Hogwarts Legacy Chess Puzzle Guide – How To Solve

How To Solve Chess Puzzles

1. Transform the first nearby object
2. Use Wingardium Leviosa on the object
3. Lift and set the object to “check” the opposite color
4. Get the chest to clear the Treasure Vault

Requires Two Spells

1. Transformation
2. Wingardium Leviosa

For you to solve the Chess Puzzles, you must first have Transformation and Wingardium Leviosa. These two spells are needed as you need to first transform a nearby vase and then lift it up and set it on the chess board. Note that you only need to “check” the enemy king to complete the puzzle.

If you get the correct answer, the enemy king crumbles and a treasure chest drops from the ceiling. Get the chest to clear the Treasure Vault.
