Harry Potter: Hogwarts Battle - Defence Against the Dark Arts

Harry Potter: Hogwarts Battle – Defence Against the Dark Arts is a competitive deck-building game designed for two players, inspired by the cooperative game Harry Potter: Hogwarts Battle.

• Deck-Building Mechanic: Players start with a basic deck and enhance it by acquiring new cards, including spells, items, and allies, to strengthen their abilities and strategies.
• Strategic Depth: The game introduces Hex cards, which can negatively affect a player's deck, adding an extra layer of strategy as players must manage and mitigate these detrimental effects.
• Thematic Elements: The game features familiar characters and elements from the Harry Potter universe, immersing players in the magical world as they engage in duels and defend against dark forces.

How to Play:

• Setup: Each player selects a house and receives corresponding house cards and movers. Players then place their bases on the practice mat, facing each other.

• Winning the Game: The first player to stun their opponent three times wins the game.
