Multiplayer games - split screen Wii

With split-screen, players don't connect to a network - local or online - because multiplayer play takes place on a single console or computer. Two or more players - usually a maximum of four - play at the same time, with each player having their own individual piece of screen on a TV or monitor. Split-screen is most popular on consoles, in genres such as shooters and racing games.

LEGO Harry Potter: Years 5-7 is the sequel to a 2010 release, an action adventure game by Traveller's Tales, combining the world of LEGO with the universe from the popular series of books and their movie adaptation.

During the game, the players can control various characters known from the universe created by J.K. Rowling, and visit a number of equally well-known locations, which at the same time feel completely new, since they are built out of LEGO blocks. The game is filled with adventure and arcade elements, but it also has its share of logic puzzles. Compared to the prequel, this game presents a gloomier and more serious world.
