Some curiosities
General
Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom is an interactive game found in the Magic Kingdom at the Walt Disney World Resort in Florida. The premise of the game is that Hades is trying to take over the Magic Kingdom and Merlin is recruiting park guests as new apprentices. The player, in the position of new apprentice sorcerers helps Merlin the Magician thwart Hades' plan by attacking notorious Disney villains that can be found throughout the park's themed lands (except Tomorrowland) by using special spell cards.

People Gamming
You’ll probably encounter a line of 5–10 people ahead of you at each portal, especially if you play during the afternoon. One complete adventure should take about 30–60 minutes to play, depending on how crowded the park is. If the game sounds too confusing, A Pirate’s Adventure in Adventureland is easier.

Age
It is great for all genders and ages (my 30-something husband is the biggest fan in our family). I would say it is a little more geared towards boys (especially boys who are gamers). Our 8-year-old son loves it. The game offers a great alternative to the princess activities that our daughter loves to do in the Magic Kingdom. But that being said, our 5-year-old daughter also thinks it is really cool to play.

Firehouse
The main sign-up area is the Main Street Firehouse, but there is also an outpost located behind the Ye Olde Christmas Shoppe. The first time you play, the Main Street Firehouse is the best option because they have practice portals. But after the first time, we like using the Christmas shop location because it is usually a little less crowded.

Card trading
Is a huge part of the game. It is also a great way to interact with other park guests. Don’t be afraid to offer up trades to others you see playing. Our son also enjoys trading cards with his friends who are also Disney lovers! Generally players will trade 1 for 1 within levels of cards (ie. star for star, lightning for lightning).

Each person
That has paid park admission can get a pack of cards each day that you enter the Magic Kingdom. So even if someone in your group isn’t playing, you can have them scan their entrance ticket or Magic Band to get a set of cards. During our last trip, we were able to combine all four family members onto the same game. So we only needed the one key card, but could get 4 packs of cards each day.

Complete
If you complete the entire game (by defeating Hades) you can get an extra set of cards that day, so don’t forget to go and get them.

Difficult
There are also different difficulty levels available. When you defeat Hades and go to pick up a new set of cards, they will ask if you want to move up to the next level of difficulty or stay at your previous level. With each level, correct card selection becomes increasingly important (and difficult).

Super rare cards
While there were reports from early sorcerers of super rare cards (61-70) being found in the free card packs, it is generally thought that these can now only be found in special booster packs that can be found in the Emporium. Each of these booster packs contains 7 cards (including one super rare lightening card) and a board/tokens that can be used to play a version of the game at home.

Busy time
Be prepared to wait at the portals, especially if it a busy time at Disney. Usually waits aren’t too long and the lines move quickly.

So long
It can take 20-30 minutes to defeat each villain and up to 5 hours to complete a whole game. That being said, Sorcerers may not be the best option if it is your first/only trip to Disney since there are so many other things to see and do.
