Lego Harry Potter: Years 1-4 (2010 Video Game)
4/10
« It all ends here »
5 July 2013
Enough!

After the disastrous last two adult games of the Potter saga, I had to face now the Lego adaptations.

If the production is really excellent (music & design), I didn't have more fun and finally gave up after Year 2 (Chamber of secrets).

As I wrote before about Lego Star Wars, Lego Indy, still applies here: the games are too long and above all, too repetitive. There's only 1 way to play and if you can't figure the logical steps, you can't progress. At the beginning, it's okay but when you know that the end of each year is 20 levels ahead, with maybe too much cut scene, you get tired. On top of that, you only meet mumbling characters: sure it's easy to have an international release but I'm not that dumb! Next, the saving process is awful, as you have to finish a part to save and can't leave after a level!

In conclusion, this lack of fun was too painful and leads me to let down the 5-7 Years game as well. I don't even try to install it and for now, I know that I won't never play again a Lego game, even if the graphics, music and universe are really interesting! Bye bye !
