How to Beat The Ancient Temple Gauntlet (Aztec)

Stuck on the Ancient Temple Gauntlet in Human: Fall Flat? This guide breaks down the Aztec level step-by-step, with tips to help you conquer it.

Alright, so you've hit the Ancient Temple Gauntlet in Human: Fall Flat, huh? Don't sweat it, this Aztec level can be a bit tricky, but I'll walk you through it. Think of me as your buddy right next to you, pointing out all the secrets and shortcuts.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    You'll start off in what looks like a castle, and you'll meet your first guide, Gremlin Gus. Your main goal here is to take down this giant robot that's trying to stomp you. First things first, head up the stairs to your right.
  2. 2
    Find Gus at the first console. He'll give you a quick rundown on the 'spin move' – it's basically your main attack. Give the console a couple of spins to wreck it. Now, you gotta keep moving right, jumping over gaps. Watch out for that robot's arm; it's still active, and there's a searchlight. If that light turns red, duck or move because it's spotted you!
  3. 3
    Gus will mention jumping. You can do a quick tap for a small hop or hold it for a bigger leap. Honestly, a little trick I found is to jump and then tap the jump button again mid-air for a double jump. It'll get you across those bigger gaps. So, jump the first gap, then carefully follow the path, staying low, to the next console. Gus will be waiting there. Spin attack that console to finish off the robot's arm and reveal a hidden room below.
  4. 4
    Jump off the ledge to your right to find that hidden room. Inside, you'll find some 'EXTRA CONTENT' called Mad Doctor's Lab II. There's also a chest with a Bronze PIN. You can also spin attack a bunch of stuff in here – barrels, flags on the walls – to grab E-tickets. These are like in-game currency, so stock up!
  5. 5
    When you're done looting, head back to Gus and the door. He'll explain paint and thinner. You'll use these to solve puzzles. Head down the passage, and you can spin the suits of armor for more items if you want.
  6. 6
    At the end, you'll see a faded gear on a door. Use your paint to fill it in and open the door. Keep going, grabbing paint or thinner from barrels if you need it.
  7. 7
    At the next door, use thinner on the frame to break it down. Continue up the corridor, painting barrels so you can collect from them. Then, thin the floor at the end to make rocks fall, and quickly paint it back in so you can cross.
  8. 8
    You'll enter a courtyard with your first enemy, a Blotling. You can either paint it to make it friendly or use thinner to get rid of it. Look for a bright door nearby, thin it, and inside you'll find the Dark Beauty Castle PIN.
  9. 9
    Backtrack a bit and turn left. You'll see a bright ramp. Thin it out to find more 'EXTRA CONTENT', Dark Beauty Castle II.
  10. 10
    Now, head to the big cage area. Jump onto the small platform next to it to grab an E-ticket. Spin attack the cage three times to lower a catapult with a gremlin. You can either grab the E-tickets from the chest and launch the gremlin, or, and I recommend this, free the gremlin. They're super helpful! Spin attack the gremlin prison to release him; he'll make the catapult safe and give you a Gold PIN.
  11. 11
    Spend some time exploring the lower area. You can spin attack pretty much anything – barrels, plants, you name it – to collect E-tickets.
  12. 12
    When you're ready to move on, head up the ramp you thinned earlier (paint it back in to climb). At the top, thin the blocks so you can pass. Keep going up, collecting items and painting paths until you reach a gear. Spin attack it.
  13. 13
    Continue left, jumping down to a lower platform. Collect any E-tickets you see. Go down the ramp to a big boulder, thin it to find 10 E-tickets, then head back up.
  14. 14
    Keep going left, past some green guardians. You'll see rocks over a gap. Thin the floor next to them so they drop, then paint it back in to cross. Spin attack the final gear, and you can head down and out through the gate into the projector screen. You're out of the castle!

Mickey and the Beanstalk
