An imperfect romp that manages to cover its flaws with charm and relentless action. [Oct 2010, p.84]

The comedic cutscenes toying with canon, the hundreds of hidden things to find, and the general sense of a great LEGO game paired with a great series really makes this game a standout.

A joyous and addictive action puzzler. [Sept 2010, p.102]

The concept of LEGO Games blends perfectly with the Harry Potter franchise. Possibly the best LEGO Game to date!

A great comeback for the Lego series with a great love for details and lots of comedy. But it's too easy for seasoned gamers and therefore targeted at a younger audience.

If you're a Harry Potter fan, a Lego fan, or just looking for a fun pick up and play game, do yourself a favor and check it out.

LEGO Harry Potter is a lighthearted, fun game that will keep you busy for quite some time.

The story material is handled wonderfully (though if you've never read the books or watched the movies, prepare to be lost), and the gameplay is a great mix of familiar devices and new elements. Although the inevitable follow-up to this title may take a darker turn, I look forward to experiencing it all the same.

LEGO Harry Potter is much deeper than it seems and presents a universe that feels tailored for the LEGO treatment. A few technical issues aside, LEGO Harry Potter is a game that is truly fun for all ages and above all, a game first and a license second.

Another piece perfectly fitting to a growing construction set of LEGO games. As this usual great fun doubles when you play it with a friend in coop multiplayer. [Aug 2010]

Harry's adventure into Lego land is exactly what you'd want it to be: charming, fun, and chock-full of secrets.

Lego Harry Potter is the next big franchise to be set up with the cute and funny Lego-style, which developer Traveller's Tales had in their previous games. If you don't mind the problems with the fixed camera-angles and the low difficulty of the game, you get a comic, comprehensive game that is absolutely suitable for kids and which offers co-op gameplay.

Quotation forthcoming.

LEGO Star Wars was an inspired experiment of a talented team. LEGO Harry Potter is a mediocre product of seasoned craftsmen, complete with old mistakes but not a single spark.

The format of these games gets more and more tired with each new franchise, too. [Sept 2010, p.104]
