The actual work of learning this Spell begins after the story reaches the main quests in the game. Players need to work their way for around 5-6 hours after which they’ll probably come across the “The Caretaker’s Lunar Lament”. In this quest, the actual caretaker is a character named Galdwin Moon whom players will have to meet.

Whereupon Moon will task the players with finding Demiguise moons and disposing of statues that scare him. Upon helping Gladwin with this task he will agree to teach players the Alohomora for more tasks that he will assign you later on.

This is done through the minigame just like in the majority of RPGs. For the same thing to do in Hogwarts Legacy follow these tips.

  1. Rotate the green and red lights to sync the gears until they start spinning. This is the indication that light is actually in place.
  2. The green light in the outermost green ring will be in sync with the right gear that is placed at the bottom.
  3. In the same way, the inner circle has a red color which will correspond with the gear that is inside the wheel.
  4. The right combination of the gears will always be in sync with the cardinal position of the wheel.
  5. When that doesn’t work try changing the position of same every 45° which will surely get the job done. Because trying every combination will probably take a lot of time and might not even get the results or unlock the lock.
