What Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone is

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone is an adventure game developed by Griptonite Games and released in 2001. It was published by EA Games. It is available on Game Boy Advance only.

The premise, in the publisher's words

The Game Boy Advance version is a top-down puzzle game. The player explores Hogwarts, and must attend classes which often include a challenge of collecting a certain number of items, such as challenge stars or potion ingredients. This game features the familiar monsters from the other games in the series, such as snails and gnomes. By performing admirably in learning spells and completing missions, Harry can gain extra House Points so that Gryffindor might win the House Cup. If he misbehaves by attacking other students or being caught wandering the halls at night, points will however be deducted.
