How to Solve the Bridge Puzzle

The Bridge Puzzle is actually among the easiest puzzles you will find in the game! To complete this puzzle, you just need to have a Fire Spell available, such as Incendio or Confringo.

  1. Begin by lighting all four of the bridge pillars with either Incendio or Confringo.
  2. After each brazier is lit you will want to check the diagram on the bridge floor to see the correlation between each number and each image.
  3. Next, you will want to match each brazier’s number to its specific image. This can be done by interacting with the brazier by pressing either F/playstation square button/button xbox x v2, depending on whether you play on a PC or a Console.

Once all four braziers are aligned, you will see a completion cinematic, prompting you with a new set of challenges, the Solve Hogwarts Secrets Challenge. Once the cinematic finishes, all you have to do is approach the new-found trapdoor on the bridge and simply descend the stairs!
