Gobgob's familiar is a very hungry toad. Gobgob is also a very hungry toad.
Spellbook is a fantasy strategy board game from Space Cowboys, designed by Phil Walker-Harding. You're a wizard competing in the Annual Grand Rite, each with a spellbook and a familiar to look after. Take magical Materia from the shared Vortex, then use it to learn new spells or feed your familiar. Every spell you learn gives you a lasting power, and clever combos get stronger as the game goes on. The game ends when someone fills their spellbook with seven spells or fully feeds their familiar, and the most points wins. There's a solo mode too.
Gobgob's favourite bit: Timing your spells. Cast one early and you get its power straight away, or hold on and unleash it later at full strength. Gobgob never waits. Gobgob regrets this.
