We didn't exactly expect to be writing about Wonderbook: Book of Spells in the month of December 2022, but then Sony has been making some rather deep cuts with its still relatively new PS Stars membership. The company has announced what digital collectibles members can earn this month, and one is a throwback to the time of the PlayStation Move and the title that definitely wasn't trying to be Harry Potter. If you own Wonderbook, you now have this digital collectible.
Today's update also brings with it the Tyrannosaurus Rex Digital Collectible. This is the check-in reward for the month so all you need to do is play any PS5 or PS4 game to earn it.
For those looking to earn Points to exchange them for PS Store credit, this month's range of PS Plus Essential titles will give you 50 points. Just play any one of Mass Effect Legendary Edition, Biomutant, or Divine Knockout once they're available for free. To earn even more points, from 6th December 2022 you should play any of these co-op titles:

Ehh both of those activities show a completely different list of games for me, and I’m pretty you’re UK based too.
Two lots of points for just playing games already on Plus? That’s surprisingly fair. I like that they do that. They also gave points last month for just using remote play. It’s worth relatively little but will build up over time.
The collectibles are also quite nice.
Edit: just unlocked 50 points for loading up child of light.
@ChrisDeku Neither of the points-based rewards are live until 6th December.
It looks like the co-op list will be the next one after the current rotates, but it’s got 14 days left according to PSN, not 6, unless they’ll be available concurrently.
The PS Plus list is:
My Time at Portia
Ashen
Ys VIII
Child of Light
Hollow Knight
@LiamCroft I think that date’s a typo
@ChrisDeku I have this list, except The Messenger is also one of the games.
Love it.
got to say i forgot stars even existed
I don’t get how Sony track some of these “PlayStation & You” challenges. Like how do they know if you had a Wonderbook or a PS Eye etc? Then of course there was the PS3 one which they didn’t even give to people who had a PS3. 🙄
I own a copy of Wonderbook but my kids bought it for my wife and I never played it so unless Sony will accept a photo of me holding it on Twitter I doubt I'm getting anything.🤷
I am at level 2, can't remember why. This whole "thing" kind of seems to only be in the app, like Nintendo's My Nintendo Rewards rewards.
I actually almost got WonderBook for my kid at the time. The cost was astronomical for a game though.
@LiamCroft "...and the title that definitely wasn't trying to be Harry Potter."
Well it does say "From J K Rowling" right on the cover of the box so I it wasn't like they were trying to hide it.🤷

@VeldinX the majority of them seem to be 'play any game' so far, but you do seem to need to access the app and activate the 'challenge' to get it.
It would be nice if they gave me my points and collectible for buying God of War.
I also like how the December PS5 Store Picks says to buy God of War or some other titles for the 50 points. I wonder if they’ll give me the points if I just boot up the game. They really should’ve delayed this program until it was actually ready.
I got Wonderbook dirt cheap for my kids. They loved it!
@rjejr I know, it was sarcasm
@Balosi That’s only how to “redeem” it as it were. I mean how Sony give people the tasks in the first place. You will only get the Wonderbook one if you actually owned a Wonderbook.
@LiamCroft But I don't think that's how sarcasm works, it literally says on the back of the box it's from Hogwarts library and the world of Harry Potter. It's not trying to be similar, or not be similar, or be a clone or ripoff, it literally IS Harry Potter.
It's like saying - "God of War: Ragnarok" is definitely not trying to be a God of War game. How is that sarcasm? 🤷♂️
