You must have recognized something familiar already. Indeed, Harry Potter and his friends would feel at home with this game, and would surely top the Broomstick tournament.

Broom used to be the main means of transport in the Magical Countries. From very early age young wizards learned to drive it. There was a special subject in the schools of wizards - "Driving a Broom". The best pupils of the schools participated in the annual world championship in broom races - "Formula Broomstick". This year it is you who have to present your school in the world championship. It isn't easy to win the championship. You must cope with all 17 tracks of the tournament and pass through all the obstacles. If you see an obstacle, use a fireball. Fireball is very useful if somebody had the nerve to outrun you - just fire right into his back!

When you have flown through a red ring, you may not be afraid of the next obstacle. All the obstacles are not dangerous if you are flying on the home track of your school. If you fly through a blue ring you will get extra magic power to generate a fireball.
