  1. Other than a couple isolated bits HP and the SS is a mess. And I didn’t play crap like this when I was a kid, at least not for long. I played Sonic. So there ya have it: Harry Potter is better than a Vomit flavored bean, but a little worse than Grass, and on a level with Booger.

    La jugabilidad de este juego se me atascó bastante, sobre todo en la pelea final. Es un poco peor que el siguiente de la saga en mi opinión.

Fortunately, I planned ahead and collected all the wizard cards and lost students' items before going through the trap door, and we all know how the book ends anyway, so I don't think I missed anything of value. That actually leads into my favorite part of the game: the world exploration is pretty satisfying, being able to explore the whole of the Hogwarts shown in the first two movies. Full Review »

The game is very poorly made with many of the fights feeling broken. The troll battles were atrocious with the games mechanics failing to work properly. I also ran into issues with the rooms glitching. There was also some odd stuff such as chocolate frogs not respawning after you die which would make boss battles even harder. Wasn’t sure if this was a design choice or a unnoticed error. Either way very dumb. Pretty much the only fun in this is exploring Hogwarts but the later games offer better exploration and the story isn’t told very well in this game Full Review »
