Great game to share. Inspires young readers!
Regardless, the sound effects are spot on, and the voice acting is really nice. The ambient music adds suspense and levity when necessary. However, there are a few glitches in the game. Harry jumps when close to a ledge; sometimes he jumps when not intended. The camera is difficult to control when it is behind Harry and his back is toward a corner, which makes fighting and jumping long distances even more difficult than it should be. Harry never puts his wand away during gameplay. Yet, during the cutscenes he usually doesn't have his wand in hand. Some of the fight scenes begin without much introduction. For example, before Harry leaves the library a battle between a Slitheran and Harry starts. There is no intro to this battle. ???
In any case, the beautiful graphics, music, and colorful characters have inspired my kids to read the Harry Potter books with me. If a video game can inspire children to read, then it is well worth the money!
