There was no jug in my shelf. So I sadly couldn't play the rest of the room. But until then it was really nice.

Bloody brilliant. As far from Potions Class Semester Test as you can get, the former coming across as piecemeal and non-intuitive (yes, I know it was meant as a harder escape room; it still felt unsystematic).

Enjoyed the music, the riddles, and the cohesiveness of the room; an immersive snapshot of the HP universe in puzzle form. I had a little trouble ranking the students, but mostly because I forgot which houses some of them were in. Ranking Harry Potter and Seamus Finnigan was the most confusing, as they're in the same house, but trial and error prevailed.

I most appreciated the hints appearing in post-owl form, and the Easter egg via the floo network at the end. Testing the player's knowledge with HP trivia seemed very appropriate, well done. All in all, a tribute to the escape room community and great fun!

Thanks for that bug report George! I'll fix that ASAP. Glad you guys liked the room!

Hey brother thanks for the awesome room. Me and my gf really enjoyed it.

Id like to report a small exploit. It is possible to remove Both of the name tags from the box with the color splat spinners on it simply by crouching low and picking them up out of the bottom of the box

Here's the answer to the ranking list .

Never Figured out what the spoons were for LOL. Completed the entire room (including the secret room, and never used them. So not sure what i did or didnt do. But atleast i still completed the room! Still kinda wish I knew what the spoons were for in the drawer. I even watched the walkthrough and looked at every hint in the game just to check and never saw them used.

Great room! Actually found the secret room without the proper hint, fortunately I refused to leave the room after the end and managed to get back to the secret room and finish it properly. The ranking was a bit perplexing but I managed to go through it without a walkthrough, so it is not broken. Hope you do more HP themed rooms and thanks for the great job!

Was enjoying the room up until the point of the ranking board. Chest refuses to open, redid the room multiple times, even re downloaded just in case. Would of loved to get to the ending. Hope there's a fix for it!
TheRealTonyStark 20 May, 2023 @ 4:11pm 
I've got the nine rankings correct. I've even checked a solution online and the chest below it is not opening. -_-

Dear MelonVerse,

I am a designer of Escape Rooms in 'real life.' I am very interested in your escape room.
Would you be as kind as to contact me via Steam?
Kind regards.

Great room. Thanks for colour blindness option.

Great room, just a small issue: The carpet in front of the ranking board covers the sheets with names of the students sometimes. Played it together with a friend and wanted to drop the name-sheets for one of us to put them up while the other checks the cauldrons. Couldn't finish the room, because the carpet "ate" Seamus (reproducible problem. Next card dropped disappeared, too. Third card was fine.) Didn't make the room any less awesome, just wanted to let you know. Really great work.
ToeTickler 11 Dec, 2022 @ 3:22pm 
great room, it took some time to figure the rankings out but got there in the end! well presented and great for all those harry potter fans :)
MelonVerse  [author] 23 Nov, 2022 @ 8:01am 
It is not broken. Many guides are outdated because the room was updated. Make sure to check the description of my walkthrough video for changed steps.
Jaydubs 23 Nov, 2022 @ 1:38am 
A lot of people in here are insisting the ranking board is broken with the author insisting it's not. It is also broken for me. I checked that it was the correct ranking, took them out and put them all back in several times. The chest does not open.
MelonVerse  [author] 16 Oct, 2022 @ 12:18pm 
Yup you can find that out by solving the cauldron puzzle. Sorry you didn’t get that far! For the main escape you don’t need any prior Harry Potter knowledge.
Jiamil 16 Oct, 2022 @ 11:54am 
No idea which house belongs to which character without looking it up somewhere outside the game. Maybe I did not find something giving me more information on the houses people belong inside the game, but for me the experience was over at that point, sadly.
MelonVerse  [author] 11 Oct, 2022 @ 1:02pm 
Puzzle with the names does work! Try again and make sure to check the description of my video. Most are outdated.
PeePie 11 Oct, 2022 @ 11:39am 
map is brokey, finished all the puzzles but the puzzle with the names didn't work. Also looked for the solution online but that also didnt open the chest
Waifu1207 28 Sep, 2022 @ 7:55pm 
This room was so fun! I'm positive my 8-year-old would also get a kick out of it. Thanks for sharing this with us!
Chad McFearsom 28 Sep, 2022 @ 7:50pm 
My wife and I just finished this room, and the secret. She's a HUGE Harry Potter fan and we had a blast! Thanks a ton for taking the time to make this. It made our evening.

p.s. My wife was wondering if you misspelled "tentacle" on purpose as a clue. It turns out you didn't, but man, 10/10. Brought smiles to our faces!
MelonVerse  [author] 26 Sep, 2022 @ 6:30pm 
It is not broken! Check the code again.
Just Jules 26 Sep, 2022 @ 5:50pm 
I was playing last night and the chest would not open after I solved the ranking system. I tried twice and it would not work. I know I have the right answer :(
MelonVerse  [author] 24 Sep, 2022 @ 1:03pm 
It does! Just try it again.
Fae Panic 24 Sep, 2022 @ 10:17am 
Yeah, I tried the updated ranking, it still didn't work.
MelonVerse  [author] 24 Sep, 2022 @ 10:05am 
Read DESC of walkthrough for the updated puzzle! Says it when you click the link above and in the title of the video. 🤩
Fae Panic 24 Sep, 2022 @ 9:51am 
The ranking is broken. I've followed the walkthrough linked here in an attempt to just get it over and done with, but the chest just won't open. Bit of a shame.
MelonVerse  [author] 7 Sep, 2022 @ 2:11pm 
The ranking is indeed not broken. Are you sure you are doing it correctly?
Monark 7 Sep, 2022 @ 2:02pm 
I have the same problem as mystic dragon, the ranking board is broken
MelonVerse  [author] 27 Jul, 2022 @ 1:07pm 
All fixed!
MelonVerse  [author] 27 Jul, 2022 @ 11:08am 
Missing textures present, will be fixing soon.
MelonVerse  [author] 26 Jul, 2022 @ 4:46pm 
Thanks for letting me know!
TheJodake 26 Jul, 2022 @ 3:09pm 
I encountered a bug. If you place the mug in its place before turning on the spigot, the mug is deleted as soon as the spigot is turned on.
Cool map! Sorry I broke it.

Tried this room, and loved the atmosphere and music (and the puzzles), but was unable to finish it because the Ranking board did not work (checked a couple walkthroughs to confirm I had it right; I did, but the chest never opened).
Discombobulate 12 Jul, 2022 @ 12:19pm 
Ok, so i tried this room and it was amazing. It took me too long to figure out what do the owls behind the window mean, why are they here for. I was thinking its for the 6 colour dots. I cound't figure that out and when i was so helpless i pressed the hint button AND ONE OF THE OWLS FLEW TO THE WINDOW. I facepalmed so hard when that happened and soon after that found the correct answer to that part. The biggest problem for me was the ranking. I didn't solve that part even though i tried many times. The walkthrough i watched didn't help much because in the video luna was in hufflepuff and during my playthrough luna was ravenclaw. I tried both combinations and still no luck. I gave up on that and finished the room by going to the secret room.
golgoth.panda 8 Jul, 2022 @ 1:23pm 
Excellent room. Thank you MelonVerse.
50 minutes to finish it.
(Yes, I'm slow)
Deathmerc 21 Jun, 2022 @ 2:35pm 
One of the first user created maps I played and it was great! Love Harry Potter. Had to play it twice though because I was almost done the first time and it said I won when i found the Easter Egg, so played it again.
MelonVerse  [author] 16 May, 2022 @ 8:38pm 
Hey all! Just fixed the secret ending! Sorry about that.
MelonVerse  [author] 14 May, 2022 @ 3:55pm 
Hey thanks for reporting that! Just fixed it.
Jonny 14 May, 2022 @ 3:26pm 
Was fun, until we discovered that Seamus' nameplate wouldn't go in the wall. We were able to get all other students nameplates to snap to the wall except for Seamus' and we couldn't continue the room any further. :(
Urban Meat Loaf 13 May, 2022 @ 11:40pm 
Quite a fun room! Loved the easter egg of using Magic: The Gathering set symbols on the ingredient bottle tags.
MelonVerse  [author] 12 May, 2022 @ 10:05pm 
For now the secret ending is broken, I will be fixing it tomorrow, sorry for the inconvenience!
MelonVerse  [author] 12 May, 2022 @ 10:03pm 
Hey, the walkthrough needs to be corrected! Thanks for pointing that out for me.
Mystborn 12 May, 2022 @ 9:48pm 
I have all 9 nametags in the correct order (checked your walkthrough) but the chest won't open. I already have everything else done and I'm just missing the one book but the chest won't open :(
MelonVerse  [author] 11 May, 2022 @ 6:11am 
Hey thanks for your comments! I recently updated the game and must have forgotten to fix the puzzle. I will do so later!
jek777 11 May, 2022 @ 6:01am 
Nice room! But I have an issue or two.

The main issue is with the ranking, more precicely position 3-4-5.
The walkthrough shows LL as member of H that comes first (rank 3) and that is what opens the chest, but in my game the image shows house R that comes last (rank 5). Also HP and SF that both have blue have the same house G, so there is no way to order them other than trial and error. (It would probably be good if noone in the same house had the same color, but there are five G so that is a problem). This might be a work in progress, you posted something about Lunas house a few hours ago, but just in case it is a bug.

Also the documents are invisible from the back. I accidently dropped one and it was a bit difficult to find it again, since it landed upside down, and could only be noticed by the change of the icon to a hand.

Finally I want to say thank you very much for the color-blind-mode!
