Ever wish you could step into the wizarding world of Harry Potter? Still waiting for your Hogwarts letter?
We all are. This is what happens when you give up waiting (and for legal reasons, this is as close as any of us are probably gonna get).Anyway, welcome to Hogwarts Live (HL), the best Harry Potter RPG/Parody Game on the net (at least according to us). If you don't believe us, you're wrong—but also create a character and find out just how wrong you are.
In short: Hogwarts Live RPG is a free, online, multiplayer Harry Potter parody game that doesn't require you to download anything, own an expensive computer, or sell your soul (we double checked this one). Oh, and since we believe magic should be for everyone it's fully accessible to the visually impaired (i.e., blind accessible).
You'll create a character, attend a magical school, and battle everything from fantastic beasts to professors who have completely given up on their students (just like in the real world). Rise through the ranks, hoard gold, and try to survive long enough to become a Champion (or, more likely, suffer an embarrassing defeat at the hands of another first year student).
Let's be clear: this is not a high-budget, next-gen MMORPG with ultra-HD graphics and ray-traced spellcasting. It's a text-based, browser-based adventure game that requires you to use your imagination (which we realize is a big ask in an age where people can't even get through a 20 second TikTok).
Also, Hogwarts Live is a fan-made parody—meaning it's not official, not endorsed or authorized by Warner Bros., and definitely not something J.K. Rowling signed off on. This is a satirical work meant for entertainment and should not be confused with the official Harry Potter games, books, movies, and related media.
