How to escape the maze
Step
The whole run comes down to two monsters and two gates. You need a spirit from each monster before either gate will open, so do not head for the hallway until you have collected both.
- Find Efua walk up close until a prompt appears, then hold it down to take her butterfly spirit.
- Find Osei do the same thing: get right next to her, wait for the prompt, and hold it.
- Head for the red hallway look for the long red corridor and move toward the far end where the glowing gates are.
- Open both gates use the two butterfly spirits on the gates to unlock the exit.
- Collect your reward a successful escape gives you the Escaped 'Valouria Lantern' badge and the Valouria Lantern item.

Why private servers make a difference
TipsThe game page itself recommends small private servers, and there are two concrete reasons for that. Monster damage to players drops in private servers. The vehicle spawning and despawning cycle also runs more smoothly there.
- NPC damage to players is lower in private servers.
- The vehicle spawn cycle behaves more reliably in a private server.
What you are actually playing
WarnThe developers state outright in the game description that this is a testing ground for NPC combat, roaming behaviour, vehicles, cameras, weapons, and other systems meant for a future game. All visuals, assets, vehicles, weapons, sounds, and UI are described as subject to full replacement. Going in with that expectation prevents a lot of frustration.
The monsters you will encounter
SummaryEfua and Osei are the same soul split in two halves. Efua carries a marble sword and shows a sorrowful expression; Osei carries marble scythes and wears a wide grin.
- Efua the calm half of the split soul; holds the first butterfly spirit you need.
- Osei the aggressive half; holds the second butterfly spirit.
- Akina Nagahara a separate monster who also roams the map.
- Alice originally from Hiachi's Maze; also active in the same space.
- Roaming state what any monster is doing when it has not found you yet.
- Aggressive state what any monster switches to once it spots you.
