How to Beat The Crumbling World (Platforming Gauntlet)

Master the platforming gauntlet in Gris's Prologue. Learn how to navigate the Crumbling World, collect stars, and achieve the 'First Stage of Grief: Denial' challenge.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    After the opening cutscene, move Gris to the right. She will gain the ability to jump.
  2. 2
    Backtrack slightly to the left to find a pillar near where Gris first landed. Let Gris fall near a collapsed statue without touching the controller to complete the First Stage of Grief: Denial challenge.
  3. 3
    Continue moving right, ascending a large rock.
  4. 4
    Reach a small pulsing light, a Star, and absorb it.
  5. 5
    Continue right past crumbling platforms and a tree with upside-down triangular leaves.
  6. 6
    Climb a black mountain to the right and collect a second Star.
  7. 7
    Proceed to a large gap. Collect a third Star by climbing stairs on the left, ascending a leaning tower, and reaching a smaller tower.
  8. 8
    Before returning to the gap, mount the first staircase of the leaning tower and jump left to find and activate a Memento.
  9. 9
    Return to the gap; the three stars will form a bridge. Cross it.
  10. 10
    Continue right until you reach a crumbling stone hand, triggering a cutscene and the completion of the Red - A Color Has Been Brought Back challenge.
  11. 11
    Proceed to a giant staircase leading to a temple. At the top, observe a pictogram on the back wall.
  12. 12
    Continue forward to a blood-red tree. Your star companions will leave you here.
  13. 13
    Descend stairs and head right to a black tower. Climb it to complete the prologue.
Tips

  • The stars collected act as companions and can form bridges across gaps.
  • Mementos are collectibles found throughout the game, with the first one located on the leaning tower.
  • Challenges, including color-based ones and the 'Stages of Grief', are tracked in the Pause Menu.
