Quacks of Quedlinburg Mega Box - Beyond The Base Game (+ UK GIVEAWAY!)
CLOSING DATE FOR GIVEAWAY IS SUNDAY 17th APRIL 23:59pm GMT.
This Mega Box includes the original The Quacks of Quedlinburg, The Herb Witches expansion and The Alchemists expansion, all in one box!
In The Quacks of Quedlinburg, players are charlatans or quack doctors each making their own secret brew by adding ingredients one at a time. Take care with what you add, though, for a pinch too much of this or that will spoil the whole mixture!
Each player has their own bag of ingredient chips. During each round, they simultaneously draw chips and add them to their pot. The higher the face value of the drawn chip, the further it is placed in the swirling pattern, increasing how much your potion is worth. Push your luck as far as you can, but if you add too many cherry bombs, your pot explodes!
At the end of each round, players gain victory points and coins to spend on new ingredients to add to their bags, depending on the strength of the ingredients in their pots. But players with exploded pots must choose points or coins not both! The player with the most victory points at the end of nine rounds wins the game.
Included in this box are:
The Quacks of Quedlinburg: the base game
The Quacks of Quedlinburg: The Herb Witches: the first expansion, adding Witches that grant powers once per game as well as more ingredient books.
The Quacks of Quedlinburg: The Alchemists: the second expansion introduces nightmares, obsession, hysteria and a new laboratory player board.

I'll just have to figure our how to store it.

Nice review and welcome back!, i've never played the game but I think if i get it i'd get the mega box as I like to have some variety to change things up as I go. I got a carcassone big box for a cheap price after only playing the game once before and after dozens of plays Ive never had the urge to buy anything more for the game or even used all the mini expansions it comes with. Zatu is probably the best site in the UK, never had an issue with them and I always find it cool they ship games in reused kickstarter boxes , but sometimes my wife thinks i've backed whats on the side before we open it 😆

I'm definitely with you on how ridiculous some big boxes are, I previously owed both the Fresco and Alhambra big boxes and sold them both as there was no need for those huge coffin boxes, went back to the base games and bought the expansions I wanted separately. As for Quacks, my favourite moment is when someone pulls out the wrong cherry bomb entirely against the odds and their face just drops and they'll usually swear, I know it's great cause I'll be generally doing the exact same thing in a round or two.

If you buy the BigBox and the 2nd Expansion the Alchemists you have 1 more variant to Play: Wolfgangs Wechselstube, the Promo Expansion for the Base game. So the MegaBox isn't that Mega at all, because the price is just the same and you have more Variation of the game in the bigbox for the same money. Maybe you than have also some more Tokens cause every company that makes board Games always try to reduce the Material and the Produktion costs.

Quacks is a game that I only played with adults in the past and really enjoyed it for the fun, switch off your brain factor. I recently played it with my 2 kids (5 and 7) and had an absolute blast! It was easy enough for them to understand and is one of the only games I own that can be played with both adults and the family. I like the look of the expansions for adding options for the adult plays. Great info, keep up the awesome work Luke!

I would really enjoy a copy of quacks. I have played a friends copy a few times in a row at a games night. I found it a clean and fun bag building game. It's fun and frustrating as no matter how you build your bag of ingredients, the white cherry bombs still find a way out. To me, the end game was strangely anti-climactic, as it was very difficult to catch a leader. Still, really enjoyed my few plays of it. The expansions look interesting, thanks for reviewing it all together.

@@TheBrokenMeeple , yeah, the integration does seem odd. Rat tails, really? It was rare that I've seen it change the leader though, from my experience, it does keep players in the game. More than the rat tails, I think this game is about building combos and being fortunate enough to draw into the combo. If that's what put the leader in front and they're able to do it again, the rat tails won't help enough.

Rat tails weren't the deciding factor, but definitely kept me in the game for the final round.

New intro? :D Quacks is my go-to gateway game which is still fun for frequent gamers. I think the winner is going to have a lot of fun with it! Now gotta finally watch the Sentinels video 😊

Quacks has been a great game to introduce people to and generally gone down well, however my partner detests the luck of it so now she always sits out. Maybe not the game for everyone, but it's a great time filler even if not the strategists idea of fun

It really is for a specific group, even I only play it now and again.

I’ve been on the fence… can it play 6? If I won it, I’d have to buy the upgrades from bgg. Also the subtitle said “welcome to the broken meatball” I thought that was worth mentioning 😂

Only 5 players. And lol, this is why I don't do subtitles for other languages! :P

What a waste. XD Everything fits into the main box of the base game. Everything!

Quacks is a great game, I played it couple of times with a friends and it was a blast! Green/ spider tokens are the hardest one but they add so much to drill of drawing

I hate box sizes for games. I have fit all this content (main + 2 expansions) in the base game box. Including having the tokens in coin protectors.

Not played quacks. Looks like a game that would see alot of play time as dont play with any heavy gamers. Plus scaling well a plus. Cant think of any funny names 😕

I think it’s great some people like this game but I personally am not a fan of it.
