The game features a total of 9 stages. Clearing each stage rewards you with 200 Oroberyl, 20,000 T-Creds, various experience items and character upgrade materials. After completing all 9 stages, you will receive a frosted medal.

Next, let’s introduce the puzzle-solving process of Chapter 1 Pressure sensitive for everyone. The main objective of Stage 1 is to control these movable boxes with your character and place them onto the pressure plates to trigger the mechanisms.

Upon entering the stage, interact with the box on your left to put it into follow mode.

After jumping over the wall, you’ll enter a new area.Control your character to activate the box in front of you and put it into follow mode, then enter the elevator.

Take both your character and the box up to the second floor. Once you arrive, guide the box and place it on the pressure plate—this will open the door to the next area.

After entering the newly opened door, there is a two‑tier movable box on your right. Interact with it to put it into follow mode, then place it on the corresponding pressure plate to open the new door.Before proceeding to the next area, you can use this two-tiered box to jump onto the platform and open a treasure chest.

Go through the newly opened door and turn right twice in a row to find an interactive control panel. Interacting with this panel will open a new gate.This new gate has no threshold, so you can guide your two-tiered box out of the room and into the outdoor area.

Place the box at the position shown in the image. You can then use it as a step to jump over the gate.

Locate the control panel shown in the image and interact with it to open the metal gate. After opening the metal gate, move your character to the left and activate the elevator to descend to the lower level.

Then activate the box to put it into follow mode, and guide the box into the elevator to go up to the higher level together.

 Place the box on the pressure plate to open the gate. Entering the gate will lead you to the end point. Also, don’t miss the treasure chest on your right.
