Great theming here! A fairly small space but they’ve used the space well offering different levels. Some small spaces require you crawl into but it didn’t deter from the game play. I love a game that has been designed with attention to detail and nothing in here detracted from its theme. A great game for families.

A super magic room that can be played directly before Mystical Critters, making a lovely double room experience with two strongly themed chapters. It has all of the decor you'd expect from a potions-themed room and some lovely puzzles, with one little puzzle chain in particular that was utterly delightful.
Elixir Vitae pips Mystical Critters as the better game but both have some lovely elements to them and follow a parallel game structure that enables two teams to play versus each other.
We had a lovely host who was a pleasure to chat to - it is always so nice to meet fellow enthusiasts and to compare notes!
