Year Six, Level Six: The Horcrux and the Hand

In this level you’ll need a Regular Wizard, Dark Wizard, Bag Character, Strong Character, and Deluminator Character.

First Time

Start off by using Dumbledore to Apparate across. Lift up the rock to make some stones appear and get to the other side. Use Diffindo on the wall to light the torch and get a ladder. Go forward a bit, use Lumos on the vines, and have Harry unlock the box. Follow the stairs down, put the correct pieces on the panels, and walk through the cave.

There are five purple rock-ish things throughout this area; using Wingardium Leviosa on each of them will give you the Gryffindor Crest piece. One is near the entrance on the side closest to the screen. Pull down the cord to make the bridge to get across, where you’ll find another. Go down the stairs and look to the left for a third, then go forward to find another on the opposite side. The final one is to the left of the bushes in the water. After collecting your crest piece, pull the bushes out and use Parseltongue on the puzzle. Use the broom on the four spots on the ground and copy the patterns to get a boat to ride to the next area.

Go to the top of this rocky area and have each character stand on one of the circles. Go down to the area that has now been unlocked, pick up the tank, and place it on the platform. Stand on the next two circles to unlock the next area. Place the final piece on the tank. Starting from here, this is probably one of the most difficult parts of the entire game. You must switch between Dumbledore and Harry, using Dumbledore to drink the water while Harry blasts away the zombies that are coming toward Dumbledore. It will definitely take a while to get the hang of, but once you’ve got it, it’s fairly easy to do.

Next up, you’re back at Hogwarts. Fill up the tank with Aguamenti, then head down the path toward Bellatrix and use Aguamenti to put out the flames. Put the handle onto the tank to put out the large flames. Head down this path where you’ll be able to rescue the Student In Peril by shooting the Death Eater that is torturing him in the foreground. Go down the rest of the path and duel Snape to end the level.

Free Play

After Apparating at the very start of the level, use a bag character on the pink plate. Empty it into the water and a fish will throw the Ravenclaw Crest piece out into the water for you to get. You can also get the Professor Dumbledore character token here by using a Dark Wizard to destroy the object on the wall near the cave entrance.

The Slytherin Crest piece can be obtained near the end of the second area. To the right of the Parseltongue puzzle is a large snake with an orange handle on it. Use a strong character to pull this handle to get the crest.

Use Dark Magic to destroy three rocks in this area, preferably before the zombies begin to attack. You can find one on the back wall and one in each of the areas that unlock after standing on the circles. Doing so will earn you the character token for Tom Riddle (Orphanage).

Use a strong character to pull the handle near Bellatrix for the Hagrid (Wedding) character token. Use a Deluminator character to carry the light between the two lamps, then move the lid off of the trash can for the Hufflepuff Crest piece.

Congratulations, you’ve finished Year Six: The Half-Blood Prince!

Year Six, Level Five: Felix Felicis

In this level you’ll need a Regular Wizard, Dark Wizard, Key Character, Digging Character, Bag Character, and Weasley.

First Time

You can start off by earning the Gryffindor Crest piece– all you have to do is use Wingardium Leviosa to help five yellow flowers grow. One is behind the plant up ahead, while another is to the right of the greenhouse door. Move the buckets away to gain entrance to the greenhouse; there you’ll find another flower hanging on the wall. Go back to the plant on the right where there is another flower. While here, use Aguamenti to fill the tank, then shoot the plant inside twice. Go to the left and use Lumos on the vines, then use the spray bottle to get the plants off the door and go inside. You’ll find the final flower on the back wall here. In the back corner you’ll find a Spectrespecs dispenser. Use Reducto on the metal around it, put the Spectrespecs on, and use them on the spot directly outside of this room. Shoot the box you’ve made until it breaks open, giving you the character token for Professor Sprout. Use Reducto on the lock of the cage, then shoot the plant twice. Go into the other greenhouse. In the top right corner, there should be three small barrels to use on the plant in the center. After using all three, a different plant will be revealed; shoot it twice, then go outside and shoot each of the red flowers off of the larger plant. It will recede into the ground, allowing you through.

Use Reducto to destroy the silver rocks and walk up the log to get a quick cutscene, then you’re back in action. To get the cauldron, you must shoot the mole in each place he pops up. After he flips the cauldron, shoot him one last time to get the Fang character token. Go back down the log and use Diffindo on the wall to get a popsicle, the first of three ingredients. A bit to the left of the cauldron you’ll find some yellow flowers, and by clearing them away you’ll find another ingredient. Head a little further down this path to find the final ingredient on a spider web, which can easily be knocked down by shooting it. Add it to the potion, assemble the pieces, and carry the object up to Aragog’s body. Place it on the ground while you use Lumos on the vines and assemble these pieces, then pick the object back up and place it here. Go to the right and move the plants out of the way, then use Fang to dig up the spot for the other piece. Place it on the tap and jump on it to end the level.

Free Play

In the greenhouse where you can get the Spectrespecs, there is a vault immediately after walking in. Use a key character on this to get the Slytherin Crest piece.

There is a pile of Dark Magic rocks near the Diffindo wall. Move them out of the way, then use a bag character to get a box to shoot, giving you the character token for Hagrid. Near where you get the spider for the potion, there are some rocks to use Dark Magic on. Dig up the spot and build a scarecrow to get the Ravenclaw Crest piece. On the wall here is another object to use Dark Magic on, but this is one of three. The other two are behind Aragog’s body and near the Weasley box. Getting them all will unlock the Hufflepuff Crest piece. Use the Weasley box and empty the trash can to rescue the Student In Peril.

Afterward

All you have to do is follow the ghostly trail up to Dumbledore’s office and you’re onto the next level.

Year Six, Level Four: Love Hurts

In this level you’ll need a Regular Wizard, Key Character, Digging Character, Strong Character, Dark Wizard, Weasley, Deluminator Character, and Mechanic.

First Time

Here you’ll be looking for three ingredients to make a potion. Turn the knobs on either side of the fireplace to get the first, then break the metal object on the table to get the second. The third is more complicated: there is a piece of sheet music on the table in the back; put it on the piano. Then fill the jug using Aguamenti and put the other sheet onto the piano. Play the piano to make the two people in the painting dance and throw you the final ingredient. Drink the potion to start a cutscene, then you’re back to the same place. There will be some pieces scattered on the ground; put them together and raise it up to bring down a chandelier. Use Reducto on it to smash a table and get a key, then use it to unlock the cabinet in the back of the room and browse through to save Ron.

A quick duel with Draco, then you’re onto the next part. He’ll hide in a stall, while it’s your mission to get him out. First, fill up the boiler with Aguamenti. Use Pigwidgeon to go through the tunnel, then tilt the beam. Assemble the pieces, destroy the stall door on the right, and pull the handle to get Draco out. Duel him one more time to move on.

Now you’ll be in the Room of Requirement with Ginny, making yet another potion. Shoot the lock on the jumping cabinet for the first, use Diffindo on the wall to reach the second, and fill up the tank and have Arnold knock down the final one. Pull the handle to get through, then use Reducto on the silver object and use the pieces to knock down the Weasley box. Use Ginny to get the portable swamp, easily destroying the barriers ahead. Use the next Weasley box for a firework, which will knock down some pieces that can be built into a phonograph. The next barriers will turn into instruments and play music, then self-destruct, allowing you through. Use Aguamenti to open one side of the curtain, then use Diffindo on the red wall to make an anvil to open the other side and end the level.

Free Play

Turn the knobs on the fireplace, use Aguamenti on the fire, and use a digging character on the spot to get the character token for Ginny Weasley. Use Reducto on the object underneath the painting to reveal the vault. Use a key character to get the Ravenclaw Crest piece. Pull the orange handle on the chest by the piano and build the skeleton for the Professor Slughorn character token.

While Draco cowers in the bathroom stall, you should see an orange handle attached to the sinks. Pulling it will give you the Hufflepuff Crest piece. Use Dark Magic on the cart around the corner, by the tunnel, to save the Student In Peril. Behind this cart is a lamp; use a Deluminator character to move the light from this lamp to the one above the sinks near the orange handle to get the character token for Draco (Suit).

After pulling the handle at the start of the area, use a mechanic character to fix the case here. Next to the harp, after using the portable swamp, is another case, but this time you must put it together. Before moving on, use Dark Magic on the harp to put the person in the painting to sleep and get the Slytherin Crest piece. The final case is right after destroying the instruments; use Wingardium Leviosa to clean it and get the Gryffindor Crest piece.

Afterward

Follow the trail, then use Aguamenti on the plant in the courtyard. Go into the Herbology classroom to start the next level.

Year Six, Level Three: A Not So Merry Christmas

In this level you’ll need a Regular Wizard, Dark Wizard, Mechanic, Deluminator Character, Strong Character, Key Character, and Digging Character.

First Time

You’ll start off in the Weasleys’ garage, looking for clothes to put in the washing machine. While doing so, you can find the Ravenclaw Crest by shooting the four ducks in the area. There is one on either side of the long tables (coming toward the screen), one on the table in the middle, and one in the top right corner. Now, you can get to finding the clothes. Shoot the lock off the closet and remove the spider web to get the hat. The shirt is on the left table, near where the duck was. Have Arthur fix the vacuum on the table, then put the pieces together for the pants. Put them all into the washing machine to gain access to the next area.

Remus Lupin, as a werewolf, has the ability to dig and pull orange handles when transformed. Use these abilities to your advantage and dig up the orange handle to the left, then place it on the shed and pull. Put on the Spectrespecs and use them on the spot to the left to get a handle. Place it on the object next to the Spectrespecs dispenser and turn the handle for the Molly Weasley character token. Then, use the Spectrespecs on the area to the right to make a tank for the vehicle. Jump on it and use the hose to put out the larger flames. Go to Arthur and build a showerhead so he can get out. Carry the wheel to the vehicle and have Arthur fix it, then drive it to the left and repair the machine here to save the Student In Peril. Take the vehicle to the other side and put out the flames here to move on.

Use Remus to dig up the spot, then use the shears to cut down the bushes. Go as far to the right as you can and dig up the spot here to get the character token for Tonks (Pink Coat). Use Lumos to remove the vines from the handle, then pull it. Go toward the Death Eaters to reach the final area.

Shoot the Death Eaters and throw back whatever Bellatrix tries to hit you with, then shoot her to make her lose a heart. Whenever Fernir Greyback shows up, you can either avoid his attacks, switch between two characters and shoot him while he attacks the other, or try to fight him using Remus. Continue this cycle until the end of the level.

Free Play

Use Dark Magic on the TV in the garage for the Slytherin Crest piece.

During the fire in the Weasleys’ yard, in the area where you rescue Arthur, use a digging character to fix the tunnel. Have a character use their pet to crawl through the tunnel and knock down the basketball, then put it through the net for the Hufflepuff Crest piece. Also, by using a Deluminator character to move the light between the lamps and ride the fan, you can earn the Bill Weasley (Wedding) character token.

After pulling the orange handle in the field, go around the corner and dig up the spot to get a Spectrespecs dispenser. Build the drain to get an Apparition point, then use it to reach the vault. Use Lumos on the vines and a key character to unlock the vault for the Gryffindor Crest piece.

Afterward

The trail will take you to Charms class, where you’ll be learning Reducto. Destroy the four statues on the ground floor (you don’t have to destroy the pieces that come off of them; those are just for some extra coins), then use the staircase to reach the balcony and destroy the final statue. Now you’ve earned Reducto and a Gold Brick.

Now head to Dumbledore’s office, where you’ll see a short cutscene, then follow the trail to the next level.

Year Six, Level Two: Just Desserts

In this level you’ll need a Regular Wizard, Dark Wizard, Deluminator Character, Bag Character, Book Character, and Strong Character.

First Time

Go up the stairs nearby and shoot the duck on the wall, then shoot the cabinet and place the cup on the table. The second cup can be found in the keg to the left of Madam Rosmerta, Finally, shoot the panel in the doorway on the far right and place the cup with the others for the Gryffindor Crest piece. Pick up the duck and give it to the man in the painting on the left then place the handle on the keg. Give it to Slughorn to move on.

In the back of the room, there will be some coins shaped into an arrow. Shoot the table underneath them and assemble the pieces to make a sink. To the right of the table, use the boot to clear away the garbage from the table. Then use Wingardium Leviosa to clean the dishes and scrub the table.

Now you’ll be working with Luna. Remove the lamp from Hermione’s head. She’ll run to the plant; get her down by levitating the pumpkin onto it. Take the pot off the table and she’ll knock into Neville, causing two handles to fall. Put them on the curtain, then open it to exit the level.

Free Play

In the Three Broomsticks, use Aguamenti on the fire in the fireplace for the character token for Cormac (Suit). Use Dark Magic on the door up the stairs for a secret area. Jump on the couch for the Madam Rosmerta character token. Use the Deluminator to move the light between the two lamps, build the bricks into a pad, then use the bag Hermione’s bag to get the Ravenclaw Crest piece.

In Slughorn’s room, pull the handle to the left of the painting in the back of the room. Give the hat to the wizard in the painting for the Slytherin Crest piece.

Use Dark Magic on the door on the right during the party to gain access to a secret area. The Hufflepuff Crest piece can be found here by turning on the five lamps. Use a Book Character to open the bookcase and build the gargoyle for the Student In Peril. Use the plate on the ground and put the anvil on the curtain, then build a Spectrespecs dispenser. Use them to build a painting and turn it around for the Harry (Christmas) character token.

Afterward

Follow Sir Nicholas to the Charms classroom, where you’ll be learning the spell Aguamenti. This spell can be used to fill tanks and put out small fires. Put out the small flames, then fill the tank nearby and use it to put out the larger flames. Use Hermione to solve the puzzle and carry the object over to the other tank. Fill up the tank and go up the stairs. Fill the tank here to put out the flames in the painting. The wizard will give you another tank to fill and water the flower. Use the key to unlock the box and save Professor Flitwick. Now you’ve unlocked Aguamenti and a Gold Brick.

Follow the trail onto the Hogwarts Express to start the next level.

Year Six, Level One: Out of Retirement

In this level you’ll need a Regular Wizard, Dark Wizard, Key Character, Mechanic, Bag Character, Weasley and Digging Character.

First Time

Start by going around the corner and using Lumos on the vine, then put the pieces together for an Apparition point. Use Dumbledore to Apparate across, break the lock, and shoot the lawnmower to the left of the orange handle to let Harry through. Open the garage door, then open the trunk and start collecting ingredients. Shoot the three barrels to the left of the garage door for the first, shoot and put back together the bird bath for the second, and turn on the sprinklers in the left corner for the third. Drink the potion and pull the orange handle to get inside Slughorn’s house.

Move the piano and put the handle on the door, then open it and go inside.

Have Slughorn use Reducto on the two pieces in the back for a picture. Fix the lamp and shoot the fireplace underneath for a broom, then sweep away the pieces to reveal a second picture. The last one can be found by putting the chandelier back onto the ceiling. Place each picture on the table to the left.

Now you’re back with Ron and Hermione. Go up to the scares and shoot the green discs flying around. Another character will lift the clown’s mouth while you shoot the target, granting access to the right side of this floor. Have Ron use the Weasley box and put the firework together, then go down to the first floor and put the lid on the case to open the door and end the level.

Free Play

To the right of Slughorn’s house is a hedge-framed alley. Use Dark Magic on the gate to get through, then put on the Spectrespecs and go to the first Apparition point where you’ll find some blocks to put together. Use the shears to cut the flowers from either side of the gate and shape the hedges into a gnome for the Ravenclaw Crest piece. To get the Slughorn (Pyjamas) character token, you must shoot five gnomes scattered throughout the first area. Some are simple and easy to reach, such as the one in front of the gate before turning the corner to Slughorn’s house, the one on the roof of the garage, and the one sitting by the post at the start of the level; others are more difficult, like the one in the alley where you get the Spectrespecs and the one found by using Dark Magic on the gate in Slughorn’s yard and opening the vault with a key. Use a Mechanic to repair the tractor on the far right by the Apparition point, then ride over the five patches of grass in Slughorn’s yard for the Gryffindor Crest piece. Use a Digging Character to dig up the patch in Slughorn’s yard, then use a Bag Character to use the plate and shoot the flower for the Milkman character token.

Use Dark Magic on the door in Slughorn’s house to open a secret area. Here the Slytherin Crest piece can be unlocked by using Aguamenti to fill the shower with water. You can also find the character token for Dumbledore (Cursed) by shooting the bathtub and shelf, then shooting the bubbles and putting the pieces together to build a toilet tank. The token will appear after flushing the toilet.

After shooting the green discs, use Dark Magic on the rocket to the left and use the Weasley box. Go to the right and climb up the wall using the Sticky Trainers. Use the Apparition plate and use Diffindo on the student in the box. Then put the box back together to unlock the Student In Peril. While you’re here, use Diffindo on the red wall and put the pieces together, then ride the object for the Hufflepuff Crest piece.

Afterward

Hop on the Hogwarts Express and, once stopped, Luna will give you a lesson on Spectrespecs. Put them on and use them to build the armor and hammer to unlock them and earn a Gold Brick.

As always after learning a new lesson, you must put your skills to the test to open the gate. Use the Spectrespecs dispenser and assemble the pieces near the gate, then levitate the clock to make it open.

Follow the trail to the classroom corridor, put on the Spectrespecs, and build two weights to open the door and earn a Gold Brick.

Since this is Potions class, you’ll be searching for ingredients again. Match the wizards’ heads and bodies in the front of the room for the first ingredient. Put together the pieces in the lower left corner and put on the Spectrespecs, then use them in the lower right corner, shoot the fridge, and make the fire for the second ingredient. In the very back of the room you’ll find a Parselmouth puzzle; use Harry to solve this and add this final ingredient to unlock Draught of Living Death and earn another Gold Brick.

Follow the trail to the Grand Staircase. Put on the Spectrespecs and use them to build another section of stairs. Go up and use Diffindo to break the wall, then build a bell. Behind the wall is a Gold Brick and character token for Zacharias Smith. Shoot the bell for another staircase. Use Ron on the Weasley box and put the firework together for another section of stairs. Pull the two cords to make it up to Dumbledore’s office.

Now you’re in a flashback scene of young Dumbledore and Mrs. Cole. Keep heading forward, using Mrs. Cole whenever you need a vault unlocked. Switch to Dumbledore after letting him up, putting the piece on the boiler to make the fountain work. Put together these pieces to make a vault, use Mrs. Cole to unlock it, and go through the revolving door. Head up the stairs and put the pieces together using Dumbledore, then use Mrs. Cole on the vault to get across. Place the piece on the table here to allow Mrs. Cole through. Put together the remaining pieces and head through the door. Have Mrs. Cole open the vault at the top of the stairs and go through the door to unlock Slughorn vial and a Gold Brick.

Follow the trail outside. Use Focus to shoot the cloud on top of the student’s head, then shoot the gray rocks to the right and hand the spoon to the student to get the key and open the gate. Follow the trail to Hogsmeade and into the Three Broomsticks to start the next level.
