Minesweeper, Memory Tiles and Ice Rink

The three golden-stair challenges, their goals, chests and exits.

Golden stairs

From the second floor, a golden stairway can lead to an optional game room, once per expedition and outside a boss floor. Ordinary stairs still let you continue. Read the entrance parchment for the room’s exact controls.

Minesweeper

Cross a field of concealed tiles. Use the clues about neighbouring danger rather than assuming the shortest route is safe. Completing the crossing unlocks the chest; the instructions explain revealing and marking tiles.

Memory Tiles

Observe the tiles and find their pairs. Remember positions instead of racing. The chest opens when every pair is found; a wrong pair does not automatically lose the whole expedition.

Ice Rink

Moving on ice starts a slide until an obstacle. Use the room’s supports to reach the other side. On touchscreens, select an aligned tile to choose direction. Finishing the crossing unlocks the chest.

Take the reward before leaving, checking slots and weight. The game room is not the dungeon’s final objective: continue the expedition afterward. If a control seems ineffective, reread the room instructions rather than treating it like a normal wild battle.
