1/10
And the loser is … the player!

This is the worst game of HP so far.

Sure they tried to do something different: so bye-bye the platforms and now time for exploration and fights. Next, the graphics are much improved this time and look really much like a movie. In addition, they put some role playing cards with stills from the movie, which is great because you don't see much of this in the first three games.

But, unfortunately, the magic of HP ends here: What are the main three levels of the game? roofs of Hoggwarts (more for Batman), forbidden forest and the garden of herbology (more for Swampthing).

There, you keep stumbling against dull monsters (salamanders, big wasps, bottom on fire). They even appear on the key moments and that's a crap because you can't say anymore it's an adaptation! Your goal is to collect shields (I hate this chores list) and if you know that there are 10 shields located in each level, you don't know how many you have collected in each one and each time you got one, you start over! So this game becomes quickly an irritating maze!

The only moments of fun are the triwizard tournament and the fight against Voldemort but to play them, I had to download a completed saved game! Even then, you got those damned clock challenge (it is not Olympic games and I am not motivated for Gold, Silver, Bronze), the cinematics are one poor picture that is zoomed circularly to give some flow.

Well, a great disappointment! Ava kadreva !
