I made this original game for my friends and thought that a print and play version of it might help make time in quarantine go by faster for those that are stuck at home. It’s sort of a mix between a quiz and a party game, where you get to enjoy spending time, and get up to some mischief, at Hogwarts.

It focuses on adventure and laughter. Everyone has a chance to win, no matter their level of HP knowledge or skills. You will feel ridiculous and slightly embarrassed, but so will the other players – It’s a bonding experience.

It wouldn’t be a real wizarding game without a feel of magic, so there’s a lot of different parts, like wands and elixirs. Also, the board piece is inspired by the Maurauder’s Map.

Short about the game:

The players are students arriving at Hogwarts for an exciting year of adventures: You learn to master spells, duels, potions and pass your exams before facing Voldemort himself. Here spells fly in all directions, so wands at the ready if you please!

It took me a few years to develop the game, then two more to translate it from my native Norwegian into English, while also making instructions for you on how to print your own copy. There are probably still errors here and there, or things that are unclear if new situations occur that havn’t been encountered for by the rules. I hope you’ll let me know how it felt to play. If you have questions or want to give constructive feedback I’d much appreciate it.
