There are a load of different puzzles to solve in the Wizarding World of Hogwarts Legacy<\/a>, including those confusing door puzzles. Instead of pulling your hair out of frustration over these puzzle doors, let us tell you how to solve them all easily.<\/p>\n

Solving these door puzzles and unlocking them will definitely be worth your time. Each hidden room will be filled with treasures waiting for you to pick them up. Who doesn\u2019t like treasure?<\/p>\n

Each of these puzzle doors will have a different selection of symbols and numbers upon them, but once you know how to solve one, you will be able to solve them all. It\u2019s just a matter of knowing what each symbol is worth numerically.<\/p>\n

Below, you\u2019ll find out how to solve the Hogwarts Legacy door puzzle every time you come across one and what each of the numbers and symbols mean.<\/p>

Scattered throughout the long game\u2019s map<\/a>, you will occasionally come across a locked door you can interact with covered in numbers and pictures of animals.<\/p>\n

The animal symbols appear around these doors, too. You will need to choose the correct animal symbol on the rollers beside these doors to solve the puzzle and unlock the door. All you need to do to solve these puzzles is complete a maths question<\/b>.<\/p>\n

Solving the puzzle doors in Hogwarts Legacy will unlock them and reveal hidden rooms containing treasure chests for you to open. It\u2019s definitely worth solving every door puzzle you come across.<\/p>\n

Fortunately, solving these door puzzles is simple enough, even if it does look tricky initially. The game provides you the answers in a collectable clue sheet. Head to the top floor of the library annex and you can pick up a piece of paper telling you that each animal symbol is worth a number between 0-9.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s say you\u2019ve found the door with a number 17 in its top centre circle surrounded by the number six, a picture of a crab, and a question mark. Your job is to find out the value of the question mark and use the roller on the left of the door to select the correct animal symbol. In this instance, the answer is the lizard\/newt as that is worth six. Essentially, six + crab (five) + lizard (six) = 17. You will need to figure out, too, whether each puzzle is an addition or subtraction question.<\/p>\n

Each animal symbol in the Hogwarts Legacy door puzzle has an assigned number. As stated above, you can find a cheat sheet telling you what each animal is worth. We\u2019ve put this cheat sheet in the image above for you. Bookmark this page and come back every time you come across a puzzle door.<\/p>\n

Alternatively, the symbols are worth the following numbers:<\/p>\n

  • Owl<\/b>: zero<\/li>\n
  • Unicorn<\/b>: one<\/li>\n
  • Dragon<\/b>: two<\/li>\n
  • Hydra<\/b>: three<\/li>\n
  • Demiguise<\/b>: four<\/li>\n
  • Quintaped (crab)<\/b>: five<\/li>\n
  • Salamander (lizard\/newt)<\/b>: six<\/li>\n
  • Octopus<\/b>: seven<\/li>\n
  • Spider<\/b>: eight<\/li>\n
  • Snake<\/b>: nine<\/li>\n<\/ul>

    The animals always appear in correct numerical order around each door frame, too. Starting with the Owl in the bottom left, stretching around to the Snake in the bottom right.<\/p>\n

    Alternatively, if you wish to not do any maths for yourself, you can watch this handy video from YouTuber ESO showing you the location of each door, the exact location of the cheat sheet, and how to solve each numbers and symbols riddle:<\/p>\n
