Child of Light walkthrough for Chapter 4, The Deep Dark Well. Learn how to solve puzzles, defeat enemies like water spiders and pigrats, and find the Tumbled Ocui.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Plunder all houses in the village for valuables before speaking to the quest giver.
  2. 2
    Speak to the BEARDED MAN, who explains the DARK QUEEN turned townsfolk into birds and that the WATER OF LETHE is the cure. Accept his offer to join your party.
  3. 3
    Descend into the well, which serves as a large aquifer dungeon.
  4. 4
    Encounter new enemies: a water spider (weak to lightning, resistant to fire) and a pigrat (weak to fire).
  5. 5
    In the first cavern, drop to the bottom and go left to find a symbol projection puzzle. Project the crescent moon symbol onto the top center of the image, above the queenly lady, to open the door.
  6. 6
    Explore the exterior of the dungeon for chests containing items, enemies, and experience points. You will encounter spike traps; use Finn's lighting ability on nearby white switches to temporarily disable them.
  7. 7
    After passing through the puzzly door into the dungeon's interior, you'll face new enemy types: a gargoyle (low HP) and a fiery wolf (vulnerable to water).
  8. 8
    Go right and drop down from the path to find a secret area with a chest containing a TUMBLED OCULI, a higher-tier oculi.
  9. 9
    Continue right until you find a statue's head and speak to the crow (Finn's grandpa). Fly up from here to find MAGIC STARDUST and CONFESSION #3.
  10. 10
    Proceed right past more spikes; the area will begin to rumble, signaling an upcoming boss fight. Recommended levels are around 15-18.
Tips
  • Finn the Magician is an offensive magic user with low general stats but high magic power. His skills branch from fire, water, and lightning attacks. Consider upgrading his water magic for the well dungeon, as water-based enemies are common and vulnerable to it.
  • Party members can be swapped during battle without using a turn. The newly swapped-in member can act immediately, which is useful for adapting to enemy weaknesses or conserving HP/MP.
  • Try merging your oculi to create more powerful versions.
