Clue 1: Answers
Unseen Sequences
The wizard notices some markings on the wall but they disappear halfway through
each line.
They spot an open bottle of invisible ink on a table (which explains why some of the
markings are missing) so the wizard performs the Revealing Charm to make the invisible
ink on the wall reappear.
The markings seem to be a series of number sequences. Work out the rule for
each number sequence and then find the next five numbers for each one.
This is your answer for clue 1. You will need this after you

Clue 3: Answers
Magical Measures
A magical tape measure lies abandoned on a table. As the wizard picks it up, it jumps
out of their hands and begins to take measurements of the room while the wizard
stands and watches in amazement. Perhaps this tape measure will help find a way out
of the room!
The dimensions of the room are in the table below but the tape measure has recorded
these using different units. Complete the table with the missing measurements.

Clue 4: Answers
What’s My Mystical Number?
Noticing a broken Vanishing Cabinet in the corner of the Room of Requirement, the
wizard opens it and finds a slip of paper on which there is scribbled a riddle.
Read the riddle and select every number on the number square below that the riddle
eliminates to cross these numbers out.
At the end, you should be left with only one number: the mystical number.
Riddle
I have some magic digits: not one
or three but two.
I can’t be less than 51 or else this
wouldn’t do.
70 and all numbers greater are just
too large for me.
I’m even, so I don’t end in 9, 7,
5, 1 or 3.
66
In bingo games, my number has a
rather different name.
To help you solve this riddle, my
two digits are the same!
Clue 5: Answers
Time Turning and Totalling
The wizard notices how long they’ve been in the Room of Requirement and realises that,
if only they had a Time-Turner, they could go back to the past and stop themselves from
entering the room!
Instead, they think about all the times they’ve used a Time-Turner previously.
Time Interval
Past Time Present Time (The number of hours and/or
minutes between times)
This is your answer for clue 5. You should now have 5 numbers
that will help the wizard to escape the Room of Requirement.
