User Reviews for Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery

Awesome, but..

Ok so this game is amazing, it’s good for Harry Potter fans, and fun, but the reason I gave this a 4 star rating is because of two little reasons. 1: The energy. I’ve seen a lot of reviews complaining about this, and now I know why. 4 minutes?! That’s a little absurd. I’m just sitting on my couch waiting to get one energy, and I can’t even use it. Could you lower that down a little? Also, when I just can’t get anything done because of the energy, I need to wait 1 to 2 hours for the task thing to end. That gets annoying and I just exit the game and come back two hours later. That really gets annoying. I just want to play the game :/ 2: The gems. I can’t for the life of me get enough gems to buy anything. In the avatar store, you can buy things for coins, or for gems. I can’t, ever, get anything that I want from the store because all the things that I want, you need to have enough gems for. Also, when I get to finally earn gems, I only get like two or three. Anyway, that’s all from me, if you could fix the things I listed that would be great, but if not, I can deal with it. But for right now I’m going to keep this at 4 stars until you fix at least one of those things.Edit: So I’ve been playing this game more and I’ve noticed that you’ve added more events which get you more stuff, and I’m grateful for that. I’ll be changing this to a 5 star review. I absolutely LOVE this game, so great job.

Love it the game

Love this game play it mostly everyday, but I feel like it need a change. The change should be that the energy shouldn't be recharged for 1 every 4 minutes its just not fair. I think it should be less than that so that people could have more time actually playing the game instead of wasting the time to regain that energy to continue playing. I feel like I would enjoy this game a bit more because I don't have to wait to recharge to continue playing. Also feel as though there shouldn't be the necessary need to earn stars and waste more of your energy and time just to start a class to learn a new thing. There should also be an easier way to adopt all the animals that are requested for the side quests because getting the amount of books needed is unethical because you don't really earn them a lot within the game it self. Also think there should definitely be more better looking outfits that don't cost that much within the game. I hate wearing the same old boring cloths I have/have earned. I also feel like there should be more wand options as well or at least wand appearance. Seeing as though the answer you pick at Ollivanders is the same 3 answers/wands you get like everyone else. It doesn't make it as unique as one would like it to be Love this game but makes me not really want to play it as often as i want because of those things.

Cooking, but the waiting time…

First of all, I want to say this game is so beautiful, everything looks so cool and the way they move and everything happens is so awesome. It makes me so happy, it makes me feel like i’m really at Hogwarts. But a major flaw is the wait time is literally crazy, for example I’ll have to wait 8 hours for one quest, i finish that one in 5 minutes then i have to wait another 8 hours, so ridiculous. Another thing is the charging time for the lightening bolts take so long. It takes four minutes just to recharge one and that it takes me forever to get full, mostly if I’m not on the app. The timing is insane because it’s equivalent to a work or school day without me being able to do one quest is way too over stretched. I think it takes way too long, it needs to be reduced to maybe even four hours, but that’s still a lot in my opinion. I don’t understand the point of making us wait so long. It makes me wanna stop playing the game because at some point I just forget about it and I wanna play the game for more than five minutes at a time and then wait another 8 hours then i get to do another five minutes I mean it’s just too much waiting. I’m definitely not a fan of this and I really hope it gets to be improved. I love this game it makes me feel like I’m part of the Hogwarts castle I really love it a lot and I wish the time was just reduced, it feels unnecessary. I wish the BEST for this game and I 100% recommend it to harry potter fans!

So fun!

Honestly, this game is great! I have always been a person who likes games that have a lot of plot and storyline, and this game definitely checks those boxes. Making your way through your years at hogwarts, you make friends and enemies, increase your magical knowledge, and stumble upon some secrets along the way. The energy, however, can be frustrating at times. I never spend money on games, so sometimes it’s hard for me to complete classes or story parts. Also, once study sessions are introduced, the game gets a little frustrating. But, don’t worry! I struggled with that too because I was like “omg I hate these so much!” Because they really don’t do anything. But developers, can I just say how much better it is when you make the study sessions 6 stars instead of 9?! Even when you have multiple classes to complete, for me it just took a lot of irritation away. I would really appreciate it if you kept it as 6 stars for study sessions. It would be great, because progressing through the story is always so fun to me.If you ever end up ditching the game because it is just too annoying with the energy and study sessions, I recommend going back in and giving it another try because I did that for multiple weeks but now it’s much more fun. You kind of just have to be patient and persevering at some points, but once you do, Hogwarts Mystery is a blast for people who really enjoy being in the wizarding world!(Sorry for making this so long! 😅)

AMAZING GAME AM OBSESSED

i love this game so much and i am obsessed with it. i love how you can do side quests and be on the quidditch team and it has a different story than the main one and it doesn’t change what happens in the main story. the only thing i would change about the game is the amount of time you have to wait to get energy. four minutes is a lot of time to wait for ONE energy. if you’re gonna make the wait time that long, at least make the amount of time you can do the class or whatever it is you’re doing at the time. or make it like “wait four minutes and get two energy” or whatever. another thing is the waiting time for tasks. i’ll wait eight hours to do a task and i’ll do that task in five minutes and then have to wait another eight hours to do the next task. i know it’s good so that you don’t finish the game in a day or something but you wouldn’t even be able to anyways cause you have to wait four minutes to get energy. i love this game so much and have read all the harry potter books so i love that this game is set before the time of harry potter and that you’re in charlie weasleys year, (I LOVE IT SO MUCH CAUSE CHARLIE IS A BOSS) and i also love how you can do whatever you want to do and i just love this game so much. i DEFINITELY recommend getting this game. you won’t waste your time getting this. (and it’s free so it’s even better). i love this game so much. thank you for making it. whoever made this: you’re my hero.

It’s great until...

This game is very fun for Harry Potter lovers or people who are interested in witchcraft and wizardry. I have had this game for a while and enjoy it thoroughly, but there are some things that I think would be better if changed. First off, the energy. It makes sense that you need energy to complete tasks, but what doesn’t make sense is how long it takes. It takes 4 minutes to get one energy, which doesn’t do much, in the case that you need 3-5 energy for most tasks. I think that it would be better 4 minutes for 3 energy or something like that, or they could have it 2 minutes for 1 energy,if that makes any sense. The second thing that I think should be changed is redownloading it. I got the game and enjoyed the game for a while, then stopped playing it, due to the issue previously discussed. I was going through apps that I haven’t played in a while and deleted this app. I later got it back because I kept seeing ads for it and decided to try it again. I let the game load up, and it automatically resumed where I was previously. I wish that it would restart your game, rather then resuming it. My reason why is because I forgot what was happening in the game, so I wanted to see, but I couldn’t. That was quite confusing. I also had chosen the wrong house previously and tried to do it again, but because of this issue, my house choice was permanent. Also, if you chose the wrong action, you can’t go back and change it.

I’m absolutely obsessed!!!🌺

This is an AMAZING game!!! I love it so much and literally play it everyday. Although it is very interactive and fun and makes you feel like your an actual student at Hogwarts, there are some things I wish you could do. First off it is a bit frustrating that for some story parts of the game you have to wait about 8 hours to do. Second is that it would be nice if you could pick when you get to do the special events, like host the student from Beauxons, or befriend a werewolf. I am almost done with my second year and realized that I might not get to do “ Christmas With The Weaslys “ The last thing is that I am very confused about when you get to learn lessons that aren’t required to move on with the story. I was thinking the other day maybe that’s what you learn in your 7th year. Because in the little book icon were you see the lessons you’ve learned, there is nothing for year 7. This just some feedback that I hope will make the game even more fun than it already is. Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope this helps. I’d also like to add that I Love that you added the quittich option... I’m sorry if I spelled that wrong. I saw that there something new coming and I cannot wait to see what it is!!! I recommend this game to everyone, even if you are not a Harry Potter fan, and I think this game will make you one! 🤗

Love the game, but I have some suggestions

As a hardcore Potterhead, I love how Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery puts you into the world of Harry Potter! I absolutely love all the options and how they are always adding new customization options. With lots of hair colors, hair styles, clothing options, and dorm customizations, you can make the story YOUR own journey in the Wizarding World. I have a few ideas for upcoming updates. If you are uninterested in my update ideas, you don’t need to read the next paragraph. :D As I said, I have some ideas for future updates. 1: Friends. I know that Hogwarts Mystery already has computer generated characters that you can befriend, but I think it would be fun if you could befriend real people to do certain missions and events with. Me and my sister love to play this game but we want to play together sometimes. Like, in game together. 2: Energy. I think that you shouldn’t have to wait a full 4 minutes for 1 point of energy. Maybe like 1 or 2 minutes for 1 energy. In my opinion, it’s kinda ridiculous to have to wait a whole 4 minutes for 1 point of energy. And another thing is I think if you choose for your character to say something to keep them out of trouble (like telling a friend that they shouldn’t go somewhere) you could just walk away. Although this might mess with the way the story is so maybe not. Thanks for reading! Sorry it was so long.

HP, PJO, and HoO fan!, Jul 03, 2021

it’s ok

I recently re-downloaded the game after not playing it for a while. It is a fun game, I will say. But I only have a few problems with it. One is the amount of advertising it has in it’s own game. You have to pay for “Energy Orbs” or wait for like 2 hours. I usually don’t mind waiting, but the lessons in the game, for example, Charms class, only have a two hour limit, which means that you have two hours to finish the lesson, or you have to start over. Most of the lessons also require more Orbs than you start out with as well, which annoys me. Another problem I have is with the limits on the lessons, as I said before. They don’t give you enough time to completely refill your Orbs, making you HAVE to pay if you want to get “5 stars” on the lesson. Recently, since it’s Christmas time, I was invited to the Weasley’s for the holidays, and in order to get to the Weasley’s, you have to ask professors what their traditions are, ( Snape’s is enjoying a nice quiet snowfall on Christmas Day ) and then you have to learn spells and stuff to make gifts, and I knew it was going to take me a while, which is fine, but little did I know there was also a time limit on this one! It only gives you about two days, and if you don’t finish in those days, you just can’t go. And now I’m sad because I don’t get to see Fred and George :( I will say the game would be fun if you were willing to pay 30$ every time you wanted more Orbs to play. Thanks for reading, I usually never write reviews lol.

Glitches in the game and stingy with energy

I have the same complaint as everyone else in that, even at maxed out energy, you do not have enough energy to complete a task. Therefore, you have to wait four minutes for one energy. That amount of time is excessive to the point I wind up going to another game, or putting the iPad away and forgetting about it because I have to go to bed. I have made a purchase in the game. But, what I’ve noticed recently is that earned energy doesn’t show up in the total. For instance, I would have a full count of energy - 26/26 - but then, I would earn energy from watching a video or as rewards for completing tasks, and I would earn up to 3 energy, but the number never changed - it still showed 26/26. This has been going on for about two weeks now. Another thing that’s happening is when answering questions when having a meal with a friend in the great or or other places, I get the answer right but then get larger penalties that deduct what I just got for having answered correctly and then some. At the moment, I seem to be stuck in a never-ending loop of Flipendo. I’ve played it to completion several times, but then I’m just standing in the room with nothing to do and it never competes the task, it just tells me I have to finish and starts me all over again, which causes me to use up all my energy on the same task over and over again. Unfortunately for me, this game is becoming too frustrating to keep playing.
