Creatures

Gnome: Gnomes are annoying little creatures who bite you and steal your Bertie Botts Every Flavoured Beans. Once they steal them, you can not get them back. They can be easily stunned with the Flipendo knockback jinx.
Orange Snail: Orange Snails can burn you if you touch them or their slime trails. Cast Flipendo to stun them.
Venomous Tentacula: A nasty plant that can bite Harry if he gets too close. The can be wilted by casting Incendio. In Sprout's garden you meet a lot of Venomous Tentaculas. You haven't learned how to cast Incendio then, so you'll have to dodge them.
Doxy: Pixie-like flying beasts who bite when you get too close. Cast Flipendo on them to repel them.
Fire Crab: There are only two Fire Crabs in the whole game, in the fire seed level. It can shoot fire out of its backside. Cast Flipendo on it twice to knock it over.
Ghost: Nearly Headless Nick has his main role during a level where Harry must avoid Filch and Mrs. Norris. He manages to point Harry the way around the library. The Grey Lady just floats around Hogwarts castle and the Nearly Headless Nick can be talked with, but if you touch the Bloody Baron in the dungeons, you lose stamina. The Baron also indirectly assists you by opening doors when he goes through them. Poltergeist Peeves is causing trouble for Harry and Filch and has to be fought in two Boss fights. The Fat Friar is absent.
Troll: There is only one troll in the game. In the same time that Ron casts the Levitation Charm to hit the club to its head Harry has to cast Flipendo to keep the junk the troll throws away from you.
Dragon: The dragon Norbert is the only dragon in the game. You have to fetch fire seeds for it.
Pig: Hagrid raises pigs in his garden
Flobberworm: Cast Flipendo on the symbol to get its mucus
Goat: Hagrid grows a goat in his garden.
Owl: Harry's owl Hedwig, who brings him messages.
Fluffy: Hagrid's three-headed dog. One of the guardians of the Philosopher's Stone. Can be lulled to sleep using the harp.
Gargoyle: Cast Lumos on them and a secret area will light up.
Devil's Snare: The deadly plant that will kill Ron and Hermione if Harry doesn't cast Incendio on it.

Platforms

The first four versions of the game were released in 2001 by EA for the PC, MAC, Game Boy Colour, Game Boy Advance, and the PlayStation. The PC version was ported to the Mac by Aspyr in 2002. Another version, for GameCube, PlayStation 2, and Xbox, was released in 2003.

Debug mode

Debug mode can be accessed in the PC/MAC version of the game as it is built on the Unreal Engine. It includes things like ghost mode, fly mode, and others.

Save Game

Screenshot 2308 — Save Game book in PC version

In the various versions of the game Save Game books appear throughout the game at various places such as the Forbidden Forest, Hogwarts Castle Hagrid's Hut etc. They help the player to save the progress so that the player won't have to restart the game from the beginning.

Controlling of game

In the PS1 version of the game various manuals appear throughout the game on how to control the game, in the shape of blue books.

Trivia

Peeves does not appear in the film, but is battled on a regular basis in this game. In the GameCube, Xbox, and PS2 versions he only appears in a cutscene, but is never battled.
In the PC/MAC version, the Forbidden Forest part is not included.
In the film and book, Harry's broomstick is jinxed in the first Quidditch match. In the PC/MAC and PS1 version, both Quidditch matches have no Jinxed brooms or accidents. In the PS2/Gamecube/Xbox version, the Slytherin match is played on a jinxed broom.
In the book, Quirrell summons ropes to tie Harry by snapping his fingers. In the film, Quirrell snaps his fingers to make fire surround the area. In the PC/MAC version, Quirrell moves his hands to conjure fire around the area. But in the PS1 version, Quirrell does not make fire surround the area, but green ropes do tie themselves around Harry at times. And in all the video games, Voldemort is the final boss.
In the PC and PlayStation versions of the game, Norbert seems to appear early in the game, unlike in the book and movie where he appears nearly at the end of the story.
Norbert is omitted in the PlayStation 2, Xbox, Nintendo Gamecube and Game Boy Advance versions of the game.
Originally Reparo, Verdimillious and an unnamed spell were to appear in the PC/MAC Version of the game. Also Incendio and Wingardium Leviosa were to have more uses.
The Dursleys were to appear in the PC/MAC Version of the game because they have their model files still in the game.
Harry constantly fights Draco on a daily basis. Though, in the book and movie, Harry doesn't fight Draco at all until Year 2.
In the GBA version of the game, Harry gets caught by Professor Snape instead of Filch, and Harry's detention in the forest isn't the same as the book or movie.
In the GBA version of the game, Harry uses Flipendo on the Troll and it falls in a hole in the girls bathroom. In the book and the mvie, Ron used the Levitation Charm on the troll's club to bash the troll's head with it.
- However, in later parts of the game during the detention in the forest, it's possible to use the said charm on the trolls despite there being no gaps to push them in (using it on them causes them to smack their own heads and if cast on them five times they will fall over and remain out cold).
In the PlayStation 2, Gamecube and Xbox versions of the game the Quidditch Match against Slytherin is at the last match of the year rather than the first.
In the PC, PS1 and PlayStation version of the game, Harry gets trapped in the dungeons during Potions class.
In the PlayStation 2, Xbox, Gamecube versions of the game, Harry goes alone in the Forbidden Forest.
The GBC Version of the game has a glitch during the part where you need to find ingredients for Snape. One of them is supposed to be found by examining a tapestry in Snape's office. However, if you get the other ingredient first, the one in Snape's office will never appear and you will be forced to restart the game.
In the beginning of the PC/MAC Version of the game, Dumbledore, when greeting Harry Potter in the beginning of the game, tells him about a story about finding a room with a lot of toilet pots, and the next time he found lots of fire tortoises. This was actually taken from a brief conversation Dumbledore had with one of the ministry officials during the Yule Ball in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.
The GBA version of the game is unusual for a sprite-based game in that it has non-ambidextrous sprites for one of its characters; Harry himself has a separate set of left and right sprites to show that he always holds his wand in his right hand.

In the PC/MAC and PS1 version, both Quidditch matches have no Jinxed brooms or accidents. In the PS2/Gamecube/XBox version, the Slytherin match is played on a jinxed broom.

In the PC/MAC version, Quirrell moves his hands to conjure fire around the area. But in the PS1 version, Quirrell does not make fire surround the area, but green ropes do tie themselves around Harry at times. And in all the video games, Voldemort is the final boss.

 *The Dursleys were to appear in the PC/MAC Version of the game because they have their model files still in the game.
 *Harry constantly fights Draco on a daily basis. Though, in the book and movie, Harry doesn't fight Draco at all until Year 2.
 *In the GBA version of the game, Harry gets caught by Professor Snape instead of Filch, and Harry's detention in the forest isn't the same as the book or movie.
-*In the GBA version of the game, Harry uses Flipendo on the Troll and it falls in a hole in the girls bathroom. In the book and Movie, Ron used the [[Levitation Charm]] on the troll's club to bash the troll's head with it.

+**However, in later parts of the game during the detention in the forest, it's possible to use the said charm on the trolls despite there being no gaps to push them in (using it on them causes them to smack their own heads and if cast on them five times they will fall over and remain out cold).

 *The GBC Version of the game has a glitch during the part where you need to find ingredients for Snape. One of them is supposed to be found by examining a tapestry in Snape's office. However, if you get the other ingredient first, the one in Snape's office will never appear and you will be forced to restart the game.
+*In the beginning of the PC/MAC Version of the game, Dumbledore, when greeting Harry Potter in the beginning of the game, tells him about a story about finding a room with a lot of toilet pots, and the next time he found lots of fire tortoises. This was actually taken from a brief conversation Dumbledore had with one of the ministry officials during the Yule Ball in ''Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire''.
+*The GBA version of the game is unusual for a sprite-based game in that it has non-ambidextrous sprites for one of its characters; Harry himself has a separate set of left and right sprites to show that he always holds his wand in his right hand.
