If you have nothing else to play and want a simple open world game set in and around Hogwarts, it's perfectly servicable as long as you pirate it. Don't expect to be blown away by it though.

I assumed that after literally nobody or any media outlets have talked about it since release. Telltale sign of bang on average game. Probably great for potter fans and boring for those who don’t care or haven’t seen the films/read the books.

I would - and I hate my saying this - rather recommend Avatar then. Yeah it's a Ubisoft game. I know. Yeah, it needs a beefier machine to actually look really pretty.

But oh my fucking hell is it pretty when cranked up. And it helps the generic open world gameplay a lot to be this awesome looking. Fun to just wander around and take in the scenery, even when you leave the jungle areas and go to the plains and see the wind-swept grass and all.
