"This is the game to show your doubting friends as I don't believe a game of this depth or breadth presently exists on the App Store, and certainly not one with the care and attention that the Warner Bros. team have expended on it."(TouchArcade.com)
"Okay, so if you're buying only one game this week, which one should it be? No contest: Lego Harry Potter. It's that good, even if you're not a fan of boy wizards or building blocks."(CNET.com)

Customer Reviews
$5?
I paid $50 for this same game on my PS3. I thought both are great games. This game is perfect for $5 and well worth $15. This is a full consol game and I look forward to many more titles such as this in the future.
PS: Where is Star Wars Lego?
Fantastic game... a few bugs
This game is a fantastic deal. It's worked perfectly for almost the entire time I've played it and believe me, I've spent hours and hours playing this game. Even once you've completed the final scene, you need to replay previous scenes to collect objects with the spells you've learned (and characters you've collected) along the way. Most scenes are pretty straight forward but there are a handful that are extremely challenging.
It has crashed once and had a few other annoying bugs. It would be helpful if the developer gave us a way to report bugs but there seems to be no way to contact them.
The most frustrating one I've come across is in year 2, in the "Chamber of Secrets" section, in the 4th scene with the time turner.
In the upper left section, after using the time turner which fills part of the room up with green liquid I can jump on the floating piece **TO** the witches had but I cannot jump **BACK**. The "jump" arrows only appear when I'm going, not when I want to come back. There is NO WAY to leave this part of the chamber therefore I cannot collect the last hat.
Years 5-7
They should totally update for years 5-7!!
