Английская Википедия:Broom Service (board game)
Broom Service is a role selection board game[1] designed by Andreas Pelikan and Alexander Pfister, and published by Ravensburger.[2] It won the 2015 Kennerspiel, the Spiel des Jahres connoisseurs game of the year award.[3]
It is an adaptation of Pelikan's 2008 card game Witches' Brew.[1] In 2016, a card game version was published as Broom Service: The Card Game.[1]
Gameplay
Players assume the role of druids, witches and potion gatherers.[1] Each player receives an identical deck of 10 cards,[1] each representing a role.[4] A potion gatherer card allows the player to collect green, orange, or purple potions along the game board path.[4] A witch card allows the player to move the player's pawn, and a druid card allows the player to deliver potions to a nearby tower of the same colour as the potion.[1] Each card has a 'brave' and 'cowardly' option, which is chosen by the player when it is played.[1]
There are seven rounds in a game, each of which has four turns and an event card that alters game play.[5] Each round, players select four of their ten cards as their hand, and play occurs clockwise.[1] The lead player of the round plays one of their cards and declares the option they have chosen.[1] If the cowardly option is chosen, the player immediately takes the associated action, but if the brave option is chosen they must wait for other players to play their cards.[1] Subsequent players may only play a card if it has the same name as the one played by the round's lead player, also declaring the option they have chosen; otherwise they pass their turn.[1] The last player to play a card that turn and to declare the 'brave' option can perform the action associated with that option; all other players that chose 'brave' forfeit their action for that turn.[1] This is repeated for each of the four cards in the hand for that round.[5]
Players earn victory points by delivering potions to the towers,[5] or by collecting clouds.[4]
Reception
In a review for Meeple Mountain, Kurt Refling states that the game is a "comfortable hour of scheming" and gave it his "highest recommendation".[1]
In a review for Paste, Keith Law stated that the game was "visually appealing".[4]
