''Lego Harry Potter''{{'}}s gameplay is similar to that of most previous Lego games, with an emphasis on collecting and exploring, rather than the emphasis on combat used in ''[[Lego Indiana Jones 2: The Adventure Continues]]'' and ''[[Lego Batman: The Videogame]]''. Casting spells is an integral part of the gameplay; few are available from the start, but more are unlocked as the player progresses. For example, the ''Wingardium Leviosa'' spell, which almost all characters can use, enables the player to lift and arrange Lego bricks, and the ''Immobulus'' spell can freeze other characters. Potion-making is another integral feature; potions can help the player complete levels or, if created incorrectly, have adverse side effects such as turning the player into a [[frog]].<ref name="GI"/>


Like the previous Lego games, there are a large number of characters  playable, up to 140. These include [[Harry Potter]], [[Ron Weasley]], [[Hermione Granger]], [[Draco Malfoy]], [[Albus Dumbledore]], [[Rubeus Hagrid]], [[Sirius Black]] and [[Remus Lupin]], as well as some unusual ones such as Fang, Dobby, Buckbeak and centaurs.<ref name="GI">{{cite journal|title=Traveller's Tales spills the beans on the boy wizard's latest adventure|last=Marchiafava|first=Jeff|date=December 2009|journal=[[Game Informer]]||issue=201|pages=pp. 60–61}}</ref> Some characters have different abilities, based on the skills of their book counterparts.

Lego Harry Potter: Years 1-4 is a video game in the Lego video game franchise, developed by Traveller's Tales and published by Warner Bros. The game is based on the Lego Harry Potter line and its storyline will cover the first four books of the Harry Potter series. Gameplay is similar to that of most previous Lego games, with an emphasis on collecting and exploring, rather than the emphasis on combat used in Lego Indiana Jones 2: The Adventure Continues and Lego Batman: The Videogame.

Emulation Information

Wii Remote Pointer Hiding

When the Wii Remote pointer is held perfectly still in Lego Harry Potter: Years 1-4, the game relocates it off screen. It is unknown why titles do this. With real Wii Remotes, there is usually enough movement to ensure this does not happen, but with emulated Wii Remotes, it is very easy to see. It has been reproduced on console and is not a bug in Dolphin.

Problems

There are no reported problems with this title.
