Summary: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets is the second Harry Potter video game for the PlayStation. The game is more varied than its predecessor, there are a variety of mini-games in addition to platforming and maze sections. There are also some unique action sequences, including traveling by floo powder, which entails sliding down a narrow path at high speed, or fleeing from the Hogwarts Express in a flying car. As in the first game, there are also Quidditch matches. Another big part of the game are wizarding duels: these take the form of a best-of-three bout, where the two wizards zap each other with magic while trying to evade the other's spells until one duelist's health is down.
