Somewhere I read or heard that this game is really awesome, so I looked forward to this episode. I'm glad that they skipped the first two games for us and played the third. I'm sure that gives a better idea of what the games are like. I really like the idea of a whole campaign. I am confused about something. I read and watched a couple of other reviews and people keep saying it has a box for each movie, but there are 8 movies and 7 boxes. I believe that there is a box for each book. Of course, I could be wrong. Maybe people say that because the pictures are from the movies. I don't know. Anyway, it does look cool. It has an expansion, Harry Potter: Hogwarts Battle - The Monster Box of Monsters Expansion, that contains 4 more boxes. It is meant to be played after you have completed the first 7. Although I've read that it fixes some issues, but I guess you just have to wait. On GameNight! They discussed the issue with not being able to buy cards in the marketplace because they come out randomly and may be too expensive, but I saw a video in which the guy explained that he had found a fix for this on BGG. It involves sorting the cards by price. Then you deal 4 from the cheap pile and 2 from the expensive pile (I think). When you buy a card you can choose which pile to replace it from. I don't know if there's a fix for really bad enemies coming out too early. I just did a quick price check and it looks as if you can get it for anywhere from $40 to $50. Apparently Bed Bath and Beyond has it for $50! (I didn't realize I could shop for games there. I imagine it's just on their website, but who knows?)
