Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the game is straightforward: ensure the playing area is clear and all game components, including the magic lens, are accessible. Because the game relies on the physical condition of the boards and the lens, handle these items with care to prevent scratches that could interfere with the viewing experience. After each session, wipe the magic lens with a soft, microfiber cloth to remove fingerprints or dust. Store the game in its original packaging in a dry environment to prevent the cardboard components from warping. Avoid using liquid cleaners on the boards or the lens, as this may degrade the optical coating or damage the printed surface.
