About the game
What you do in a play session
Ever wanted to feel like a detective, but with a magical twist? Behind Shot: Magie et Potions is a concentrated, super accessible version of the award-winning Behind (winner of the 2025 As d'Or Initié). If you want to dive into mystery without a massive rulebook, this is your game! The premise is simple: a comic strip page about a laid-back apprentice wizard trying a new potion recipe has been torn out and scattered. Your mission, solo or with a team, is to piece it all back together. With 60 tiles, you'll need to scrutinize every detail—a line, a color, or a snippet of text might be the key to connecting two pieces. If your brain starts to knot up, don't panic: the artwork itself can offer hints, or you can use clue cards to get back on track. The ultimate test is ensuring that when you flip the tiles, the image on the back is flawless. It's a pure, visual, and incredibly satisfying logic puzzle. This is the perfect gateway into the Behind series, making it an ideal choice for a quick, clever session while you wait for the next big installment!
