Is there a soul alive who hasn’t keyed in to the empire of books, films, and merchandise that J.K. Rowling has created? The story of the franchise revolves around Harry, a student from the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Taking the form of a role-playing game, this GBC installment allows you to play the role of Harry, talking with hundreds of characters from the novels. There are tons of puzzles to solve and clues to find throughout the journey, and 101 Wizard Cards to collect as well. What’s most striking about the game is its similarity to the books, getting all of the plot details and character eccentricities perfect. The missions, themselves, are actually based on lessons that Harry has learned at the Hogwarts School. The graphics and backgrounds are surprisingly advanced, the gameplay totally enthralling, the puzzles truly puzzling, and the story well, you know the story.
