The fourth film adaptation of the Harry Potter series is accompanied by the second Harry Potter Top Trumps pack: Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. The film will be packed with magic, spells and wizardry and so is are the Top Trumps! Harry and his pals (and enemies) are rated on categories including Magic, Cunning, Courage, Wisdom and Temper. This pack can be played with Harry potter and The Prisoner of Azkabanm for an extra special Top Trumps Treat. Magic!
Top Trumps has been played since the 1970s when the first packs took the playgrounds of the UK by storm. And its success is partly due to how easy and compelling it is to play: shuffle and deal all the cards face down. Each player takes their cards and holds them so that they can see the top card only. The player to the dealer's left starts by reading out a selected statistic (e.g. Weight or Speed). The other players then read out the same statistic from their own top cards. The player with the best or highest value wins and places all the top cards including their own to the bottom of their own pile. It is then that player's turn to choose a statistic from the next card. If two or more cards share the top value or data is unavailable for that statistic, then all the top cards are placed in the middle and the same player chooses from the next card. The winner of that hand takes all the cards from the middle as well. The person with all the cards at the end is the winner, easy. Classic.

An unexpectedly excellent toy My daughter found these at a time when she had pocket money burning a hole in her purse, and I'm surprised to admit that she's played with them ever since. The cards are well made and solid, and the rating system is easy for a child to grasp with some complexities that an adult can use to actually win occasionally! She plays with her little sister, friends, whatever adult she can coraal into sitting still for long enough, and when she can't find a victim she spends time sorting by category or... more info
Best game ever Our son, 6 years old, received these cards as a gift for Christmas and he has loved it since then. He plays the game over and over with friends or with us his parents. I must say that this game is value for money and excellent for a Harry Potter fan. The cards are not torn easily and they are really nicely done with nice photos and golden letters. The box that follows is also not broken easily and is excellent to keep the cards in.
Great Fun These are great fun for any Harry Potter Fan. There's not much skill involved as it's mainly down to the cards you are dealt but it's still quite varied and some games last loads longer than others. I've played with up to 4 people and it's still great. I'm an adult and still love these. Only one thing is there's no card for Voldemort for some reason.
A good fun thing very enticing poses. well done harry!
