big fat disappointment

one thing no one's said about the game is how DARK it is. I know the GBA is inherently not very bright, but this game is like impossible to see without really bright light conditions. There is also no plot whatsoever, the point of the game seems to be to find challenge stars and potion ingredients. The 2 stars are for graphics, which are prety smooth, and the spell-learning (although the 1st spell, Flipendo, isn't even in the book or the movie). However, it's HARD. I'm not like a hardcore gamer, and i cannot fathom how people can say the Warioland 4 is easy, or this game. I think this game is really hard, and the dumb thing is, the stupid challenges do not in any way contribute to the already very-wobbly plot. To wrap up, this game is mostly "busywork," has no plot, has ok graphix, cool spells, IS REALLY, REALLY HARD TO SEE CUZ ITS SO DARK, and it really bites unless you are a diehard fan of all things HP.

Need help with the Snape ingredients

I do like this game except for the fact that I cant find all of the ingredients from Snape. I f you know where to find Dittany, Flobberworm mucus, wigentreebark,and Moly send a review telling me where I can find them. Besides that it is an awsome game. Buy it.

got to play!

The best thing is the game is based on the book. You go to classes and you are Harry Potter in his world. You get picked on by Snape, helped by Hagrid,play quidditch! You actually play quidditch!!! Some parts of the game can be frustating but you just keep trying and you'll get it. This game is a have to play for all Harry Potter fans!

Harry Potter?

This isn't what I wanted out of a HP game. The magic is pretty good, but the adventures are just OK. I'm not saying it's a bad game, it's just not HP. Graphics are cool, though! EA needs to make up on the next game for Xbox, PC, Gammecube, and GBA

fun but needs more challenge.

This game is real fun but it lacks the challenge part. My friends at school have this game for PC, Gameboy Color and Playstation. When they talk about the game they make it seem really hard. I mean Lord Voldemort is even easy to kill. So my point is if you want a really easy game buy this.

A day in the life of Harry Potter

This game is lots and lots of fun. But at first it seems far too difficult. It is very easy to fall into holes and get attacked by the flying things that you have to risk getting more hurt to destroy. Flying is hard, until you get the hang of it. On the other hand, on the whole it is too easy. I beat it in under a day. The graphics are awesome, and it is as true as it needs to be to the movie and the book. And, again, it is loads of fun. Recomended to anyone who owns a GBA, Harry Potter Fan or not.

Cool But Hard

I just bought this game today.In the begining,It was easy but,when you go against the knoms,they keep on killing you.I don't think they give you enough lives in the game.When you get hit,it seems like you lost two lives.And there are alot of berty bots every flavor layin around but,you allways seem to find them when you have full health.I don't think five lives are enough.This game is great but,just not enough lives.

awesome...fun...challenging,the BEST!!!

The game itself was fun. You play Quidditch, sneak around the school at night, battle monsters (i.e. mountain trolls), learn spells, collect cards from chocolate frogs, and tackle challenging puzzles, all while trying to earn (and keep) house points.

Some bad points were that the game was far too short. I beat in about 5 hours. Also, it was way too dark, especially while sneaking around at night. It was very hard to see what was going on. My last complaint is that it didn't allow very much flexibilty, and it always gave explicit instructions about what to do next.

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone is more than adequate

For an old guy with arthritis, this game moves slowly enough to not outrun my lack of manual dexterity. Harry best proceeds with deliberationa and a full search of the area of play. The traps are great although without warning Harry steps into something unexpected, frequently. Do not outrun your line of sight or you might fall off into a pit.
