This game is a lot of fun for all ages. It has many layers that can be accessed, or left alone by the younger player. It would have been nice to have more Wii motion aspects to it.

Known glitches in the game

I have had this product since it came out and it has known glitches. I've spent hours playing and replaying trying to get past these problems. I haven't been able to get past 98.8% because I am locked out of the Gryffindor common room. Because of all the bugs and glitches it's been a painful and frustrating experience playing this game. Because of this I will no longer play or purchase the Lego Harry Potter Years 5-7 which also has known glitches. If you buy this game, keep your receipt.

Game is too glitchy, fun- but flawed

I bought this game because I love the Harry Potter books and recently the movies. I like to explore the game but it is crazy! If you distroy the wrong thing or go into a wrong place it will glitch. Sometimes freezing (and the tv sqeals loudly giving me a heart attack) and sometimes it just won't let you get past a level to the point of having to completely restart the game. But what I don't understand is they want you to earn "house crests" by going further into levels than normal game play- then you are punished! I was only able to complete 1 house crest in 3 levels because I was too afraid of the glitches to explore more. Very disappointed in the flaws of the game but I will complete the last level with hopefully no more problems.

Must be harry potter fan to truly enjoy this game. I've played the lego star wars games and they were great. Lots of action and some decent puzzles. This game is more about puzzles and less action. My wife seems to enjoy it but it couldn't keep my attention.

This is a very cute and fun game. I'd give it five stars except for the fact that it has a lot of bugs. We have played this game twice through and never been able to complete it entirely. Gameplay-ending glitches have cut off access to crucial areas both times. In addition, the game freezes rather frequently and has to be reset. Certainly worth the asking price at this point, though.
