The Quacks of Quedlinburg elevated designer Wolfgang Warsch into stardom! His bag-building, potion-making, push-your-luck title has captured the hearts of boardgamers everywhere. Due to its immense popularity, an expansion soon landed - The Herb Witches. Now, thanks to publishers Schmidt Spiele, Quacks of Quedlinburg has a Big Box! Big Box, you ask? That's right: this combines both The Quacks of Quedlinburg and The Herb Witches into one big, erm... box. In the base game of Quacks, 2-5 players compete at the Quedlinburg fayre to brew the best concoction. You start with a bag full of basic ingredients, and you draw them one at a time. Each ingredient you toss into your cauldron, the further around the spiral it goes. And the further your spiral progresses, the more impressive your potion. The more money it's worth. But beware... If you add in too many cherry bombs, your pot's going to go boom! Say goodbye to your eyebrows - and the respect of the crowd! You can stop drawing tokens whenever you like. But that's the clincher: how lucky do you feel? Could you risk one or two more ingredients? If you stop before the explosion threshold, you earn money to spend on better ingredients to add into your bag. Plus points. Precious victory points! If you blow up, you only earn one of these two rewards. And that's bitter medicine to swallow! The Herb Witches, meanwhile, adds in extra Ingredient Books. These provide even more modular possibilities. You can mix and match these during set-up to help create a ton of variety with regards to bag-building. The Witches themselves also grant the players powers. Spend them wisely, and you could reap the rewards. There's also a promotional mini-module included in this Big Box: Wolfgang's Exchange Office. The Quacks of Quedlinburg: Big Box provides all the fun and variety you could ever need. We've said it once, we'll say it again: be careful around those cherry bombs...
