Harry Potter Cryptograms - Games Room

9 Jun 2025, 14:11

A cryptogram is a puzzle where a substitution cipher has been used to encrypt a message. To put it simply, each letter in the alphabet is replaced by another letter. The solver’s task is to decipher the hidden massage by figuring out which letters correspond with each other.

In this game, someone comes up with a cryptogram for a quote from Harry Potter and the next person had to decode it and come up with a new one.

Here is an example:

P1: ZQYYX VW ATDD
Q = O
X = Y
T= R

P2: Dobby is free
R VKBSCGBA VOSWZ R WC TH LK GK YKKP
C = M
G = N
K = O

P3: I solemnly swear I am up to no good
…

And so on

You can include as many or as few revealed letters as you want.

Edit: Make sure to put structure your hint like this: letter in the cryptogram = letter in the quote

I’ll start:
EDPEIKZ BPEEBW GWOOWE NOWJ’E ZAT XNBGAZ
B = L
E = T
Z = Y
