Once you arrive, you can interact with some of the characters by tapping on the speech bubbles above them.

Tonks was kind enough to offer you a butterbeer.

Apparently, this one comes with a surprise. Shortly after drinking it, you’ll start belching uncontrollably.

Tulip will then arrive and explain what’s going on.

She obviously wasn’t amused by this one, but she’ll want to hear if you agree with her. You have three options to respond with. Each one will lead to the same outcome, but your friends will react differently, depending on your choice.

Either way, two of them will decide to hold a Prank Competition to see who is the better prankster.

And you’ll be the one to judge their “pranking performance”.

The first thing to do will be conducting a poll of the students present at the Three Broomsticks. To complete this task, you need to earn five stars within an hour. Passing, on the other hand, only requires earning a single star.

If you are looking to save some energy, it is recommended to earn a couple of stars and then wait until the timer runs out. This can potentially save you around 20 energy points, which could save you some time in the long run, considering that the adventure is time-limited.

On the other hand, if you want to get a Chocolate Frog, there’s a chance to get one if you earn all the stars.

Bonus progress actions are tied to your character and the butterbeer in Madam Rosmerta’s right hand. Prioritize these actions to save some energy. Don’t forget to swipe the screen left and right to check all the available actions.

Sadly, these results alone aren’t enough to judge who is the better prankster.

You’ll tell them you need to see some more of their pranks before you can make a decision. In order to do that, they’ll need to get some more pranking supplies, and what better place to look for those than Zonko’s Joke Shop. Proceed there when you are ready.

When you get there, you’ll be able to check out what some of the characters have to say before continuing.

Shortly after, you’ll get to choose who to shop with. You can pick either of them if your friendship level is six or higher, or you can choose to remain neutral. Some of the dialogue lines will differ, depending on this choice, but the general outcome will stay the same.

The shopping will begin after that. For this task, you have three hours to earn five stars in order to pass. Because of that, you should avoid starting with an empty energy bar.

There are bonus progress actions tied to your character and to one of the students. Prioritize these actions to save some energy.

Once you are done, proceed to the caretaker’s office to see what kind of prank Tonks got in mind.

When you get there, you’ll find out exactly what she was planning.

The only question is, how will Filch react once he sees all those frogs inside his office. You have three options to guess. None of these will impact the story, so feel free to pick the one you prefer.

Just before you were about to leave, Tulip will realize that her toad, Dennis is missing. Apparently, he jumped right out of her pocket and got mixed with all the other frogs.

It’s up to you to find her pet. In order to do that you need to earn at least one out of five possible stars within an hour.

It is advised to earn one star and let the timer expire. This way, you can save some energy which could help you finish the adventure in time. On the other hand, if you want to get a Chocolate Frog, there’s a chance to get one if you earn all the stars.

Bonus progress action is tied to your character. Prioritize this action to save some energy.

When you’re done, you’ll locate Tulip’s pet.

Now is the time to leave the office before the caretaker comes back.

Head to the Clocktower Courtyard for the next task. Upon arriving, you’ll be able to interact with some students. Simply tap on the speech-bubbles above them to do so.

Apparently, Rita Skeeter is back at Hogwarts and she is planning to write a new article.

And it seems she is willing to write just about anything in order to sell more papers.

After talking to her for a while, you’ll get the opportunity to try and convince her not to write lies about you or your brother. You have three hours to complete this task and earn five stars to pass.

There is a bonus progress action tied to your character. Prioritize it to save some energy.

Once you are done, you’ll realize she isn’t willing to let go of this one.

Which is why you need to find a way to stop her from spreading more lies about you and your family.

With that being said, the first part of the adventure will come to an end. Hit the Collect button to claim your reward. You will receive 400 Coins.

This is an unexpected turn of events. What will you do to prevent Rita from ruining your reputation? How will you stop her? Find out in continuation of this exciting adventure.
