Line 35:
* [[First-Person Ghost]]: The only part of your character you see outside of the map is the tip of your wand.
* [[Fixed Camera]]: All actions outside of the map and the management screens are presented in a first-person point of view, with the camera (that of the device you're playing on) serving as your "eyes". For reasons fundamental to the nature of an AR game, this cannot be changed.
* [[Hidden Object Game|Fragmented Hidden Object Game]]: Sortakinda. Most of the Foundables scattered around the world, while appearing to be complete objects or beings, are actually magically-created fragments. You have to find all their parts -- anywhere from three to ''120'' -- before you have officially "recovered" them.
* [[Harmless Freezing]]: Several Foundables feature one or more persons embedded in a mass of ice, which you must destroy to free them. Other than the occasional burst of frosty breath, after they are released they are unharmed.
* [[Hero of Another Story]]: ''You'', if you miss too many of the story developments that are only revealed by completing the tasks assigned during special events. Miss enough and you'll have no idea what your contacts are talking about.
* [[Hidden Object Game|Fragmented Hidden Object Game]]: Sortakinda. Most of the Foundables scattered around the world, while appearing to be complete objects or beings, are actually magically-created fragments. You have to find all their parts -- anywhere from three to ''120'' -- before you have officially "recovered" them.
* [[Hide Your Children]]: Averted, interestingly enough. Some of the Foundables are Hogwarts students; others are time-shifted versions of the ''Harry Potter'' characters (from the period of the books) -- even as you speak with their adult selves on a regular basis. Lampshaded at least once when the late-thirties Harry confides in you how disconcerting seeing his teenaged self is.
* [[Hit Points]]: Called "Endurance".
Line 58:
* [[Nice Hat]]: Your avatar on the game map is wearing a jaunty pointy hat with a couple feathers in it.
* [[Now Where Was I Going Again?]]: Averted. There are no quest markers, travel destinations or other map goals. You just walk, and wherever you go, that's where the action is. Even easier is drinking a Trace Tonic and/or deploying Dark Detectors at an Inn and simply waiting for the action to come to you.
* [[Organ Drops]]: Among other potions ingredients the player could find scattered about the game world, there were frog brains, dragon livers, and newt spleens, as well as bodily fluids like armadillo bile and re'em blood.
* [[Pay to Win]]: An accusation made of the game from shortly after its release. The game's design -- particularly the non-regenerating spell energy -- seemed to be deliberately engineered to funnel even the most casual player into making frequent purchases from the game store simply to have a basic enjoyable game experience for more than a few minutes at a time.
* [[Pillar of Light]]: May appear over various traces on the map. Yellow and red pillars indicate increasingly difficult Confoundables to fight; purple indicates traces specific to a special event. Orange pillars appear only over Oddity traces, and indicate a Death Eater.
