Julien Delval is perhaps most well known for his beautiful and exquisitely detailed illustrations that appear on many fantasy book covers for adults and teens. Julien is also a sought-after illustrator for board games, which is how this particular puzzle came to be. Mal\u00e9diction was originally the cover art for a now out-of-print game by Alea-Ravensburger in Germany. The timely resuscitation of this thematic cover art seemed a perfect fit for a Halloween-themed puzzle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whimsies for this puzzle are themed around sorcery, alchemy and creatures associated with Halloween. Clever puzzlers may also find all the necessary “ingredients” to make their own Feature Creature!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More information about Julien Delval can be found at his blog<\/a> and at the Bureau 21 Gallerie<\/a> website. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
