Table of contents
Chapter 1: Secrets
Chapter 1 starts off in a fairly simple manner, with the game providing tutorials on the control scheme. Learn the controls and keep moving right until you meet Anua to start off the first puzzle.Â
You will need to catch Anua without being seen, so you will use the grass in the room to your advantage. Just hide in the grass and move towards her before she starts looking back, until you catch her without getting caught.
Electricity And Platform Puzzles
After catching Anua, keep moving right and make some jumps to reach the next puzzle section. Here, you will need to climb up the ledges and turn off the electricity so that Anua can cross safely. Continue left to reach your next hurdle in the story.
Next, use the rope to descend to the bottom and move the platform to the left so that Anua can get on it. Then move it to the right so that Anua can reach the next area. Use the ledge to climb up and get back to Anua.
Underwater Section
The next area houses an underwater section, and you will need to make a dive. Make sure to catch your breath by surfacing whenever the need arises. In the water, you will find a small cage and a switch.
Use the switch to lower the gate here and note its location. Next, use the switch again to make the gate ascend and place the cage under it.
Lower the gate again, and this time you can swim under it. Finally, you can surface and travel to the other side, which was previously blocked by the gate.
Initial Enemy Encounters
You will need to make a few jumps using the ledges on the other side of the gate. This will allow you to reach the first enemy encounter in the game.
In this initial encounter, switch the light off and bait the enemy to the other side. Turn the light back on, and you can now move right without anyone chasing you.
The next room has another enemy waiting for you, so jump to the other side using the rope. Quickly climb up and use the switch to turn on the light that’s on the platform Anua is standing on.
Use the ledge to reach the other side and move the platform to the right. Then, climb on top of the platform using the rope, and you will reach the next room in this section. A cutscene plays here, and you will switch to Mui after it ends.
Mui’s Section
You will need to guide Mui to different waypoints in its section. Keep moving left and use the switch to open the closed door.
You will encounter a generator next, and this is where the game introduces Mui’s special ability, which you can use to turn the generator off. This will open the previously closed door and allow you to progress to the next room.
Use Mui’s special ability again near the generator on top of the platform. This will allow you to cut off the wire holding the platform as the current will stop flowing.
Once the wire is cut, the platform automatically moves to the right, and you can jump on top of it to reach the next area.
The next section houses a lift which can be turned on using the switch. As the lift ascends, you will come close to another generator on the left side, and it can be shut down using Mui’s special ability.
Use the switch to make the lift descend, and you can now move left to reach Lana and Anua as the path becomes clear.
Playing As Lana And Mui
You can now play as Lana again, but you will also be able to control Mui and use its abilities to solve puzzles.
Keep moving right, and you will come across a switch on the ground that can be pressed to release a plant-based platform. Command Mui to stay on the switch, so you can use the platform to climb towards the next room.
Don’t forget to call Mui back after you reach the other side.
You will soon come across another obstacle in the form of a door. Command Mui to use its special ability on the generator near the door, which will unlock the door.
The next room also contains another puzzle that requires you to rely on Mui. Make Mui stay near the generator and climb on top as Lana to get near the closed door. Next, use Mui’s special ability to unlock the door and proceed forward.
Keep moving right, and you’ll reach another press-able switch on the floor. Command Mui to stand on top of the switch, which will open up a platform that you can use to descend.
Move left after descending to reach an area with another movable platform.
Exploring Underground
Command Mui again to sit on top of the movable platform in this new area. Next, move the platform towards both the left and right sides so that Mui can cut down the ropes.
After both ropes have been cut, move the platform between them. Now, you will be able to use these ropes and the platform to climb to the top.
To reach the next section, you will need to descend again, where another enemy encounter awaits. Use the switch to move the light towards the left and make Mui jump on top of it.
Next, you’ll need to jump down and lure the enemy toward the light. Climb the ledges on your left and make Mui turn off the light by using its special ability.
This will make the monster move to the opposite side, and you can safely cross to the other side once the light turns back on.
Locating The Captain’s Quarters
The next area features another underwater dive, but you will need to bring Mui along with you this time.
Just as you dive underwater, there’s a platform that you can interact with. Place that platform between Mui and the destroyed structure.
Make Mui jump onto the structure and have Lana dive further right. There will be another platform here that you’ll need to bring up so that Mui can get across to the other side.
Stay clear of the deadly fish here while you’re interacting with the platform. Use Mui’s special ability to get to the next room.
Use the switch in this new room to turn off the power so that Mui and Anua can cross to use the lift. Command Mui to activate the lift after you bring the power back on.
Next, make Mui jump onto the platform on the left and cut the power off.
Now, you will be able to use Mui to cut the wire. Once the wire is cut, you can use it to jump off the pool of electricity and use the lift to ascend.
You will finally arrive at the Captain’s Quarters.
Escaping From the Captain’s Quarters
Interact with the painting inside the quarters to start a cutscene.
After this cutscene ends, you will need to escape from the right side. Your final hurdle in this chapter will be to activate and slide through the moving mechanisms.
They can be activated by commanding Mui to turn on the switch on top of you. Run past these structures and don’t get caught under their weight.
You can climb on top of the second mechanism and use it to escape to the outside.
Chapter 2: Home Sweet Home
As soon as the opening cutscene for this chapter ends, keep moving left until you arrive at your first puzzle involving the flying robot. Make Mui jump on top of the robot and use its special ability to bring the robot down.
Once it is on the ground, you can take control of the flying robot itself.
The puzzle itself involves carrying three boxes and placing them on the appropriate switches. There are signs visible on both the boxes and near the switches, which must be aligned.
You will use the robot to carry and drop the boxes.
- There is a box on your left with three dots – place it on the switch under the lift on your left.
- You will find another box near the lift with a dot and two lines – carry it to the switch on your right.
- The final box is located on the far-right beyond the cliffs – place it on the switch between the first two boxes.
Now you can enter the lift on your left and use it to descend to the next area.
Platforming Section
After you descend, keep moving right to reach a switch that you can interact with to move the platform on top of you toward the right side.
This allows you to use the platform to reach the rope, then jump left onto the cliff, and climb to the top of the cliff. A series of cutscenes will play at the top as you progress left.
Finding The Healing Seaweed
After the cutscenes end, you will be back in town and will be tasked with finding the seaweed.
Keep moving right, and you will come across two underwater sections. Skip the first one for now, move to the second section.
You will find two boats here, separated by a wall. Command Mui to jump on the second boat, while Lana stays on the first boat.
Next, take control of a small fish using Mui, boost to the right, and swim down to release a cloud of ink in front of the giant electric fish.
Now you can take control of Lana again, swim down, and remove the debris to clear your path. Swim further and use the cloud of ink to get past the electric fish.
Further down on your left, you will find more debris that needs to be cleared.
Resurface after clearing the debris, and move left towards the first underwater section.
Stand near the cart here and take control of another small fish using Mui. You can take the fish through the cleared debris to the first underwater section.
Use the fish as bait here for the electric creature and lure it to the cage just below Lana. Then, have Lana move the cart and close the cage.
This allows you to swim down here as Lana and get your hands on the seaweed on your left.
Resurface with the seaweed and keep moving left to trigger another cutscene.
Locating Lana’s Parents
After the cutscene ends, go left to locate Lana’s parents. You will find a movable platform here, which can be used to ascend.
Keep moving left and crouch under the cliff to reach the gravestones, where a cutscene will play.
After this cutscene ends, go left again to trigger yet another cutscene, which results in the completion of the second chapter.
