Introduction

Hello everyone, welcome to our Walkthrough for Chapter Three of Beyond Hogwarts: Volume One of Harry Potter Hogwarts Mystery. During the previous chapter, you arrived at the ROCC division via some unusual means.

You’ve met your future coworker Ruby Honeysuckle. After some exploration of your new workplace, you will discover that Olivia and Callum work at the ROCC as well. Now it’s time to meet with your boss.

You can start this chapter by doing story tasks. Go to the Break Room when you are ready. You will reflect that Callum mentioned the boss will be in the Break Room. You will see only one person in the room who is standing in front of the vending machines.

Ruby won’t have an impression that this is your boss. You can agree or disagree with her. This choice will have some minor influence on dialogue later.

You will speak with this person and both you and Ruby will present themselves. He will sarcastically congratulate you on how you solved the mystery of who the boss is.

He won’t be in a good mood since there are no more Jammie Dodgers biscuits in the vending machines.

He will present himself.

He’ll be very stern, saying that he will explain what you need to know, you will memorize it and then you won’t bother him unless you’re dead, dying, or the Jammie Dodgers have been restocked. You can reply in two different ways. He will like it if you choose the second option, but apart from that, this choice won’t have a significant impact on the story.

To listen to what your boss has to say, you need to earn five stars within three hours. Three stars are required to pass.

Bonus progress actions are tied to Ruby and vending machines. Prioritize these actions to save some energy.

Flump will mention that all you need to know is that he’s your boss, but not your friend. He’ll then ask if you have any questions. This choice won’t have a significant impact on the story, so feel free to choose the option you like. Flump will be very disinterested in answering any of your questions.

Ruby didn’t have any questions so Flump will be happy that the meeting is finally over.

The time will come for you and Ruby to find your new workplaces. Go to your Workspace in the ROCC Division to continue. Once you are there, Flump will ask you what you think about your workspace. This choice won’t have a significant impact on the story, because it seems your boss doesn’t show much emotion whatever you say. Pick the option you like.

Flump will point you out that your accommodations will level up as you do. Your next task is to get situated. You need to earn five stars within one hour. All five stars are required to pass.

There are bonus progress actions tied to your character and the office table. Prioritize these actions to save some energy.

You’ve found out that Flump read your file, and he knows all about you, including the Cursed Vaults, how you saved your brother and your father’s disappearance. He’ll mention that he reads all employees’ files, and you are not special, but he’ll admit that you are certainly more interesting. Your boss will also point out that ROCC has high expectations from you.

You will be confused about whether Flump likes you or not. He’ll just say that if he is your boss, that doesn’t mean he has to like you. You can reply in two different ways. This choice won’t have a huge impact on the story, but it is recommended to pick the second option.

The boss will inform you that you’ll be working with cursed objects in the Cursed Objects Division.

The boss will wish you luck and he’ll leave. Luckily, your break will start and you know who you want to meet. Go to the Ministry All-Purpose Room to visit your old friend Tonks. Tap on the speech bubbles if you are curious about what Olivia, Mr. Elton, or Herbert has to say. Tonks will be very happy to see you and she didn’t even know you work at the Ministry.

To catch up with Tonks, you need to earn five stars within three hours. All five stars are required to pass.

There is only one bonus progress action and it is tied to your character. Prioritize this action to save a bit of energy.

Tonks will share her troubles.

After you reassure her that everything will be fine, she will wonder where is your blue uniform, since you are working in Magical Maintenance. You will clumsily come up with some excuse, trying to hide that you work for ROCC.

Tonks will then ask you if you are happy. She will be happy if you are, so it is recommended to pick the first option.

You will share with Tonks that you and Ruby are not sure what to do next and that your boss is not fond of you. The following lines of dialogue will differ based on your previous choice.

You will have an impression that your reputation followed you to the Ministry. Tonks will make a joke on how to create more work so you can know what to do next.

Tonks will point out that the feeling of not knowing what you’re doing is rather universal for everyone who just graduated. She also has a hard time.

Because of this, you will get an idea to gather all Hogwarts friends.

Go to the Three Broomsticks when you are ready. You can tap on the speech bubbles if you are curious about what your friends have to say. You will meet with Andre, Penny, Tonks, Barnaby, and Murphy.

The conversation may look very different depending on whether Murphy is your friend or not.

After a conversation with Murphy, someone unexpected will appear. It will be Merula!

Merula won’t be keen to chat with you, but you will convince her to stay and chat for a while and see what she’s up to. To complete the next task, you need to earn five stars within eight hours. Three stars are required to pass. It is recommended to start this task when your energy bar is full.

There is one bonus progress and it’s tied to Murphy. Prioritize this action to save a bit of energy.

You will find out that Merula actually came to you for your Butterbeer order because she is working in the Three Broomsticks.

She’ll mention that this is her third job this week. You can reply to her in three different ways. If you like Merula, it is recommended to pick the first option.

Merula will leave you for a time and she’ll be back for an order later. Everyone will be surprised how frequently she changed her jobs. You will understand more about how adult life can be hard and unpredictable.

Speaking of unpredictability, Badeea will rush in and say that you have to go back to your flat straight away.

Go to your flat to continue the story. When you return, you will discover that a Toy Chimp is making a lot of noise.

Neighbors were complaining about the noise and a landlord was knocking on your door and when he met Badeea he explained the situation.

To try to shut down the toy, you need to earn five stars within three hours. All five stars are required to pass.

Bonus progress actions are tied to Badeea and your character. Prioritize these actions to save a bit of energy.

It seems that the toy doesn’t have a lever to be turned off.

Badeea will ask you what will you do with the toy. This choice won’t have a significant impact on the story, so feel free to choose the option you like.

Suddenly, you will remember what your boss Flump said about your new cases.

You will be sure that this is no coincidence and that this Toy Chimp is your first case to solve. Now that you have completed the story, you can start mandatory and optional chapter tasks. You need to complete three chapter tasks to unlock the next chapter. Go to the Three Broomsticks when you are ready.

Penny will want to go shopping with you in Diagon Alley, but this time you won’t be students with lists about what to buy. Now you could shop for whatever you want, and this will really excite her.

You’ll need to complete several objectives to finish this mandatory chapter task. Feel free to do them in any order you prefer.

While doing these objectives, it is recommended to select the duration that matches their star requirements.

Prioritize actions with bonus progress whenever they are available.

Try your best to complete all of the mini-tasks to earn some additional attribute points.

Once you complete all of the tasks, hit the Collect button and return to the Three Broomsticks.

After you complete all the objectives, you can claim the reward in the Wizarding World section of the Wizarding Life tab.

Two of the optional chapter tasks require five stars to be completed. When you complete two tasks, the third one will disappear. They are similar to classes in previous years. When you complete two tasks of your choice, the third one will disappear. When you are doing these chapter tasks remember to:

• Select the duration that matches their star requirements
• Prioritize actions with bonus progress
• Complete mini-tasks to earn attribute points

Your first optional chapter task is to stop by the Ministry of Magic.

Other optional chapter tasks are the “Take a Break” task which is a usual 5-star task and the “Catch-up with Callum” which is a friendship activity task. In both of them, you will chat with Callum.

This will conclude Chapter 3 of Beyond Hogwarts: Volume One. Hit the Collect button to claim your rewards. You will receive 400 coins and 2500 Experience Points.

You got your first case in ROCC. What secrets does your muggle artifact hide, and how did it end up at your flat? Find out in the exciting next chapter of Harry Potter and the Hogwarts Mystery.
