Navigate Part 3 of Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons, including how to swim, climb, and enter the town, and get the Wishing Well achievement.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Find a small, stone slope south of the bridge and slide down to a small beach.
  2. 2
    After a cutscene (a non-interactive cinematic the game plays automatically) (cinematic event) where Little Brother expresses fear of water, Big Brother assures him, and you enter the water.
  3. 3
    Hold down Little Brother's interact button so he latches onto Big Brother.
  4. 4
    Swim through the water using Big Brother's controls while holding Little Brother.
  5. 5
    Swim under the bridge and find a small beach on the right.
  6. 6
    Head back onto land and climb the dark vines on the cliff by holding the interact button and pressing up.
  7. 7
    Once both brothers are up, the Bully locks the town door. Interact with the door to bang on it, but no one helps.
  8. 8
    To the right of the doors, find a small cliff with small green levels of rock.
  9. 9
    Hold the interact button on the rock, then release it to jump to the next rock. Hold the interact button again when you reach the next green rock level.
  10. 10
    Scale the cliff with both brothers, or go up with one and then the other.
  11. 11
    At the top, walk north and jump across a small chasm.
  12. 12
    Climb up two levels of terrain to reach the wall.
  13. 13
    Grab the plank of wood nailed across the top of the wall and sidle left to reach the rooftop of a house. Do this with both brothers, not necessarily at the same time.
  14. 14
    Slide down the roof into the town.
  15. 15
    Walk to the man sleeping on the bench and use your camera buttons as prompted.
  16. 16
    Ignore the two men arguing below near a well.
  17. 17
    To the right, climb on top of large, circular tan barrels with flat tops with both brothers.
  18. 18
    Drop down into the yard with the rope-ladder.
  19. 19
    Hold the interact button to latch onto the rope-ladder and press up while holding it to climb. Repeat for the other brother.
  20. 20
    Follow the wooden platform to a catwalk on top of a rooftop and high-wire across as both brothers.
  21. 21
    Slide down the rooftop to a yard with a gate. The Bully holds the gate closed.
  22. 22
    Go between the black bars near caged animals as Little Brother.
  23. 23
    Walk to the northern end of the side with the cages and have Little Brother turn the lever.
  24. 24
    A dog is released, chasing the Bully.
  25. 25
    Walk into the town circle to reach a well. North of the well, find the scared Bully across a fence, up on barrels.
  26. 26
    You can laugh at him by pressing the interact button with both brothers.
  27. 27
    To the left of the Bully and dog, follow a stone path across a small bridge.
  28. 28
    Continue on the path to another bridge with a sleeping man.
  29. 29
    As Little Brother, interact with the sleeping man to grab his water bucket and throw it on him, waking him up.
  30. 30
    As Big Brother, interact with the man to show him the map.
  31. 31
    The man pulls a lever, dropping the bridge.
  32. 32
    Cross the bridge to reach a cutscene and the end of the prologue.

Chapter 1 Start:

  1. You begin on a dirt path. To the right is a yard with a stone water well.
  2. An old lady sits in a chair, with a small girl playing with her ball past her.
  3. To receive the "Wishing Well" achievement, grab the ball from the little girl when she bounces it against the wall and toss it in the well.
Tips

  • To climb the green rock levels, hold the interact button on the rock, release to jump, and hold again on the next rock.
  • You can scale cliffs with both brothers simultaneously or one after the other.
  • To climb the rope-ladder, hold the interact button to latch on, then press up while holding it.
