Effect & use
Reveal the card when the reactive condition occurs, resolve only its effect immediately, then discard it. The same card may instead be played normally for its movement value, without applying the reactive effect.
Where to find it / how to resolve it
Hold a card with the lightning-bolt icon and wait for the exact condition printed in its effect text.
Restrictions & timing
- The icon does not permit a free out-of-turn movement; only the triggered effect is resolved.
- A non-reactive effect is normally resolved during the player’s own turn; every card’s stated conditions still apply.

Consistent terms, section search and two-side teaching
Unified 35 sourced English–Chinese terms and registered all three open rule questions. Search and guide backlinks now lead to matching sections in the current language. Added card-flow diagrams, conditional Dark Arts lessons and exact movement allowances alongside the five existing House comparisons. Unknown rules, routes, card effects and future draws remain unfilled.

Content quality work in this revision
Added a 24-category component catalogue, nine sourced card examples and a rechecked Alohomora entry; the catalogue remains an identified sample rather than a complete Acquire Deck. Added a complete setup and first-round walkthrough with a player-count checklist, cross-links across all eight guides, reference information boxes, a clarification register, page-specific history and local correction drafts. This records reviewed preview content, without announcing the custom-domain launch.
