NOTE: This is a scheduled post and Youtube's processing has been stuck at 95% for like an hour. If this isn't working when the post goes live, sit tight, I'll get to it when I can!!

For the second part of our December extravaganza, we take a look at one of the more well-liked pieces of HP series nostalgia: the tie-in Lego-branded video game! Some of the puzzles for children definitely went over our wizened heads. There's also a bit so bad (like, content-wise, not difficulty-wise) I cut it altogether. Turns out this franchise always had transphobic elements; who knew!?

Anyway, esports gameplay this is not, but what we lack in efficiency we make up for with chats about college drinking habits, trashy manga/anime we consumed as teens, bad teachers, and much much more! A note: we'll talk about it in the episode itself, but this was actually recorded in two sessions a week apart because my internet went out for two days in the middle of our first attempt! If you're wondering why we suddenly restart a gameplay section halfway through, that's why.

What's next, you might ask? Well, I'll give you a hint: it has a cover system...
