3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

I'd say if you've ever wondered what it be like to just wander about the castle, it's well worth it. It's cheaper than going to say universal studios or the Warner Brothers lot in London...

But there's actually very little gameplay in the castle around areas you recognize from the books or movies. It doesn't take long until you're throwing into a very generic game with a thin coat of Harry Potter paint applied. There's a lot of samey quests and combat doesn't really evolve ever.

Thanks, this game seems very skipable. I keep reading lukewarm reviews of it.
