Grimoire*

Grimoire, which means "spellbook" in French, requires players to strategically use their spells to succeed. Each turn starts with revealing cards that provide victory points or characters that can help earn points. Players secretly select spells from their spellbook, revealing them in order from weakest to strongest, with the possibility of disrupting opponents’ strategies. The game ends when a player collects a set number of character or treasure cards, and the one with the most points wins. Different versions vary in player count and game-ending conditions, with some introducing new character and treasure cards, as well as upgraded game components.
