Dark Maze Guide

To enter the maze, head to the Forest and follow the path on the left labeled “Dark Maze.” 🌲💀 Once you step inside, get ready for a musical puzzle.

Step 1: Solve the Musical Puzzle 🎹

As I warned you, to proceed, you’ll need to solve the musical puzzle. Make sure to wait for the steam geysers to finish revealing the sequence before you play it on the organ.

There are three rounds, and in each one, you’ll need to repeat the correct color sequence:

  1. PinkBlueOrangePink
  2. PinkOrangeBluePinkGreen
  3. GreenPinkOrangeBluePinkPink

Follow the sequences carefully, and the steam geysers will sink back into the ground, revealing a clear path and unlocking the door ahead.

Get ready, it’s about to get very dark! If the darkness gives you chills, you can always equip your Night Vision Goggles from the PSA Agent Catalog to light the way.

Step 2: Grab a Lantern at the Dark Chamber

Once inside the Dark Chamber, it will be… well, dark. 💀 But don’t worry! Move slightly to the right to find the Storm Lantern. Equip it to help light your way through the maze.

If you’d like an even clearer view to see the entire room, you can also wear the Dark Vision Goggles from the PSA Agent Catalogue. You can even put them on before entering the chamber, totally up to you!

Step 3: Monster Room

Here, you just need to follow the path into the Monster Lab. Easy!

Step 4: Monster Lab

Welcome to the Monster Lab! 🧪 While you explore, collect the free item on the right, by the tree: The Swamp Monster.

You’ll also find the Monster Maker Catalogue, with all sorts of spooky outfits to create your perfect creature look. 👻

Hidden Candy Guide

This year introduces a new mechanic….or rather, the return of a familiar one! Remember the Elf on the Shelf hunt from the 2024 Christmas Party? It’s back, but with a Halloween vibe! 👻🍬

Each day, a piece of Candy is hidden somewhere on the island. Find it to unlock a new free item daily! If you miss a day, don’t worry as you can still collect previous candies and rewards. Candy won’t appear in rooms with access requirements (like the HQ, EPF Command Room, Ninja Hideout, or Fire Dojo).

Candies are always hidden indoors. 

Confirmed sitings:

Dojo, Ski Lodge, Ski Lodge Attic, Pizza Parlour, Boiler Room, Gift Shop Office, The Lookout (Tour HQ roof)
