Medium Harry Potter Trivia Questions
The medium questions from our harry potter set, 14 of them, each with the answer and an explanation below the game.
Keys 1-4 pick an answer, Enter moves on. Nothing is saved to an account.
The medium questions ask for specifics that turn up once or twice: the creature in the Chamber, the spell that produces a Patronus, the three Deathly Hallows, and who Harry's godfather is. This is the band that separates the film watchers from the readers.
