Go to Dumbledore’s Office once you start the adventure. Professor Dumbledore will be polite and grateful for your arrival. He will inform you that he has an urgent matter requiring utmost discretion.

He will explain why he chose you. If you completed the Harry’s Troll Problem Adventure, he will add that to the list of your accomplishments.


You need to earn five stars within three hours to hear out what’s Dumbledore’s assignment for you. Three stars are required to complete this task.

All bonus progress actions are tied to Professor Dumbledore. Prioritize actions tied to him to save some energy.

You will find out that you’ll need to test some obstacles in Hogwarts. The Headmaster will point out something interesting.

He’ll inform you that you ought to work with professors Sprout, McGonagall, Snape, Flitwick, and Hagrid. Mentioned professors will be pleased to have you, a brilliant former student, to try to defeat their obstacles.
He will mention that time is of the essence and he’ll need to go to tend to a few matters himself. But before he leaves, he’ll allow you to ask him one question of your choice. Feel free to choose the option you like. Whichever you choose, the Professor won’t be too open to explain you finer details of his plan directly, which will add more mystery to the air.

After answering the question of your choosing, the Headmaster will inform you that you first need to assist Professor Sprout. Before you go, he will stress out how these tasks are important.


To continue, go to the Herbology Classroom. Once you are there, you will be surprised by the sight of overgrown Venomous Tentacula.

Professor of Herbology will explain that the first obstacle you need to pass is to walk to her, to the other side of the classroom, despite the dangers of Venomous Tentacula. You can react in two ways. Feel free to choose an option that is more fitting for your character.

Professor Sprout will remind you that the Venomous Tentacula expel venom, and have a fatal poisonous bite. These plants are also protected from spells, in case you have some ideas about burning them.

To complete the next task, you need to earn five stars within three hours. All five stars are required to pass.

Sadly, there won’t be any bonus progress actions for this task.
You will almost reach the other side of the classroom, but you will be running out of time.

You will realize that to get over the plants ahead of you, you’ll need to jump, but you won’t have enough reach. You’ll need to go higher and Professor Sprout will warn you that there are plants on the ceiling as well.


You will decide to cast Ascendio.


It will be risky, but luckily, you will pass the obstacle. The professor’s reaction will differ based on your previous choice.

You will discover that Professor Sprout had an antidote for the Venomous Tentacula’s poison whole the time.


The professor will be concerned that you passed her obstacle. If you can do that, she will wonder how she can make her obstacle more difficult.

You will decide to research more on the matter in the Library. Go to the Library to continue the story. Once you are there, you can check what students have to say by tapping on the speech bubbles above their heads.
Once you meet Professor Sprout, she will still admire how you passed her obstacle previously. Your reaction will depend on your previous choice.

She will point out how her research is important.

To successfully research more dangerous plants to use in Professor Sprout’s obstacle, you need to earn five stars within three hours. Three stars are required to pass.

There is only one bonus progress action and it’s tied to Professor Sprout. Prioritize actions tied to her to save a bit of energy.

You will learn that there are a lot of dangerous plants and three of them will catch your eye. The professor will ask you which one of these three will be the best option. The correct answer is “Devil’s Snare”.

Suddenly, Professor Quirrell will appear and interrupt your conversation.

He will recognize you because he saw you earlier. If you completed the Harry’s Troll Problem Adventure, this line of dialogue may differ.

Professor Quirrell will be very curious about your and Professor Sprout’s research.

You will successfully evade collaboration with him by stating that the research has just been completed and there are lot of work to be done now. After Professor Quirrell leaves, the professor of Herbology will thank you for all your help.

She will mention that you can find your next assignment from Professor Flitwick at the Training Grounds.
This will mark the end of Part 1 of the Protecting the Stone Adventure. Hit the Collect button to claim your reward. You will receive 200 Coins.
