Here, we'll help you find and complete the Overgrown Cave dungeon. It's more difficult than the early dungeons, but it's manageable when you come prepared. Every puzzle has a solution, and we'll walk you through it so you can emerge victorious. Here's everything you need to know to become the best slayer in Hinterberg!

How To Unlock The Overgrown Cave

The Overgrown Cave is located in the Hinterwald, but it's unreachable at first. You'll need to complete other dungeons first to gain access in a few days.

When you first arrive in the Hinterwald, head up the wooden stairs and take the path to your left. Past the watermill and to the right is a chasm. Use the zipline to cross the gap and head up the hill to reach the Overgrown Cave portal.

Overgrown Cave Puzzles

When you first enter the Overgrown Cave, follow the path down the tunnel until you reach the fiery brambles. Use your whirlwind ability to scoop Luisa up and carry her across the brambles to the other side of the room.

Continue on to the next room featuring a bridge. Use your ranged attack on the target to your left to rotate the platform so you can cross. In the next room, you'll drop down and have to fight off some Kobolds. Then, climb along the walls to get higher up and reach the next area in the dungeon.

Step onto the wooden platform, which will descend under Luisa's weight. Follow the tunnel to reach the next puzzle, which is a bit more complicated.

Tip The Scales

There are two platforms in the chamber that will move under Luisa's weight. You'll need to balance them so she can climb out and into the next room. There are two large blue blocks in the area, so use your whirlwind to pick them up and drop them onto the wooden platform on the left.

It will then be heavy enough for Luisa to climb atop the platform leading to the next area. Head on through to find another wooden platform and four small purple pods. Pick these up with your ranged attack and launch them at the platform so that it's weighed down. This will open the gate so you can proceed.

In the next room, there will be two wooden platforms and four pods again. Throw all four pods onto the raised platform to lower it, then step onto it. Throw the pods onto the other platform now to lift yourself up to the edge and climb out of the room.

The last weight puzzle has two heavy blocks on a wooden platform, and another platform that's empty. You'll need to use your whirlwind to pick up both blocks from the lowered platform, then move them to the other platform as it descends.

Have Luisa run up to the platform at the end of the room, then use the whirlwind again to pick up the blocks, go up the rocky slope, and drop both blocks on the raised platform. This will lift Luisa up to the ledge so she can leave the room.

Overgrown Cave Final Fight

Once you finish all the puzzles, you'll reach the second-to-last chamber where you'll face off against several rounds of monsters. Be careful, as these monsters are a bit different from the rest!

Thankfully, they can be defeated all the same. Use your magic abilities to help you move about the room quickly and launch ranged attacks. After they're all defeated, you can leave the room and find Alex waiting for you at the exit. Stamp your book and use the portal to go home.
