About

In the PC versions, the game is played like a third-person action and puzzle game. The story follows a linear progression, separated into levels with a specific end goal. Spells are learned progressively via lesson levels, and unlock increasingly complex puzzles. There are also several levels in which Harry can fly on a broomstick and play Quidditch, this gameplay can also be independently accessed through the start menu.
