Sometimes Hogwarts Mystery looks like an actual game, but it’s not often. Maybe the point is to drive home the idea that money is magic in the real world. That’s certainly the case here, what with Hogwarts Mystery’s simple language and situations any school kid will relate to, but the constant demands for cash imply the kid in question must be Richie Rich.
