In my opinion, Harry Potter is the best book series I have ever read in my whole life. The game I thought would be bad because that's how it usually is with games based on movies. But this is just terrific! Here's how I rated it:

Graphics 4.5/5

These graphics aren't so great, but are excellent for a GBC game. In a lot of games, It's just a bunch of people walking around. In this, you can see onther things like, stirring cauldrons, wand fights, and even throwing up slugs!

Sound 3/5

The sound in this game is pretty good. But, the music can occasianaly squeak. Somtimes an annoying jingle can also get stuck in your head.

Gameplay 5/5

The gameplay in this is excellent!! You can fly a car, fight with toasters, watch Dobby bang his head on walls, challenge Professor Flitwick, throw gnomes, visit Hagrid, go bowling, shop in Diagon Alley, catch pixies and many other things that make this game exciting.

Violence Rate 2/5

I myself don't like violence. I think it is a creul thing.But, I mainly made this section for worrying mothers. Don't worry! The only violence is killing the Basilisk near the end. Even that isn't that violent. The basilisk just falls down when it dies. NO BLOOD. When you fight other things, instead of dying, they just run away.

Replay Value 5/5

I have already beaten this game twice and I still play it very frequently. The nonstopping fun makes you want to play it 24/7! Even if you don't like Harry Potter, you will love this game!!

Buy It. Trust Me. This game is worth it!

This is an absolutely awesome game. It's way better than the first and you get all new stuff! You'll love every part of it! This should definetely be on your christmas list, it's on mine!

i saw this game on sale for seven dollars at a local going-out-of-business sale recently, and as a closet harry potter fanatic, i thought i'd pick it up and be mildly amused for an hour or two. little did i know i'd still be playing this underrated gem months later.

i was surprised at the depth, humour and charm this game offers. lets face it, most licensed games are utterly stinky, but EA has really outdone themselves here. "harry potter" is an engaging, challenging RPG simple enough for younger gamers and witty enough for older ones as well.

I got Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets in my stocking for Christmas this year. It was my first gameboy game, and I was very impressed with it. Gameboy has progressed a long ways since I had played last (maybe 10 years ago). The colors were vivid and bright, the detail wonderful! I had to laugh out loud - its so detailed that you can see tiny slugs coming out of Ron's mouth when his wand backfires! I must admit, when I received Pokemon yellow next, I was a little disappointed with the colors/detail/etc after playing Harry Potter for a week or so.

The game follows the story line exactly - from living at the Dursley's, buying books at Diagon Alley, to attending Headless Nick's deathday party at Hogwarts. And I found very helpful that the game provided "how to's" when playing. For example, you degnome the Weasley's garden, the game gives you quick instructions on how to play before you do it (very helpful - it doesn't leave you scrambling for an instruction book). There are also a bonus 8 mini games you can play whenever you wish. I would say the game is great for about anyone - a young child (not violent, not too hard and easy to catch on to) or someone like myself (a college student procrastinating on papers to do). I played the game in 15 hours (logs your time) and found it very enjoyable and entertaining. I would highly recommend it.

I'm a Harry Potter fan and this game rules with the new challenges. It has mini-games and also new of GBC, QUIDDITCH. Buy this game... It's a total thriller!

Got this game with christmas money. I'd read a few reviews and thought this would be a good game to get for my GBC. I was wrong. I've beat it about 10 times now and it's gotten old pretty fast. So if you want to play this game, rent it, DO NOT BUY IT. But I would recommend any Zelda games.

Harry Potter is back in a great new adventure. When I bought this game it was so mutch fun that I did not want to stop. The game is so cool but sometimes it is very hard like at the giant spider aragog. You get to fly to Hogwarts batle your enemy's earn new spll's and be Harry Potter! I have so mutch fun. If you are a Harry Potter fan you should buy it and it is not vilent.

The game is really better then GBA's version since i have both of them . The graphics for chamber of serets are very good. The way you denome the garden is great and it also gives you little tips that help you alot. Its not like the first one where you get all these hard and fustrating quests, its much better. The duel with malfoy is great. And the quests you do are much better then the first game. It is also a bit longer then the first one so you won't finish in a day unless you are a fan and play all day and night. The quests are hard but there not impossible. ALL HP FANS SHOULD GET THIS GAME BECAUSE IT IS VERY EXCITING AND REALSTIC ALMOST.

This game was not exactly what I expected! When I first opened it, and started to play it, it was not so good. It had bad graphics and it seemed impossible to beat a single level! Don't spend your money!

I would firstly like to begin by stating I HAVE NOT PICKED UP MY CAME BOY IN 8 YEARS UNTIL A WEEK AGO. This was my first time playing any form of hand-held game in about 8 years and I have to say I am impressed with what they had back then. The graphics are good, the story is based on the book more than the movie (which is a good thing). It might get a little bit tedious but they have shortcuts in the castle so it's not that bad. Anyway I might as well keep this short since almost no one ever reads long reviews. I do like when people put pros and cons in though so it's easier to just skip everything, so;

Pros:
Good graphics for a Gameboy Color game,
Good story-line,
Very fun for kids and adults,
Not too hard but not too easy,
Good side-missions,
Easy to figure out how to play,
After you beat it you can play again with all the levels you gained and cards you collected,
Witches & Wizards cards to collect,
Not too long but not too short.

Cons:
A little obsolete,
A bit tedious,
NOT ENOUGH QUIDDITCH,
Too much speech (wastes time),
You don't keep the items after you beat the game.
