In this game, you take on the role of a witch aiming to prove your mastery to the stars. It all begins with choosing your Witch's Hut, which comes with a Cauldron and a unique Talent to give you that initial edge. Then, it's time to venture into the garden under the Mystic Moon's glow to gather ingredients, which can be basic, rare, or even wild (and super versatile!). Store everything in your Satchel for later use. The objective is clear: brew potions! Each potion card requires a specific combination of ingredients in your Cauldron. By completing these recipes, you not only unleash powerful effects but also earn Star Power. And Star Power is key: it serves as your currency to learn new recipes from the mysterious Elder Witch and, ultimately, determines who wins. But beware of rivals! They might send mischievous frogs to steal your ingredients or poisonous mushrooms to ruin your brew. The game lasts 5 rounds, and whoever accumulates the most Star Power at the end, when the Mystic Moon completes its cycle, will be crowned the brightest witch. It's a magical race against time and your opponents! ## FAQ ### How many rounds does Mystic Moon last?
