Full Version: Help With Chamber Of Secrets Game

Allie
I'm playing the Chamber of Secrets PC game for the first time, as you may have guessed. Hermione has just come up with the idea to make Polyjuice Potion and now I (Harry) am supposed to be stealing ingredients from Snape's private stores. I found some passageway through the Potions classroom that seems to be leading to the private stores, but it's taking quite a while to find anything. Does anybody who has played the game before know approximately how long it should take to get there? (Any Chamber of Secrets cheats would be welcome too! wink.gif )

Would the PC game be the same as the game console kind (X-Box)? If it is.. I'd be glad to help because I flipped it!! wink.gif

Mind you.. it's the only game I've ever beaten! tongue.gif
Allie
Hmm... I don't have X-Box so I'm not a hundred percent sure the PC game is the same, but I would guess that it is. Any tips you have would be helpful regardless, and congratulations on beating the game! smile.gif

Thankies!! Well.. it was pretty easy. The only part that frustrated me the most was the part where you have to jump from like block to block. The trick is... the blocks are narrow! That part took me foreeeeeeeevvvvvvvverrrr and I was so frustrated, like you can't imagine.

So did you beat that part yet? Or do you still need help? You could look for cheats and tips and tricks on the web. If I find something, I'll post it here! biggrin.gif

well i have this game too well when your finding the thing Hermione needs for the potion well you have to go to werid places just like when your in a class and they make you take a task to get that magic and you have to complete the task before the time runs out it just like that but with out the time i think so i totally forgot i haven't played this game since july. and please forgive me if you can't understand a thing i just said lol biggrin.gif

Hey I have the pc game I am stuck at the big abbyss I cast the spell all over the dang tree still no go. Is this becuase this CD did not get that programed in it?

Since you cant complete the level its best you cheat your onw way.
Its best you go to gamewinners
Harry Potter Cheats

After reaching gamewinners just scroll down untill you see the Harry Potter and The Chamber of Secrets.
Click on it and Ta-Da.

Cheers

Sorry can't help but I do have a quick question.
Where can I find a CoS PS2 game? I 've been searching forever and can't find one.
pigwidigon
humm I just saw it in my local Wal Mart actually...but I live in Windsor Ontario...so I think that would not be feasable..I would suggest using ebay or an online store like that..you may be able to find something..if you dont want to do that maybe call like a local game store in your area and see if they can special order it for you..

Careful next time though..your post was a borderline one liner and one liners arent allowed on the forums...please elaborate more next time

Hi Allie. I know it takes a while because my brother, who has completed it, complained it was too long. I does take a while but don't worry that something is wrong. Just keep playing.

I hope that hepled!

Caity biggrin.gif

Heyz, Allie.

Yeah, I remember thinking that too. It takes forever to get there, and I was like "Am I going the right way?" Don't worry about it. You'll get there in time. Oh, but watch out for bowtruckles, gnomes, and firecrabs. And Peeves, too. wink.gif

Have fun with the game, and tell me if you need any more help with it; that's the game I do best on.

Hey!
I was bored and so started playing it again the other day.
Firstly, after I found Ginny at the burrow the game skipped to at Hogwarts - I didn't go to Diagon Alley, drive teh car or defeat the whomping willow. Did this happen to anyone else?
And now I'm at the point where you have to get to the DADA lesson before the time runs out. But I just can't do it - does anyone know anycheats?
(P.S. im playing on psone)

the best place to go to for any cheat or faq for a game no matter what consule, is: http://wwww.ign.com this is the best site to go to!! first click on the faq button near the bottom of the scoll thingy on the left, then go to the right side, you will see some bluish boxes, go to the pc one, then go to <see all> this will talk you to the A-Z menu of the pc games, just select "h" then, you will see a bunch of game names, go to harry potter and the chamber of secrets. this will take you to a list of a few faq posters. click on the most updated one there is and it will take you to the faqs for your game. this is where you can decide where you are in the game and scroll to what part and read, that is all you have to do, happy gaming!!

this is odd, you should have gone through those parts, for one, there is alot of wizards cards in diagon alley and the whopping willow levels. check your game, make sure it isnt scatched then, if it isnt then run some warm water over the readable part of the disc. then wipe dry with some gauze, and buff with a soft felt cloth or some kind of terryclothed towell. then put the game in the system and try again. never clean any cd dvd, or game disc with a circular motion, this will scratch the readable part and then the game will be ruined and you would have to buy a whole new one!! wait are you playing SS for ps1, or CoS?

To the MODS: i forgot, i thought someone had posted between my last post, can one of you merge this one with the previous one?
xXTonksXx
hi ive got cos on ps1 and just after they decide to make polyjuice potion it freezes and you cant get any further anyone else got a similar problem?? its really bugging me that i cant finish it because loads of people have finished the 4th. and i havent even finished the 2nd!
Bellatrix
I've only beat the game 3 times. I have it for the PC, too. I sure that I can help you.

Just keep going where it takes you, is all that I can say. It leads you to very weird and confusing places but you just keep going the way that it tells you to go. The weirdest ingredent to get is the piece of Goyle. It's really hard and confusing to get that! It's really weird the way that it leads you. It makes you follow a trail of chicken. biggrin.gif Well, good luck! (You might need it! laugh.gif )

trevors_protector

chhermione
Thank you so much trevors_protector! It was really annoying me. As soon as I get a chance I'm going to kill that stupid Basilisk!

*chhermione* biggrin.gif
ollie-hampson

Okay, this is sad, but on my PC game I'm at the part where Harry is at Aargon, the giant spider, and once I get him down from his web... thing... he kills me, really easily... I'm not sure if there really is any advice anyone can give me... just thought I'd put it out there... happy.gif

The way i did it was keep walking around, and when aragog charges twords you, movew out of the way. Make sure to keep an eye on him for when he stands up so you can use Incendio.

I just beat the basilisk, and im trying to get more house points by helping people out on the grounds. This one guy wants me to find Mandrake Roots but i dont know where to find them. Anyone know where?

I have CoS on PS2, and I can't defeat the bookcase after getting Hogwarts: A History for Hermione. Anybody willing to help? :S

Besides that, does anyone have any cheat codes for CoS? (Only on PS2) Thanks.
TRUST ME
i can't install the game 'cause
i've lost the manual where the code is.
is there any way to get a new code,
or do i have to buy a new game?
thanks.

If the manual is for the PC then yes you would have to get another one each PC game has a unique code to it...

Does anyone know where to get the Chamber of Secrets game? I have a copy, but it won't install onto my computer sad.gif & I'd like to play it again! smile.gif If you know where I could get another copy, that'd be great!
X-Girl
Alicia I'd look on either Amazon for PC or if you have Play Station or another game console like that you can always try used games stores like EB Games or Game Stop. I've seen a ton of games at stores like that. You could probably Google it and maybe come up with something too.

Although if you have a new computer with Vista the game might not work. We just got Vista a couple months ago and we're having a lot of trouble putting games on. If that's the case you could always look at the website for whoever made the game and see if they have some sort of patch.

Hope that helps.

I REALLY need help!

I'm almost finished with the game on the PC. I've gotten every card without paying, done the Gryffindor Challenge Room, and found ALMOST all the secrets, except one.

I know in the second half of the Chamber of Secrets there's 4 secrets to find. I can only find 3/4. I've gone to many different guides to find out where the one I'm missing is, but to no avail.

Does ANYONE know where the 4th secret is so I can finish this game?!
