Lego Harry Potter - Years 1 - 4 - [PC] (Video Game)

Customer Review

I "Lego Harry Potter years 1 - 4" get for my birthday a few months ago, for the PC. I knew the game already, had played there together with a friend on your Xbox 360 and we were really excited. The game is a mix of the books and films are. In my opinion, you should at least know the movies, have optimally even read the books, otherwise some information may remain players incomprehensible, since there is no speech acts in the game. Nevertheless Lego manages to convey without words much wit and charm, so the fun never comes up short. Some puzzles can I find too difficult for children, even I as 20 years had now and then really think.

On the PC, however, the mood was marred by some bugs that had clearly nothing to do with my PC, but a bug of the game were.
At the end of the 1st level of the 2nd year, "The Burrow", at the point where the level achievements are enumerated, crashed the game. So I started it again and realized that the 1st level of the 2nd year was not "made it" recognized and I had to start from scratch. When I was done with the level this time, it crashed at the same spot. And again. And again. And again.
It was really annoying as I always had this level restart and never was it as completed. Then I pressed in the moment when usually crashed the game, "Ctrl" + "Alt" + "Del" and the game is minimized.
When I opened it again, the credits of the levels now ran through and finally I was finally able to play on.
The second major bug was then, as with many others, as I could read on different sides, on the 6th Level of the 3rd year, "The Dark Tower". First I had the problem that I could not destroy the iceberg with the ice pick. Sometimes it worked, sometimes it did not work.
After that the main problem of the level was, if not the whole game. At the point where you have two anzaubern Feuerspeier, crashed the game together with your computer. The image remained, but the music went on and even "Ctrl" + "Alt" + "Del" could not fix it.
The computer had to be switched off and restarted.
After also this happened umpteen times, I installed the game on the laptop my sister because she has a better, and started the game from the beginning.
But even with her plunged the entire PC at the site from the fire spouts. After some research, we found a solution that actually works and I want to write them down here too for anyone with the same problem:

1 activation and the 2nd player at the well placement, so that one does not follow.
2. The 1st player to now the flowers jumping high to the platform where the fire spouts.
3. The Dementor do, build the right Feuerspeier.
4. Set up close to the edge of the platform, so you can just barely see the left Feuerspeier.
5. anzaubern the left Feuerspeier and jump immediately from the platform towards fountain. This is very important because you can not see how the spell hits the fire spouts.
6. If the left Feuerspeier is no more noise, jump back up onto the platform.
7. Place yourself back as close as possible to the edge. The right Feuerspeier you can not see.
8. Wild spells toward the fire Speier, be ready to jump when you hear that the fire Speier was hit, jump back on immediately from the platform.
All this perhaps does not work the first time, but if you get the timing right found works really.

After the path is clear and you can finally play the level over!

Meanwhile, I'm through with the game, I managed even 100%.
If you do not have bugs, or find ways to work around the bugs, the game is really a lot of fun and very funny. Nevertheless, I think that such a flawed game not on the market should not have come. But in the new "Lego Harry Potter the years 5 - 7", the developers will probably have more time left.
