Guide Gris through the Prologue, mastering movement, collecting Stars, and uncovering Mementos. Learn how to complete the 'First Stage of Grief: Denial' and 'Red - A Color Has Been Brought Back' challenges.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Begin by moving Gris to the right. She will eventually stand and gain the ability to jump.
  2. 2
    Backtrack slightly to a pillar near where Gris first landed. Observe the collapsed statue. Let Gris fall near it and stand up without touching the controller to complete the First Stage of Grief: Denial challenge.
  3. 3
    Continue forward until you reach a pulsing light, a Star. Collect it.
  4. 4
    Proceed past the first Star, looking for crumbling platforms. Jump across them to the left until you see a black mountain.
  5. 5
    Climb the black mountain and collect a second Star.
  6. 6
    Continue to a large gap. You will need more Stars to cross.
  7. 7
    Climb the stairs on the left to a large leaning tower. Ascend the zigzagging stairs to the top. Your two collected Stars will form a bridge to a nearby smaller tower where you can collect a third Star.
  8. 8
    Before returning to the gap, mount the first staircase on the leaning tower and jump left. Activate the symbol here to collect Memento #1.
  9. 9
    Return to the gap. Your three Stars will form a bridge. Cross it and continue right until you reach a crumbling stone hand. A cutscene will play, and you will complete the Red - A Color Has Been Brought Back challenge.
  10. 10
    Continue to a giant staircase leading to a temple. At the top, note the pictogram on the back wall.
  11. 11
    Proceed past a blood-red tree, where your Star companions will leave you to form a constellation.
  12. 12
    Continue down the stairs and head right until you slide down a red mountain.
  13. 13
    On flat ground, continue right to a black tower. Climb it to the top, where a cutscene will play, marking the end of the prologue.
