As one of the many video game adaptations of the Harry Potter series, this adventure game for the GBA sticks fairly closely to the plot of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's/Sorcerer's Stone as Harry attends his first year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Despite the large number of adaptations out there, at the start of 2015 this was only the first Harry Potter game to receive a movie on TASVideos.

Rather than replay the events of The Sorcerer's Stone, the authors instead dabble in the dark arts of barrel-amplified Flipendo magic to end the game much earlier than intended.
