Struggling to find all the Runes in The Dark Forest in Kao the Kangaroo? This guide breaks down the exact locations of Rune #1 and Rune #2 so you don't miss a thing!

Hey there, Kao fans! So, you're diving into The Dark Forest and looking to snag all those shiny Runes, huh? Don't sweat it, they're actually pretty straightforward in this level. I'll walk you through exactly where to find both of them so you can keep that momentum going!

Where to Find Rune #1

Alright, the very first Rune is practically begging you to pick it up. Seriously, it's right on the main path, and you literally can't miss it because you have to jump on the platform it's on to progress. After you've learned about the Eternal World and met the Eternal Gloves (you know, those cool dark crystals that zap you into the past?), you'll encounter your first set. Then comes a second set of these crystals and platforms. You'll need to jump and use your tailspin attack to hit them. The Rune is chilling on a small platform right in this section. Just keep your eyes peeled, and you'll grab it without even trying.

Where to Find Rune #2

This second Rune is waiting for you right near the very end of the level, in the final room before you make your exit. Picture this: it's a bar-like area, and you'll have a bunch of Frogsters to deal with. Your first priority is to clear them out. Once the coast is clear, the Rune should pop up not too far from the exit. Walt will even give you a little nudge and point it out. So, just finish up those Frogsters, and you'll see it waiting for you!

That's it for The Dark Forest Runes! Pretty simple, right? Now, go on and grab 'em!
