Master the Five is a cooperative hand-management card game for 4-5 players. One player will take on the role of a master, and all other players will initially take on the role of apprentices eagerly seeking to learn magic. To win, all apprentices must graduate to become masters by casting spells and gaining power in each of five different magic disciplines. However, apprentices are inexperienced and foolhardy with spells, casting uncanny incantations that tend to do more harm than good. If any player dies, all players lose. Therefore, masters will try and protect themselves and others by countering incoming spells and planning powerful sorcery spells. Don't forget that so much spell power in one place can cause horrible electrical storms, so strategize as a group to win as quickly and efficiently as possible! —description from the designer
