Shortly after starting your adventure, you will receive an owl message from Jacob, informing you that there is a surprise on the way to your apartment. You should go and check it out. Proceed to the Flat when you are ready. When you arrive, you will think out loud about how good it is to have time for yourself before the holidays, especially with everything that has been happening to you recently. You will wonder how you will spend the holidays.

You’ll be very curious to find out about the surprise. Following that, someone will knock on your door. You will wonder who it could be, and at that moment, you will see your friend Bill, whom you haven’t seen in a very long time.

These lines will differ based on where you live.


You’ll thank him and express disbelief that he came, adding that you thought he was in Egypt. He will respond that he was indeed there and came back to visit you, also mentioning that he and your brother Jacob devised this surprise.

You’ll be curious to know if he is on holiday, and he will respond that he is and has managed to get some time off. He’ll also mention that his family and he have planned a last-minute vacation and would like you to join them. This line will differ based on whether you have completed your previous Christmas adventures with the Weasleys.

You’ll gladly accept his offer, and soon you’ll ask where you’re going. He will reply that it wouldn’t be fun if he told you directly and suggest giving you a few hints to see if you can guess. To complete the next task, you need to earn five stars within one hour. All five stars are required to pass. Since this task requires a lot of energy, it is recommended to start this task with a full energy bar.

The bonus progress actions are tied to Bill. Prioritize these actions to save some energy.

After finishing listening to Bill’s hints, you will deduce a few facts about the place. It’s somewhere very cold, out of the country, and where you will meet all the Weasleys. Following that, he will ask you if, based on that information, you know where you are going. There are three different options to choose from. The correct answer is “Romanian Dragon Sanctuary”.

In any case, Bill will say that you are heading to the Romanian Dragon Sanctuary.

He’ll say that, of course, you will see Charlie and tell you that you need to hurry, as there’s no time to waste. Then, he will mention that you have to go to the Burrow to pack up and be ready before the Portkey activates. You’ll ask if you need to bring anything, but he’ll say that you don’t need to and that you are enough. He will then suggest Apparating together to get there.

He’ll gladly accept, visibly surprised and happy about it. Shortly after that, you will successfully Apparate together to your destination.

Go to the Weasley House at the Burrow to continue the story. When you arrive there, you will be visibly surprised when you see your brother Jacob.

He will exclaim, “Surprise!” Bill will apologize for not revealing the second surprise, which is your brother.

You will thank them for inviting you to spend Christmas, and Mrs. Weasley will say that you and your brother are part of their family and are always welcome. Bill will playfully say that sometimes he thinks she loves you and your brother more than her own children.

Mrs. Weasley will tell Bill that if he has time to chat, he has time to pack. You’ll suggest helping them with packing, and she will say that she won’t turn down the help, especially since her youngest is taking her time getting ready.

To complete the next task, you need to earn five stars within three hours. Three stars are required to pass. Since this task requires a lot of energy, it is recommended to start this task with a full energy bar.

Bonus progress actions are tied to Bill and your character. Prioritize these actions to save some energy.

When you finish, there will be one more thing left to pack. Trace the wand movement to cast Pack.

The spell will work properly, and everything will be packed and ready.

Afterward, Mrs. Weasley will thank you for your help, and you will respond that it’s the least you can do, especially now that you know they’ve planned so many exciting things for your trip.

Mrs. Weasley will express her joy that you’re excited and then ask you what you’re most looking forward to in all of this. There are three different options to choose from. All of them will eventually lead to the same outcome, so feel free to take your pick.

Shortly after, Mrs. Weasley will say that she’s glad because you and Jacob will spend Christmas with them. At that moment, her youngest daughter, Ginny, will come downstairs.

When she sees you, she will be very shy and hide behind Mrs. Weasley.


Mrs. Weasley will tell Ginny that you make Ginny a bit nervous, and Jacob will playfully comment that you sometimes make him nervous too.

Jacob will then try to calm Ginny and introduce you.

She will still appear nervous and shy, and Jacob will comment that she just needs a bit of time to get to know you and relax around you.

Ginny will then ask Mrs. Weasley when her dad will arrive and mention that he’s running late. Mrs. Weasley will say that he’s taking longer than usual, and you will suggest going to the Ministry to fetch him since you have a Ministry badge. Mrs. Weasley will be very grateful for your offer, mentioning that there isn’t much time before the Portkey activates. Following that, you will head to the Ministry to bring Mr. Weasley as soon as possible.
Proceed to the Ministry of Magic when you are ready. When you arrive, Mr. Weasley will be visibly surprised to see you. On the other hand, Madam Umbridge will be slightly annoyed that you’re interrupting their conversation.

You will assure her that it’s because of Mr. Weasley, and you’ve come to get him to avoid being late for your holiday trip.

Madam Umbridge will say that Mr. Weasley cannot go anywhere until he finishes some additional paperwork.

Mr. Weasley will say that the paperwork can wait and that there’s no one around to review it anyway. He’ll also mention that everyone else has gone on holiday, and it’s just the three of you in the building. Despite that, Madam Umbridge will be very determined to finish all the paperwork before you leave. Following that, you’ll try to convince her to let Mr. Weasley go.
To convince Madam Umbridge, you need to earn five stars within three hours. All five stars are required to pass. Since this task requires a lot of energy, it is recommended to start it with a full energy bar.

The bonus progress actions are tied to your character. Prioritize these actions to save some energy.

After that, you will say that there are many reasons why she should let Mr. Weasley go on holiday.


In the end, you will succeed in convincing her. She will say that when Mr. Weasley returns, he must finish all the paperwork. Mr. Weasley will accept that, and she will leave. He’ll thank you, saying that you’re a lifesaver and commenting that you probably prevented him from having another argument with Madam Umbridge. There are three different options to choose from. These options will influence some dialogue that will follow, but they won’t impact the story.

He’ll say that Molly probably sent you to pick him up, and you will agree, mentioning that you volunteered because you had a Ministry badge with you. He’ll then suggest returning to the Burrow before the Portkey activates and takes you to the Romanian Dragon Sanctuary.
Go to the Weasley House at the Burrow to continue the story. When you arrive, Mr. Weasley will apologize for being late and explain that a fellow Ministry worker tried to keep him for the holiday. Fortunately, you were there to help him.

Mrs. Weasley will say that she’s glad you’ve arrived, and you will ask her if the Portkey will activate soon. However, she will say that it appears that she read Charlie’s note about the activation time wrong.

Mrs. Weasley will say that everyone’s a bit antsy to leave and express the hope that it won’t dampen the Christmas spirit. Following that, you will take a seat at the table where Jacob, Bill, and Ginny are.

You will suggest playing the Exploding Snap game.


Shortly after, you’ll start playing the game. To complete the next task, you need to earn five stars within three hours. Three stars are required to pass.

Bonus progress actions are tied to Ginny, Bill, and Jacob. Prioritize these actions to save some energy. Slide the screen left and right to check all available actions.

Jacob will comment that you and Ginny are tied for first place, and you will say that you’ve gotten a lot better at Exploding Snap since you played together as kids. Following that, he will ask if you’ll let Ginny win because she never has. There are two different options to choose from. The recommended option is to let Ginny win.

You will then tell Ginny that this is your last round, which will determine the winner.

These lines will differ based on your previous choice.


Following that, Mrs. Weasley will approach you and comment on how you are in better spirits now, mentioning that the Portkey is ready to activate.

You’ll accept and everyone will gather, and you will start the countdown.

After your countdown, you will successfully activate the Portkey.
