The Harry Potter Game
The success of the Harry Potter books and films has been phenomenal. They are popular with children of all ages and adults too. The franchise is said to be worth a cool $4 billion!
The wait between each book and film is agony for the fans and so a Harry Potter game fills the gap. There are board games, card games, action figures based on the characters and electronic games to keep them entertained.
There is also a Wizard Chess Set, based on the chess game played by Harry, Ron and Hermione in the first of the series.
The video games have proved very popular. These are tied in to the movie versions and books and feature the regular characters and the spells, creatures and objects associated with the particular story.
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, the fifth in the series, can be played on PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and the new Nintendo Wii system.
The first video game to be released was Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, (Sorcerer's Stone in the US). This was a single player game and some reviews criticized it for not being challenging enough for older children.
This was followed by Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, another game for the single player. The next Harry Potter game was Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, again for the single player.
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire followed and reviewers praised it for having superior graphics to the preceding games. This time, the game could be played by single and by multi players. It was back to single player again for Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.
Some of the most exciting scenes in the stories come from the playing of the Wizard game, Quidditch. Harry Potter is an extremely good flyer but almost meets a sticky end sometimes.
It is a dangerous sport and requires a great deal of skill. The Harry Potter game, Harry Potter: Quidditch World Cup Series is for single and for multi players. There is a section for players to practice different moves of the sport before going on to try out those moves in competition.
Players can participate in international, World Cup matches and Hogwarts School internal matches between Houses, choosing from Gryffindor, Slytherin, Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw.
