The Fairy Game

This cooperative matching game has players gather color-matched fairies, fill a magic wand with gems, and banish Winter from the garden. Snowflakes steadily threaten each flower, so trading and removal cards must be used before any bloom freezes over.

The Fairy Game - A Matching Game of Flowers and Fairy Magic! Watch out Fairies! Mr. Winter is trying to freeze over the fairies' treasured flowers! In this game from the award-winning design team at Peaceable Kingdom, players work together to match fairy cards and gather the hidden magic gems before 4 snowflakes land on one flower. Work together to fill the fairies' magic wand and banish Mr. Winter from the garden! On a player's turn, they draw a card for their hand. If at any point they have 3 fairies of the same color they can move that color gem to the wand. Other cards allow for players to trade fairies or remove snowflakes. Also available to be drawn is the Mr. Winter card which requires the player to immediately add a snowflake to a flower. The players win if they move all four of the gems to the wand before Mr. Winter adds four snowflakes to any one flower.
