This is probably the least nostalgic Lego game for me, so it didn't really age well. It was fine, but the nature of Harry Potter makes for the worst Lego games in my opinion. It's definitely the least fun. The collectibles sucked too. I achieved 100% without using a guide at all, which I do not recommend. Overall, this feels like the base Lego game, if that makes sense.
This game is NOT bad.
Is it Good? Uhh, maybe?
I had a lot of fun playing this game for probably 20 hours. The story is fine, the combat is fine, the traversal is fun, and the dialogue and cutscenes are seriously great. Those combine to make a solidly fun story game.
BUT
If you play this game beyond the story, be prepared to experience the soul-crushing fun-sucking "game" that is finding collectibles and replaying missions over 50 times. (I'm not joking.)
I tried to platinum this game. You can tell by the fact that I put 45 hours into this game that I gave it a good effort to complete everything I could. Honestly, if I had quit 20 hours in when the story was finished, I would have a much better outlook on this game. But holy crap, is the "postgame" the most boring, repetitive, and unrewarding thing I've played in probably 10 years.
So, as I said, the game isn't bad. But please, just play through the story and uninstall it. And only buy it if it's less than $30, because that's about what the story game should have been sold for.

I chose to play this because I wanted to see what kind of story games are on Apple Arcade. It started out perfectly fine but holy crap does it just get soo boring. The dialogue is just uninteresting and drawn out, and the entire game is just dialogue, so that sucks. The story is not compelling at all and probably at least 50% of the choices are the same thing. For example, you can choose to say "What happened?" or "Are you okay?", and both those choices mean the exact same thing. It really made me angry for the entire second half of this game and I really had to slog through it.
