▲ Ghosts, tenants who give up their operations every time, it is easy to know that this place is not normal with just keywords

▲ Within the quest, you can see the ever-changing internal structure and details that show that the development team has put a lot of effort into it.

Afterwards, if 1,500 galleons are paid to the mysterious witch who owns the store, users will dig into the dark secrets hidden in the store in earnest.
The progress of the quest is done by breaking through the puzzle dungeon in a unique space that changes every moment and confronting the culprit behind it.

▲ Although the difficulty of the puzzle itself is not very high, it is characterized by the fact that the aforementioned internal structure change causes confusion among users.

▲ The identity of the culprit is referred to as ‘Poltergeist’. It is a kind of being quite different from the ghosts in the world, and the representative poltergeist is Hogwart’s Peeves.

First of all, the puzzle part is mainly composed of gimmicks that require active use of Asio and Wingardium Leviosa, and a mysterious and bleak atmosphere, such as upside down or wooden dolls following the main character, decorates the whole.
As the completeness of the puzzle and dungeon design is very good, if you are enjoying the game with the PS version, it is recommended that you do not miss the quest.

▲ There are also enemies and boss monsters that appear only within the quest. However, it is regrettable that the pattern is the same as that of a troll in the end, even though the boss fight was specially designed.

▲ Once you’ve finished your business with the store, it’s time to find the evil witch who is the culprit behind it all. As a wizard of justice, use unforgivable curses confidently to punish the wicked landlord.

After breaking through all the puzzles, you can directly face the poltergeist ‘Pastidio’, one of the culprits of this situation, and proceed with the boss battle. Subsequently, if the owner of the store, the witch, wins, the protagonist can officially become the owner of the store.
As a benefit of running a shop, you are given the benefit of selling your own items at a 10% higher price. Although it is not a big benefit at the time of playing the quest, it is evaluated that the completion of the quest is so good that it is worth playing just by playing.

▲ The main character, who has a lot of work to do, has another role as the owner of Hogsmeade. Fortunately, the store is run by a house elf.

▲ The concept of the store is ‘selling whatever the main character brings in’, and in the game, equipment items are purchased at a 10% higher price than other stores.
