Level 9: Spongify
Defense Against Dark Arts
Class (2)
[9.1] Coming down from the spiral staircase of the
Gryffindor Common Room, Harry runs into Hermione.
Hurry, Harry! It’s time for our
Defense Against Dark Arts Class!
Harry’s in a grumpy mood this morning:
Not there
again...
It’ll be wonderful. Prof. Lockhart is going to teach them
Spongify! Follow Hermione to the Hall of Floating Ledges. She’s calling Harry
from upstairs:
Hurry! We don’t want to be late for Professor Lockhart’s
Class!
But Harry keeps on grumbling:
What do you mean “we”
?
Go up to the third floor and follow Hermione to the class.
The ever splendid Lockhart welcomes them all “to their favorite Class”.
Please,
hold your applause while we learn Spongify! Don’t let my good looks distract
you!
Try to follow the wand meticulously
Great work lad, you’ve completed all of the exercises! You’ve mastered Spongify! So now you can take the Spongify Challenge!
The Spongify Challenge
[9.2]
Welcome, Harry
Potter, to the Spongify Challenge. To complete the Challenge, you must find the
Completion Star, which can be found several floors above us.
In this 4th Challenge of our game you’ll start off
with 1,000 seconds to collecting 10 Challenge Stars and unveiling 16 Secrets.
THE ROOM WITH TWO GNOMES
Continue to the next room and on the downward ramp listen to
Prof. Lockhart’s explanation of how to use the Spongify Spell on the marked
carpets:
Spongify Carpets are hidden throughout Hogwarts. You can cast
Spongify on them and they will propel you to a higher area when you jump on
them.
You may either jump to a charmed Carpet, or stand on it and
do a standing jump. In either case the effect of the Carpet on the next high or
distant jump would be equal.
Go down the ramp and hop left or right to ground floor. Stun
and throw each of both Gnomes into the holes. Down the stairs between the two
Gnome holes a room with four Beans and a Gargoyle has opened. On the other side
flip the cauldrons and get more Beans.
Cast Lumos on the Gargoyle, run out, climb the centrally
elevated section and look up. You’ll see a ledge and an opening on your right.
In front of the opening a ledge charmed by Lumos is visible now.
The charmed high ledge
Cast Spongify on the Carpet and, facing the wall with the
opening, stand on the front right corner of the charmed Carpet. Jump high up and
press forward in the direction of the charmed ledge and Harry will reach the
edge.
Cast Lumos on this Gargoyle...
...Spongify this Carpet...
...stand here...
...and jump to the charmed ledge
Enter your first Secret Room and cast
Alohomora on the chest. Harry will retrieve his 40th
bronze Wizard Card #1: Merlin,
Medieval, most famous Wizard of all times!
Now Harry’s got 5 lightning meters!
Facing Glideroy’s statue, look at the wall on your right. There is a lighter wall section looking like an upside down letter “T”. Cast Alohomora on top of that sign.
Casting Alohomora
A second Secret Room has now unveiled; meantime a block has
emerged from the wall behind Harry’s back. Climb the block and jump to the Room.
Open
the chest with Alohomora and obtain the
silver Wizard Card #92: Xavier
Rastrick, 1750-1836, Wizard Entertainer.
(note: that should work fine but if you should miss the jump
and fall to ground level start from the central console and Spongify the Carpet.
Face the Star ledge and jump high on it. You will loose some seconds for your
Challenge though)
On that ledge you’ll seize your 1st Challenge
Star. Continue to the next room.
THE GREAT TOWER (1)
Enter this room and Gilderoy interferes:
Imps are vicious little creatures
Like Gnomes, you use Flipendo to knock them back, then you
can pick them up and throw them into a hole to get rid of them. Promptly stun
the Imp with Flipendo – they’re a lot faster than a Gnome.
Pick him up and throw him into one of the holes. Should he
not tumble in the hole at once give him a blast with Flipendo. Next, stun the
Gnome and throw him into a hole as well. Catch some Beans.
On your left side a door to a Secret Room has now opened. Go
in, cast Alohomora on the chest and capture a bunch of Beans. Go stand near the
central Spongify Carpet and look up. Waw! This is a towering Room full of
balconies! This must the place where the Completion Star must be found several
floors above Harry!
Awesome, this Great Tower!
Cast Spongify on the carpet, and face the Gnome holes when
you jump to the ledge above them.
TWO DEEP TRENCHES
Proceed and a door will close behind Harry. You’ll be
standing on a Carpet in front of a deep void. First walk on the narrow ledge on
your left and pick up the Beans. Climb the higher window ledge and cast Spongify
on the Carpet here.
Jump far to the opposite ledge by the window and catch three
more Beans. Turn left. Cast Alohomora on the gothic panel.
A secret entrance...
...to a Star!
Enter and seize your 2nd Challenge Star. Follow
the ledge with three Beans. Jump to the floating block when it arrives and ride
till the opposite ledge where you’ll hop off. Cast Alohomora on the chest and
enjoy some more Beans.
Ride the floating block again till the middle and hop to the
ledge on your left side. There you’ll catch Challenge Star #3. Turn around the
corner and save.
There is your Save Book
THE CHAPEL WITH THREE IMPS
[9.3] When you enter this place the
door will lock behind Harry. Go further and a cinematic sequence will show how a
Challenge Star is hidden on a suspended ledge on high.
Thereafter two of three Imps will attack very fast in here.
Quickly cast Flipendo on each of them before one can do Harry some harm. Should
one sting he’ll run off. Cast Flipendo on the runner and once again on the
stunned one.
Pick up one of them and throw him into the hole on your
right, next to the Ectoplasm. The third Imp may also arrive from behind the tall
block, so quickly stun the new one and cast Flipendo on the Imp that’s lying
down or has woken up by now. Throw them into the hole.
(Tip: should you fail doing this you may always re-try from
the save point and run to the block on your left side. Climb the block and try
to stun the Imps from there, then come down to throw one in the hole)
Notice a
Gargoyle higher up in his niche that has now opened.
Cast Skurge on the floor Ectoplasm. Jump to the smaller block
on your left side and from here into the Gargoyle’s niche. Grab the Bean. Cast
Lumos on the Gargoyle and hop down on your right and follow the wall to a narrow
section with a Choc Frog.
Cast Lumos on this Gargoyle...
...and find an enchanted wall
Eat the Frog and enter the
transparent wall into the Secret Chamber and cast Alohomora on the chest. You
will get the bronze Wizard
Card #81: Quong Po, 1443-1539, Chinese Wizard.
Turn around and from this position cast Flipendo thrice on
the tall block carrying the Flipendo signs. Return to the smaller block and
Spongify the Carpet on top of it. Cast Flipendo on the tall block from this
position, then launch Harry to the block. Jump and pull up to the next ledge and
Spongify the local Carpet.
Turn around and jump far to the suspended ledge with the
Star. The ledge will lower down and you can grab your 4th Challenge
Star.
Star #4
Turn around, jump to the ledge and take the exit.
THE HALL WITH FOUR CRABS
Cast Flipendo on each red bottle by the staircase going down.
Grab some Beans. Go down and a cut scene reveals the location of your next
Challenge Star high up in this Room. In the floor two trap doors will open and
four Fire Crabs appear out of the blue.
Four Crabs each in front of a hole
Go to the edge of the ledge and cast Rictusempra on each of
the two rear Crabs. Stay out of the target area of the two front Crabs and
continuously cast Flipendo on each Crab. You can get the Crabs in their holes
from here till each hatch locks them up.
Anyway, keep one or both rear Crabs on their back with
Rictusempra/Flipendo and take care of the front Crabs. Stand near a corner of
the ledge and cast Rictusempra on the corresponding front Crab.
Get it in its hole with Flipendo. Should one Crab remain,
jump down and finish the job from there. When all Crabs are in their holes a
Secret Room will open in the central trench.
Jump in there from the middle and
watch out for a deadly void up front! Cast Alohomora on the chest in the Secret
room and earn your silver
Wizard card #98: Dymphna Furmage, 1612-1698, Abductee.
Cast Spongify on the Carpet and do a far jump to the opposite
ledge by a closed exit door. Jump down and climb the front ledge once again.
Cast Spongify on the Carpet and stand at the front corner on your right for a
nasty and tricky high jump!
Jump high and when Harry is near his peak make a left twist
to the corner of the roof beam. Try to land on that corner, and not in the
middle of the beam. Should you fall off there you’ll end up in that bottomless
void of the trench.
Clearly you may also try to land on the right side of the
beam (in which case you’ll have to position Harry on the left corner of the
Carpet). In either case – left or right – you’ll drop on the floor should you
miss the beam.
Position Harry here...
...and perform a twisted jump
Standing on the beam and facing the wall, turn left and cast
Flipendo on the equivalent sign on the wall in front of you. A second beam will
emerge behind Harry’s back.
Flipendo on this sign...
...triggers a second beam
Turn around and jump to the beam. Cast Flipendo on the other
wall sign in front of you. A third beam slides out of the wall.
Flipendo on this sign...
...controls the third beam
Jump to the beam and... on to the ledge with the Star and
capture your 5th Challenge Star. Now the suspended ledge will lower
down in front of the open exit door. Continue around the corner and cast Skurge
on the floor Ectoplasm. Jump in the square hole into a small room with four
Beans on the floor.
THE MAUSOLEUM
Turn around the corner and stay on top of the stairs. The
first painting on the left wall seems foggy and has no particular image. Mmmh...
looks suspicious. Jump to it and it appears to be the camouflaged entrance to a
Secret Room!
An entrance
Inside open the chest with Alohomora. You’ll be rewarded with
some Beans. Return to the top of the stairs and look at the paintings on your
right side. One painting is upside down.
The upside down painting
Now the stairs will transform into a staircase that goes down
to a Secret Room with a chest. Turn around and cast Alohomora on the chest.
You
will obtain the silver Wizard
Card #52: Felix Summerbee, 1447-1508, Inventor.
Go up and enter the upper floor of a Mausoleum-like
building. Eliminate a Cornish Pixie with Rictusempra (there are actually two in
here). Turn right and jump down to floor level. Watch the other Pixie flying by,
you know how to get rid of it before it gets nasty.
Turn around and notice a room with three Beans on the floor
and a sign on the wall. Cast Alohomora on the sign and the wall panel drops into
the floor, revealing a room with a Gargoyle. Cast Lumos on the Gargoyle and
climb the blocks up to the second floor again.
Turn around the corner and cast Spongify on the Carpet. Jump
to the console. You’ll be landing on a charmed section of the floor hiding a
Carpet. Cast Flipendo on the tall block and that will go down in a hole to floor
level.
The charmed floor square
Flipendo on that block
Turn around, Spongify this Carpet and jump high on the narrow ledge under the circular stained glass window (press front arrow while jumping).
Up to the high narrow ledge
Take the Beans and face the Hall. Jump to the ledge on your
right from the corner. Cast Flipendo on a bottle containing some Wiggentree
Bark. The Bark will fall to the floor below.
Return and proceed to the ledge on the other side. Jump from corner to corner - it’s a tricky jump as well. Cast Flipendo on the bottle and some Flobberworm Mucous will drop down. You may pick up both items later on. Follow the ledge till the end and notice an “S” sign on the wall. Stand on the edge, cast Alohomora and open a panel in the wall.
Alohomora on the panel
Look down at a Secret Room with a Star. Jump in and take your
6th Challenge Star. The floor of the room will sink. Enter the next
room and take four Beans and eat the Choc Frog.
Go out and first pick up the Muke and the Bark shattered
around the console. Return to the first floor and cast Alohomora on the small
chest on a table for some extra load of Beans.
Go stand in the room of the Gargoyle and cast your spell
thrice on the Flipendo sign of the block. Jump on the block and from there to
the balcony and take your 7th Challenge Star. Save by the book.
THE GRAND CRYSTAL PALACE
[9.4] Harry reaches a higher ledge in
the great Tower. Spongify the ledge’s Carpet and launch Harry to an opposite
higher ledge. You’ll be snatching some Beans while describing your parabolic
path crossing the tower.
Along a path of Beans in the air
You’ll be hearing the farting sounds of a Fire Crab in the
next passage. Anyway, better cast Skurge on the Ectoplasm in there from the safe
location of this ledge. Go in and quickly cast Rictusempra twice on the giant
Fire Crab on your right. The door closes behind Harry.
Climb through the hole and grab a Bean. Cast Skurge on the
blob and climb into the next room with two new Ectoplasms. Cast Skurge on the
left one first and then on the right one and promptly cast Rictusempra on the
Fire Crab that was hiding in ambush behind this jelly. In this small room you
may catch two Chocolate Frogs and get a little healthier.
The alcove is blocked, so leave and climb to the opening that
was sealed by the other Ecto. Cast Skurge on the new blob and unveil a Spongify
Carpet. Spongify!
Jump on the carpet and Harry will be
launched to a distant wall with three Beans. Below you can see that Giant Fire
Crab crawling on its back.
Now enter the Grand Crystal Palace. Spongify the Carpet on
the lower ledge, jump on it and get propelled to the next taller pillar. Cast
Rictusempra on the Cornish Pixie.
Notice a second winged thing flying around in the Palatial
Hall. That’s a white Potter Owl. Aim at the Owl and cast Alohomora on it. That
will open a Secret Room higher up next to a suspended ledge with a Challenge
Star.
Aim at the Potter Owl...
...Alohomora will open a Secret Room
Spongify the carpet Harry’s standing on and fly up to the
next taller pillar. From this position steal a few secs from your Challenge
score and overlook this magnificent place.
Fly to the next pedestal...
...and get a splendid view!
Cast Spongify on this Carpet and fly up to the Star ledge.
Into the air and up to the Star!
This is Harry’s 9th Challenge Star. Turn right and
hop to the Owl’s Secret Room. Cast Alohomora on the chest and get a nice load of
Beans. Hmm…not so much gain for all that trouble.
Hop back to the ledge and jump down on the right side. Try
not to hit the Save Book for now. Turn around and go down to a lower ledge with
two cauldrons. Extract the Beans with Flipendo.
From here, look at the middle pedestal. See that bright sign
on the pillar? Remember that sign. Turn around and cast Lumos on the Gargoyle.
That will reveal three charmed ledges.
Three magic ledges
Go down the ledges and cast Flipendo on the pillar’s sign.
Two secret entrances in the walls slide down.
Two areas unveiled
Enter the opened room by the lowest
ledge and Spongify the Carpet. Jump and Harry will be all the way propelled to
the opposite room. Enter this Secret Room and open the chest with Alohomora.
Harry receives the silver
Wizard Card #97: Alberic Grunnion, 1803-1882, Inventor.
Use the Spongified Carped to propel back to the previous room
and return by the magic ledges to the Gargoyle. Spongify the Carpet in front of
the Gargoyle and jump to the ledge with the Save Book. Better save here.
THE LITTLE TOWER
[9.5] Enter the next room with a chest and two sealed
doors. When Harry walks up to the chest the floor will sink. Immediately jump
backward. Two giant Spiders emerge from their Flipendo holes and attack!
Quickly cast Rictusempra on each, then open the chest for Beans.
A devilish trap in here!
Each hole carries a Flipendo sign on the inside. Cast Flipendo on one of the signs, then go stand in that hole and cast Flipendo on the other sign.
Stand in that second hole
The floor will now be elevated and...
...Harry
stays down when the floor goes up
From here jump down in the hole and you’ll find a chest in a
Secret Room. Cast Alohomora on the chest and earn a well-deserved bunch of
Beans. Cast Spongify on the Carpet in front of the chest and jump high up to the
elevated floor.
Work your way all the way up again
Both doors are open now: a passage
and a Gargoyle have unveiled. Cast Lumos on the
Gargoyle and follow the opposite passage.
Go out, turn right and stumble upon a bottle of Wiggentree
Bark in the alcove on your right hand. Cast Flipendo and collect some Bark. Go
on and a metal door will close behind Harry. Keep that spot in mind.
Behind the corner you’ll see the Little Tower. First cast
Rictusempra on two flying Pixies. Jump on the central pedestal with the printed
footsteps and it will sink in the floor next to where a panel covering a
Spongify Carpet is sliding open. Turn left and cast Flipendo on the wall tile.
That’ll open a Secret Room with... four BB Beans.
Don’t forget to charm that sign
Go out and turn left where you may
notice a chest in the dark. Cast Alohomora and receive your
bronze Wizard Card #88: Celestina
Warbeck, 1917-present, singing Sorceress.
Spongify the Carpet and jump in the direction of the opening
higher up. Enter the room with the chest. If you cast Alohomora on this one,
you’ll get... Peeves!
So, leave that chest for what it is. Better cast Flipendo on
the bottle of Flobberworm Mucous and get it out. Cast Diffindo on the rope that
blocks the wheel and the bridge inside the Little Tower will rotate into a
horizontal position.
It also opens the exit door of this room. Follow a dark
passage and at the end turn right and immediately cast Rictusempra twice on a
giant Fire Crab. Cast Diffindo on the spider web on top of the ledge above the
crawling Crab. Cast Spongify on the floor Carpet and jump to the ledge.
Immediately cast Rictusempra on each of the two giant
Spiders. Music is getting pretty wild here too. Grab a Bean, turn right and
grab another Bean. Now the passage ends. Look down. That’s the metal door that
had closed behind Harry a while ago.
Jump down and return to the ledge in the Little Tower. Now
you may cross the bridge! You make first grab some Beans from the blocks on your
left side and go up again. Now cross the bridge and acquire your final Challenge
Star: #10. Go in and save by the Book.
THE GREAT TOWER (2)
[9.6] Harry must jump to a pillar
with a Spongify Carpet. Cross the couple of hammers to another pillar by a
well-timed Spongify jump.
Two pounding hammers
From the opposite pillar jump to the entrance on your right
and proceed to a tall and narrow Tower. Notice a shadow on the floor. Wonder
who’s shadow that is.
Look up and see how a spider web is sealing off the tower.
You may spot the Giant Spider waiting behind its web. That’s the one that casts
that shadow.
Cast Diffindo on the web. The giant Spider will drop down, so
immediately jump backwards and cast Rictusempra to stun it. Look up again and
cast Flipendo on a tile in the middle of a wall.
First Diffindo on the web...
...then, Flipendo on the sign
This will open a Carpet on the floor Harry is standing on.
Spongify the Carpet and jump up to the opening.
Jump to a Secret Room
Inside cast Alohomora on the chest
and obtain the bronze Wizard
Card #96: Hengist of Woodcroft, Medieval, dates unknown.
If you stand in the opening and look up on your left side
you’ll notice a similar opening in the wall. But it’s too high to jump to. Go
down and you’ll find out that a Spongified jump from the Carpet won’t reach that
height either. Guess we’ll need another entrance... Remember this entrance.
Proceed to a high ledge of the Great Tower from where you’ll spot the ledge with the Completion Star. Cast Spongify on the Carpet and...
...off you go!!!
Harry lands on the balcony... with a Carpet (???). Do not
take the Completion Star yet! Cast Flipendo on a tile which you will see above
the Star on the wall.
Cast flipendo on this sign...
...and a secret panel will slide down
Spongify this Carpet and jump to the unveiled opposite
entrance. There is no Carpet on this side, so you can’t return to the Completion
Star from here.
Inside the Secret Area
On each side stands a bottle with Bark and with Muke, get
these out with Flipendo. Further on, you’ll see a chest. Run and jump to the
Secret Room and cast Alohomora on the chest. Harry Will earn the silver Wiz...
hold on, sorry... some BB Beans (Arghh... is that all?).
Stand in the opening of this Secret Room, that is the one you
saw before but couldn’t reach. Jump to the lower entrance on your right and on
to the floor.
Proceed to the ledge with the Carpet,
Spongify it and jump back to the room with the Completion Star. Take the
completion Star!
The Weekly House Point Ceremony
[9.7] Some girl runs into Harry when
he leaves the Spongify Challenge area.
Harry, the Weekly House Point Ceremony is about to start! You don’t want to miss it.
Follow her to the Monumental Staircase. There are a couple of
Spongify Carpets in the area that Harry may wish to investigate first.
See that one on top of the stairs? Spongify! Now Harry jumps
to the high window ledge between the two tin armors. Grab some Beans and cast
Alohomora on the chest.
This one contains the
bronze Wizard Card #29: Archibald
Alderton, 1568-1623, Wizard Cook.
Enjoy some of the view too!
Still recall that Carpet near the Dungeons? Go down the
stairs and take a right. On the left of the table with the radio set you’ve been
in a Secret Room before.
Cast Alohomora on the “I” sign and enter once again. Cast
Spongify on the Carpet and jump high up to a ledge, meanwhile snatching some
Beans. Go in the Secret Room and open the chest with Alohomora. More Beans are
your award...
Look up...
...and jump in
Try to jump down when the Carpet is still charmed, but jump
next to it! Harry will take no harm. Now leave the Dungeons for once and for all
and ascend the Monumental Staircase. Go left to the House Point Ceremony Room.
Professor Dumbledore welcomes everyone to a 4th round into the Bean Bonus Room. Dependent on the number of House Points either Harry or Draco will enter. If you desire more house points for Harry’s House of Gryffindor, go play some Quidditch first!
Heh, better luck next time!
The Announcement (the Beginning of
the Outcome)
After that, Harry is standing outside the Ceremony Room.
Proceed straight and Ron will come running into Harry:
Hey Harry,
something has really upset Moaning Myrtle.
This time more than the usual. Ron could hear her wailing all
the way from the Hall of floating Stairs. And the corridor outside her bathroom
is floated again.
Harry gets a bit scared now:
You don’t think
someone else has been attacked, do you?
Anything could
have happened!
Come on, lets’ go see what’s up
So, follow Ron to the Hall of Floating Stairs.
After a game
loading proceed and Ron will call Harry from upstairs:
Come on, Harry!
But first go down to the basement and look at the four
Spongify Carpets on the floor.
Each one will propel Harry high up in
the Hall. Facing the chest select the middle Carpet and cast Spongify on it.
Harry will go way up and... snatch his
silver Wizard Card #89: Alberta
Toothill 1391-1483, Duel Winner.
Spongify!...
...and jump!!!
Coming down try not to land on the charmed Carpet or Harry
will go up again. Stop by the smoky cauldron under the staircase and mix all of
Harry’s extra Flobberworm Mucous and Wiggentree Bark into some more Wiggenweld
Potions. Then, save by the adjacent book.
Now let's head for...
Level 10
