The book and film series "The School of Magical Animals" captivates countless children in Germany. If your family also has a fan of the adventures of Ida, Benni, and their animal companions, a matching game is an excellent gift idea. However, the selection of games is constantly growing, and it can be difficult to find the right product that is both entertaining and suitable for your child.
My name is Joy, and as a Joybuy Product Recommendation Officer, my job is to provide you with a clear and objective overview. This article introduces various game concepts from the world of magical animals and helps you make an informed decision.
Before you decide on a specific game, a few considerations can help narrow down the choices. The games from Kosmos for "The School of Magical Animals" series are distinguished by their different focuses.
The product world includes more than just classic board games. Consider which activities the child particularly enjoys:
Many of the games are designed as cooperative games for children aged 6 and up. This means players win or lose together as a team. This principle strengthens teamwork, encourages communication, and prevents a competitive atmosphere among players. It's a great choice for a harmonious family game or for children who dislike competing against each other.
Pay attention to the manufacturer's recommended age. The games are generally designed for primary school-aged children, usually 6 years and older. The complexity of the rules and the required skills are tailored to this age group. Also, check the specified number of players to ensure the game is suitable for playing alone, with a partner, or in a larger family group.
Here is a presentation of three different games from "The School of Magical Animals" universe that cater to various gaming preferences.
What makes it special: This magical animals board game features a unique mechanic: a rotating game board. Players must act as a team to bring the magical animals safely to Mister Morrison's pet shop. However, the path there is constantly changing due to the rotating mechanism, which keeps the game exciting. Event cards can further influence the course of the game.
Advantages:
Who is it for? This game is a great choice for families and groups of children (1–4 players) looking for a classic family game with an innovative twist. It is ideal for fans of the series who enjoy completing a mission together.
What makes it special: The Story Puzzle combines three activities: reading, puzzling, and solving riddles. Children first read an exclusive short story in which Murphy the polar bear solves a case. Then, they assemble the 100-piece puzzle, which reveals a detailed illustration with hidden clues. These clues must be found to solve the riddle from the story.
Advantages:
Who is it for? This product is a perfect gift for children aged 6 and up who enjoy both puzzling and reading stories. It is well-suited for early readers and can be played alone or with the help of an adult.
What makes it special: This compact detective game for kids puts sleuthing skills front and centre. Animals have disappeared from the magical pet shop, and players must help Murphy the polar bear identify the culprits. By skilfully combining clues, the players work together to solve the case.
Advantages:
Who is it for? Ideal for 2–4 players aged 6 and up who love riddles and detective stories. It's an accessible entry-level game into the world of deduction games and a great choice for a child's birthday party.

Most games from the manufacturer Kosmos in this series are aimed at children aged 6 and up. This age recommendation is based on the complexity of the game rules and the required cognitive skills. It is always advisable to check the specific information on the product packaging.
No, the games are designed to be understandable and fun even without prior knowledge. The game instructions explain all the necessary background information. However, for fans of the series, the recognition value of characters and places is an added appeal.
A cooperative game is a game where all participants work together towards a common goal. Instead of competing against each other, players form a team and try to overcome the game's challenges together. This promotes team spirit, communication, and collaborative problem-solving.
