The Witches is set in the magically charged land of Lancre. Players take on the role of trainee witches, such as Tiffany Aching and Petulia Gristle, learning their craft and dealing with all the problems, both petty and serious, that life on Discworld can throw at them. A subtle blend of headology, magic and, of course, the all-important cup of tea will see our heroines tackle everything from a sick pig to a full-blown invasion of elves. Each player tries to be better at everything than the others, while also cooperating to prevent crises from escalating. Life can be tough for a young witch in Lancre.

Along the way you'll meet Granny Weatherwax, Nanny Ogg and Magrat Garlick, as well as a rich supporting cast of familiar faces from the Discworld series. When things get really tough and you feel you are turning "Black Aliss", you can always have a cup of tea with one of your fellow witches. The Witches can be played compeively, cooperatively, or solo..The Witches: A Disc world Game is the second of three games by Martin Wallace set in Terry Pratchett's Disc world, the first being Disc world: Ankh-Moorpark.

There is a learning curve and playing in cooperative mode made it even more interesting for all. You don't have to be a Pratchett expert to play but it does add to the game when you know the characters. I have not played the Discworld game yet but look forward to getting it now that I know how well the games are put together. This game is complicated enough to keep you interested and easy enough not to frustrate you. Well done! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Game for Discworld Fans! *by J***H on Reviewed in the United States on 26 August 2016* I like this game, although not as much as Discworld: Ankh-Morpork. It's a very different sort of game though. It's like a lighter version of Arkham-Horror, which I love but is too complex for most of my friends who got frustrated with it. It plays much faster than Arkham Horror, and has a nice balance between cooperation and competitiveness. Some people have complained that the game can end very abruptly especially if a losing player realizes they can't win and tries to make everyone lose instead. While this is true, it's really no different than a losing player just getting up and leaving in any other game (also ruining the game for all involved). The game is very nice quality, from the art on the board and cards, and even nice attention to detail like including little baggies for all the cardboard pieces. I highly recommend it to people who are fans of the Discworld books. Pick it up now, because it's out of print and will likely get very expensive like Ankh-Morpork. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ring Side Report-Board Game Review of The Witches: A Discworld Board Game *by E***D on Reviewed in the United States on 28 January 2014* Originally posted on [...], a new idea everyday!Game-The WitchesProducer-MayFair GamesPrice- $50Set-Up/Play/Clean-Up- 2 HoursTL;DR- A fun, non-competitive, competitive game 87.5%Basics-Welcome to Discworld! Take the role of the younger witches of Lancre. Players take turns setting out random problems. Then players get to do two actions after moving. The actions are solving problems or having tea. When you want to solve a problem, you roll two dice. You can then play cards or run away. If you don't run away, you roll two more dice. If your total beats the number on the problem, you take the problem for its points. If you fail, you must move away and take a cackle token. Ones on the dice are cackles; cackles are tokens you take and when you can't take any you gain negative points. Instead of solving a problem after moving, players can have tea with other players at your space and remove cackle counters from everyone involved. There are two types of problems: minor and major. For every two minor problem's you solve, you increase your hand size by 1. For every two major problems you solve, you gain a permanent +1 to your dice pool. The game ends when all the problems are solved or until a situation where everybody loses occurs. If the problems are all solved, then the player with the most points wins.Mechanics-This came is competitive, but there is no fighting between players. This is an interesting experience. Someone wins, but you can't really hurt them at all. Everybody can lose if you don't work together, but you have to play smart to make sure that doesn't happen. I honestly enjoy the experience. You cheer other players on since if they don't win it gets worse for everybody. The simple mechanics of rolling four dice make turns go fast. Cards give you powers, bonus to your rolls, or movement abilities. The whole game works well together. 5/5Theme- The game does make the Lancre come alive. All the problems of the books show up here. Also, all the major locations from the books are here as well. Players get to be four of the different, junior witches with each one having different starting powers. The randomness of events does take a bit a way as the problems come up in strange combinations. That's not game ending, but it's something to note. 4.5/5Instructions- The instructions are not great. They get the point across, and there is a nice cheat sheet. But, the Board Game Geeks forums are full of questions that should have been answered in the instruction book. 3/5Execution- Tokens are nice quality cardboard. The board and cards all have beautiful artwork that looks like the artwork from the books. I liked what I saw when I opened the box. 5/5.Summary- If you like Arkham Horror and the Discworld novels, this is an instabuy. If you want a game with a winner, but no real losers, then this is a great game. It's fun to play a game with your family where you don't compete so much as just try to be the best. I love this game, my wife loves this game, and most likely you will love this game. 87.5% --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sk/products/340239142-discworld-the-witches-board-game](https://www.desertcart.sk/products/340239142-discworld-the-witches-board-game) --- *Product available on Desertcart Slovakia* *Store origin: SK* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
