Disadvantages: The design is still not too good

My dear! This game is a superb one. The first ever game for Harry Potter series. In this game, it is really "according to the book" type. If you had read the book and you like the book, then you will like this game too. This game is Harry-centred. The game starts at the Hogwarts where you will have flashes of movie about things happened in Sorting. The character in there is good, though not like the actor...It's the original sketch of Harry and other character...none influenced by actor and actress.

In the game, you go along according to the book...and first you will have lessons to learn spells and all sorts. The spells are learned through movement of mouse...you got to be good with your control to get high marks. Noobs like me get better after several practices. And yes, from each lessons, you will earn mark...So, try to get more marks with good performances. Professors will give you different tasks to complete-DO YOUR BEST!

And of course, just like stated in books, you will play Quidditch, but first you need to have flying lessons where you(Harry) will triumph yourself with a twenty feet dive- erm...not actually a dive, just a broomstick chase with Draco Malfoy...and Professor McGonagall will recommend you into the Team. You will play in the tournament. Besides in the game, you can also play out of the game. There is another option for only Quidditch Cup.

You will be going into forests and caves to complete task for Hagrid and more. And the important and interesting is the secret passageway. There are many secret room, passages, chest and hings that you should recover. You shouldn't rush along your journey. Take your time. You won't lose anything for being slow. Always take a look around to find any peculiar things. In there will be some award like Chocolate Frog, Beans...

Finally is about meeting Voldemort. Same, you will start with Fluffy...with Hermione and Ron. You will sound the flute. To succeed, it is recommended to blew the flute continuously and randomly at each...and change after some time quickly. After a few rounds, the level will full and it will fell asleep. For Logic, it actually is like playing in a funfair to test your speed. And for chess, it is far more easy than in book, i promise. And meeting Voldemort, you will actually make use of the Mirror of Erised. There are two side of the mirror...one will reflect Voldemort's curse, the other not. You need to cast spells on the mirror and run around to hide from the curse while lurking Voldemort to cast spells that rebound from the mirror and finally towards himself again. After few attempts, you game is really near over...which it ends with some nice flash of Fred and George!

Summary: This is a game worth playing
