Today I wanted to once again show another small Harry Potter 1 (PC) funfact to you! You might have been very annoyed by a certain cat in this game before while trying to sneak past Filch in the lategame of the game and thought to yourself: Wouldn't it just be absolutely amazing if I could cast a spell on this stupid thing?
Well it turns out that for whatever reason, you ACTUALLY CAN! It needs a tiny bit of fast movement and a little speedrunning magic but the devs somehow left us with a spell trigger for Mrs. Norris if you skip a bit ahead of Filch and out of all the spells it could have been they even made it Incendio!
Why? I honestly don't really have an explanation for it myself, maybe the developers just hated her as much as we did playing the game and it was their way of getting some silent revenge in. Either way it's cool that this exists and I hope that it was a new thing for some of you to uncover and that you enjoye this short!

![I am trying to do ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING inside Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (PC)! [Max%]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/leu9gl7_VaU/mqdefault.jpg "I am trying to do ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING inside Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (PC)! [Max%]
We have done a good couple of Max% runs recently with an additional ruleset put on top (like a different language or One-Hit KO) but now its honestly time again for a good old classic Max% Speedrun going for a valid time and PB! And especially the valid time aspect is a lot easier said than done in this run since the rules basically involve doing EVERYTHING you could think of in this game which means there are also some things that are easy to forget and miss.
Especially the Trigger All Cutscenes rule is very easy to accidentally break, there are just a ton of small and non-story cutscenes in this game that the devs kind of added in there to make the immersion better and for some great world building. So there were a lot of things to remember especially in the early game of the run! On top of that we of course have to collect everything, cast onto everything, do the normal 100% stuff and even buy items once at every trader in the game!
I absolutely love doing those Max% runs though, they always very much remind me of a casual childhood attempt just walking around interacting with and discovering everything I possibly could back then and it also leads us through a good couple of areas that we havent seen in a while since the Speedrun route doesnt go past it. Always a blast to be doing those, I have to redo that concept again in both Harry Potter 1 (PC) and Harry Potter 3 (PC) again soon as well!
