LIZARD WIZARD (Forbidden Games, 1 to 5 players, ages 10 and up, 90 minutes; $49.99)

Welcome to Astoria, a land of magic! But all is not serene! Arch-Mages across the land seek the loyalty of wizards in the quest for ultimate power! By casting spells, creating mystical towers, conjuring familiars to aid them in their quest, players will assume the mantle of these Arch-Mages and seek to rise above the rest in this new Glenn Drover design: Lizard Wizard.
