Hermione’s Shop

Her best friends betrayed her and vanished with the money. The bank demands repayment. Hermione's only shot is a run-down shop in Snape's old laboratory — and a counter where she'll be selling more than just potions.

About the game

Every flask is a decision

Behind the counter · minigame
Bathroom · in-game art

What would you do if your best friends betrayed you and disappeared with your money? That's exactly what happened to Hermione — so she turned for help to the school where she once studied. Fortunately, Dumbledore offered her the chance to open a potion shop.

But attracting customers is no easy task. She must work hard to keep them coming back — and avoid falling victim to debt collectors from Gringotts Bank.

The shop sits in a mysterious old laboratory that once belonged to Snape himself. What secrets hide within its walls? And what will our brilliant young witch do when pushed to the edge?
