Players take on the roles of Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, Ron Weasley, or Neville Longbottom to protect the wizarding world from dark forces. The game involves building influence to cast spells, gather allies, and discover magical artifacts. A deck of over 140 cards allows players to strengthen their abilities throughout gameplay.
The experience unfolds across seven progressively challenging adventures, with each game box (1-7) introducing new obstacles and secrets as players work to defend Hogwarts. The set includes 252 cards, 4 dice, 7 game boxes with individual rules, 4 player boards, 8 villain control tokens, and 70 chip pieces. Designed for 2-4 players.
Things to Keep in MindHowever, a notable concern for several purchasers has been inconsistent manufacturing quality, with reports of missing or defective components, cards with varying print quality, and packaging issues. Some players also point to gameplay frustrations, such as instances where starting card draws or villain combinations can create difficult early-game imbalances, and a perceived lack of strategic options like deck thinning. Why You'll Like ItPlayers often find this game an engaging and accessible cooperative deck-building experience, particularly appreciating its progressive campaign that introduces mechanics gradually across 'years' of play. This design makes it a good entry point for newcomers to deck-building games while offering enjoyable replayability for both Harry Potter fans and general board game enthusiasts.
