About this board game

Shazamm! is a two-player wizard duel for ages 10 and up, played in roughly 30 minutes. Each player takes the role of a mighty wizard facing a rival who claims the same title across a bridge over a lava river.

The game centers on a dramatic confrontation between the two wizards. Players have their own 15-card spell deck and a double-wheel counter used to bet Mana, bringing magical wagers into the contest. The board depicts the bridge where the duel takes place, along with a dragon and the Mana scale.

Shazamm! creates a focused head-to-head experience with an evocative fantasy setting. The bridge, lava river, dragon, wizards, and Fire Wall give the game a strong visual identity, while the spell decks and Mana counters provide the essential tools for the opposing wizards.
