There's a comprehensive guide/walkthrough made by Mr Red, one of Hedon's core testers here, both for Crystal Heart and Bloodrite:

How do I free the legendary axe for the dead minotaur guy? I believe I've found all the iron ore, but don't know if I have any mithril ore for the smithy station surrounded by lava in level 4. And I also need a gear.

[Zan_HedonDev]

For the minotaur, you need to use 4 walls inside his maze that have a different texture, then pull the lever in his room.
You can check your inventory and scroll through it with Z and X, and press ENTER to see what your currently selected item is, so check if you have mithril. Once you do, head to the forge and use the equipment there to get the gear.

Hello and good work with Hedon, I got much fun in this game.
But I'm completely stuck on a level where I need to find a tablet in some sort of tree house. A log tell me that the tablet seems to be very near of me, in a library, but I don't find anything. No secret, no tablets, no clue...
Can you help me?

[Zan_HedonDev]

On the big table in the Library floor, a parchment written by the Cultists says that the Orc Librarian[hedon.fandom.com] hid the tablet before she died, so look close to her corpse, there's also a sound effect to aid you when you're near the spot.

[Castile]

I struggled to find the tablet in the library section as well, wandered around for a good 20+ minutes until I finally spotted it It's actually a book jutting out from the shelves Was really the only point in the game that had me a bit stumped.

In Map07, I have gathered the three clues to spell the word CLOSET. I went to the storage closet in the bar, but I can't find the map it's talking about, just a double secret room with some ammo/powerups and 'tasteful demon art'. Searching around all the crates nets me nothing either.

There's actually a room labeled "closet" close to where you found the 2nd and third notes, in the big open area you'll notice one of the houses has a hatch that goes underground into a little farm, if you exit from there into the base you'll be in the correct room.

Highly recommend working to get this secret by the way as it unlocks a permanent bonus for the rest of the playthrough.

Oh, yup, there it is! Dunno how I missed the label for that room. Thanks a bunch!

I'm struggling to find a fourth secret in map 8 - Pale Wind. I'e found 1. The Crylance at the beginning 2. an icy ledge outside the castle's wall and 3. The dwarf's treasure vault

I even used a magic scroll but can't seem to find it marked on the map anywhere

[Zan_HedonDev]

It's also in the starting area, look for a blob of trees by the road, there's an X made from rocks which you can dig in the middle.

[MrUnbecoming]

I found the 3 parts and the treasure map that was hidden, but when I get to the X on the map, I can't do anything? Do I need to dig or something? Tried spamming F with the shovel selected all around where the X is, and nothing. Is it a tree somehow? Spammed E on the trees nearby as well, I don't know.

Hm nevermind. I ended up activating the automap on Overlay mode in order to make it more precise. I hit e in the right spot and bam. Thanks anyways, guess I asked for help prematurely haha

[Zan_HedonDev]

I will add some extra reach for the script to activate around the spot.

Is there a action to slap around enemies?

That's probably not a bad idea. But people might find it completely by accident, too haha. It was a great secret, I actually had fun trying to figure it out. The end bit was frustrating with the X, but that was because I wasn't precise enough with my location relative to the automap.
