In fact, I am certain that what we have is now the premier handheld version.īut first thing’s first – for the benefit of those who have never seen a Lego game in action (other than getting you from out of your cave), Lego Harry Potter: Years 1-4 is a re-imagination of J.K. This is no lazy carbon-copy, good readers– graphics look crisp and vibrant (particularly on the Retina display, but even so on the 3GS we primarily tested it on) and the frame rate is consistently good controls have been tastefully re-modelled for the iOS with mini-games that make great use of the touch-screen and the musical score is authentic and second-to-none. Though I haven’t had the opportunity to play either, from screenshot comparisons you can immediately tell that the game has– contrary to many ports– benefited dramatically from its translation to the more capable iPhone and iPad hardware. Lego Harry Potter: Years 1-4 is in actual fact a port of the PSP and DS version of the game released earlier this year. Mobile dev team haven’t rested on their laurels in all this time, having really stepped up to make amends with the release of Lego Harry Potter: Years 1-4, a universal app for the iPhone and iPad. Still, two years is a long time in development land, and of late we’ve seen developers make leaps and bounds in what can be squeezed from the Apple devices. I couldn’t help but feel more than a little trepidation at the announcement of a new Lego game for the iOS, particularly after the huge disappointment that was Lego: Batman.
