Article number: The chapters span the entire story of The Wizard of Oz, from Dorothy’s encounter with the twister, to her returning home. While I don’t want to spoil the goals and challenges present in each chapter, I will break down the first chapter to help explain the structure of the game and what players can expect. The Wizard of Oz is a beloved classic whose story has been adapted into nearly every medium, but its latest iteration comes in a unique adventure book format from Ravensburger and makes for a great night of gaming, even if there’s little replay value.

Each chapter has players completing the same steps per turn, but the challenges vary wildly. For instance, chapter 2 sees Dorothy and Glinda attempting to round up munchkins from random tiles on the board, which are then placed on a grid puzzle and must be maneuvered to land in specific areas while Dorothy is in a specific spot. To complicate matters, plot cards slowly advance a red smoke which will force players to restart the chapter if they aren’t careful. Get help from your favorite movie characters by dropping their Medallions to the bottom of the board. They will appear and provide assistance on your current level! Overall we were pleased with the quality of the components, even though there were a few changes we would welcome. Imagine growing up without having been touched in some way by the magic of L. Frank Baum’s classic The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. Do such people really exist? Maybe a farmhouse fell out of the sky at some point and landed on top of you, causing you to miss the whole phenomenon.

Next you may play special cards if you have any in your possession. Special cards are gained by completing specific steps of certain challenges and can alter the game, allowing players to skip drawing a plot card or helping in other ways. Now you must draw a plot card, which advances the chapters plot in some form, either moving the twister, directing Dorothy to a specific area, turning animals grumpy, etc. You must complete the actions on the plot card before continuing. Finally, if you have more than 6 story cards in your hand, you must discard the excess cards. Match even faster with bonuses and power-ups from GLINDA THE GOOD WITCH™!
