Hey there! Ready to track down those elusive Heart Pieces in The Dark Forest? Don't worry, I've got your back. Let's break down exactly where each one is hiding so you can snag them all.

1. Heart Piece #1: The Frogster's Hut

   Alright, so you'll know you're on the right track when you go through a big gate and then get introduced to that bouncy Frogster enemy. Just outside that gate, look for a little path going upwards. It leads to a hut with a wooden door. Give that door a good whack with any attack you've got – the Heart Piece is waiting for you inside!

2. Heart Piece #2: The Spider's Cave

   Keep pushing through The Dark Forest, and you'll eventually find a small cave shortly after you meet the Fire Spitters. This cave has a puddle you can walk through safely. Head towards the back, and you'll see a dead end. There's a spider hanging out there, ready to drop down. You don't actually need to fight the spider directly; instead, hit the green orb on its web. Or, you can just ignore the spider altogether! Just go right to the very end of that dead-end passage – the Heart Piece is chilling there.

3. Heart Piece #3: The Bar Island

   This last Heart Piece in The Dark Forest is in the very final room of the level. You'll know it's the right spot because it's the area with all the Frogsters hanging out in a bar-like setting. My advice? Take out all the enemies first. Seriously, it's way easier to grab the Heart Piece without worrying about getting knocked into that gross death water, which would just send you back to the last checkpoint. Once it's clear, look to one side of the area. You'll see a small island. You'll need to use a barrel to jump across to it. That's where the final Heart Piece is hidden!

That's all three for The Dark Forest! Nice work grabbing them all.
