Beach Secret Door: Cooked Food and Meal Ticket

Starting Area Secret #1: Cooked Food and Meal Ticket

You need the Holy Sword Endu for this one, since it gives you the quick dash. Expect several Forest Eyes and Fish to attack you along the way.

1. Go back to the spot where the game begins and turn right.
2. Follow the sunken floor through the water.
3. Jump and quick dash across the gap.
4. Take the Cooked Food and Meal Ticket at the end of the path.

Starting Area Secret #2: Cooked Food and Meal Ticket

This spot also needs the quick dash from the Holy Sword Endu.

1. Go to the first save pillar, next to the barricade you broke at the start.
2. Climb the staircase on the left.
3. At the top, turn left. The Cooked Food sits on a small platform across from you.
4. Run, jump, and quick dash over to the platform.

One or two Skeletons spawn when you get there. You can drop back down to fight them, then make the jump again.

Starting Area Secret #3: Cooked Food, Meal Ticket, and Trident Puzzle

1. Go to the starting area door you unlocked by throwing a dagger into the diamond-shaped target.
2. Stand in front of the door and turn right. There is a bush in front of the wall.
3. Walk into the bush until you hit the wall.
4. Press E on the wall to reveal the secret area.

Inside you’ll find Cooked Food and a Meal Ticket. The area also has a trident puzzle.

Starting Area Secret #4: Witch’s Grimoire

This secret gives you the Witch’s Grimoire, a secret item.

1. At the spot where the game begins, find the large tree just ahead of you, slightly to the right.
2. Walk around the tree, staying close to the wall.
3. Press E to open a hidden compartment with the Witch’s Grimoire inside.
4. Open your inventory and use the book. You can now inscribe something in it.

Writing BLINGE gives you the Ring of Fire and unlocks the “Witchcaft” achievement (Inscribe something in the grimoire). If you only want the achievement, you can do this on a separate save file. For the other codes you can write in the book, see all Witch’s Grimoire codes.

Starting Area Secret #5: Secret Region

Warning: this leads to a high-level region with stronger enemies. Wait until you have at least 3 wind charges for the Holy Sword Endu and feel ready for tougher fights.

The way in only opens after you defeat the Shrine Guardian and get the Holy Sword Endu, which changes the world.

1. Go to the soldiers’ campfire. Next to it is a well covered with rocks and planks.
2. Once the boss is dead and you have the Holy Sword Endu, the rocks are gone but the planks remain.
3. Break the planks with fully charged Holy Sword Endu attacks. It takes about 3 to 4 hits.
4. Drop down the well. If you only have 1 wind charge, aim for the platform on the right side instead of the left.

The drop is easier with 2 or 3 wind charges.
