Why Your Daily Quests Are Not Tracking in Harry Potter: Wizards Unite
Even though it’s a bit of a stretch, I used the new Harry Potter mobile game : Wizards Unite ( iOS , Android ) as a great excuse to get out and wander around. I’m kind of forced, as there is a daily achievement that you can only unlock if you walked through the wizard through your lungs area 0.25 kilometers.
I did it the other day – and used potions, and collected found items, and stayed in inns, and whatever else you need to do to complete the day’s achievements and collect that sweet eight gold reward. Imagine my surprise when I opened the Daily Quests game tracker and found that all my hard work was in vain; he did not write anything down.
I’m not sure if this is a bug or just a silly implementation of daily achievements, but I’ve read quite a few reports from other wizards who complain about the same thing. As it turns out, the game doesn’t keep track of what you are doing until you open the Daily Quests every day . This is very different from most games with a daily quest / unlock system that simply marks your progress as you, you know, play the game.
While the daily rewards for entering Harry Potter: Wizards Unite are more valuable than the daily quests, I know I would be annoyed if I wasted my precious rare ingredients (and hours) brewing a potion, just so that it doesn’t count. We hope Niantic will fix this fancy implementation in a future update.
