Alright Potterheads and LEGO fans!
Have you lost yourself in the brick halls of LEGO Harry Potter: Years 5-7? Are you on the lookout for bonus levels or that tricky Voldemort token? You are not alone!
This guide is your map for the game. We will explore hidden bonus stages, shiny gold bricks, and missable trophies. This is your ticket to being a True Wizard in LEGO Harry Potter. No Floo Powder needed!
Bonus Levels: Gringotts and Gold!
Wondering if there’s more to LEGO Harry Potter: Years 5-7 than the main story? Absolutely! It is like extra credit, just more fun. Discover secret fun, the bonus levels in Gringott’s Vault.
Before rushing to Gringotts like you spotted a Hungarian Horntail, note a catch. These levels are like VIP rooms, and gold bricks are entry tickets. Each stage costs five bricks. This is an investment for block-smashing, stud-collecting fun. Players wonder how to beat bonus levels, like Bonus Level 5 or 6. Each poses unique challenges, so prepare your wizarding skills!
Gold Bricks: More Than Just Shiny LEGOs
Gold bricks! They are essential for any ambitious LEGO wizard. They unlock a richer LEGO experience. Here’s how to become a gold brick magnet.
Years 1-4 Gold Brick Bonanza
In Years 1-4, collecting all 200 gold bricks felt like finding the Sorcerer’s Stone! The reward? A gold statue of Chase in King’s Square that showers blue studs. Stud fountains? Yes!
How to gather such a fortune? Here’s your treasure map:
- Story Mode Domination: Each story level is a goldmine. Complete it for the first time. Earn “True Wizard” status, rescue the Student in Peril, and assemble the House Crest. That’s four bricks per level!
- Bonus Level Blitz: Beat all 10 standard bonus levels. Each is a brick waiting to be grabbed.
- Diagon Alley Deals: Diagon Alley isn’t just for wands. Secretly grab 12 purchasable gold bricks and look for 2 hidden ones. Shopping spree?
Total, Years 1-4 offer 200 gold bricks ripe for collecting. Get to it!
Years 5-7 Gold Brick Grab
Years 5-7 keep the gold brick chase alive but with fewer… bricks. Here, you can grab 24 bricks simply by completing each story level. Simple, right?
Unlockable Characters: Who’s Who in Your LEGO World?
A LEGO game isn’t complete without a big roster of characters! LEGO Harry Potter delivers well. Unlocking characters is a two-step dance:
- Token Hunt: First, find character tokens spread across the game world. Consider it a magical scavenger hunt.
- Diagon Alley Payday: After getting a token, head to Madam Malkin’s shop in Diagon Alley. Spend some studs, and BAM! New character unlocked.
Spotlight on Special Characters
- Dumbledore: Want to wield the Elder Wand? Dumbledore’s token is in his office. Then, go to Madam Malkin’s, and he’s yours.
- Voldemort: He Who Must Not Be Named… can be unlocked! To access Voldemort’s stage, collect 200 gold bricks. Also, you must spend 25 million coins at the character shop to play as him. Evil comes at a price.
- Arthur Weasley: The lovable dad and Muggle fan. Find Arthur’s token in Kreacher Discomforts. Smash kitchen wreaths, and his token appears. Kitchen chaos can pay!
- Mrs. Cole: The serious orphanage caretaker. In the back room, spot a canister by the sink. Use Dark Magic on it to reveal Mrs. Cole’s token. Dark Magic unlocks characters? Interesting!
