Description
Similo Harry Potter is a cooperative guessing game with cards showing characters from the world of Harry Potter. There are 12 cards on the table, one of them is the secret card, and only one player knows which. Without a word, using only other cards, that player has to lead the others to it.
How to play Similo Harry Potter
The player giving clues places a card from their hand next to the cards on the table. If they place it upright, it means the secret card is similar to that character. If they place it sideways, it means the cards similar to it should be eliminated. This way, Rubeus Hagrid can hint at adults, professors or beards, and Bellatrix Lestrange at villainous characters.
The other players discuss it and, in five rounds, eliminate one, two, three, four and finally one more card. If they eliminate the secret card by mistake, everyone loses. If the secret card is the last one left, everyone wins.
