You need to activate every water point in the Forbidden Valley chapter, and a few are easy to miss if you only follow the main path. Most of these are tied to lighting lantern clusters, so your goal is to explore slightly off-route and make sure every lantern group you see gets activated before moving on. 1. In the first area, light the lanterns around the main pillar to activate the initial water flow at its base. 2. As the water spreads, head left instead of jumping over the ledge to find another set of lanterns in the center of the raised area. 3. After using the jellyfish to get over the wall, go left and move up the sandfall to reach another lantern cluster. 4. Continue along the water’s edge until you reach a group of lanterns beside another sandfall and activate them. 5. Before progressing forward, check the immediate right above near the base of a pillar to find an easy-to-miss lantern group. 6. When you reach the second jellyfish section, do not go straight up, instead head left and jump across two pillars to reach a higher platform with a large cluster of lanterns for the final water point.

You need to activate every water point in the Frozen Drifts chapter, and most of them are tied to lighting lantern clusters that spawn Tetra. A lot of these are slightly off the main path, so the key here is to slow down and check both sides of each new area before moving forward, especially around arches, hills, and elevated paths. 1. In the first clearing, head left and light the lanterns to summon Tetra and activate the first water point. 2. Stay on the left side of the area and find another nearby cluster of lanterns that also summons Tetra. 3. After entering the next area, check the left side near the ice for another lantern group. 4. Just past the archway, look to the left again for another set of lanterns. 5. After passing the crystal, move left to find another lantern cluster tied to a water point. 6. In the next area on the first hill, activate the lanterns you find there before continuing. 7. Head to the right side of the elevated section and follow the snowy path to another group of lanterns. 8. Continue through the central area and watch for another snow path leading to more lanterns. 9. After breaking the ice crystal, check to the left of the archway for another hidden cluster. 10. Follow the snowy trail near the elevated area to find another set of lanterns. 11. Behind the hill with the pillar, you will find the final lantern cluster needed for completion.

You need to activate every water point in the Sacred River chapter, and several are easy to miss if you only follow the main route. Most of them are tied to lantern clusters placed slightly off the path, so make sure to check both sides of the river and any nearby structures before moving forward. 1. As you enter the large outdoor area, head down and immediately check to your left for a cluster of lanterns. 2. Follow the trail to the left of the ghostly arches to find another lantern group. 3. Then check the trail on the right side of the ghostly arches for another set. 4. After crossing the chain beneath the floating island, jump across the two jellyfish on your right to reach a smaller island with lanterns, activating them creates paper lanterns that let you water grind to the far wall and reach the water point. 5. Continue along the main path until you reach the large inverted tower, then use the bowl ramp at the base where lanterns are located. 6. At the top island building, head to the half pipe and drop down into the lower room to find a hidden water point. 7. Use the floating lanterns to cross over to the next building, where activating the lanterns on the floor will generate kelp and reveal the final water point.

You need to activate every water point in the Shadow Tundra chapter, and while most are tied to progression, there is at least one easy-to-miss location early on. When you first encounter the boost wisps, look to your left for a jellyfish jump that leads away from the main path toward a distant doorway. Head inside and follow the trail of bones to find a hidden water point, and make sure you grab this before moving on so you do not have to come back later.

Unlock Details

You need to activate every water point in the Veiled Sea chapter, including a few that are easy to miss if you stay on the main path. Some are tied to progression, but others are tucked away behind simple puzzles, so take your time exploring along the edges of the area instead of rushing forward. A reliable route is to stick to the left wall after your first encounter with the vendor and clear everything as you go. 1. In the large open area after the vendor, follow the left wall to a lantern pillar, activate all lanterns to spawn jellyfish, then ride them up to reach a water point on the upper level. 2. Continue along the left wall up the hill and look for a cave hidden behind a sand waterfall, jump onto the central platform inside to find the next water point. 3. Stay left and find a small hill with lanterns, light them to reveal an entrance, then activate another set inside to lower the sand and follow the left path to the water point. 4. After the large mural lights up, check to the right for a small cave, use the jellyfish inside and take the left path to reach another water point. 5. In the central area near the entrance where chains connect, light the lanterns around the middle rock spikes to reveal a water point. 6. Once you raise the structure from the sand, activate the two lanterns on top to open the building and access the final water point.

This frog is hidden off the main path, so you will need to explore quieter side areas rather than following the obvious route. Listen for subtle environmental cues and check tucked-away spots or small hidden sections, and you should come across it without too much trouble if you stay observant.

Unlock Details

In the Shadow Tundra, head to the upper section where you use boost wisps, then take the path toward the doorway on the left as you descend the hill. Inside, activate the water point within the skull to restore the area, which causes elasmosaurs to appear. Use the kelp nearby to launch yourself and land on one, and if you miss, just reset and try again since they stay in the area.

You need to locate the frog skeleton, which is hidden in a hard to spot area similar to the other frog collectibles. When you reach the area with the water bubble near the large door, head to the right and cross over to the nearby boat. From there, make your way upward to the taller platform and look for a lantern at the top where the frog skeleton is resting. It is easy to overlook if you stay focused on the main objective, so take a moment to explore upward paths in this section. 1. Desert Rain Frog, after activating the sphere water point on the right chain, use the kelp behind the building to climb to the top of the waterfall, then follow the cliffs to the right and drop down the set of four stone platforms to find it at the lowest level. 2. Bullfrog, after activating the water point that triggers the exit chain, go to the top of the building behind the large shark statue, then carefully cross the narrow rooftop toward a pillar and climb it to reach the frog. 3. Horned Frog, after activating the first gold bell, head to the back of the large open area and use the ramp with a boost jump to reach the highest central platform where the frog is located. 4. Poison Dart Frog, after activating the water point on the boat, use kelp or the chain to reach the first pillar, then water grind toward the cliff near the boat to find the frog along that route. 5. Frog Skeleton, in the area with the water bubble near the large door, go right to the boat, then climb up to the higher platform and check the lantern at the top to find it.

Unlock Details

Unlock Details

All shells in the Lost Grotto are tied to exploration around buildings, rooftops, and hidden corners, so make sure to fully clear each section before moving on. Pay extra attention to elevated paths and areas that require wall rides or bubble routes, as shells are often placed slightly off the main objective path.

Unlock Details

In the Veiled Sea, restore the water that activates the left chain in the main open area and you will start to see marine life appear, including orcas.

Unlock Details

You need to activate every water point in the Lost Grotto chapter, including a few that are slightly off the main path. Some will happen naturally, but others require you to carry water bubbles and solve simple traversal routes, so take your time and focus on completing each area fully before moving on. 1. Pick up the water bubble near the door and follow the ground path into the building to guide it into the turtle mouth for the first water point. 2. Grab the water bubble again, activate the lanterns near the first turtle head to unlock the wall ride, then follow the rooftop path until you reach the next turtle head on your right. 3. To open the large gold door, activate the four switches in the tall building area, then use the left wall ride to reach another water bubble. Carefully return by chaining wall rides and avoiding falling sand, then deliver the bubble safely to the turtle mouth. 4. After activating the previous point, head above the building and continue forward to find the final water point tied to that route.

Shells in this chapter are spread across islands, rooftops, and paths connected by chains or jellyfish, so take your time exploring vertically as well as horizontally. If you see a structure or platform slightly off the main route, it is usually worth checking since shells are often placed there.

Unlock Details

In the Shadow Tundra, shells are commonly found near wisp routes, hidden side paths, and areas slightly off the main downhill flow. Use your speed boosts to explore alternate routes and check any side openings, especially near bones or structures, to avoid missing the harder ones.
