A complete walkthrough for Thornfelt Swamp in Ori and the Blind Forest, detailing how to overcome obstacles, defeat enemies, and find hidden items.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Head east and defeat the multiply slime. Wall jump up to a level with rotating spikes.
  2. 2
    Push the stone past the rotating spikes, just enough to jump over it.
  3. 3
    Go east to the Spirit Well to save and replenish.
  4. 4
    Return to the stone and push it all the way to the left, so it's slightly inside the thorn plants.
  5. 5
    Jump on the stone, then wall jump up. Defeat the slime and continue wall jumping upwards.
  6. 6
    At the top, head east to trigger a cutscene with the Gumon, who possesses the Water Vein. Note this location as the Ginso Tree is here; you'll return after retrieving the Water Vein.
  7. 7
    Head east again, defeating the multiply slime. The Gumon will jump down; follow by dropping down the mid-levels first to collect energy crystals and life plants.
  8. 8
    When you reach the bottom, you'll encounter ground slimes that pop up and shoot. Avoid killing them for now.
  9. 9
    Go west and stand on the broken ground. Wait for a ground slime to fire a projectile, then move. The projectile will destroy the ground, allowing access to a Spirit Container below.
  10. 10
    Head back up and go west. The Gumon will pass through a passage and lower a wall. You cannot destroy this wall with Spirit Flame.
  11. 11
    Run past the ground slimes and jump onto the platform with the glowing stone. Wait for a ground slime to fire a projectile, then move. The projectile will break the rock, revealing another ground slime hole.
  12. 12
    Continue west and jump on the next glowing platform. Position yourself so a ground slime fires a projectile onto it, revealing another ground slime hole.
  13. 13
    Go to the purple wall erected by the Gumon. Wait near it and move when a ground slime fires at you. The projectile will break the wall, allowing passage.
  14. 14
    Go west to reach Moon Grotto.
Tips
  • When dealing with the rotating spikes, push the stone just far enough to clear it, then jump over.
  • Conserve your energy by not fighting unnecessary enemies until you need to.
  • Use the ground slime projectiles strategically to break obstacles and progress.
  • Collect energy crystals and life plants when dropping down to maintain your resources.
