5 out of 5 stars Awesome Package   January 28, 2008
Brie (USA)
I can't remember the exact price I got it for, but it was around half of the price on Amazon during some sale. A great value anyways at about 10$ a game or so. I have yet to play through all of the chamber of secrets or the prisoner of alaz. but the first one is awesome and I'm sure the rest will be as well. Quidditch is probably the best of out this package with tons of matches to play and kept me addicted to it for hours when I was bored out of my mind. Well worth the price.

The World of Harry Potter
Well worth the money. The individual CD's easily cost as much as this whole set. I really enjoy HPCOS the most but my 7 year old is quite the wiz (no pun intended) at Quidditch.



5 out of 5 stars The best computer games I ever played   October 28, 2007

I am not lying when I say these are some of the most fun games I have ever played. Definitely the best computer games ever. I love Harry Potter but (even I) was thinking that maybe all these games were too much. TOTALLY WRONG!

I was so friggen addicted! It was crazy! I finished all the games in a few days because I seriously could not rip myself away from the computer. And you won't believe this but even my sister (who doesn't like Harry Potter, computers and probably not even any sort of fun) got addicted too and she loves Harry Potter now! Now we're all "Harry Potter this..." and "Harry Potter that..." It was hilarious how much fun we had!

I really recommend getting these games and what do you have to loose when they are so cheap? PLUS where else do you get to collect cauldron cakes, fly on the back of a hippogriff (which I SO could not win the 5th round without help!!! AH!), and duel with Lord Voldemort?

I love these games! :)

I recently purchased this pack. The graphics in the game are exceptional, right down to the images of the characters in each of the games. There are hidden treasures everywhere in the castle, particularly in treasure chests, suits of arms, vases or just about anything laying about in the corridors. The treasures are usually in the form of Bertie Bott Beans, Pumpkin Pasties, Chocolate Frogs, things that you can use to later redeem items from Fred and George's Magic Shop.

Though it is quite fun to cast spells, retrieve items and perform various other forms of magic, I was extremely displeased when after several tries, I could not manage to exceed in any of the first challenges in any of the games. One particular problem in the challenges was to jump from one pillar to another. As the game progressed, it became increasingly harder to jump without falling into, what I would assume to be called "The Pit of Dispair", as any time that one falls into this pit, they must again meet challenges that they have already exceeded at.

This game really put a number on my computer mouse and on my wrists. These games would be best suited for a child or adult who is suffering from extreme boredom AND someone who has a great amount of time on their hands.




4 out of 5 stars A fun game!   October 1, 2007
I am seven years old and I have just started playing the first game of The World of Harry Potter and the game was a little bit easy to learn but very fun !
