Wizard's Quest

Modern Conquest and War Games

Wizard's Quest is a fantasy board wargame designed by Willis Carpenter, Garret Donner, Mick Uhl and Michael Steer, and published by Avalon Hill in North America in 1979, with cover art by Chris White. Two to six players compete for control of the island kingdom of Marnon, maneuvering forces across the board and contesting territory in the fantasy setting. The first player to reclaim all three of their treasures from the kingdom wins the game, giving each session a clear objective driving its territorial contest.
