Guide to completing Level 12 of Blue Prince, 'Prince Versus Shadow'. Learn how to navigate traps, defeat the Shadow, and merge with him for an extra life.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    At the start of the level, climb the ledges on the right to the second storey.
  2. 2
    Go right and climb the next ledge on the right.
  3. 3
    Carefully get past the spikes.
  4. 4
    Run left until you see the end and jump to the other side, which is full of loose slabs. Hold SHIFT.
  5. 5
    Once across, climb to the top platform with 3 slabs. Run and jump to the next platform, then keep running and jump to another platform on the right. Continue running and jumping to subsequent platforms.
  6. 6
    Climb the ledge to a dead end with a skeleton.
  7. 7
    Climb the ledge above and drop the slab above you to find an extra Healing Potion.
  8. 8
    Climb up again and perform a blind jump to the left. Run and jump as soon as possible, or walk slowly and jump.
  9. 9
    Once across, climb up one storey and run across the loose slabs. Jump at the end.
  10. 10
    Climb to the top of the ledge, ignoring the gate for now.
  11. 11
    Find and hit a switch. Climb down and enter the gate (it opens when the switch is hit).
  12. 12
    Run and jump to the other side of the pit to the right (hold SHIFT). Pull yourself up and run across to the other side.
  13. 13
    Climb the ledge. Grab the loose slab on the right; the next slab is solid.
  14. 14
    Drop one of the loose slabs and climb up.
  15. 15
    Run left to the sword and climb up again. The Shadow will appear.
  16. 16
    Defeat the Shadow. He has 4 life bullets, and you both lose a life bullet when the other is injured. If he dies, you die. If you fall, you die. If you put your sword down, he does too. Jump into him when he is in Neutral mode to merge.
  17. 17
    After merging, wait until you stop flashing.
  18. 18
    Run across the large pit to the left. Solid slabs will appear with each step on air. Do not attempt this while flashing, or you will fall.
Tips
  • The loose slabs are designed to prevent you from turning back; this is a one-way path.
  • The switch opens the gate, which might close if you take too long.
  • The pit to the left after the gate leads nowhere.
  • Merging with the Shadow grants an extra life. Wait until you stop flashing after the merge before crossing the large pit.
