to these annoying Harry Potter puns. Just hit the jump to read about a really fun, totally overlooked game!

Story:

The videogame version of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets sticks pretty closely to the plot of the book and movie, but adds a few extra things to give the player some more stuff to do outside of the main story.

In the game, you play as Harry Potter, the famous boy wizard who is just starting his second year at wizarding school Hogwarts. In a nice touch, the tutorial of the game takes place at the Burrow (home of Harry’s best friend Ron Weasley), and lets the player partake in a fun scene that was only featured in the original book version of Chamber of Secrets, and not includedin the movie (gnome tossing!).

Once the tutorial is done, the story follows the movie and book almost exactly. Harry goes back to school, gets wrapped up in a mystery involving students being petrified, eventually learns all the unfolding horrors are connected to him, discovers the titular Chamber of Secrets, and finally puts and end to a younger, diary-created version of his arch-nemesis Lord Voldemort (whew!).

If you like Harry Potter, Chamber of Secrets meticulously recreates many of the book and movie’s set pieces and truly offers a fantastic experience around Hogwarts (and its surrounding areas) that even non-fans of the series can appreciate.

Gameplay:

The solid gameplay of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets is what helps it stand out from the rest of the games in the Harry Potter
