In ABC – Magic Duel, two players take on the roles of a wizard and a witch. At the start of each round, a Letter Card (e.g., "A") is revealed and a Magic Word Card. The Magic Word Card is a busy picture (Wimmelbild) filled with various objects. Players must simultaneously and as quickly as possible search the image and find an object that starts with the revealed letter. The first player to correctly shout the word wins the round and moves their pawn along the path towards the magic cauldron to win the duo. The game also includes a cooperative variation for one or more players.
The Haba Children's Mini Board Game: ABC – Magic Duel (ABC-Zauberduell) is a magical letter game and observation speed game, perfect for children learning the alphabet. In this lively duo, Witch Allegra (or Ux) and Wizard Smocus (or Pim) compete to see who can find the most powerful "magical" word. Haba's game combines fun with learning, enhancing concentration and the ability for quick word recognition in a visually rich environment.
