Platform GameBoy Advance SP
Gamer Candy G. Villanueva
Lifted from the plot of the same movie, this semi-RPG starts from the Leaky Cauldron Pub
where Harry stays for the night to begin battling book monsters and silly looking characters
in red caps. All these to get poor Scabbers a rat tonic.
The battle arenas of the game are as exciting as Uncle Vernon's drill business. Each
character is given a turn to cast a spell. While you deliberate between spells Flipendo,
Verdimilious or Incendio, your opponent will gladly wait for you. No hurry. Being an equally
gracious gamer, your character must wait while your opponent makes his move. Dodge or block
to defend your character? What a ridiculous idea! You can't do that.
The purpose of these annoying little battles is to earn points, potions and strength to get
you ahead in the game. You could simply avoid these little skirmishes if you're in a rush. But
really, who could resist chanting, "Flipendo Uno?"
