Advantages: Exciting and interesting gameplay

Disadvantages: A little too easy in places for hardcore fans!

Being a HUGE Harry Potter fan, I simply had to buy the Scene It DVD game. Featuring hundreds of clips from the Harry Potter movies and thousands of questions about the series, it was my idea of board game heaven - and I wasn't disappointed.

The thing I love most about this game is the amount of variation where gameplay is concerned. There are so many different types of questions - video clips and question cards as expected - but also 'guess the character by their voice' and 'make a character's name from the shuffling letters' to name but a few.

My only criticism of the game would be that on a number of occasions the game will play a long video clip from one of the Harry Potter movies and then ask a question irrelevant to it.
Also in my opinion, the questions asked in order to win the game at the end are a little too simple - or maybe I just know too much!

I would say this game is an essential for all Harry Potter fans - non-Harry Potter fans can also have a go but may not be able to answer many of the more advanced questions!

I'm really pleased with Harry Potter Scene It - now I've just got to wait for the 3rd edition!

Summary: Great family fun
