  1. Wonderland's War is about area control, bag building, and card drafting. The game starts with the tea party phase (card drafting) where units are placed and bags are filled with unit chips. After that, the war phase starts where for each region a battle occurs. [b]Pros:[/b] + Artwork: very colorful, imaginative + Components: Deluxe edition: plastic minis for the leaders, custom shaped wooden meeples, cardboard chips. Retail comes with standees, standard meeples, cardboard chips. KS upgrade pack for plastic chips available. + Unique leader characters with special abilities: Alice, The Mad Hatter, The Red Queen and The Jaberwock. Your leader can be upgraded over the course of the game. + Card drafting: in turn order, each player drafts four cards. All cards are laid out around a table. You can only draw cards in front of your player token. So if you skip over cards, you have to move all around the table to be able to pick a specific card. However, this card may be picked by other players in the meantime. However, players also must collect shards while moving around the table. Shards provide negative victory points. The drafted cards will manipulate your bag. + Bag building is used for combat to increase your strength in an contested area (draw token + placed units + your leader strength). There is a push your luck element since you also have negative tokens in you bag. + Random region bonuses each game (1st vs 2nd player). It may be worthwhile to loose a battle for the region bonus. + Players may gain additional mission cards to score additional victory points. [b]Neutrals:[/b] # Langage dependent: text on cards and player board. # Luck of the draw (bag building). # A little luck of the roll (draw 1-3 shards). [b]Similar games:[/b] * Quacks of Quedlinburg (bag building without area control confrontation)

  2. [email protected]/11 Premise had me interested a while back, but based on art and mechanics my hopes are very realistic

  3. Would like to have..., but like Tidal Blade.., no German - NO GAME... Maybe Druid Games don't need the extra money and players in Germany... If I'm not wrong we're still the second largest market for boardgames... A pity...

The Looking Glass has shattered, madness is being drained from the inhabitants, and war has come to Wonderland. Alice, Mad Hatter, Red Queen, and Jabberwock must gather all that they can while playing nice at the Hatter’s Tea Party before going to battle in Wonderland’s War!

In this Drafting, Bag Building, Area Control game 2-5 players take the role as a Faction Leader who has been invited to the Hatter’s Tea Party. Drink tea and eat cake as you move around the table drafting cards to gather your forces, build your towers, Upgrade your Leader, and recruit Wonderlandians to your cause. But one must be careful, as shards of the Looking Glass are spread throughout Wonderland. Once all the plates are empty, the Tea Party is over and war begins.
Use the forces you gathered and Wonderlandians to battle your enemies in familiar Locations, but make sure not to draw your Shard Chips or your towers will fall and you will be out of the fight. Can you muster enough strength to win the battle or will you just try to gain Region Bonuses for set scoring throughout the game instead?
After all the battles have been fought, a truce is called and everyone meets back at the Tea Party to plot their moves for the next fight. After 3 rounds, the Faction with the most points will be crowned as the new Leader of Wonderland!
