  1. The Lego rendition of The Boy Who lived is a seriously charming take on the life of a wizard, with loads of gameplay variety and an emphasis on discovery.
  2. As much fun as previous DS games, though Potter perhaps doesn't translate quite as well to Lego.
  3. There are a lot of characters, magic tricks and secrets to discover. The controls are a bit awkward but the charming lego world will entertain you for a couple of hours.

Year 2 is also good, you learn some great spells however some of the events don't follow the correct order and the levels were a bit longer. Full Review »
