Pepper & Carrot: The Potion Contest is a competitive abstract puzzle game in which players try to be the first one to complete three recipes in order to become the witches' assistant. The game is a brain burner as you are trying to get the best of the order in each turn thinking ahead the possible use of the other two visible orders for the next turns. Each player has 18 ingredients placed randomly on a grid of 3x6 that shapes their board. They also have three orders they can use to replace a common order they do not wish to use. Each turn an order is to be used whether it is to rotate, push or switch ingredients. A recipe is completed when the ingredients are aligned as the recipe in the board shows. ••• El Caldero de la Bruja es un juego competitivo abstracto con tintes de rompecabezas donde los jugadores intentaran ser los primeros en completar 3 recetas para poder convertirse en el Asistente de la Bruja. El juego puede ser quemacoco ya que lo que se intenta es aprovechar al maximo la orden disponible cada turno y preveer el uso de las otras dos ordenes reveladas que seran usadas en los proximos turnos. Cada jugador tienen 18 ingredientes situados al azar en una grilla de 3x6 que formara su tableu. Tambien tienen a su disposición 3 ordenes con las que podrán reemplazar por única vez una orden comun que no deseen o no les sirva usar. Cada turno una orden es usada ya sea para rotar, empujar o intercambiar ingredientes. Una receta será completada cuando los ingredientes sean alineados como muestra el tablero principal.
