Escape From Ever After – Chapter Four: The Icefall Chronicles Walkthrough

Patches seems to have a lot of knowledge about the company, and he has been to the real world before. So, as per his intel, there is a secret area in the Forbidden Library where you can find a book that takes you to the R&D Department, where you will find the LexiChip that gives your company ID real-world access.

Find The Secret Entrance In The Forbidden Library

Head inside the Forbidden Library and move forward. Once you reach the area with the moving platform, Patches will mention that the hidden room is somewhere here. Jump on the moving platform and head north. Then, go up, and to the north, you will be able to see a crack.

Use Patches’ smash ability to open the entrance to the hidden section.

Explore The Hidden Section Of The Forbidden Library

Open the chest at the northeast corner to get an Ink Bottle, and then follow the path ahead. Save the game and keep moving forward. Shortly after, you will have to solve the block puzzle. This may seem really complicated, but it is not.

Move the green block to the far right side, then move the red block to the far north. Next, move the green block to the left until it reaches the pressure plate. After that, move the red block south and shift the green block slightly to the right. Do not move it all the way, so it does not obstruct the red block.

At this point, the left bookshelf should prevent the right one from moving north when you move the red block north. If it does not, repeat the same method until it works. This should not be too difficult. Once it works, move the green block to the far left side, then move the red block north. After that, move the green block all the way to the right.

Finally, move the red block onto the pressure plate, then do the same with the green block. With that, the puzzle has now been solved. From the left side, follow the path up and then right. Activate the lever, go ahead, and open the chest. Inside, you will find a book called The Icefall Chronicles. Inside the book is the R&D Department, which is where you need to go.

Starting Chapter Four: The Icefall Chronicles In Escape from Ever After

Now that you have the next book, it is time to start the next chapter. However, be warned that once you head to the next location, there is no going back. So, if you want to do anything else, make sure to do it before you teleport. Explore the castle, upgrade your attacks, and buy anything you want.

Ride The Spaceship

When you are ready, head over to the Telepager and teleport to The Icefall Chronicles. Once you arrive, head right, pick up the space suit and helmet, and then get inside the ship to reach the R&D Department.

While riding the spaceship, Mr. Moon will contact you after being notified that you are betraying the corporation. Patches then tries to take control of the ship, and you will be warned to escape via the escape pods. As you land on the planet, everyone will be separated.

Explore The New Planet And Find Your Friends

Head right to proceed further. You will notice a red plant-like object ahead. Use your buckler to hit it, move forward, hit it again, and keep proceeding. Defeat the enemies ahead, then hit the red plant to move forward.

Using the green roots, hit the red plant again, and then continue right. Keep going right, and eventually you will reach a dead end. When that happens, look below, and you will see a moving platform.

Hit the red plant to fall down onto the moving platform, but make sure to time it correctly. Keep moving ahead, and you will eventually come across a save machine and an alien. In the house right next to the vending machine, you can find Wolfgang, but he will be sick.

Where To Find Good Berry For Wolfgang

To get the Good Berry that is supposed to heal Wolfgang, head right and go up the stairs. Then go right and use your Buckler to hit the berry on the tree. You will then get the Alien Berry, so take that to the alien, and he will tell you that you need more berries.

The path to the right will open now, so head there. Fight some enemies along the way and keep moving to the right. Eventually, you will come across another copy machine and find Patches. You have reached the R&D Department, so now it is time to save Patches.

How To Save Patches

As you go ahead, the guard will stop you and ask who you are. It does not matter which option you select; you will still get identified, and a battle will start. Defeat the enemy, head right, and then go up the path to the north. After that, head left and activate the lever.

This will open the entrance to the R&D Department, so head inside, follow the path to the right, and eventually you will find Patches, but he is in a laser cell. From there, head right, and you will notice there are switches for each of the cells. You need to activate the switch of cell number three to save Patches, but for that, you need to find a different route.

Find A Different Route To Activate The Switch Of Number 3 Cell

So, instead of trying to activate the switches, head right while avoiding the lasers, and eventually, you will reach a guard. Defeat the enemy, and you will get the key to the gate in the Glaxius IX Facility. The door to the right cannot be opened as it has no power, so head left and open the locked gate. There is a gem on the north side, so pick that up before going up.

Then go up and head left to activate the switch of cell number three. Then save Patches, and now, with his help, you can unlock cell number one to find an Ink Bottle.

Exit The R&D Department And Find More Teammates

Once you have exited the R&D Department, head right and then head up the path from the north side. Now activate the red plant using Flynt’s Buckler and then hold the smash button. You can leave the smash button, as you just have to press the button again to activate it. After that, head up to the left side, and once you are up, press the smash button.

This will unlock a path for you on the north side. Go ahead, activate the red plant, and hold the smash button near it. Then head left and go up the red roots. Press the smash button and then activate the green plant on the left side.

Now it may be a little tricky, but you have to activate the red plant at the right, go down, hold the smash button near the plant at the bottom, go up, hit the red plant at the right again, go up further, then hit the smash button and follow the path ahead.

Solve The Puzzle To Find Eva

Now, another pretty complicated puzzle will appear. Hit the red plant and hold the smash button near it. Then head right and hit the red plant again. After that, hit the blue plant on the right side, head right, and hit the smash button. Now you have developed a path, so head back to the red plant and hold the smash button again.

Then head right and hit the red plant, and then hit the blue plant at the bottom. After that, hit the smash button, and you can go ahead. Defeat the enemies and follow the path to find Eva. Activate the switch to fall down with her.

Find Tinder And More Berries For Wolfgang

Now head right, get on the moving platform, and jump on the platform at the south side. Then start moving toward the left side, and there will be another tree with a berry. You can hit the tree with the smash of Patches to get the berry. Keep heading left, and you will find Tinder stuck in a pretty hilarious way. Now you cannot save Tinder without Wolfgang, so you will need to heal him first.

Heal Wolfgang To Save Tinder

You just need one more berry, so head left, and you will eventually find another berry. Now head back to the alien, give him the berry, and Wolfgang will be healed. So now head back to Tinder. You can use different characters’ abilities to reach there faster now, and use Wolfgang’s ability to grow the plant.

Then save Tinder, and you will have your full crew once again.

Head Back In The R&D Lab

Now you need to head back to the lab, and do note that there are going to be way more enemies than before. However, defeating them is not going to be an issue, so keep heading right. Now that you have Eva, you can unlock cell number two, where an alien is being held captive.

How To Restore The Power

Then go back and talk to him. After that, head left and you will notice the way being blocked by some ice. Use Tinder’s flames to burn the ice to enter. Ahead, you will find a pretty strong enemy that uses a flamethrower, so be careful and try to defeat him as soon as possible with big hits.

Then head north and right to find the computer terminal. Patches will then restore your ID Badge, so go back and head west this time. Left of the copy machine, you will see a red machine. Use that machine to scan your ID Card and the power will be restored.

Head East After Restoring Power

Now that you have restored the power, you can do the things you could not before. Head right and activate the terminal to unlock a path for you. Keep going right until you reach the entrance where you melted the ice. From there, head up the stairs, go left, up more stairs, and you will see another terminal.

Restore The Power In The Second Half Of The Lab

Activate it to go right. Defeat the enemies ahead, follow the path to the right, save the game, and you will be in a pretty dark spot. Use Tinder’s flames to go ahead, and eventually you will reach another area with the ID Card scanner to restore power in this area.

Restore More Power

Now head left and go up the platform. You need to go to the area where you activated the switch to unlock cell number three to save Patches. There will be a terminal, so activate it, and a hidden path will be unlocked. Head there, go left, and activate another terminal.

Then head up and use the stairs to go to the uppermost area, and then head left. Activate the terminal at the left to unlock the door. Then head left, defeat some enemies along the way, and you will come across a switch. Activate the switch, enter, go down, and activate the terminal. Then head right, and this is the place you will need to come to in just a minute.

Go back, activate the switch again, and head to the place where you first restored power. From there, head left, and you will reach another ID Card scanner and restore more power.

Activate The Terminal To Proceed Further

Now head down the stairs, go right, go up the stairs, and activate the terminal that previously did not have any power to open the path to the right. Then head right, and after defeating the enemies, you will have to complete a pretty complicated puzzle.

Smash the red block and then head up from the north to activate the green plant. Then hold the smash button and head right. Once you are on the right side, press the smash button again and go up. Now hold the smash button on top of the red block and hit the green plant on the left side with your Buckler.

After that, press the smash button, and you can go ahead. Then activate the terminal to unlock the shortcut and head right.

Restore Power To Activate The Terminal

Defeat the enemies, and you will notice that the terminal ahead has no power. This means you will have to restore even more power. So simply head right to do so and then activate the terminal. Then head down, follow the path to the right, and you can finally open the door that you could not before.

Go ahead, and you will find the Lexichip, but as you get it, Mr. Moon will appear. Then, after a long conversation, you will have to face Mr. Moon in battle.

Scripted Fight With Mr. Moon

As you start the fight, your attacks will not have any effect on him, and when it is his turn, you will lose. However, Tinder does not seem to have betrayed her teammates and will damage Mr. Moon’s shield. Then you will have to take Tinder back to the office.

So now, as Mr. Moon is not around, you can head over to his office and open the safe. Inside, you will find the Tattered Book, so head inside the book.

Teleport Inside The Tattered Book

Once you are inside the Tattered Book, head right until you reach some chimney-type objects on the ground. From there, head north, and on the left side, there will be a bookshelf. Move it to the north, and a mouse will come out. Before going out, throw your Buckler inside from where the mouse came from to get cheese. Then go out and transform the mouse into a bouncing mushroom.

Then, enter the first floor to get a Rusty Gate Key. After that, head down the path and open the lock. Pick up the carrot and use Wolfgang’s ability to grow the vegetables. This is basically the pattern you need to burn the chimney-type objects at the right.

Now head to where the puzzle is, and before solving it, head inside the house to the left. Inside is a door secured with a combination. The answer to that is 430. Unlock it and pick up the beet.

Solve The Puzzle To Go Ahead

Burn the chimneys accordingly, and if you are having a hard time doing that, you can just look at the image above and do the same. Then go ahead, and you will have to solve another puzzle.

How To Solve The Farmer’s Market Puzzle

Head southwest to activate the seal and then move the boat to the left. Smash the button in the middle and then head to the path you just unlocked. There will be a house on the north side. Inside will be fish, so pick that up. Then you will notice a mouse outside the house. Use it to go up the right side and grab a pumpkin.

You will now already have all of the items to solve the puzzle. Pick up the bread, and I will tell you how to display everything from left to right. First comes the fish, then the bread, cheese, carrot, beet, and lastly the pumpkin. Displaying it like this will open the path ahead.

How To Defeat Mr. Moon

Once you solve the puzzle, head right to find Mr. Moon. After a long conversation, a battle will begin, and now you will be able to damage him. You will not be fighting Mr. Moon alone, as Starla will be there as well. Mr. Moon will do a laser attack that will hit you four times, so unless you block it perfectly, it is going to do some serious damage.

Starla doesn’t have an attack as she is a support. She will be constantly buffing up Mr. Moon, so it is better to take care of your first. Both of them have a pretty large health pool, so be careful. After defeating Starla, Mr. Moon will be angry and increase his attacks.

He also does an attack where he summons a cow that will hit both of your characters.

Phase Two

After you have taken out most of his health, he will change his attacks. Now, this will not be like phase two, in which the boss completely transforms. Instead, he will do more of an attack where he will lift both of your characters up and slam them into the ground.

After you have defeated Mr. Moon, he will give you the Lexichip back, and you will now be able to travel to the Real World. With that, Chapter Four: The Icefall Chronicles will come to an end.
