—description from the back of the box (English edition)

This game is very close to Enchanted Forest. The differences are: It is only for up to four players. There are only 12 items to be searched. There are no trees but square card board tiles. The German rules text is mostly identical word by word to the original. However, no designers are mentioned. The German edition was published as a special commemorative edition on the occasion of a theater performance of "Der Zauberer von Oos".
