Dungeons and Caves
This page contains spoilers. It shows the maps of every cave, dungeon, and hidden place in the game, including ones you may not have found yet. Everything stays hidden until you choose to open it.

The maps are grouped by place, in the order you meet them. Every staircase is numbered on the map, and the table under each map says where it leads and which staircase you arrive at. Click a map to see it full size.

Mountain Tunnel
The game shows a different version of the tunnel at different points in the story, so these three maps are the same place. They have no stairs: you walk in and out.
Mountain Tunnel 1
| # | Stairs | Leads to |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Exit | Out to the world map |
| 2 | Exit | Out to the world map |
Mountain Tunnel 2
| # | Stairs | Leads to |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Exit | Out to the world map |
| 2 | Exit | Out to the world map |
Mountain Tunnel 3
| # | Stairs | Leads to |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Exit | Not reachable, or it does nothing. |
| 2 | Exit | Not reachable, or it does nothing. |
| 3 | Exit | Out to the world map |
Crystal Mountains
The first map is a maze. Every staircase teleports you to another staircase on the same map.
Puzzle solution (the shortest route)
The shortest way through takes 8 staircases:
- On Crystal Mountains 1, take stair 14. It leads to the same map.
- On Crystal Mountains 1, take stair 1. It leads to the same map.
- On Crystal Mountains 1, take stair 10. It leads to the same map.
- On Crystal Mountains 1, take stair 16. It leads to the same map.
- On Crystal Mountains 1, take stair 18. It leads to the same map.
- On Crystal Mountains 1, take stair 20. It leads to the same map.
- On Crystal Mountains 1, take stair 33. It leads to the same map.
- On Crystal Mountains 1, take stair 36. It leads to Crystal Mountains 2.
Other routes exist, but they are longer. The tables below say what every other staircase does.
