Theres not much left ahead of you in this game, right?
Take note of where all four buttons are and beeline there to beat the Manticore in Animal Well.
This guide picks up from where you receive the Lantern, as the fight is just past the chest.
You just have it for so little time before it’s effectively useless.
Once you’ve saved,go rightout of this passageway.
In here,use your Lantern to navigate through the spirit-filled corridorsthat lead down two screens.
From here,go right one screen when you’re ready.
As soon as you get into this room,the Manticore spawns and begins its relentless chase.
Animal Well is a non-combat Metroidvania with deep, complex secrets.
From here, quicklyrun back to the left screenwhere the locked door was.
Drop into the room below andhit your last buttonto unlock the door in the main room.
Now all that’s left is to get in there!
When I stop playing Animal Well, I will always think back to how difficult the ostrich encounter was.
