Gameplay
I first discovered this game when I was scrolling through Instagram one evening. It popped up as an ad and I was instantly interested due to the Harry Potter themes but I was surprised to find out it isn’t actually a Harry Potter game at all.
The ad consisted of showing characters that appear in the Harry Potter series like
- Sirius Black
- Bellatrix Lestrange
- Lord Voldemort
- Arthur Weasley
However, I noticed that they called Arthur ‘Aecher Weasley’ and thought that was slightly odd for a game on the biggest franchise in history.
When I started playing the game, I quickly realized that this isn’t a Harry Potter game at all, but a very cheap rip-off. A lot of the comments on their Instagram show angry players calling them out for stealing Harry Potter characters for their dull game. In fact, I’m not entirely sure how they haven’t been sued yet but I’m sure it’s coming…
The aim of the game is to collect your characters and fight against the dark lord. I found the enemies really easy to kill, so it wasn’t exactly hard to play!
Graphics
The graphics are… interesting. And obviously, by interesting I mean bad. The characters are so obviously based on the Harry Potter characters, I really don’t understand how they haven’t been sued yet.
A few examples:
- Robin Rogge is Hagrid
- Dawn French is the Fat Lady (who is literally played by Dawn French the actress in the movies)
- Bart Crane Jr. is Barty Crouch Jr.
It also seems like some of the names of the characters have been put through a randomizer. They’re some of the strangest names I’ve ever come across in a game!
Music & Sounds
The music, again, is very Harry Potter-esque but also quite generic for a fighting game. I wasn’t a fan and found it quite overwhelming at times, especially with all the other audios combined!
Controls
To control, tap on the characters you want in your team and then tap your enemies to fire an attack at them! It’s easy to remember – maybe a little too easy!

The Verdict
Wizarding Mystery isn’t a good game at all. Not only is it borderline illegal but the gameplay is just lacking any substance to it. I won’t be keeping this on my phone!
