Description
About This Game
In Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, Voldemort is tightening his
grip on both the Muggle and wizarding worlds and Hogwarts™ is no longer
the safe haven it once was. Harry suspects that dangers may even lie
within the castle, but Dumbledore is more intent upon preparing him for
the final battle that he knows is fast approaching. Together they work
to find the key to unlock Voldemort’s defenses and, to this end,
Dumbledore recruits his old friend and colleague, the well-connected and
unsuspecting bon vivant Professor Horace Slughorn, whom he believes
holds crucial information. Meanwhile, the students are under attack from
a very different adversary as teenage hormones rage across the ramparts.
Harry finds himself more and more drawn to Ginny, but so is Dean Thomas.
And Lavender Brown has decided that Ron is the one for her, only she
hadn't counted on Romilda Vane’s chocolates! And then there’s Hermione,
simmering with jealousy but determined not to show her feelings. As
romance blossoms, one student remains aloof. He is determined to make
his mark, albeit a dark one. Love is in the air, but tragedy lies ahead
and Hogwarts may never be the same again.
Return to Hogwarts to help Harry survive his sixth year. You will have a
chance to engage in exciting wizard duels, mix magical ingredients in
Potions class and take to the air as the Seeker of the Gryffindor
Quidditch team. You may even get sidetracked by Ron’s romantic
entanglements as you journey towards a dramatic climax and discover the
identity of the Half-Blood Prince.
