Wish is an Action card from Nocturne. It's a one shot that gains a card costing up to to your hand—in other words, it magically turns itself into whatever card you need, just when you need it.

Preview

If you are careful, you’ll gain a Wish instead of receiving a Hex. And a Wish is pretty sweet, I tell you what. It’s a one-use ticket to gain any card costing or less directly to your hand. Sometimes that will be a Gold, but often there’s something you’d rather have that fits the moment just perfectly. Maybe you’ve got a hand full of Victory cards and need a Shepherd to sort them out. Perhaps you already have one Idol in hand and want another one to give out some Curses. Lots of options there.

Secret History

Magic Lamp gave out an Artifact first ( and 4 ), then a Genie who could make 's for you, then three Wishes which naturally make s. It's what the Genie had done and it sounded good for the card name. Then Leprechaun got Wish to give Wish more to do.
