Navigate Gumo's Hideout in Ori and the Blind Forest, defeat the first boss, and unlock the double jump ability.
Walkthrough
- 1Head east from the Map Stone, jumping over spikes, to an area with moving stone platforms.
- 2Navigate the first section with horizontally moving platforms, then drop down past vertically moving platforms. Time your descent to avoid being crushed.
- 3At the bottom, go right and continue east to encounter your first boss.
- 4To defeat the boss, a long purple slime that pops from the ground: move slightly to the side when it appears, then spam Spirit Flame while dodging its projectiles and the resulting explosion blobs. Repeat this process.
- 5After defeating the boss, wall jump up the right side to collect the first Keystone.
- 6Return to the horizontally smashing stone platforms and find the Map Stone Fragment on the other side of the large pillar.
- 7Go back to the Map Stone and insert the fragment to reveal the map of the area.
- 8Head east again, past the horizontal smashing platforms, to reach vertically smashing pillars. Constantly move right to avoid being squished.
- 9On the other side, kill the frog and spider, then drop down.
- 10To the left, you will see two moving pillars. Jump over the first spiked pillar to grab the second Keystone, then jump back to the right when both pillars are at their midpoints.
- 11With both Keystones, head to the Spirit Gate and open it.
- 12Past the gate, jump over a spike platform and wall jump down to the bottom level, moving side to side to avoid spikes.
- 13Go east, past slime and a frog, to reach a new skill tree that grants the double jump ability.
- 14Practice double jumping in the area and collect the Spirit Container to the northwest.
- 15To return up the chasm with spike platforms, use timed double jumps, performing the second jump at the apex of the first for maximum distance.
- 16Back near the spider and frog, double jump up to the frog's previous perch and continue double jumping upwards.
- 17Kill the multiplying slime, drop down, and double jump to the Energy Cell.
- 18Return to the center area with the Map Stone. Double jump to the right wall and wall jump up to a vertical log.
- 19Double jump from this log to the vertical log to the west, performing the second jump at the end of the first for maximum distance.
- 20Jump to the level on the right, go west, drop down, and kill the spider.
- 21Continue dropping down and go east to a passageway with vertically smashing stones. Time your movement to pass through at the first opportunity.
- 22Drop down in the center to avoid being smashed, then wait for the pillars' timing to jump up and go to the right side. Drop down again.
- 23To the right, you will see an Energy Gate (requires 4 energy to open). To its right is an Ability Cell. Slide down the wall and double jump over the spikes when near them.
- 24Head back to the center and open the Energy Gate. Push the stone to block the laser.
- 25Go back to the top of this area and around to the other side. Kill the spider, then push the stone down to the level with the laser.
- 26Push this stone into the center gap to block the laser on the level below.
- 27Drop down to the bottom level, dodging projectile plants by double jumping.

- Spam Spirit Flame even when running away from the boss.
- Constantly press right in the vertical smashing pillars area to avoid being crushed.
