Uh-oh! With their fairy dust running low, spell practice at Fairy School is going hilariously wrong and the fairies need your help to find their magic! Collect cards, use the magic spell spinner and avoid the cheeky Trixie Pixies to build your fairy, refill your fairy dust and win the game!
Funny Fairies is a multi award-winning children’s card-collecting board game with monster-slipper-wearing, giant-carrot-holding, bumblebee-costume-rocking fairies all trying to find their magic after spell practice has gone hilariously wrong!
With 3 levels of play to introduce children to strategic thinking, Funny Fairies will grow with your child and entertain the family time and time again!
All levels are for 2-4 players. Level 1 is ideal for children age 3+, with Levels 2 and 3 designed to be introduced as they grow.
In a nutshell, the basic gameplay is to pick up the top card from the draw pile and place it on the correct space on your board until your fairy is built...
...If only it was that simple!
The first player to build the correct ‘Magic Fairy’ required for the level being played instantly wins the game and places the fairy dust piece on their basket!
Once a player has built the correct ‘Magic Fairy’ required for the level being played, they spin the magic spell spinner on each subsequent turn…
The first player to land the spinner on the same colour as their basket card casts the correct spell to refill their magic fairy dust, places the fairy dust piece on their basket and wins the game!
You each have your own game board, used to collect your cards and build your fairy.
'Magic Fairy' cards always replace 'Funny Fairy' cards on the game board in Levels 1 and 3.
'Funny Fairy' cards replace 'Magic Fairy' cards on the game board when playing Level 2's extended rule (see below).
Shout out "Trixie Pixie!" and take any one card from any player's board to use on your own board!
Spin the magic spell spinner to cast a spell...
...Will your spell go right or wrong?! [Take 2 cards; take 1 card; discard 1 card; end of turn]
See '2 Ways to Win' above for how this piece is used to win the game!
