1 DVDHarry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, known as Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone in the United States, is the name of five distinct video games. The first four versions were released in 2001 by Electronic Arts for the PC, Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance, and the PlayStation. The PC version was released for the Mac by Aspyr in 2002. Another version, for Nintendo GameCube, PlayStation 2, and Xbox, was released in 2003. Although very different games, they do have some common features, such as the Flipendo jinx, even though it is not found in the books or movies. The game is based on J. K. Rowling's Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, the first novel in the Harry Potter series. Most reviews for the games were rather negative due to the simple game play making them only suitable for a younger audience, with the exception of the PlayStation 2 version, which is slightly more challenging. Some people disagree with this assessment of simplicity in the gameplay.
Harry Potter, an orphaned eleven-year-old boy living with his uncaring, neglectful and magic fearing aunt and uncle, discovers that he is a wizard and leaves to attend Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Over the course of the year, he learns the spells that will help him defeat the most evil dark wizard in the world, Lord Voldemort.
