My sister and I (both adults) buy interesting card games to play on the road or at home when we want to do something, but just don't want to spend hours playing other games. Frog Juice was surprisingly fun. It's a little bit like rummy. It takes about 20 minutes. For older players I reccomend combining 2 decks to keep things more interesting. Otherwise the spell ingredients get used up too quickly.
Very fun card game - my six year old boy loves it! October 31, 1999

Collect ingredients like frog juice & monkey powder to complete spells. Use witch cards to "sweep" the discard pile unless someone else has the "witch wash" card. There are quite a few rules, but once we got the hang of it we played again & again. Game dynamics change dramatically when there are 3 or more players. Perfect for that before-bedtime window. I'm buying 6 sets for 1st grade birthday gifts.

My family delights in a Frog Juice competition. We have found that this game can be played repeatedly, with strategy changing if you are playing with 2 or 3 players. You must determine when to play your spells, when to WITCH all the cards, and how to prevent your opponents from completing a spell. My youngest started playing at 5 but the older the better. My 11 year old and I have some tough games. Enjoy.

This is a great family game. We bought a used one at a thrift store, and it turned into my families favorite...we have 4 boys, 14,12,6,4, and all of us can play at once, and even the youngest can win!!
It is fast paced, and challenging with just enough magic!
Sadly, I left the game at a friends house, and she wont give it back, as her family now insists it is thier favorite....so I must replace it to keep peace in my family!
Who would have guessed that an accidental find would turn out to be such a big hit!!!!
This is a must for Halloween fun!

It's just as suited for adults as kids, and a perfect Halloween gift for that spooky someone. If you dug watching The Nightmare Before Christmas, this game is for you.Basic play: capture "ingredient" cards by matching the added values (1-12) of any number of cards in your hand to a discarded card in the center (or vice versa), sweep them all with a "witch" card (but watch out for a "witch wash"), cast a "spell", or send your "black cat" on the prowl for an opponent's power card... Suggestions on improving the game: add the "fair maiden" to the list of ingredients for the sleeping spell (her omission from this spell must be a mistake, since she is the only ingredient card not used in a spell), and if you're playing with more than 2 adults, play with 2 decks to make it harder to keep track of played cards.
