USAopoly Releases “Scrabble: World of Harry Potter”

by · Published · Updated

Back in February, USAopoly got fans excited with an announcement about three upcoming Harry Potter-themed games. Now the time has come to test your knowledge of wizarding vocabulary because Scrabble: World of Harry Potter has hit stores in the United States and Canada.

 

 

This twist on the familiar board game Scrabble allows players to spell magical words such as “Polyjuice” and “Alohomora” alongside Muggle words allowed in the regular version of the game. Characters’ first and last names are also allowed, and with words such as “Quidditch” and “Quaffle,” players will finally be able to put those pesky Q letter tiles to good use. Additionally, using words from the wizarding world can also score players more points and help them win the game.

Each game comes with a Harry Potter-themed game board, 100 wooden letter tiles, 4 wooden tile racks, and a drawstring bag. Also included are 26 Harry Potter cards and 4 Magical World Bonus cards. These cards contain ways for players to increase their score by bending the rules of the game, making this version of Scrabble even more magical!

 

Featured in the custom game board design are a Time-Turner, quill, and wand, as well as a Galleon, Sickle, and Knut.Featured in the custom game board design are a Time-Turner, quill, and wand, as well as a Galleon, Sickle, and Knut.

I was given a copy of Philosopher's Stone in 2001, and instantly, I was hooked. Since then, my passion for Potter has been equaled only by my passion for fair access to education (and watching motorsport). A spell I wish could exist in the Muggle world is the summoning charm because this Hufflepuff is not a "particularly good finder"!
