Gameplay
In the game, the player races alongside other wizards in the Broomstick Grand Prix. The game involves the player blasting opponents out of the sky with their magical powers, and collecting extra ammunition as they skim tree-tops and plunge under low bridges and archways.
The game has over 40 stages spread across 5 levels, with 8 playable characters to choose from.
There are a few other non-racing portions. The player can also try to collect books or try to take down a dragon by shooting it with magical powers.
Reception
IGN gave the game a 2.0/10, citing its sub-par menus, presentation, controls, and gameplay.[4]
