Chapter 7 – Decision Time

Introduction

Hello everyone, welcome to our Walkthrough for Quidditch Season 1 Chapter 7 for Harry Potter Hogwarts Mystery. Last time, you found out that you passed the tryouts, which made you the newest member of your House team. You then started attending practices with your team, and eventually, Orion picked you to be a shot caller for the upcoming match. Most of the team members were shocked by this decision, which is quite understandable. In the end, you decide to meet with Murphy, play some wizard chess, and take your mind off the upcoming match.

Proceed to the Great Hall when you are ready. Upon arriving, you can interact with some of the characters before continuing. Murphy will be pretty happy knowing you’ll be easy to defeat since the upcoming match will make it much harder for you to focus.

He’ll also remind you that a game of chess could help you pick a strategy for the upcoming match.

He’ll ask if you think that’s the case. There are two options to respond to. While none of these will influence the story in any significant way, it is somewhat recommended to pick the second choice if you like Murphy and consider him your friend.

Moments later, you’ll learn that Murphy is well-aware of Orion’s strategy. Needless to say, you’ll be shocked.

Murphy will tell you not to worry since it isn’t too likely that the opposing team knows about Orion’s strategy. You’ll then get to play wizard chess with Murphy. Doing so requires earning five stars within an hour. Since all of the stars are needed to pass, avoid starting this if your energy is low.

There are bonus progress actions tied to Murphy and the chessboard, so focus on those to save some energy.

Sadly, no matter how hard you try, Murphy will end up winning.

Murphy will then decide to open up to you.

This time, he won’t persuade you to use his strategy. You’ll ask him if he’d like to play Gobstones sometimes.

Shortly after, Hagrid will arrive and tell you that your Head of House wants to see you.

There is a waiting period of four hours before you can continue. Since the Quidditch chapters aren’t time-limited, it is recommended to simply wait for this timer to expire.

Once the waiting time is over, head to the Lower Floor – West to continue. After arriving, you’ll learn that your Head of House takes much pride in your House team.

You’ll be asked if you are prepared for today’s match. There are two options to respond to. These will influence the following dialogue a bit, but ultimately, the story won’t be affected, so feel free to pick the one you prefer.

Depending on your House, you may get treated with some additional lines of dialogue.

Shortly after, your Head of House will wish you the best of luck before leaving. Next, you’ll be tasked with completing two Quidditch friendlies. Do these just like any others so far, and you should be fine.

Once you’re done with these, proceed to the Quidditch changing room to meet Orion. Upon greeting him, your captain will present your very own Quidditch robes.

You’ll then get to discuss Quidditch with him. Doing so requires earning one out of five stars within three hours.

There is a bonus progress action tied to your new robes. Prioritize it if you are looking to save some energy.

It turns out your new robes fit you perfectly. Orion will ask if you are ready for the upcoming match. There are three options to respond with, and while none of these will change the story, Orion will react best if you pick the third one.

He’ll then explain why he picked you to be the shot caller for the upcoming match.

He will also ask if you’d prefer if the curses and evil didn’t exist at all. Pick the option you prefer since these won’t influence the story in any meaningful way.

Moments later, Orion will open up, and you will learn that he’s an orphan. However, he does think of his team as a family, and apparently, you are the only one who knows his secret. He’s also willing to put a lot of trust in you. Orion will then advise you to prepare for the match and also meet Skye since she was asking for you earlier.

Sadly, Skye is not yet ready to talk to you. But she will be… in about six hours or so. Like before, it is recommended to simply wait until this timer expires and regenerate energy in the process.

Head to the Quidditch Stands to meet Skye once the waiting time is over. You’ll notice that, for some reason, she looks very upset.

Sadly, she doesn’t seem willing to open up to you and you will remind her that today is your first house match. However, she’ll still be sad about something. You have three options to respond to her. While none of these will impact the story, if you like Skye, it is recommended to go with the third option.

In the end, you will have to guess what’s bothering her. To do that, you’ll need to earn at least one out of five stars within three hours.

The only bonus progress action here is tied to your character, so focus on that one to save some energy.

When you’re done, Skye will finally open up and tell you what’s bothering her.

It looks like her father has very high expectations for his daughter.

It looks like he wants to see Parkin’s Pincer in action. However, Skye will leave the shot-calling to you. She won’t force you to do anything. Soon enough, she’ll inform you about the pre-match party. It starts in about three hours, so you have plenty of time to get ready.

Once you’re ready to go, proceed to the Training Grounds to attend the party. When you arrive, you can interact with some of the students before continuing. Penny will be the first one to greet you. She is definitely your number-one fan.

You will inform her about Orion’s secret strategy, and you will also tell her about the dilemma you have.

Basically, you’ll explain that each of your friends would be happy if you used their move.

Penny will grin from ear to ear once she hears that Ethan Parkin has arrived at Hogwarts. Shortly after, Face Pain Kid will ask you to help him with something.

Inspiring the crowd requires earning at least one out of five stars within eight hours.

Both your character and Face Paint Kid have bonus progress actions tied to them. Focus on these if you are looking to save some energy.

When you are done, Face Paint Kid will wish you the best of luck in the upcoming match. Once he leaves, Penny will tell you that there are two options for you.

Choose wisely. This choice will more than likely affect the following chapter. Still, there are no wrong answers. Just pick the option that suits your character’s personality.

Moments later, Erika Rath will approach you, accompanied by two of her housemates. She’ll just glance in your direction and move away.

Penny is quite certain she’ll be watching your match.

Shortly after, Murphy will arrive to inform you that the match is about to start.

With that, Chapter 7 of Season 1 will come to an end. Hit the Collect button to claim your rewards. You will receive 200 Coins and 50 Empathy Points.

This will also add Orion Amari to your list of friends.

It’s all up to you now! Will your shotcalling bring victory to your team? Or will you face a crushing defeat? Find out in the next chapter of Quidditch for Harry Potter Hogwarts Mystery!
