Akatori: Walkthrough Part 4 – Amber Forest

Saad Bin Asif

In this walkthrough, we’ll cover Akatori‘s Amber Forest sequence.

Mako and Akatori make a visit to the Amber Mines to learn more about the world. In the process, we repaired a pump to drain all the water in the mines, allowing us to explore it further. After a hectic fight with the Sea Serpent, Mako and Akatori received Akatori’s key from the rock bottom, but as they returned to the castle, a thief stole it.

Chasing The Thief

After the thief steals Akatori’s key from you, he will run away instantly. However, to find his location, use the map and follow the trail. Swim underwater and go right to reach a huge room. However, the door to the objective’s location is locked.

To unlock it, first go bottom left and hit the lever behind a wall by throwing your spear. Then, go bottom right and open the next lever. With this, the main door will open. Move right and rest on the Guide Stone if you would like to.

In the next room, cross the elevator and throw your staff at the lever beyond the door to open it. Keep moving forward and climb the platforms while defeating the enemies. There is another Guide Stone here, so rest up and head to the top left to reach the objective.

This will lead you into a closed corridor. Use the staff to climb it and open the next door; it is a shortcut. From here, go top right. Stand on the moving platforms to avoid the crystals, and at the end of this room, jump on the platform and dodge to avoid the incoming electric panels.

Follow the path until you exit the caves and find two Amber Soldiers in an enclosed building. Throw the staff to attack them, then go right. Jump on the platform and move ahead while defeating the enemies, then you will enter a room with another teleporter that will take you to the Amber Forest.

Amber Forest

As soon as we teleport to the Amber Forest, we see the thief with his leg broken. Mako interrogates him about the Moth Key, and according to him, he stole it to give it to the military, as they would reward anyone who lets them into the Moth.

To reach the Moth, the thief gives us his glider. See the wind geysers? We can use the glider on them to climb above, and that is where the Moth is. Stand on the geyser and hold Ctrl to take out the glider and fly away. Once you’re in the next room, keep going right while using the glider to fly above the crystals.

In your path, there will be a merchant. If you’d like to buy something, then take your time. Once you’re done, continue moving top right. There, interact with the telephone to converse with an unknown individual who tries to explain how Amber was formed, but Akatori tells Mako to drop the call.

Suddenly, new wind geysers will form in the room. Now, go left by using the geysers and reach the room above you. Hold onto the bamboo stalk and hold A to use it as a slingshot to cross the huge gap to your right. Grab the other bamboo stalk, then hold D to reach the top left of this room.

There will be a moving bubbly platform that passes through the crystals regularly. If you stand above it, then you will be hit by them. So, stick to the platform’s right side using your spear, then drop down into the bamboo stalks; there are more crystals below, so be careful.

Manuever with the three bamboo stalks to reach the next room above. You will find another merchant here. After talking to him, go left to find another bamboo stalk. Climb it and reach the platform to the left, then jump right and defeat all the enemies.

Here, you will meet a new enemy: the sniper. It’s hiding in the bushes to the top right; its laser will reveal its location. Before it shoots, go there and defeat it. Now, climb the bamboo stalk and go top left. Drop down the congested hallway with the crystals using your glider, then go left and climb back up.

Always use your map whenever you’re confused about the next objective’s location. In the next room, go top right to find a hidden area with numerous enemies. There’s an Amber Crystal at its bottom, so take it, exit the room, and go left.

Take the moving bubble platform and make your way to the bottom left of this room. Avoid the crystals using your glider, then climb the walls to reach the upper area. Go right, climb the platforms, go left, then go above to enter the next area.

Use the two wind geysers to go above and to avoid the crystals. Move right and jump above the locked room with a soldier to find a bamboo stalk. Use it to jump far left, then climb the other bamboo stalk to reach a platform to the next room.

Talk to the merchant, buy items of your choice, and go left. Climb the platforms while defeating the enemies, and reach the top until you hit a locked door. Talk to the mysterious individual about it on the phone, and they will tell you to go under the platform near you for a hint.

Drop down into the newly opened area, and get ready to be ambushed by multiple enemies. Defeat them all, then keep going downwards. To your right is the military base, where the current objective is located. But if you go left, you will open up a shortcut to the last merchant.

So, open the shortcut, then return to the intersection and move towards the military base. Keep going right until you reach a massive tree. Climb it and go into the next room above you. There is a Guide Stone right at the beginning, so use it if you have to.

The top left of this room is blocked, at least for now. Go right to another room, and then use the wind geyser to fly above to reach the Military Station. However, nobody is there. To get everyone’s attention, hit the bell in the middle, and the boss of the mini-boss of this area, Major Major, will arrive.

Major Major

Major Major is a gimmick boss who relies on their comrades and will try to hit you with their sniper while hiding in the bushes. In the middle of the arena, there are three platforms, and the boss will regularly swap their position on top of them.

First, take care of the boss’ comrades. Then, focus on the three platforms in the middle and attack Major Major wherever you see them.

Repeat this process for a moment, and you will be victorious in no time. Major Major drops the key to the Moth. Pick it up, then continue your journey.

Journey to The Moth

Unfortunately, the previous path is blocked by a wind geyser, so you’ll have to take the longer path now. Go right from the Major Major boss arena and drop down the tree with crystals while avoiding them. Glide all the way down until you find a room below.

Here is a small puzzle with three levers that rotate three giant wheels, forming a path. However, it might take a while to learn their positioning. If you’re struggling with it, please check the image below to solve it efficiently. Go through the newly formed path, jump above the wall at its exit, and keep moving left until you return to the building with a soldier near it.

From here, it’s time to reach the top of the forest until you reach the Moth’s locked door; check the map. When the door to the Moth is opened, go right and climb up the platform to reach the upper parts of the forest. In this area, use every bamboo stalk to jump to the higher ground. Now, go left until you find a platform with a keyhole. Interact with it to reach the highest point in all of Akatori.

There, you will meet with Bato, the mysterious individual behind the phone calls. Talk to him, and with this, our third major boss fight begins.

Bato – Boss Fight

Bato is a monkey-type boss who jumps around the multiple platforms available in the arena. As soon as he jumps, he creates a circular shockwave that will damage you if you stay too close. After he jumps the fourth time, he’ll remain stationary for a moment, and that’s your cue to attack him.

Hit him multiple times, and he will climb up the vines on the roof. From there, Bato will throw explosive balls that you have to avoid. Move around the arena using the platforms, and wait for him to come down. Repeat the process until he reaches 50% HP, then a cutscene will begin.

Bato will express his hatred towards Mako and Akatori, and the second phase of this fight begins. This time, Bato is invulnerable to all your attacks because he has a shield covering him. Now, we have to rely on a certain gimmick to defeat him: the panels on the platforms.

See the colors on the screen above? Hit the panels on the platforms in that color order (Red, Green, Blue). Some of the panels can be locked momentarily if Bato decides to jump on them, so play a little defensively, and when the time is right, hit the panels to defeat him.

Before he passes away, he drops a lore bomb: Akatori is Mako’s father. Mako becomes mad at not telling her earlier; he had his reasons. As they talk, Bato passes away, and a circle opens on the ground. Interact with it to unlock a new skill: Air Attack.

So, break the floor and exit the Moth. With this, our Akatori Amber Forest walkthrough comes to an end.
