magic School, and your wizards have all procrastinated. Their potion bottles are empty. Their assigned towers are scattered across a winding road. Ravenskeep waits at the end. Your hand is full of spell cards, your eye is on a particular tower three spaces ahead, and the player next to you is grinning because they remember exactly which of your wizards is hiding underneath it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWandering Towers is a family race game from legendary designers Wolfgang Kramer and Michael Kiesling, with rich illustrations by Michael Menzel. Players move wizards along a circular path toward Ravenskeep, but the towers themselves can also move. When a tower lands on top of another wizard, that wizard is captured underneath, and the player who captures another wizard fills up one of their potion bottles. You need both your wizards home and your bottles full to win.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat makes Wandering Towers special is the memory layer baked into a light, fast-playing race game. You have to remember which of your wizards is hiding under which stacked tower, sometimes through three or four turns of obscured movement, and the players around the table have to remember the same thing about their own pieces. It turns a simple race into a satisfying brain workout that everyone in the family can hang with.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlays 1 to 6, runs 30 minutes, and works for ages 8 and up. This is the rare game that is genuinely good at all its player counts, including six, and the included solo variant is solid. The 2023 Gouden Ludo Best Family Game win and the BGG community's three-time Family Game of the Year nominations are not accidental.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you have a regular family game night and need something between Ticket to Ride and Splendor, this is the game. Light, friendly, deceptively clever, and the kind of design that gets pulled off the shelf again and again.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Capstone Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48342216638713,"sku":"TGC-CAP-WTOWERS","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0806\/7527\/5001\/files\/01-box-front_e8f4d14a-9924-4bbc-8cf5-ce1c380e1326.png?v=1777667928","url":"https:\/\/thegameconnection.com\/products\/wandering-towers","provider":"The Game Connection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
