''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. 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. Some characters have different abilities, based on the skills of their book counterparts. For instance, Harry is a very good broomstick rider and he is able to perform tricks and shoot jinxes when he is on a broom, Hermione is the best character at casting spells, and Ron can use Scabbers to crawl into otherwise unreachable areas. The game will also employ the two player split-screen technique and online support for PS3 and Xbox 360 that was introduced in Lego Indiana Jones 2. | ''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''.
