Summoner Wars (Second Edition): Starter Set

Summoner Wars (2009, 2022) has been called “Chess, the card game” and even “Cards, the chess game.” We think it would be cool if Plaid Hat Games released a chess variant of Summoner Wars. Or, when you and a friend play Summoner Wars (or chess), have one player play one game and the other play the other game, and see how that goes. Somebody should put those rules up on Reddit. No matter. For now, enjoy Pete’s unboxing of Summoner Wars (Second Edition): Starter Set (2021) designed by Colby Dauch and published by Plaid Hat Games, which is a great holiday gift for whatever holiday doesn’t offend you. Join the cult of this cult classic game. Well, maybe not “cult.” That’s a whole other thing. People really like this game. Maybe you will like it, too. Check out our unboxing of this expansion, which, by the way, can be played as a standalone game.
