Vampire Wedding Planner (Magic Minigame) [Innistrad: Crimson Vow Minigame]

2+ players | 2+ packs | 10 minutes

OBJECTIVE:

Compete to be the best wedding planner for the bride Olivia Voldaren, by matching cards to her chosen theme.

GET READY:

Each player opens a booster and sets aside all cards without _Magic_ card backs. Then each player randomly selects a nonland, non-colorless _Magic_ card from their own cards without revealing it to the rest of the players. Shuffle all players' remaining cards together and place the stack face down in the center of all players. Each player's selected card is their wedding *theme*, and they may secretly look at their own card at any time. Each player is dealt 4 cards, then turn over the top card of the stack to create a discard pile. Randomly determine who goes first. Then take turns counterclockwise.

LET'S PLAY

Players take turns drawing and discarding cards, trying to create a hand of cards with the highest point value. Players may draw the top card of the deck *OR* pick up *any* card from the discard pile. If a card is taken from the discard pile, they must *take every card discarded on top of that card* as well. Whenever a player picks up one or more cards, they must discard one.

Points are scored as follows:

• 1 point for each card in your hand that matches your theme card's *color* or *mana value*

• 1 point for each artifact or foil card (Olivia likes shiny things)

• 1 point for a land (maximum of 1). The location of the wedding.

• -1 point for any card that does *NOT* count for one of the above

*Cards can count for multiple points if they meet multiple criteria.*

TO WIN:

Play ends after each player has taken four turns. Players reveal all of their cards and pitch their wedding theme as they total their points. The player with the most points wins. Ties are shared.
