Neville Longbottom's toad, who is carrying important information, is off to find Harry Potter. As the toad is wandering through the woods, he is captured by Lord Voldemort. Voldemort was planning to cook and eat the toad, but instead implanted a Brain Fry curse on it. The purpose of the curse is to have someone or something follow the same instructions over and over, until they go crazy. Voldemort then tossed the toad over his shoulder, let out a loud laugh, and continued on his way. The instructions below were the ones implanted in the toad's brain. Go find a small marker to represent the toad, print out or make the game sheet, and follow the instructions. You can use your finger on the screen also.
Note. Harry is a Gryffindor and is considered Gold color.( If you make the game board, make a card with a Gryffindor shield, and paste a copy of Harry on the back. Put this card, shield side up ,in the same position as diagram..Then. set up the board with Harry hidden. In other words, cut out all the shields and paste the on cardboard squares. You can carry this around and show your friends.Also,make a copy of the instructions on a piece of paper or card.)

1.Place the toad, or whatever marker you use on any GRYFFINDOR shield.( Don't start on Harry.)
2.Slide the marker left or right to the nearest SLYTHERIN shield.
3.Slide the marker up or down to the nearest GRYFFINDOR shield.
4.Slide the marker diagonally to the nearest SLYTHERIN shield.
5.Slide the marker up or down to the nearest GRYFFINDOR shield.
6.Harry is found by the toad despite Lord Voldemort's curse! Harry then gets the important info and also cures the toad of the curse.
