In both book and movie form, Azkaban is rather light on action, which is a bit of a problem when you want to adapt that story as an Action-Adventure video game. Actionized Adaptation: Arguably, by necessity. Starting with Goblet of Fire, the PC version is simply a port of the console version. Perhaps due to the source material being more emotional and less action-oriented, The Stations of the Canon are mostly just skimmed over.Īzkaban marks the last instance of a unique PC version developed by KnowWonder, which went out of business shortly afterwards.

The big change this time is that Ron and Hermione have been Promoted to Playable, allowing you to play as all three members of the trio. The game has a similar approach to the previous entry, with Hogwarts being a Wide-Open Sandbox that you can explore at your leisure in between completing the levels necessary to advance the story. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban is a 2004 Harry Potter video game released by Electronic Arts to coincide with the release of the film by the same name.
