Harry Potter: Hogwarts Battle – Defence Against the Dark Arts

Players take turns playing cards, taking actions and and acquiring new cards to improve their decks and defensive capabilities. Cast spells and hexes, equip items and recruit allies to stun the opponent; the first player to stun their rival three times wins. The game is a two-player competitive deck-builder themed around practical Defence Against the Dark Arts lessons and escalating Dark Arts activity, with each turn focused on hand management, card acquisition and tactical play.

    Nice game that can be fun at times but overstays its welcome, suffers from kingmaking and is more fiddly than I would like for a simple deck building game.

  • Alshter5.5

    Decepción: Se alarga más de lo que debiera y se puede ensuciar tanto un mazo que apenas puedas hacer nada, no es divertido.
