★ Desiccated Castle — illustrated walkthrough
1. Use the purple tent as the starting point
Save at the purple tent inside the castle. Use it as a return point while exploring the surrounding room branches.
◆ A collectible branch blocked by stone
A collectible above the low-ceilinged room is blocked by stone. Inspect the ground switch or other mechanism, then check for changes to the upper route.
2. The timed challenge in a spiked shaft
The timed challenge climbs a narrow shaft with spikes on both walls. Use the available safe sections on the left and watch the spikes rather than focusing only on the timer.
3. The suspended wooden boat and projectiles
A wooden boat-shaped target hangs from a chain with blue bottle-shaped projectiles nearby. Watch its movement and projectile direction while keeping horizontal space.
4. Looter mentions the docks
Speak with Looter, who plans to visit the docks to find his sister after finishing here. Complete the conversation and inspect remaining rooms.
◆ A high story page beside the chain mechanism
A glowing story page lies high to the left in the chain-mechanism room. Judge the jump from a safe ledge and avoid spikes on the wall and projecting platform.
5. Revisit the lower pickup branch
Return to the grassy platform beneath the low ceiling and check the green pickup beside the left ledge. Compare the minimap with lower edges and nearby branches.
※ Different safe surfaces in the moonlit room
In the moonlit room, spikes cover the upper platform while the lower floor provides a continuous route. Check the lower exit before exploring the high branch.
6. The gravestone dialogue above the water
Read the dialogue beside the waterside gravestone about a long-forgotten curse. Finish it before inspecting nearby exits.
→ The nest platform and the next tutorial
Interact with the glowing tutorial object on the nest platform. Enter the practice space and follow the in-game instructions.
