Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls join me as we journey into the ever awesome land of Harry Potter. So of course as you can already tell this will be a review of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (why does it has to be spelled so weird) but I would like to state first of all this game reminds me of Legend Of Zelda Wind Waker and/or Twilight Princess (more specifically the GameCube version). But ya on to the review.

The Graphics......... ya I honestly don't really know what to say about the graphics (this is a game I don't grow up playing so its kind of hard to say if 'back in the old days it looked great or not) but it does look 'ok' I guess you can tell that the game was made on the geometric achievement that is the GameCube and that's not a bad thing but I think that they could have done a bit better on the character designs. But the areas are kind of well done with how they are designed I find if fun just to run around in the building looking at all the place that can go and see how the areas look and well they are done really well and they look like Hogwarts from the movies so that's always plus in my book. This might be a bit of a nitpick but I felt like the spells should have a bit more of a bigger explosion (I guess you could say explosion) when ever it hit something because they felt a bit underwhelming to me but once again that just might be a nitpick. So the characters don't look perfect the areas are big and well designed and stay true to the movies and I think that if they could do that (which they did) then I think that they at least deserve a 6 out of 10 for the Graphics and that is the score that they will be getting (well at least for my review).

Can you hear that its Sound (corny joke to introduce the next part, check) honestly I can not remember one tune form the sound track of this game and it might fall under the category of it takes some music from the series that it is based off of and some new music that's kind of forget full and puts in all into one music track (great example of a game that I recently reviewed like this Lego Star Wars, shameless way to get people to check out another review, check) I don't personally like the Harry Potter soundtrack in general with the exception of the main theme song for harry potter, BUT there is one piece of music that does stick out from this specific sound track and its the song that plays during the trailer to this game (the one with like the opera singers, I don't know if there is more then one trailer for the game so its better to explain what song it is just in case) and to my knowledge that is the only time they ever use the song which kind of sucks 'cuz the piece is JUST EPICLY AWESOME!!!!!! Well I don't really talk about voice acting that much as I can get down with even some really bad voice acting but I found that the vice acting was well done, a bit on the flat side but rather then that it was pretty good which is great because movie adaptations of games aren't in general all that good in........ all areas (which if you couldn't already tell by the overall score this game, Prisoner of Ask-a-bat doesn't fall under that category). After taking the bit below average voice acting and the music track that I find forgettable id end up giving the Sound a 5 out of 10, its not the best but I can see that some people would like the games music.

The Addictiveness of Prisoner of as-of-bad is also not really that good its not bad but there really isn't anything that particularly noteworthy of repeatability rather then just the joy of flying around the castle of Hogwarts but rather then that I don't really have any reason to replay the game sure the combat can feel rewarding but I just don't see any real reason why I would go back and replay the game a again. But if there would be some reasons why I would replay the game (if I was every really in to this thing) it would be because there are collectables that you can get in game and different types of spells and characters and creature bios and stuff like that, but ill get into that stuff a bit more when I talk about the depth of prisoner of Abracadabra but that is some stuff that I know people lie to unlock so that for most people would be a reason to replay the game to unlock everything and to read about the characters and stuff like that but i's not really into that stuff sadly (insert sad puppy face here). After all that I can only sadly gave (in my own personal opinion, I'm hoping your would be different) this game a score of 5 out of 10 for the Addictiveness of it.

And now the Story, ok so ill say right now out of all the Harry Potter books my favorite book is the Order of the Phoenix. So of course that means that the prisoner of aspen is not my favorite story but its up there in the harry potter books ranking. But anyway I will not talk at all about the story as it is cannon with the story from the book/movie of the same name, and of course this is written by a really good book writer (J. K. Rowling) so I really don't like the story I would give it a 10 out of 10 but I didn't really like how the game was set up as a Metroid/ Zelda (look we went a full 360 back to the opening) game as in as you progress you learn more about the story (isn't everything that has a story set up that way?) it works but I just felt like it didn't really work with the type of story that the prisoner of As-a-can-band-can is (A.K.A a kind of sorta long narrative) but I think they did a good job of putting it all into a exploration game. And for doing a great job of that I'm glad to say that the Story (that I talked none about) gets a great 9 out of 10.

How deep is the deep of the Depth? Well its time to find out. so like I said before there are things that people can find enjoyable like the collect-a-thon aspect and what I mean is that in game you can find different types of things inside some chests things like tokens, pieces of paper, every flavored jelly beans, stuff like that when you collect it they unlock different type of character and monster bios that you can read and find more insight to the big land of Harry Potter which like I said before a lot of people might fine that to be fun so there is some replayability and depth in the story but I think the thing that is really deep is the amount of places you can explore in the castle from rooms hidden behind a burnable flag to secret doors that look (and are) bookshelf's that only specific characters can, this game has it all which is awesome while I'm not a collector type person I am someone who likes to complete a map and unlock all the rooms that I can possibly unlock (that kind of sounds like what I like to do in a specific game with a elf kid and a princess in it). So if you are someone who likes to collect jelly beans that might possibly taste like your old 6 grade sweaty gym socks or just want to kick at every wall until one opens up and you find the boss key or even if you like to do both, then there are hours of exploration and fun around each and every corner so for that ill give the Depth of prisoner of apple-man a 7 out of 10.

How bout that Difficulty is this game as hard as living Harrys life before he became wizard or is it as hard as real life is when your a baby well............ its kind of a even type of hard is not super difficult but its a lot not super easy. As far as I'm aware of there's no healing spells so you have to find stuff inside bookshelf's and stuff like to heal you or to take a drink of healing potions (and no there not red, there blue) the bosses arnt to hard either (I don't even think there was a final boss oh and talking about the ending of the game, the game just kind of sorta ends you'd have to play it to know what I mean) most can be beaten easily and I'm glad there wasn't a big huge HEY HIT ME HERE ON MY WEAKSPOT YA THAT HUGE RED THINGY HIT IT!!!!! type of thing on the bosses. There's no super difficult part of the game with cheap deaths or anything like that which is always a good think and if the game does get to hard for you then you can always explore around and collect stuff if you collect enjoy badges or papers then one of the characters heal gets increased which is always awesome. There's nothing really to say about the difficulty its not Dark Souls hard and its not (insert easy game here) easy which is nice which means I also must give it a nice score like 5 out of 10, ya that is a nice score.

Ya I might have really bashed this game and then rubbed it up and then bashed it a bit more buuuuuuuuuut I had a lot of fun on my first play through of this game and that is all I can ask for no words can describe how annoying it is to paly again and get irritated at it and then beat it and then replay it sure you might have fun but it just doesn't feel the same. Luckily prisoner of a-flat-land doesn't fall flat on its face nor did it irritate me on my fist play through or any of the times I replayed it and I'm glad that I did play it and it would be worth at least a weekend of your time to sit down and play it you just never know you might like it so much you might even end up replaying it, or replaying Wind Waker which ever one strikes your fancy the most.
