USAopoly Clue: Harry Potter Board Game User Manual
A fellow student has seemingly vanished from the famous School of Witchcraft and Wizardry – and it Is up to you to solve the mysterious disappearance. Playing as Harry, Ron, Hermione, Ginny, Luna, or Neville, you must try and discover WHO did It, WHAT spell or Item they used, and WHERE the student was attacked.
Was It Draco Malfoy with a Sleeping Draught In the Owlery?
Move around Hogwarts making suggestions… but watch out! As the castle Is full
of hidden doorways and moving staircases, wheels on the board will keep
changing – revealing secret passages, or even the Dark Mark! Whenever the Dark
Mark appears, beware – when seen, It surely means that Dark Forces are at
work. Pick up Help cards, which will provide you with spells, allies, and
Items that protect you from the Dark Forces and stop you from losing house
points. If you lose all your house points, you will be eliminated from the
game! When you’re sure of your facts, go to Dumbledore’s office to make your
final accusation and win the game!
