[Disclaimer: This walkthrough will feature the gameplay from the perspective of a Year 3 student. Since the adventure is available for students of Year 3 and above, the star and attribute requirements for certain tasks might be different for you, depending on your current progress of the main story.]

Talbott will suggest hurrying up since you need to learn the spell before the next electrical storm.

Learning the Animagus spell requires you to earn five stars within eight hours. Since all five stars are required to pass, it is highly recommended to have full energy before starting.

The only bonus progress action here is tied to your character. Prioritize it if you want to save as much energy as possible.

Once you are done, you will cast the spell and your chest will start glowing for a bit.

Talbott will explain that you need to perform the spell every dusk and every dawn until the next electrical storm.

Your next task is to talk to Professor McGonagall. Proceed to the Transfiguration classroom when you are ready to continue.

When you arrive, you will for the first time see Professor McGonagall change shape. This will definitely come as a surprise. She’ll wonder why you’re acting surprised. After all, it is a known fact that she is an Animagus.

You will then get to talk about Animagi. Completing this task requires earning five stars within three hours. Once you are ready, hit the Start button to begin.

There is an action with bonus progress tied to Talbott. Focusing on it should save you a bit of energy. 

When you are done, you will learn that Talbott is actually an Animagus, and an unregistered one even.

He’ll offer to tell you his secret over a game of Gobstones.

When you are ready, proceed to Clocktower Courtyard to meet him. Once you get there, you’ll notice that some of the characters have speech bubbles above them. Tap on those if you are curious to see what they have to say.

Afterward, Talbott will ask what kind of animal you would like to become. You have three different options to choose from.

Keep in mind that this choice will not in any way affect the animal type you’ll be able to turn into, so feel free to pick whichever one you want.

You’ll then have to defeat Talbott in a game of Gobstones in order to learn his secret. The recommended attribute levels for this task aren’t too high, so even if you are in the early stages of Year Three, you should still be able to complete this task.

As for the game itself, you have seven turns to earn three diamonds. If your attributes are high enough, you should be able to achieve this relatively easily. Below are the questions and answers for this task.

Talbott will tell you that his parents opposed the Death Eaters in the Wizarding War. They weren’t in the Ministry or any other organization, but they wanted to help regardless.

Talbott’s mother was an Animagus, and she taught him how to become one in case he ever needed to escape. Eventually, the Death Eaters came to their home, and changing forms helped Talbott escape. Unfortunately, his parents didn’t make it.

He’ll also tell you the reason why he didn’t register with the Ministry. 

You’ll calmly tell him that he shouldn’t worry about the Dark Lord too much. Still, you’ll notice that Talbott isn’t comfortable talking about it.

You will thank him for opening up and sharing his story with you. He’ll admit that it felt good to tell someone. He will even consider registering with the Ministry. Moments later, he’ll turn into an eagle and fly away.

This will also mark the end of Part 3 of Become an Animagus adventure. Hit the Collect button to claim your reward. You will receive 5 Gems.

Now you have pretty much everything needed for becoming an Animagus. Everything but one thing – electrical storm. When will it happen? Will you be able to do everything correctly when the time comes?
