<\/a><\/p>\nLucky for us we chose a slow time to arrive and there were only a few people in line ahead of us. The process to get the game cards is a little
\nslow and you can tell that the Cast Members are still in the learning phase. While waiting in line we had time to read the recruiting posters and watch a short video where Merlin tells you that he needs help in the Magic Kingdom. Leave it to Disney to make waiting in line part of the entertainment!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
After a few minutes a Cast Member invited us to the counter where we began the check in process. She asked us if we wanted to play together or Next we walked over to what looks like a horse stall.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n We were instructed to hold our key card up to the key hole.<\/p>\n Since we were playing two games we each had to do this individually. The video seemed well done, but the CM talked over the video and it was hard to listen to her give directions and listen to the set up for my mission. I think this is where the CMs need a little help. They should The portals are marked on a map with a symbol that doesn\u2019t seem to match up with anything in particular.\u00a0 Walking into the general area it is pretty easy to guess where you need to go, you only need to look for the line of people holding maps and waiting in front of a random window.\u00a0 They aren\u2019t very secret!\u00a0 At one point we were looking at the map discussing where to go when a CM walked up to us and pointed us in the correct direction.\u00a0 Nice of her, but again, it kind of ruined the secretive nature of the game.<\/p>\n Kerry and I had to coordinate with each other where we would go next as we were trying not to jump around too much.\u00a0 Playing 2 games simultaneously \u00a0was okay for us because we were both in Frontierland and Liberty Square, but if one of us had gotten another land we At one point I noticed two guys playing the game together.\u00a0 They each had three ring binders with those see through pocket pages that are used for baseball or Pokemon card collectors.\u00a0 I watched them play their round and at the end of each little video you are prompted to hold<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>
\nseparately. We chose separately because we wanted 2 sets of Spell cards and that was the only way to get them because you are only allowed one set of Spell cards per day per park ticket. The Cast Member took each of our park tickets and swiped them in the same way that you would swipe a credit card. She then activated two sets of Spell cards and gave us each a park map with all of the secret portals labeled.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/a><\/a><\/a><\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>
\ngive the guest a moment to watch the video and then ask if there are any questions. \u00a0My mission had the Pocahontas characters in it and Kerry\u2019s had Tiana from the Princess and the Frog. \u00a0The video ends by telling you were to begin your mission. Even though we were playing separate games, Kerry and I both ended up with the same location in Liberty Square for our first stop. We thanked the CM and headed off to that location.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
\nwould have had to take turns playing the game to completion.\u00a0 Logistically it wouldn\u2019t work to play one game in Frontierland and one in Fantasyland at the same time, unless we split up.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/a>
\nup a spell card.\u00a0 These guys held up their notebook pages and were able to cast multiple spells at once.\u00a0 I was intrigued by their large collection of
\ncards and the fact that somehow they knew that they could play more than one spell card at a time. \u00a0Before they walked off I politely stopped them and we chatted for a few minutes about the game.\u00a0 It turned out that they were Cast Members themselves and on their time off they have been coming into the Magic Kingdom to play the game.\u00a0 I expected that they would be a the highest level of the game, but they said that they
\nwere only at the second level.\u00a0 I found this a bit surprising and it made me think that they average guest will never make it to the highest level of the game if this is the case.\u00a0 The CM told me that he is only allowed one set of Spell cards per day,\u00a0 just like anyone else and that he had been playing almost everyday\u00a0 for two weeks!\u00a0 He also said that he had not yet acquired all of the Spell cards, that he still needed to get the rare cards which he said are pretty hard to find (rare!).<\/p>\n<\/a>
