Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone

PS1

Very atmospheric game despite origami-like graphics (which I have no problem with). The music is really great, perhaps the factor most contributing to the atmosphere, but the famous Williams film score is absent. The sound effects are memorable and effective too.

The controls feel fluid until you need versatility, then you might find yourself late to a few classes! And dead at times...

I can play the game for hours on end, I love it. I prefer it to the other games in the series because of its simplicity, its difficulty, and that creepy atmosphere.

The game is not really incredible or try to make an other story or something like that. But i found the game good with the story that they tell in a book like an audio with a book open and with the story of the movie. I become nostalgic and i love it just for that. That was pretty good and i love the quidditch games even if it have a classic gameplay. Nice to feel Harry Potter vibes with that game.

I have played this game and i must say that i am amazed how close it is to the book. for those who havent read the books but are fans of the first movie i would suggest that you read the book first as there are some tasks in the game that where not in the movie. the potions game on the way to the stone is a perfect example. even though i love the game i give it a 8 as i have never been able to complete it straight to the end with out using the lvl cheat to get past fluffy but i still recommend it to anyone who is interested in a game that challenges the mind while entertaining the senses.

I finished the seven books in a row and felt orphan of this marvelous wizarding world. As I waited for the next last two movies to watch them all (so far I have seen only the 1,2 and 4), I decided to play the video game with the kid.

We found this first opus great because the game has amazing graphics: as someone else said, it is like a virtual visit of Hoggwarts. In addition, the gameplay is easy and it is made for kids: the level asks for quickness and a bit of reflexion.

On the other side, the game has major flaws as well: first, I don't think it uses the John Williams' theme and it is a pity. And above all, some levels are impossible to finish: the quidditch games, the troll chase and for sure, the fight against Voldemort!

In conclusion, a good game but it needs the six other to be perfect!

This game, where you control Harry Potter, is set at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. I liked it a lot because it is like you are actually taking a tour of Hogwarts. It was also fun because there are so many secret passages with surprises that it makes the game always a challenge. Finally, I liked it because it's not terribly easy, especially when you're in the Quidditch game, and that also makes it very interesting and fun to play.
