Quick Start Guide

Use the Quick Start Guide and the recommended components to help learn Tea Witches. It describes the first round and guides players through each step.

1 Assemble the City Center and Tea Fountain boards using the Fountain centerpiece (see Fountain Assembly). Place the assembled board in the center of the table and add a bowl to each of the recessed areas of the Fountain. Randomly place each color of Tea tokens into one of the Fountain bowls.

2 Set up the BOOtiques around the City Center as follows:

2a The Full Moon Market: Sort the Upgrade tiles by size. Shuffle and place them face down as shown, then reveal three small tiles, two medium tiles, and one large tile face up.

2b Celebri-Tea Crush: Shuffle the Celebri-Tea cards to create a draw deck, then reveal the top three cards.

2c Brew-2-Go: Shuffle the 2-Prestige and 4-Prestige To-Go Order cards separately. Place both decks face down.

2d Mai’s Special Teas: Shuffle the Special-Tea cards and separate them into three equal stacks. Place each stack face up.

2e Hex Support: Place the Hex Support board beside Hex Support and add the Hex Ward tiles to the corresponding spaces.

3 Create a supply of Toppings and Coins and place them near the board.

4 Place the Teaquinox Faire board beside the City Center board. Shuffle the four Faire tiles and randomly place one face up in each space. Place the Faire tracker on the leftmost tile.

5 Set the Score Pad aside for end game scoring (see Game End for details).
