Uncover hidden coins, secret paths, and unlockable content across Inkwell Isles I, II, III, and Hell in this Cuphead walkthrough.

Hey there! Cuphead's overworld map is more than just a way to get from boss to boss; it's packed with little secrets and shortcuts. Let's dive into how you can find them across each of the main islands!

Inkwell Isle I Secrets

Once you're near Goopy Le Grande's tree, head right until you find an underpass. Ducking under it lets you reach a whole new area on the other side. Keep an eye out after you've beaten all the bosses on Inkwell Isle I – Chip, the little axe guy, will move aside, revealing a hidden coin nestled in the trees. Grab it!

Inkwell Isle II Secrets

Heading to the right side of Wally Warbles's house is a smart move. It's the quickest way to get to Grim Matchstick's tower. Also, after you've managed to get all those cool rainbow bridges to appear, you'll find a girl who was complaining about losing a race. Chat with her, and she'll reward you with a coin. Oh, and if you go behind Baron Von Bon Bon, you'll find the fourth barber. Talking to him unlocks a special song from the barbershop quartet – a neat little musical treat!

Inkwell Isle III Secrets

Feeling adventurous? Look above Porkrind's Emporium; there's a hidden coin just waiting to be found. And that fancy glove NPC near the Emporium? If you've met certain conditions, he'll give you one of two things. If you've managed to get all 'P' ranks on the Run and Gun levels, you'll snag the two-strip filter. But if you've earned all 'A' ranks or better, you'll get a different filter instead. Pretty neat rewards for your hard work!

Inkwell Hell Secrets

Even in the fiery depths of Inkwell Hell, there are secrets! Just behind the main staircase, you'll find a hidden coin. Keep your eyes peeled!
