Codenames – Back to Hogwarts (Harry Potter)

Description

Codenames: Back to Hogwarts (Harry Potter) – A Magical House-vs-House Word Association Game at Mind Games, Australia’s Oldest and Best Board Games Store Since 1977!

Step into the Wizarding World with Codenames: Back to Hogwarts, the first competitive house-vs-house edition of the beloved word game. Perfect for 4–8+ players, this game offers a fresh, Harry Potter-themed twist on classic Codenames, combining magical mechanics with strategic depth for fans of all ages.

• Hogwarts House Rivalry:
  Players are sorted into two rival houses. Each house has a prefect who knows the secrets of Hogwarts’ mysterious card grid. Compete to identify your house’s secret words across the enchanted map before your rivals do!
• Thematic Gameplay:
  • Prefects give single-word clues with an associated number, guiding their team through the castle’s corridors of words and images.
  • Teams take turns guessing—correct guesses reveal cards; wrong guesses—like encountering a locked door, a dead end, or a rival’s card—end that turn.
  • Beware of Argus Filch—finding him immediately ends the game with a victory for the opposing house.
• Earn House Points & House Cup:
  Winning house earns points, and across multiple games, you can track progress toward the coveted House Cup. Each win amps up the competitive fun!
• Innovative Mechanics & Abilities:
  • Each house has access to two unique special abilities that dramatically alter gameplay—adding surprising depths and replay value.
  • House abilities are designed to make each game a new experience, whether you’re a seasoned wizard or a first-year student.
• Beautiful Components & Thematic Flair:
  • 198 double-sided word & picture cards
  • 72 maps, 7 house tiles, and a Sorting Hat token to assign teams.
  • Locked door tiles, Herbology cards, and House-specific tokens add thematic challenges and strategic options.
  • Includes ability cards, Map stand, and Argus Filch figures to elevate the magic and immersion.
• Quick & Magical:
  Play sessions last 15–30 minutes, making it perfect for double features, quick breaks, or dedicated Wizarding battles.
