From Osprey Games:
Osprey Games is delighted to announce that we will be publishing Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell: A Board Game of English Magic, a new game set in the world of Susanna Clarke’s cult-classic novel, coming in June 2019.
Created by renowned designers Marco Maggi and Francesco Nepitello (War of the Ring, The Battle of the Five Armies) the game sees 2-4 players compete to become the most celebrated magician of the age, while building up the power to take on the gentleman with the thistledown hair.
First published in 2004, Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell was a publishing phenomenon and has sold over one million copies to date. Longlisted for the Booker it was adapted into
Two magicians shall appear in England. The first shall fear me, the second shall long to behold me.
After centuries of absence, magic has returned to England, but not all are using it for good…Take on the role of an aspiring magician and start your journey down the path to greatness. Collect rare books, flit between social engagements, and impress your peers with feats of magic. Be careful to strike a balance between your studies and your status, for the gentleman with the thistle-down hair has plans of his own, and it will take all of your strength to stop him.
Created by award-winning design team Marco Maggi & Francesco Nepitello, and lavishly illustrated by Ian O’Toole, this game takes players on an adventure through the world of Susanna Clarke’s cult-classic book.
