Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery vs Silent Hill
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.
Silent Hill
Silent Hill is the first game in one of the biggest horror-themed adventure game franchise. This game lets you join Harry Mason, the average concerned father, who based on a clue he obtained, went to the mysterious and eerie town of Silent Hill in search of his missing adopted daughter, Cheryl. However, things took a turn for the worst when Harry stumbled upon a cult that is trying to revive an evil deity it worships and discovered the origin of his daughter. Being an adventure game, Silent Hill also offers multiple endings depending on the actions you take and the decisions you make in addition to an engrossing story.Konami has also reinvented this classic and produced a remastered version of the game, called Silent Hill: Shattered Memories, for Wii, PSP and PS2.
