About this board game
Wiz-War is a magical combat board game for 2–4 players, with each game taking about 60 minutes. Wizards battle through an underground labyrinth, using spells, cunning, and chaotic attacks to achieve magical mastery.
Victory can come from stealing other wizards’ treasures and hauling them back to your base, or by earning points through blasting rival wizards. When every other wizard has fallen, the last wizard standing always wins.
Every turn can bring a new surprise as players race through the maze and unleash an enriched array of spells. Fireballs, werewolves, and psychic storms are just some of the dangers that can disrupt plans and turn a promising expedition into magical mayhem.
- Players: 2–4
- Play time: approximately 60 minutes
- Core challenge: steal treasures, return them to your base, or blast opposing wizards

Staying true to the spirit of the classic game created by Tom Jolly, this edition combines competitive wizard duels with a playful sense of humor. Its spells and hazards encourage bold choices, sudden reversals, and inventive ways to interfere with opponents.
Subtle enhancements by Kevin Wilson and Tom Jolly promote faster play and clarify card effects, helping the action stay focused as the wizards clash. Whether pursuing treasure or simply trying to be the final survivor, Wiz-War delivers a lively struggle where no spell is off-limits.
