The Village Crone | Board Game

You and your fellow players are medieval witches who have stumbled upon wickers-by, a village without a crone in this worker placement, resource management game with spell casting. Wickers-by is built from 6 modular boards, with different locations holding the ingredients flour, fire, silver, and soil. Send your familiars out to harvest these ingredients and use them to cast spells in order to complete witch's scheme cards. Each of the cards is worth 1, 2, or 3 points, which also indicates how difficult the scheme is to complete. Make villagers fall in love, turn them into frogs, or teleport them to different locations as you work to complete your witch's schemes. Every scheme you complete brings you closer to the 13 points needed to win and be declared the village crone.
