Wizard Kittens

Players are apprentice wizard kittens who must work together to defeat six roaming curses before the librarian catches them. Each turn players choose a spell (draw, attack, discard, or swap) and use it to manipulate their hand and play area; the same spell cannot be used on consecutive turns by the same player. Curses and a ritual deck drive the endgame: the game ends either when all curses are defeated or when the librarian appears from the ritual deck. If the kittens defeat the curses, players score points including a hidden extra-credit objective; if they are caught, a penalty rule removes high-scoring players and the remaining player with the fewest cards in play wins.
