| So the Trine has come for the heroes and the adventure was ready to begin. Amadeus worried for his family, while Pontius looked forward to their new quest. Zoya, of course, imagined what fabulous treasure they might find. |
- Level Experience: 130
- Monster Experience: 25
- Secrets: 2
You can now change characters at any time. Do this right away and switch to Amadeus and grab the mushroom in the upper left or the area for some Level Experience. Switch back to Zoya and continue right.
In the next area, grab the Level Experience in the air by grappling the swinging log above and the swinging to a plant leaf with another Level Experience.
Using Amadeus, push the log on the right enough that you can jump to it, swing across to a Level Experience, and jump to another leaf with a Level Experience. Jump off the leaf to the right to get the floating Level Experience in the sky, but instead of heading toward the checkpoint go back to your left and down to the area we passed over to get Level Experience x3 (one requires Pontius to break the wooden planks).
With Zoya, shoot the vine holding the log near the checkpoint to drop it and allow you to get back up to the cliff. Once on the upper level, grab the Level Experience x2 and hit the checkpoint.
Switch to Pontius and use his hammer to smash the nearby statue and grab the Level Experience inside. Follow the path and pull the suspended log down on the left side with Amadeus to change the waters flow and grow a mushroom while dropping a Level Experience bottle. After the first mushroom has grown, grab the leaf nearby and drag it left to get the water to the second mushroom.
This should let you get the Level Experience x6 in the air and the Level Experience on the right side of the suspended log before jumping to another Level Experience in the sky.
If the water is not flowing right, switch it and drag the grounded log down on the right side as well. Switch to Pontius and hit the beams holding a Level Experience up in the right corner of the area before hopping on the lowest mushroom to grab another Level Experience.
You can now jump to the solid upper level for another Level Experience and get the Level Experience on the highest mushroom (you'll need to get back up on the suspended log to reach this). When you have all the experience in the area, go back to the upper level on the right and smash the wooden wall with Pontius and continue.
Hop over the gaps in the floor, grabbing the Level Experience, and continue. Hit the stone, to break the wooden breams, and you should get a Level Experience as you fall. Finally, break the wall to drop another Level Experience.
In the next area, use Zoya to swing up and over both platforms for Level Experience x2, as the narration warns of enemies approaching.
Switch to Pontius to defeat them and gain Monster Experience x4.
After the battle, head to the right and jump on the platform to grab a Level Experience. As it lowers, jump to the platform that is lifted in response for another Level Experience. If you are having issues with timing, take the heavy box and put it on the platform to keep it lowered and jump to the raised platform.
At the checkpoint, draw a box and shove it in the spikes to the left and use Zoya to swing on top of it to get Level Experience x2 and a large Level Experience x5 potion. Once you're at the top, you can drop down and continue (the heart is purely life, which you can get from the checkpoint below).
Back at the checkpoint, create a box to block the fire from the plant and then run across to get the Level Experience. Just above the plant is a wooden platform that you can strike with Pontius to drop the Level Experience x2. Using the seesaw, get the Level Experience on the right and then hop to the left and smash the statue with your hammer for another Level Experience. Up to the right is a wooden platform which Zoya can grapple to get a Level Experience. If you jump to the right and jump again when you hit the wall, you should also reach Level Experience x2 and your first Collectible Painting.
Drop down all the way to the ground and break the two crates for Level Experience x2 and defeat the enemy that appears for Monster Experience. Back at the seesaw, use it to go right this time for a Level Experience on a collapsible platform and defeat another enemy for a Monster Experience. Use the boulder to get the Level Experience x2 in the sky and continue right for another Level Experience.
When you reach the next area, use Zoya to grapple the wooden platform above and gain the Level Experience. You must also defeat the enemies in the area for Monster Experience x5. On the right side of the area, grab the Level Experience x2 and then flip the wooden platform that is located to the upper left of your current position to grab another Level Experience. To get the experience trapped by wooden planks in the upper right corner, use Pontius' shield to angle the plants firebolts up to break the wooden beams, and collect the Level Experience. Grab the Level Experience on the other side of the plant and hit the checkpoint.
Create a box to stand on and grab the Level Experience and then use Pontius to break the wooden platform and drop Level Experience x2. We will come right back here for the rest, but for now continue right.
Break the wall with Pontius and grab the Level Experience before breaking another wall to reach Level Experience x2 and a two flaming plants. Using Pontius' shield, block the flames as you run across the area and jump to the ledge with Level Experience x6. It may feel odd to hold the directional stick and jump, but you just have to use the base of your thumb to hit the jump button. Use the lever in the area and select restart from the last checkpoint in to menu to get back to the area that has just changed.
Use the new platform to reach the Level Experience that did not fall and climb up to the checkpoint. Go right a bit so the boulder above begins to fall and duck back into the checkpoint until it passes.
You can now kill the monster and collect the Level Experience x3 nearby as you follow the boulders path and jump over it to slide into Level Experience x2.
Switch to Zoya and grapple the log above to get to the leaf with a Level Experience. To the right is a monster with Monster Experience and a statue for Pontius to crush for another Level Experience. When a bubble begins to rise, hop on it and ride it up to a ledge for Level Experience x2, making sure to jump before the bubble is popped by the spikes. Once you are on solid ground, use Amadeus' boxes to navigate a bubble around the spikes to get the higher Level Experience x2.
Continue right, grabbing the Collectible Poem and hitting the checkpoint. Directly below the checkpoint is a wooden barricade blocking Level Experience x2, so break it with Pontius and then use him to break the crate to the right with another Level Experience.
In the area with the water, pull the suspended log down on the left to grab a Level Experience before grappling on top for another Level Experience in the air. Create or use the crate nearby to weigh the log's left side down and then grab the loose log to the left of the glowing spot with Amadeus and use it to bridge the gap between the water and glowing spot to move the snail.
Moving along, past the snail and a quick scene with a snake, you'll come to a room with a bouncy mushroom and some enemies. Defeat the two enemies for Monster Experience x2 and the use the bouncy mushroom to reach the easy Level Experience x2. In order to reach the highest orb with Level Experience x5, create a box on top of the mushroom and use it to jump to the highest leaf.
Continue right and use the bubbles and Amadeus' boxes to manipulate and collect the Level Experience x3 in the sky. Now, grab the Level Experience in the water, the Level Experience under the bridge, and another Level Experience trapped with the log that must be broken free.
There are many ways to get across the next puzzle:
- Use the bubble/Amadeus trick
- Simply create a box with Amadeus and as it falls use it to jump up
- Solve the puzzle by using the log and 2 boxes to hold the bridge up
Either way, get across to the Level Experience and use Zoya to get the Level Experience x2 above the doorway on the left side.
Grab the Level Experience x2 at the checkpoint and I suggest using the rock to defeat the enemy to work toward the trophy (''I Didn't Do It''), for defeating enemies with 3 different environment objects. Defeating all the enemies will gain you Monster Experience x4 as well. Using Amadeus, grab the Level Experience in the sky and then use Pontius to smash the statue on the right for another Level Experience.
There is a moveable cart above the two fire plants. Start by moving the cart to the right enough that the natural momentum will take over and carry it the rest of the way and then grapple to reach the Level Experience x3 in the area.
Above the next checkpoint is a Level Experience that you can Fire Arrow, attack with Pontius, or swing up to. As you continue, grab the Level Experience on the ground and defeat the monsters for Monster Experience x6. When you are ready, progress by using Amadeus to make a box.
As you enter the area with the swinging boulder, grapple the wooden plank above to reach a Level Experience on top. Cross the platforms below, grabbing the Level Experience and switch to Pontius when you reach the fire plant on the other side. Use your shield to kill the enemy for Monster Experience and clear a pathway to continue right. Get the Level Experience x2 that dropped on/in the crate and use a box to get above the plant for another Level Experience.
The next area with airflow pipes is great for 2 trophies.
- ''Cirque de Zoya'' - Using grapple, swing 360 around the small log with a candle on it and reattach grapple again without touching any surface.
- ''Surfboard Master'' - Stand on a plank floating on a single airflow for 4 seconds (requires that you unlocked Plank)
Now that you have possibly done the above, grab the Level Experience x3 (if you haven't while trying to do Zoya's trophy) and the large Level Experience x5 by swinging with Zoya and jumping into the sky.
To proceed, attack the vine holding the curved pipe in the bottom right corner and attach it to the other pipe directly next to it to create a second air flow upward. Use this to get up to the above ledge for Level Experience x2.
Continue east to the next checkpoint and the final boss. The object is to get the snake to destroy the supports for the roof when it tries to bite you as you stand still on a platform.
Tips:
- Make sure to get the Level Experience x2 at the top of the area before any platforms are destroyed.
- Do not walk past the third platform, as the snake will attack and kill you.
- If you give Zoya Fire Arrow, she can shoot the platforms to get the job done quicker.
