Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions

September 3, 2024 - Reading time: ~1 minute - Category: game library project

Meh. When this game was announced as releasing on PS Plus as a free monthly game, I was excited because Rocket League released the same way back in 2015. Despite the limited marketing and hype around this game I was still interested in trying it out.

It's... fine. The rules are adapted to fit a video game format. It looks terrible, though, and there are too many mechanics to keep track of. Following the ball is a little tough. Playing as a Seeker is unsatisfying. The online multiplayer being 3v3 with bots filling in the other roles is an odd choice, why not just make it 5v5?

There's a career mode here, but I didn't try it. I completed the tutorial and played a few matches with my brother. We had an okay time, but when we were done we both said "let's just play Rocket League instead", and I think that's where most people are going to settle at once the Harry Potter charm wears off.

Verdict: Uninstall

About

My name's Mike, and this is the Lore Depository - my spot online where I can write out my thoughts on games, books, tech, history, and anything else I find interesting. 

My biggest project is my Game Library Project. I have a ton of games collected throughout the years, and have barely played any of them. Check out the linked post to learn more about the project, and click here to be taken to the category page where you can see all my posts for the project.

Other content comes mainly in 3 forms:
Reviews, where I post longer-form writeups
Thoughts, short & quick first impressions posts
Guides, detailed how-tos and walkthroughs
