Approaching the door, you’ll see a mysterious design with a mathematical equation appearing upon interaction. Fortunately, it’s a straightforward arithmetic task. Symbols by the door represent numbers from 0 to 9. There are also two question mark devices nearby.

To solve these puzzles, you must decipher clues on the doors, determining which creature symbol corresponds to the answer in the circle’s center. To do this, you’ll need to learn the value of each symbol, which requires finding a puzzle-solving clue.

Where To Find The Puzzle-Solving Clue

Before you start solving the arithmetic equations on any of these doors, you will first have to find the puzzle-solving clue located just in front of one of these mysterious doors near the Library Annex, as shown in the image below.

Upon reaching the bridge on the map, enter the building directly in front of it. Inside, turn right and ascend the stairs. Continue upwards via the spiral staircase.

Take a right at the first opportunity, leading you to a room with an attic ambiance. Follow the corridor until you encounter another right turn. Go right again, where you’ll find one of the puzzle doors. The puzzle-solving clue is positioned right in front of this door.

This concludes my guide on the Symobol Door puzzle in Hogwarts Legacy. Not only do players have the option to live out their fantasy by being a part of the Harry Potter universe themselves, but they can also choose whichever path they want. Whether they want to serve the light or join the darkness, if you want to serve the latter, consider reading our guide on unlocking all unforgivable curses in Hogwarts Legacy.

But before you learn these high-level spells, you may want to shift your attention to learning other well-known ones, such as the Flipendo, Incendio, and Alohomora spells.

But that’s all from us. I hope our guide helped you out. Hogwarts Legacy is available now on PS5, Xbox Series S/X, and PC. Let us know your thoughts about the game in the comment section below.
