Anyone else mildly obsessed with Hogwarts Mystery? I sure am, though it has toned out a bit since it first came out, but still. I GET TO GO TO HOGWARTS. I could review the game, but a post with gifs and memes showing my feelings and thoughts instead is a lot more fun. So let’s dive in!
Warning: minor spoilers ahead!
Me when my Prefect complains that I’m ruining Hufflepuff’s chance of winning the House Cup yet I’m carrying the entire House with hundreds of points
When you finally get to attend Hogwarts but everybody hates you because apparently you have a brother who did some dumb shit and to make things even worse Merula a.k.a. 80s Draco shows up 🙃
Merula be like
When you do well in class and you and the teacher* smile at each other
* Well not Snape he glares
When you run out of energy while fighting the Devil’s Snare
Me whenever someone calls me ‘Michele’ because ‘Michelle’ was for some reason not allowed
Me meeting Rowan, Penny and Ben
Me when I see my friends and favourite characters from the books (LET ME BEFRIEND TONKS ALREADY. AND VISIT HAGRID???)
Me when I see Merula
JUST 👏🏻 LET 👏🏻 ME 👏🏻 LIVE 👏🏻 MY 👏🏻 HOGWARTS 👏🏻 LIFE 👏🏻 IN 👏🏻 PEACE
Me when I see baby!!! Fang!!!
Me every time Madame Hooche says YOU’LL DIE flying gee I wonder why Ben’s afraid to fly 🤔
Me knowing I’m in the same year AND HOUSE as Tonks but won’t meet her until year 3????
Me when on the rare occassions Snape actually gives me points instead of taking them away??
Prefect: stop losing us points!! Also let me teach you how to duel against Merula even though that’s against the rules oh and let’s take revenge against the Slytherins* which will probably lose us some points too!!** You don’t want to do it??? WHY ARE YOU EVEN IN THIS HOUSE***
Me:
* WHAT EVEN FOR. I DON’T GET IT. WHY DOES THIS GAME HATE MY LIL SNEK FRENDS SO MUCH. WHAT HAVE SLYTHERINS DONE TO YOU JANE?? (also this is a sidequest for Hufflepuffs I have no idea what the other Houses get up to instead)
** I’ve just started this sidequest so I don’t know how it will end yet but I DREAD losing the points I worked so hard for because of you Jane
*** Thankfully I had enough courage points and I knew this would happen if I didn’t choose the ‘it should be me’ option but STILL. What’s your problem Jane??? Who’s the fake Puff here huh? HUH?****
**** Can you tell I don’t really like Jane
Are you playing Hogwarts Mystery? Can you relate to these gifs and memes? Any things I forgot about? Let me know in the comments!
This has been almost my exact experience so far. 😂
Glad I’m not the only one 😂
Omg those GIFs are so relatable 😂😂 I’m addicted but also fed up of running out of energy it’s a STRUGGLE (Muggle struggles aayy). I don’t think I’m as far through as you but I can guarantee I’ll be playing loads over the summer
Glad to be relatable 😂 Yeah it really is! I know it won’t stop be from playing though – 1) it’s Harry Potter 2) I’m just really invested in the plot and characters now haha. Also the creators said that at some point there should be dating options and they hinted at wanting to be inclusive so??? WE COULD BE GAY AT HOGWARTS EM
Yeah the plot is quite intriguing! Although if I don’t play for a few days then go back to it I get a bit confused haha. OMG OMG AHHH I NEED THIS!!!!
Also I’m low-key frustrated that I can’t afford glasses like not all of us have perfect vision!!
I know!! Also none of the glasses they offer look like mine? :( Like I literally have Harry Potter glasses come on 😂
I know, there isn’t much choice!! Haha that’s true 😂 also I don’t like that you have to pay for different hairstyles like none of the free ones look like my hair haha
Yeah! Also a lot of the hairstyles that are natural for POCs aren’t unlocked from the beginning AND cost gems? Like why
I knoww frustration, hopefully it’ll be inclusive in other aspects though
THIS IS SO ACCURATE IN JUST EVERYTHING! I think I just really wanna be friends with Bill Weasley more than Tonks for the moment hahaha but it’s so frustrating how slow everything goes. Energy is always out and then you have to wait 3 hours for a new story part to be accessible. If I were rich, I’d spend all my money on gems so that I could do whatever whenever I want to.
Oh yeah same, but I think I’m actually pretty close to befriending Bill? I think I’ve seen on Tumblr that you need to be in your second year to befriend him, so fingers crossed that we can be BFFs soon :P Tonks on the other hand I won’t even meet until my third year even though we’re in the same year and House? 😂 like where is she. is she skipping all our classes. does she not sleep in the dorm #theREALhogwartsmystery
It issss if this weren’t Harry Potter and I wasn’t already invested in the plot and characters I’d quit in a heartbeat 😂 Same! But now I’m just saving my gems for a scarf haha. Why does a scarf cost 200 gems 😫
I haven’t played for very long and am still in the middle of year one but I want to be friends with Bill … setting realistic goals and all. How does your common room look? I have always been wondering, but obviously only get to see my Ravenclaw one. It has a really pretty night sky ceiling.
I would totally pay for a game like this if it were a bit more evolved and I could play on my laptop without the waiting times. I just want a sims for harry potter, but with an open world option after the story is done (basically like the old HP games, just with your own characters and not the book/movie plots).
I just befriended Bill this morning! :) Mine looks like a Hobbit Hole haha. It’s super cozy. Oh that sounds so pretty!
Yeah same, I’m happy that a game like this exists, but I’d rather pay some money upfront and enjoy a full game than this! I LOVED the old HP games – I need to replay them at some point (and finish Philsopher’s Stone, I stopped playing years ago because I couldn’t beat Quirrel 😂)
Is he going to be your new dueling partner? Because I saw someone say that he is quite good at that haha I want to befriend him tooo. I just started Year 2.
I only had Prisoner of Azkaban myself as a game, but my cousin had the others. I found that the gameplay was easier for me in my version of the game, but I would just generally appreciate more games like that again.
Yeah he is! And it sounds like he’s going to join your gang and try to solve the mystery of the cursed vaults. Ohhh Prisoner of Azkaban was my favourite! I loved how you could play as Ron and Hermione as well
I NEED to get this game!! Why have I not yet?!
Ahhh you do! It’s really fun :)
Ok, I hadn’t really wanted to play, but I had to read this post? And now, now I just want to curl up and play all day. (BUT WORK) Also, I’m such a Gryffindor, I suppose you choose your own house, right?
Also, Hufflepuff taking revenge on Slytherin?!?! I want to see this!
Yeah you get to choose your own House! :) Haha I don’t think if you’re not in Hufflepuff you’ll see their revenge, but I have no idea how this subplot plays out for the different Houses.
This is a hilarious post! (Even though I haven’t started playing Hogwarts Mystery yet lol :) However maybe now is a good time to start since I’ve been rereading HP!)
I definitely recommend it! It has some flaws but it’s definitely fun :)

Haha! I LOVED reading this! The gifs were really fun and relatable! I’m in Gryffindor and Year 3! I really love the storyline and everything! I think pretty much the same thing happened to us!
My prefect’s also really annoying??? I had 200 house points and she was like earn more! Also when we were taking revenge against slytherin, I didn’t have enough courage and she was just like you coward!
And running out of energy is SOOO annoying! But there are some secret spots on each floor where you can get extra energy!
Thank you! I just reached year 3 as well :) Me too! I know the game isn’t perfect but I’m so into the storyline
Glad it’s not just us Puffs being stuk with the annoying Prefect haha. It sucks though, I hope that the next Prefect will be nicer lol.
Yeah I know! I wish there were more though, or that they’d appear more frequently. Though I am used to it know, it’s still annoying haha
No problem! Yay!! It’s definitely really interesting!
It does but now I’ve got Bill Weasley as my prefect!! I hope he doesn’t have to tell me off! 😂😂
Same! They should definitely make more!❤️😀
Haha I’m sure Bill will be a cool Prefect right? 😂
So far he’s great!
Please continue to post this stuff – I’ve got to know if you cast a full body bind on Merula.
I knew about this game, but haven’t touched it. I figured it would just be a put of frustration for me and I get enough of that from Pokemon Go and also life thank you very much. XD Glad you’re having fun!!!
Haha I might do a part two if I come up with more stuff! :P I did kick Merula’s ass twice in dueling, but no full body bind (yet)
Haha makes sense – I stopped playing Pokemon Go because it ate my battery, but I remember it being frustrating lol

I’ve just started playing this game a month ago and I’m really enjoying it so far. I chose Hufflepuff as this was my result on Pottermore and the sidequests have been great and very thematic (I loved “Something Sweet” in Year 2 where you can help a fellow Hufflepuff find sweets to thank someone with and also spend time discussing your favourite sweets). Jane’s pretty decent even though her “You’ve lost us House Points again !” spiel is a bit grating. I hope we can be Prefect when she graduates ! :D
Yeah Jane’s not that bad, but it annoys me soooo much how much she complains about my ‘lack’ of House Points when I have hundreds sdjfhd I haven’t played in a while because the game kept crashing A LOT but it’s fun! I do expect that we’ll be able to be Prefects in year 5 so I’ll be disappointed if we won’t haha
