3-1: CRUELTY SQUAD

Complete walkthrough for ULTRAKILL's 7-1: Garden of Forking Paths. Includes enemy details, collectibles, and strategies for defeating the Minotaur and Big Johninator.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Exit the elevator into a white courtyard and enter the marble labyrinth.
  2. 2
    In the first room, the left doors close, and the right doors are locked. Proceed through the center doors into a gallery with 6 Mannequins.
  3. 3
    Reach the end of the gallery; an empty red pedestal rises. You need a Red Skull Key.
  4. 4
    Return to the first room; the previously locked right door is now open. Proceed through a narrow corridor, wall-jumping to a higher floor.
  5. 5
    Enter an intersection room with an Alpha (α) button and a blue pedestal. Pressing the button unlocks a door elsewhere.
  6. 6
    Head back to the start of the labyrinth. The previously closed door is now open, revealing a room filled with stationary Mannequins.
  7. 7
    Approach the kneeling Mannequin behind a barred gate to obtain the Red Skull Key.
  8. 8
    Return to the Mannequin gallery room and the red pedestal. Six Mannequins will break from their poses and attack. Defeat them to proceed.
  9. 9
    After defeating the Mannequins, the blocked doors retract, allowing you to continue.
  10. 10
    Descend a split staircase into a room with a walkway and two more split staircases. Mannequins will ambush from below.
Tips
  • Mannequins are fast and fragile. Hit them while they are on walls to stun them. Sawblade traps are effective due to their tendency to chase.
  • Homing projectiles are easier to parry due to their slower speed and tracking.
  • The secret encounter involves the Big Johninator.
