Board Game Arena

The time has come to take the Potions course final exam!
Here is Potion Explosion!

The rules have not changed a bit: take an Ingredient ball from the Distributor and watch the others fall.

If you connect balls of the same color, they explode ... and you can take them too!

Finish your Potions using the marbles you collect, and drink them to unleash their magical powers.

However, remember that to win the Apprentice of the Year Award, being fast will not be enough: You will also need to prepare the most precious Potions!

A bit of Harry Potter's universe here, filled with a drop of fun : That's what Potion Explosion is made from


Our thanks goes straight to Lorenzo Silva, Stefano Castelli and Andrea Crespi, and to the fantastic Horrrible Guild team for their authorization and help to make this game available! And all of this wouldn't be possible without our developer, apollo1001, who made it playable online and as enjoyable as possible.

"Higitus Figitus Migitus Mum! Prestigitonium! Higitus Figitus Migitus Mum! Prestigitoni-UM!"

Nice "The Sword in the Stone" reference there

Excellent port of the game. The only thing I did not see is if you start with 6 out of 8 potions or all a potions are available to draw. More gameplay will help me answer question.
Amazing user experience. . Thank you for all your work in this game and bringing to BGA.

I love this game and I play regularly on the app developed for Android by Studio Clangore and Asmodee Digital. I was thus excited to see Potion explosion on BGA. Unfortunately, the version for BGA does not have the charme and the playability of the version for Android. Any chance to make it more similar to the latter?

Thank you for the kind words.
To answer your question, the ‘simple game’ fixes the game to the first 6 potions (no lavamancing/stickiness) whereas the alternative gives a random selection of 6 out of the 8 currently available potions.

Great News, thanks @apollo1001, can't wait to try it out today !

This link goes to a game panel, but there's no way to "try" the game from that page. Did the link mean to go somewhere else?

Adding it to your favorites so you can find it in the lobby.

Very good game! I needed a few minutes to switch from the app to the board, but then it works well.
The time limit is to short, especially for beginners. We've been 4 players, all played it before and 3 of us are over the limit.
Not long, but I think a minute more for each player will help to solve that.
Thanks for this great game!

You need to change the time when you set up a table. If you put fast its gonna be less minutes. If you play with friends you can always do "ni time limit" and just chill and play ha.
