This is the first Lego game I have played - and it wont be my last!
I enjoyed playing this game - and even enjoyed going back and doing the free play to unlock all the characters.
At first I wasnt sure how the spell casting would work, as come on you just know there are going to be a lot of things to do with spells.
I needent have worried - that is all taken care of by "drawing" the shapes with the stylus on the screen - sometimes it was a bit glitchey for me and needed it to be precise like on the Alohamora spell, also found the response for the stunning spells to be a bit slow on the uptake as to what I wanted it to do - but think I may need to clean my screen more than anything else.
You can fire through the levels at some speed and it isnt very challenging or hard in the slightest, though that is probably why I liked it - no fear of dying and having to start from the begining again. As you go you collect coins, hats, red bricks and cards all of which help you unlock over 100 playable characters. You even get Moaning Myrtle =)
The only thing I didnt like was the save mode - you couldnt play part of a chapter and then save it as you always had to start again, so in the wee small hours when I played it one my son went to bed I had to make sure I had time to play through a whole chapter.
