Two fan projects bring the early Harry Potter PC games to modern systems. HP2 PC runs Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (PC, 2002) natively on Apple silicon Macs, builds for Windows and Linux, and has a browser version. Flipendo is an open-source engine that plays Philosopher’s Stone (PC, 2001) start to finish. Both need your own copy of the original PC game; neither includes it. Checked on 29 October 2026.

HP2 PC (Chamber of Secrets)
On GitHub as cefege/harry-potter-2-chamber-of-secrets-pc, MIT-licensed, first release v0.1.0 on 27 September 2026.
- macOS: a DMG for Apple silicon from the releases page, or Homebrew. The launcher asks you to choose your game folder (with
Maps,SystemandTextures) or the CD as an.iso. - Windows and Linux: build from source for now; the README says a Windows ZIP comes with the next release. Raspberry Pi is also listed.
- Browser: the project’s own page, hp2.mihaimateias.com, runs a WebAssembly build. When we opened it, it showed Choose your game folder and I have the game CD as an .iso file, and said the files stay on your device.
Flipendo (Philosopher’s Stone)
On GitHub as kroplabeskidu/flipendo, GPL-3.0, v1.3 on 28 October 2026 for Windows, Linux and macOS. Its README says Philosopher’s Stone is playable from start to finish with native resolution, real widescreen, no SafeDisc and mod support, and Chamber of Secrets is in progress on the same engine.
What you need
- Your own copy of the original PC game: the installed folder or the CD image. We don’t explain how to get game files.
- For HP2 PC: an Apple silicon Mac for the ready-made app, or the tools to build it on Windows or Linux; a current desktop browser for the web version.
- For Flipendo: Windows, Linux or macOS.
We haven’t played either through ourselves.
Other Harry Potter projects
- Prisoner of Azkaban (PS2): an early recompilation for Mac and iOS (chaikosh/azkaban-recomp).
- Chamber of Secrets (GameCube): an early recompilation, not playable yet.
More projects like these are in our recompiled games list.
Is it safe and legal?
- Both are unofficial fan projects; their code is open source, the games are not.
- The browser build reads your files in the page; it does not upload them, per its own message.
- Download only from the projects’ GitHub releases.
FAQ
Can you play Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets on a modern Mac or PC?
Yes, with your own copy of the 2002 PC game. The fan project HP2 PC runs it natively on Apple silicon Macs, builds for Windows and Linux, and has a browser version. It needs the original game files.
Can I play Harry Potter in my browser?
Only with your own game files. The HP2 browser build opens a folder picker and asks for your installed Chamber of Secrets folder or the CD as an .iso; it does not include the game. We checked this on 29 October 2026.
What about Philosopher's Stone?
Flipendo, a separate open-source engine, plays the 2001 PC game Philosopher's Stone (Sorcerer's Stone in the US) from start to finish on Windows, Linux and macOS, and is working on Chamber of Secrets too.
Are these the PS1 or PS2 Harry Potter games?
No. Both projects are for the PC versions by KnowWonder, which are different games from the console versions. For the PS2 Prisoner of Azkaban there is only an early recompilation for Mac and iOS.
Is this official?
No. Both are unofficial fan projects with no link to Electronic Arts or Warner Bros.
Unofficial. This page is written by an independent directory.
