I still can't get far in that game. If I'm on the broom I don't pick up things. I also struggle finding the magical objects too, and I keep wasting my spells.

In terms of accessible harry potter games that is very much first on the list. Regarding other games, there is a legend of the green dragon mod based around harry potter called hogwarts live. Gameplay seemed pretty standard for Logd, fight monsters in the forbidden forest with a wand until your tough enough to take on lord voldemort, but it had characters from the books and a couple of extra mechanics like school houses and house points. I've heard of a couple of forum based rp games, one called hogwarts extreme for example, but those are basically role play only with little to no mechanics. In general myself I still think Sarah is the best theme for a game and likely the best model for one either, play a game specific character and explore the hp world, rather than trying to emulate one of the books completely since the books are as much about the investigation, the mystery and the character as the magic, monsters and combat. That's why I tend to think much as with a startrek or Doctor who game you'd be better with a game set around! the potter universe rather than one with specific game characters. for example, how about an exploration action game in which you played an official working for the department for the regulation and control of magical creatures and were tasked (possibly with the assistance of Hagrid, grorp, fang, firense and dobby), with wandering through the forests and mountains around hogwarts castle (and maybe the lake too), looking for the various creatures such as giants, magically controlled snakes and dementors which Voldemort used in his army, (perhaps along with any hiding death eaters), and having to either stun or remove them as a threat. That would be the perfect setting for an exploration action game, say either another fps like Sarah or even a side scroller, and yet would be quite fine within the hp universe and not require something as ridiculous as having harry traverse levels of jumps and crazy traps. Beware the grue!
