5.0 out of 5 stars A lot like Clue, but with a cool Harry Potter theme!
This game is pretty much a Harry Potter version of clue. You try to figure out which student cast which spell in which room. It is not hard to learn or play, but is it very fun. I played it at my birthday party and people were begging me to let them play again! The game pieces are little wizard hats with stars on them. Peeves is there and if he catches you have to go...

3.0 out of 5 stars Good game, but a little disappointing
This game was a decent game, but it was just a Harry Potter version of Clue. Even though you don't need to know anything about Harry Potter to play, it defeats the purpose of making the game a Harry Potter version. Being a kid myself, I did find it fun, but it wasn't what I thought it would be. All you do it hop around the board guessing who did what with what and where...

This game is pretty much a Harry Potter version of clue. You try to figure out which student cast which spell in which room. It is not hard to learn or play, but is it very fun. I played it at my birthday party and people were begging me to let them play again! The game pieces are little wizard hats with stars on them. Peeves is there and if he catches you have to go back to start. There are cool pictures on each of the game cards. You can find secret passages in the game so you can get to places faster.

This review is from: Harry Potter Mystery At Hogwarts Game (Board Game)
As stated in the other reviews, this game combines Harry Potter with Clue, but also adds other aspects of strategy that Clue does not have. There is a ghost game piece that players can move to block or bump other players on the board, and the addition of game cards makes this more complex than Clue.

The artwork on the gameboard is exceptionally detailed, and the gamepieces are of higher quality than typical board games. This game is definitely a deal at the price it is being sold for.

My only suggestion to people considering this game is that, like Clue, it is best played with 3 or more people. I initially tried to play this with two people and it seemed to end too quickly.

Otherwise, this is a fun and exciting trip to Hogwarts!

This review is from: Harry Potter Mystery At Hogwarts Game (Board Game)
The Mystery at Hogwarts game is the best game I ever played.I played with my friend for 11 games straight!Its resemblence to Clue makes it even better.Even if your not a big Harry Potter fan, like me, you will still enjoy the game alot.The more rooms than Clue makes it a little bit more challenging, and the ghost is a great add on to the game.Whatever you do, go out and buy this game!

This review is from: Harry Potter Mystery At Hogwarts Game (Board Game)
This game IS like Clue, but it has differences. There are seceret passages that must be found first, a ghost to send you back to the start, cards that can help or hurt you...Really it is like several games in one. It is fun and has educational potential. I am an "adult" but still love it. A good buy for any Harry Potter fan!

This game was a decent game, but it was just a Harry Potter version of Clue. Even though you don't need to know anything about Harry Potter to play, it defeats the purpose of making the game a Harry Potter version. Being a kid myself, I did find it fun, but it wasn't what I thought it would be. All you do it hop around the board guessing who did what with what and where. If I were you, I would by the trivia game, which is much more Harry Potter oriented. But overall, it was an ok game, and it is good for parents who know nothing about Harry Potter to play with their kids.

This review is from: Harry Potter Mystery At Hogwarts Game (Board Game)
We played this game at Thanksgiving with all of my cousins, and we all loved it! We ranged in ages from 12 to 21, and my mom even wanted to play. You do not have to know anything about the Harry Potter books to play this game. There is no trivia or anything like that involved. It's fun, competitive, and exciting! I love sending my sister back to start with Peeves!! I would recommend this game to anyone looking for a fun, easy game that doesn't require you to think too much!

This review is from: Harry Potter Mystery At Hogwarts Game (Board Game)
This game is extremely fun. At my mother's friend's house the other day, we discovered this amazing game. We played it throughout the evening, and had a blast. Similar to the well-known game of "Clue", it is fairly easy to learn how to play. It isn't really an educational game, but does strengthen logic skills. In this game you must discover who cast what spell in which classroom. A ghost wanders throughout the school, and beware! he can bump you back to the starting square. As you make your way to different classrooms and find out who is not the culprit, watch out for a person who knows the amswer to the mystery! If they get to 'Fluffy's Folder" and guess the answer, they win! But an incorrect geuss knocks them out of the game. Have fun with this exciting game, which all Harry Potter fans should love!!

This review is from: Harry Potter Mystery At Hogwarts Game (Board Game)
I got Harry Potter Mystery at Hogwarts game for Christmas and I love it. The game instructions are very easy to follow and not complicated at all. Learning how to play this game was a sinch for my entire family. All of us have been playing it almost every day since we got it. The board is really decorative and colorful which will make anyone want to play and once you've started, you can't stop. All of the rules and peices help make it a great game and it's not only fun, but it helps your imagination grow to higher levels. This awesome game is the re-creation of Clue and much easier for every one. This wonderful game will entertain all of your family and guests and it's easy to follow. This is really a great game for children and adults to play!!
