Bully vs Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery
Bully
Bully is rather controversial simulation/RPG where you play as a mischievous 15-year-old Jimmy Hopkins who is starting at a fictional boarding school in New England, the infamous Bullworth Academy. The game lets you play the role of a bully as you go around the school playing pranks on other students, get into fights, skipping classes, and maybe even kissing the hottest girl at school behind the bleachers.In a dysfunctional school like Bullworth, navigating the social hierarchy isn't an easy task. However, the game is laced with plenty of hilarious moments that lighten the game somewhat. If this sound like fun to you, you should definitely check the game out!
Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery
Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery is a story-driven, “choose your own adventure”-like, adventure-RPG where you get to attend the renowned School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Featuring a whole new storyline but with many familiar characters, you'll get to learn how to cast spells and brew potions, make new friends (and rivals) along the way, and get drawn to the many mysteries that the ancient school hides within its depths. The game even backs up your own adventures with an intriguing story about your missing brother who apparently was expelled as he had broken school rules when he was searching for the fabled Cursed Vaults.The gameplay is pretty casual and straightforward for the most part - as long as you have enough energy points, you can complete actions, tasks, and subsequently quests. However, it's unfortunate that the game doesn't use a more reflex-based gameplay during intense scenes that obviously call for more rapid actions. This is the only thing that truly breaks the immersion of the game.
Nevertheless, Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery is still a very well-made game and it is worth playing for the visuals, the experience of being an "actual" Hogwarts student, and the mystery-infused storyline. The game is free to play and is available on both Android and iOS.
