However, our best bet for the Golden Snitch is advanced drone technology which can be assigned a random flight path at the beginning of every match and a proximity sensor to speed up when the Seeker tries to catch it. We hope the Golden Snitch, and by extension, the game of Quidditch will be a reality in the real world. span itemprop="name">[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This game is really fun, and is such a clever concept. The best part is catching the snitch when it pops out! The rules are a bit complicated, so it took us a little time to get the hang of all of the different facets of it. It is a fast-moving game, and I agree that it is for kids ages 8 and up. My husband and I enjoy playing this too, so it really is a perfect family game. If your kids love Harry Potter, this game is a no-brainer. They will without a doubt absolutely love it! I would definitely recommend this to any Harry Potter fan!

Harry Potter Board Game: Test your skills in this fast-paced Quidditch-themed game, watch out for Flying Bludgers and catch the Golden Snitch; Strategy Game For 2-4 players ages 8 and upThe Golden Snitch, often simply called the Snitch, was the third and smallest ball used in Quidditch. It was a walnut-sized gold-coloured sphere with silver wings. It flew around the Quidditch field at high speeds, sometimes pausing and hovering in place. The Seeker's goal was to catch the Snitch before the other team's seeker, which was worth one-hundred and fifty points.
Long before the Golden Snitches were created for the purpose of Quidditch, there existed bird a called a Golden Snidget that was thrown into the air before the Quidditch match began. Early Quidditch rules required the seeker of either team to catch this bird for the game to end. Sometime prior to his death on 30 June 1997, Albus Dumbledore assumed that Harry Potter would need the Resurrection Stone set into Marvolo Gaunt's ring at some point in his quest to destroy Voldemort's Horcruxes. He also assumed that Harry would be tempted by the stone if he was able to access it before he was fully ready to accept that he would have to let Voldemort attempt to kill him. To remedy this, he obtained this Snitch and cast further spells on it, encasing the ring within the Snitch, and causing two effects to trigger when it recognised Harry's lips. The first, which would activate at any point when Harry placed the Snitch to his lips, would make the Snitch display the inscription "I open at the close". The second effect, alluded to by the first, would activate when Harry voiced his willingness to die to the Snitch, and would cause the Snitch to open. [3] The Golden Snitch was originally not a ball, but a little magical bird called a Golden Snidget. It was introduced in 1269, when the Chief of the Wizards' Council, Barberus Bragge, unleashed a Golden Snidget during a Quidditch match, offering a reward of 150 Galleons to the player who caught the Snidget.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It was a fun game however it is somewhat difficult and is not for small kids. The instructions are not very clear. My daughter is a huge Harry Potter fan. I expected this game to be a hit.Returns:

The Golden Snitch first appeared in the Harry Potter series in Harry Potterand the Philosopher’s Stonewhen Oliver Wood, the captain of the Gryffindor Quidditch team introduced Harry to the game of Quidditch at the Hogwarts Quidditch grounds. He first presents all the balls used in a Quidditch game, starting with the Quaffle and then the Bludger. Finally, he unveils the Golden Snitch and tells Harry that this is the ball that Harry, as the Seeker must be paying attention to. span itemprop="name">[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I liked the fast pace nature of this game. There was different components to the game which kept it interesting. My kids thought it was fun too!
