The PC version of Prisoner of Azkaban really challenges the limits of what you can play without adding a game controller. With a trac-ball, it really challenged my limits! The voices are exceptional, I believe the actual actor's voices at times; you can now skip the cut scenes if you want. There are no more glitches with characters getting stuck in walls or bushes, as there were in the first two games. The ability to roam all over Hogwarts looking for secrets is enhanced. No Quidditch, but you use the same skills to fly Buckbeak. Most fun is moving the little dragons and rabbits around - the rabbits are amazingly realistic and fun to watch. The imps now throw Wizard Crackers instead of munching on your character, as they did in the Chamber of Secrets game. Warning, buy all your Wizard cards before you get to the exams or you won't get another chance!Read full review
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban is a thrilling tale where you must learn new spells: Depulso!, Expecto Patronum!, for example, and - the Dementors are coming! You must fight them off and with your best friend, Hermione Granger, you must save Sirius from Azkaban! You spend a lot more time with your friends in this game, in contrast to Years 1 & 2 in which you generally play all of your challenges alone. You can even play parts of the game as Hermione or Ron. This game also saves your progress the second you fall, making it easier to complete a level without having to replay the entire thing. I must warn you there is no Percy in this one. However, there are a lot more things you have to collect to finsh the game. Once you get everything, including the Harry Potter card, then you get to go to the bean bounus room without a timer so you can get everything you can have (including some bounus cards). After that, you get a clip of them riding on the Hogwarts Express - then you have finshed the game: Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban! The feeling is thrilling for the players. The End.Read full review
This game has always been a personal favorite of mine, especially for the PC. The gameplay is fantastic and, for the first time, you are able to go back and attempt to finish all of your quests. This ability was not really available in the previous two games. Another function of the game is that you can play as characters other than Harry Potter. You can't really choose which character to play, but for the Carpe Retractum challenge, you can be Ron Weasley and for the Draconifors/Lapifors challenge, you can be Hermione Granger. Again, this function was not available previously and adds a bit of fun to the game. The graphics are wonderful and the plotline runs smoothly, if a little fast. But if you've ever played the HP computer games, you'll know that the storyline tends to run a little quickly. I really recommend this game to Harry Potter fans and gaming fans alike. There's something a little bit magical about this particular game!Read full review
The game is from 2004 and is brand new plus it works on Windows 10.
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: New
I enjoyed this one. I use a PC so the controls are always a little iffy but the only part I found hard to control was Hipogrif flying. As with the 2nd game you can cast and move simultaneously and this time you switch characters and play as Hermione or Ron as well.
