Lizard Wizard

Players take the roles of rival Arch-Mages competing to control a magical land by recruiting wizards, researching spells, building towers, summoning familiars, and exploring dungeons. On a turn, a player chooses one of six actions: gather reagents (and optionally cast spells), convert reagents into mana, bid for and recruit wizard cards, research spells from an available offer, construct towers by paying reagents or gold, or summon a familiar to perform one of several effects including dungeon runs or free spell selection. The game ends when one of several decks depletes; scoring rewards combinations of wizards, towers, and spells, plus gold and spell-related bonuses.
