What am I about?

Ten years ago Harry Potter's parents died in a car crash. After the crash a strange (and big) man brought him to live with his aunt and uncle. This year he learned that his parents were murdered and that he is a wizard. After all this was dropped on his head he was offered a place at the top school of witchcraft and wizardry in Britain, Hogwarts. This game details his first year for the GB/GBC platforms. This year he must: Attend class (duh, this is a school,) learn about his past, deal with the strange mysteries of this school (including the one about something called the Sorcerer's Stone) and come to grips with his murderer, Lord Voldermort all without dying or losing too many house points.

From Author J.K. Rowling this game is packed with enough action to keep you entertained so grab your wand and your Nimbus 2000 and ho aboard the Hogwarts Express.

Graphics 8
Not as great as the GBA or above but still pretty good. Even though they aren't better overall than the GBA they seem very close. For these platforms however, it's pretty good.

Story 9

Takes very few liberties from the book and what's more, it has plenty of sidequests. In my opinion, the sidequests that take liberty from the book add flavor.

Sound 7
Could be better, could be worse. The sound is nice enough however background noise is very repetitive.

Depth 9
Wonderful depth, this takes what Rowling writes and runs with it. When it adds to the story it spices things up. An interesting thing to add is that Peeves the Poltergeist gets deleted from most Harry Potter games but in this one he sneaks back in and even steals something you need.

Addictiveness

I love Harry Potter and even if you don't it's a wonderful game. Full of many fantasy elements and even letting you head to Diagon Alley, it is sure to please.


HAPPY PLAYING!

Not a bad review, but in the future please go into more detail when you do your breakdown of each category.
