Played at leisure, though, this remains a bewitching adventure, and one that true Harry-maniacs will want to return to again and again.

Looks great and, while it can be a bit easy, the new sneaking skills, Quidditch and card collecting make Hogwarts a fun place to be. [GamesMaster]

While not as great as the console version, relatively speaking, Chamber of Secrets will certainly keep you interested - for a spell.

It tells a good story, and there's a lot to do within the confines of the Harry Potter universe. If you don't really care for the characters, you'll probably find the gameplay repetitive and dull, but then you'd have no reason to play the game anyway.
