Roki walkthrough - Chapter 2: Deep forest

In this guide I'll walk you through all quests, tasks and puzzles and solutions to them quest by quest. This is my first guide ever, so any feedback is welcome :)

The guide for the 3rd and last chapter of the game is in the works. This chapter was massive, literally the biggest chapter in the game and took you around the whole map, so it a lot of time to combine together. Enjoy :>

NOTICE: This is not a completionist guide for achievements and collectables, so not all of them are mentioned - feel free to add your own discoveries not mentioned below in the comments :>

MAIN STORY

There aren't specified 'main' and 'side quests' in Roki, but it's easier to separate this way. These are the main story progressing quests, the bigger ones that will take you around the map a lot. I will provide info on which side quest's completion is required in every section for convenience.

Rootway restorer

You have to free and connect all of the Waytrees to the mother tree.

Reward:

You can now travel between locations through the connected roots of the Waytrees.
Achievement - Connected

Completion sequence:

Go towards the shore and to the big stone on the right. There you will find a tiny collectable - old fishing lure.

Then go to the boat and take an oar . Use it to pry open the door in the left tree.

Go inside. Get frightened by a giant many-eyed tree.

After you spoke to the Tree of Many, go back to the portal clearing. You will see the tree door on the right side is now open. Go in and run around to scare the ravens. However some ravens are sitting high up, so you need to find something to throw at them.

In the location 'Trollhilde's bridge' go to the left of the cabin and climb the ladders to the raven nests. Search through the nests and I the farthest one you'll find a hair pin

Go to the church entrance and lock pick the lock on the gate using the hairpin

Go up to the Waytree on the left side and run around to scare all the ravens - the tree will wake up. But it's still not connected, since the Mother tree is asleep.

While you're in the churchyard go behind the church and interact with a stone Troll. You need to find all of them for an achievement 'Testrollsterstone'



While you're in the churchyard, read all of the tombstones to get an achievement 'Grave thoughts'.




Go inside the tomb on the right and pick up the eggshells collectable in the right bottom corner.





Go inside the Trolhilde's cave under the bridge (complete the 'Trollfriend' quest to open) and pick up pebbles from the floor.




While you're in the troll cave, pick up the Troll Snot collectable from the wall.




Now go to the Great Mother Tree and throw the pebbles at the ravens above. The Mother Tree will wake up and connect to the Tree of Many and the Waytree in the churchyard. From now on, the other Waytrees you wake up will connect automatically. You can use the doors in the Waytrees to travel through the Wayroots - shortcut portals around the map. After the Mother Tree wakes up, the door on its side opens and you can now venture to the other side of the map.



After all the raven are gone you also get a badge - Raven botherer. Wow, you have really achieved something in this life!


After you've completed the 'Tomte Summoner' quest and sharpened the dagger , go to the Old Mill's Waytree and cut the wines on it. Run around to scare the ravens and the Waytree will wake up. It is now connected to the Great Mother Tree.

There's a Waytree in the church area. Scare away the crows and cut the wines to free it.

With your sharp dagger , go to the Old mill, go out through the back entrance ad cut the wines blocking the path. Now you can go through. Reach the infected pond and entrance to the Stag guardian's den. On the very left you will find a Waytree. Scare away all the ravens (there's one sitting on the far-away root behind the circle of stones that's not very obvious) and cut the tentacles to open the doorway. It's now connected.

Now go to the very left of Trollhilde's bridge, past the Snowed-in cabin and use the dagger to cut the wines.

Go to the left of the staircase to find a stone Troll and interact with it. You need to find all of them for an achievement 'Testrollsterstone'. Then follow the staircase to the wolf ruins.

For the directions on the puzzles in this area refer to the 'Wolf waker' quest section.

After you solve all the puzzles you will reach the Mountain Plateau and see a waytree on the right. As always, run around to scare the ravens and cut the wines holding the door. The tree wakes up and you now have a shortcut to the wolf area.



Now go left and interact with giant ice hands. They will turn and form a bridge. Walk into the cave. You will get an achievement 'Follow the flow'.



Keep going left and reach a well, in which a Fossegrim sits and plays an harp. He tells you that he's seen a troll around with the Wolf stick, which you need.

Talk to Trollhilde to find out that she gave the wolf stick to Trollhulde.

Talk to Trollhulde to find out that she threw it in the old pool. She will help you to unlock the pond area. There you will find a Waytree. Cut the wines and scare away the crows to free it.



This should be the last Waytree. You will receive the badge 'Connected' and can now use all of the rootways to travel the map faster.



The quest is done!

Wolf waker Pt. 2: Escape the Nightmare

However, it can't move. There's something on the wolf's face. Come closer and interact with it. It's a Nattamare Parasite and you need to remove it.

When you come up and touch the parasite you'll be thrown into a nightmare. You need to solve the puzzles inside to get out.

You will end up at home, go to the well and pick up the safety rope . Then interact with dad and then with the well. You'll end up going inside the well.

Your goal is to find and get mom's pendant. Picking up the eyeliner pencil on the left side. Use it on the hairbrush on the right side to use it as a boat.

Sail up and right to pick up the red nail polish . Go to the photo of Tove and a cat and interact with it to enter the memory.

In the memory, pick up the blue ring from the table, a straw in the red cap, a straw from the shelf to the right of the table and the cat collar from the cat ghost Tove is holding. Also, go up to the calendar on the fridge to find out Tove's birthday - the 17th of some month, you'll need it later. That's all for this area, interact with the camera mom's holding to return to the well.

Now sail to the shore that's down and right, where you will find another photo - this time from camping. A stone hand is blocking your path, it seems bored. Give it the cat collar and run past it while it's distracted. Go up the hill and pick up one of mom's rings . Then return down the hill and enter the photo.

Pick up the comb from dad's shirt pocket. Then go behind him and interact with the fishing box to find out that the last two numbers of the code are 05. Lastly, pick up one more straw from the yellow cup near the tent. Now you can return to the well through the camera.

Now sail to the shore up and right. Grab the pearl necklace and watch another memory.

Sail to the shore that's down left and give the hand the pearl necklace to distract it.

Then, look at the gap and combine the 3 straws with the safety rope to make a handful of tied straws . Use the make-up bridge to cross the gap. Go to the photograph and enter the memory.

Go up to the locked box and enter the code - Tove's birthday which you now know is 1705. Get a sharp fishing hook from it. That's the only thing you need here, so you can leave the memory. This time, before returning to the boat grab the pearl necklace from the hand - you'll need it.

Now you have everything you need to get the locket. Sail to the up and right shore again and use the comb as a ladder to climb the wall. Go left and use the fishing hook on the hand for it to drop the locket.

Go back to the boat and sail to the central island with the 3 hands. Use the ring on the left hand to complete the set. Combine the pearl necklace with red nail polish to paint it red and give it to the right hand. Now you can grab the gold heart locket and get the last memory. Interact with the well in the memory once more and the vision will be over.

You have conquered the nightmare and cured the wolf. She is now free of her sleep and you got a Nattamare Parasite that you need for the 'Seeing but not being seen' quest.

This quest is now complete.

Bear rouser Pt. 1: Find the guardian.

Awaken Jötunbjörn - the bear guardian

Reward:

The Bear guardian is now awake and will help you if you wake up the Stag guardian.
You get a Nattamare Parasite.

Completion sequence:

The Bear guardian sleeps in his slumber under the Forgotten church. To get to him you need to find a way to the church's underground maze.

Go to the very top of the church through the ladder in the back. Use the ladder at the top to climb over the giant bell.

Use your dagger to cut the rope holding the bell to collapse it. This will break your poor tiny eardrums the floor of the church and give you an entry point to the basement. You also get a badge - 'Bell ringer'

Go downstairs and go down through the gaping hole in the floor you little vandal. This is where the puzzles start.

Go near the bear statue and see that there are 4 slots, 2 already have stone block inside them. Take these blocks , but you still have to find the other 2.

One is in the crypt itself. Go left to the next room and cut the webs with your dagger. There's a stone block on the tomb, pick it up.



Go a bit more left and find a collectable Tomte hat near the column in the foreground. If you can't see it flash the intractable items a couple of times.




The other stone block is hidden away in the Nokken pond. If you don't have it yet go through the 'Nokken liberator' quest to get it.

When you have found both missing clocks, return to the crypt. You need to figure out the right order for the blocks.


Go to the church's main room and look at the memorial plates on the floor - you're looking for the one that has a crescent moon symbol. Read the moon plate and find out that the birth or death year of the Bear guardian is 1623 - that's the order for the blocks.



Come back to the crypt and insert the blocks in the right order by the number of marks on them: 1-6-2-3.



After the combination is entered correctly the bear statue's eyes will light up and a secret passage will open. Proceed deeper into the crypt.



In this room, you see an incomplete constellation on the floor, but circular parts are missing.
One disk is already in place - pick it up - but you need to find 3 more. They're scattered around the map, but one is here in the crypt.

Go back to the previous room and go right beyond the bell. Go right and pick up another disk

Another close-by disk is in a tomb outside the church. It's peaking out from under the dirt pile.
Use your trowel to dig it out. If you don't have a trowel yet, you need to go to the Poisoned forest area behind the Old mill and solve a puzzle to open a spiral staircase (the hint is on the rock near the purple pond). While you're there don't forget to free the Waytree to travel faster.

One more disk is hidden in the Mountain Plateau and you need a torch to retrieve it.
If you haven't yet picked up a bone go to the cave to the right of the siren pond and pick it up from the bone pile in the back.

If you haven't yet picked up a rag , go to the Yule cat cave and pick it up near the entrance.

Combine the bone with the rag to make a torch and use matches to light it up. Now you can go into darkness.

Go to the mountain plateau and go to the left to climb the wall. You will see a dark cave - use the torch to light it up. Inside you will find the last disk you're looking for.

Go deeper into the cave and pick up the ram skull from the nest (you need it for the 'Seeing but not seen' quest).




Go a bit past the nest to pick up a collectable - a very sharp tooth.





Return to the crypt with all four disks and assemble the constellation:
Here's the order for an easy solve:


After the disks are placed in the correct order the platform you stand on will move and sink to the cave system below the church who thought it was a good idea to build a church above a cave system????

Go forward and up the stairs to reach the sleeping Bear guardian. Us your dagger to cut the webs on the horn. Then blow it.

However, instead of the Bear, you awaken something else. A giant hecking spider, how nice!

Proceed to pt. 2 of this quest.

Bear rouser Pt. 2: Fight the Spider

After the cut-scene, you wake up tied up with a Tomte who helps you free yourself. You need to get rid of Widow Drau to move forward and she took all your things, so you have nothing, No worries - there are a couple of things laying around.

Go right and pick up the mirror going from-down-left and attach it to the handle over the light source in front of you. The light will hit the crystal and the spider will back off a bit.

Now go to the very left and open the hatch in the wall to free another light source. It will also hit the crystal and the spider will back even father off.

Now climb up and right from where you're standing and grab another mirror , this one directs from-down-right.

I will use bigger icons for this section for ease of explanation.

Go back to the crystal in the middle and climb up and left, open the hatch. Then climb right and open another hatch. Climb under the right hatch and take another mirror , this one directs from-left-up.

Return to the 1st floor and attach the left-to-up mirror to the handle left of the crystal, it will direct the left light source through the hole up. Then go left and climb over it, attach the down-to-right mirror to the handle in the light source to direct into the crystal.

Now climb down and go to the right source of light, detach the down-to-left mirror. Climb up and right under the hatch and install the mirror on the handle in the light source to direct light through the hatch and into the crystal, the spider backs off further.

Climb over the second crystal and left to the hatch over a webbed Tomte, open it. You can't free the Tomte yet since the spider took all your things. We'll do it later for now we mercilessly ignore its suffering.

Go back to the first floor and take both mirrors from the left light source. Attach the left-to-up mirror to the handle right in front of the hatch to direct the left light source up.

Climb back to the webbed Tomte and ignore it once more and go left past it, attach the down-to-right mirror to the handle in the light source to direct it through the hatch and into the crystal. The spider will continue backing off.

Climb down to the 2nd crystal and under the right hatch to retrieve the down-to-left mirror then climb back up to the 3rd crystal and to the right to install it back on the right light source. The light hits the crystal and the spider jumps off to the right.

Climb over the 3rd crystal and right to get your things and dagger. Don't worry, the spider can't reach you since you're standing in the light. Then climb up and left to the hatch in the wall that Tomte opened when it was freeing you. Cut the webs on it with your dagger and open it to hit the spider with the light right in the face, she flees.

After you go up and left, talk to Tomte standing near the exit. He offers to help, but he's too weak alone - you need to free the other 3 Tomtes in these caves.

The first one is right there on the left, use your dagger to cut the webs.

The 2nd one is sneaky and hid, from where you stand climb up and right through the hole in the ceiling to find another Tomte. Free it with your dagger .

The last Tomte is the one you've been so cruelly ignoring this whole time. Climb down o the 3rd crystal and left to find and free him.

Return to the Bear guardian and run to blow the horn once more. This time the Bear wakes up and finally does its job smashes the spider.

Talk to the bear, listen to its whining and say you take no heck from anyone. Interact with the parasite on its face to enter the nightmare world again.

Proceed to pt. 3 of this quest.

Bear rouser Pt. 3: Escape the Nightmare

The vision starts in a strange version of the cabin. Go to the left and down through a hatch in the floor.




In the basement, go right and take off the sheets from the piano. You try to play it and can't remember the tune. You need to recall the melody Tove's mom used to play.



The room transforms and you see 3 doorways. One of the doorways leads to the ground floor of the cabin, one leads to the outside of the cabin, and one leads to the upper floor of the cabin.

Go to the upper floor first and pick up the wind chimes near the bookshelf on the left side of the room. Flash for interactive objects if you can't find them.

Now go outside and hang the wind chimes on the hook to the right of where dad's sitting.

Pick up the cheese plate and the coffee from the floor near him.

Go up to the porch and pick up a flowerpot . Then go back to where dad's sitting and use the radio. It will play music several times, but keep using it until the weather forecast tells you that there'll be windy weather at 12:45.


Go up to the clock left of the radio and change the hands to show 12:45. The wind will blow and sound the wind chimes.

You will get a song sheet - it's the first part of the melody you're trying to remember.


Now go to the ground floor of the cabin. Pour the coffee into the cat's bowl on the right of the door. No, you're not trying to poison the cat, you just need the empty coffee cup .

Then put the cheese plate in front of the mouse hole to the left of the door to lure a mouse out.

Then go left and come up to a cat staring at a birdcage. Cover the bird with the dust sheet you got from the piano. The bird will sing and you will get the second music sheet - the middle of the melody. The cat will jump over to the mouse and knock over a pan. Pick it up.

Now go back to the upper floor where Lars is playing the drums and give him all 3 loud things you've collected - a flowerpot, a coffee cup and a pan. He will play a tune and you'll get the last song sheet - the end of the melody.

Go back to the piano and place the song sheets on it in the order they're in your inventory. If you got them in a different order than in this guide, then here's the needed order:






After you play the melody you will get a memory and the nightmare is finished. The Bear is now free of its evil grasp and you now have 2 Nattamare Parasites for the 'Seeing but not seen' quest.


Now go free the Stag guardian before it's too late!

Stag Stirrer. Pt 1: Fighting the fungus

You need to wake up the last guardian.

Completion sequence:

You need to reach the Poisoned Forest area and complete the Seeing but not seen quest to be able to wake up the Stag guardian.

After you get both masks from Shroomi they will ask you to bring 3 Nattabloom samples to revert its own power on itself.

Go to the left area again and put on the Mask of Seeing to reveal what's hidden. Talk to the trapped creature again. It tells you that it got trapped and forgot its Magical staff in its home by a tree, it also gives you a key to its house.



Go back to the main area and come up to the pond. Use the mask of seeing again to reveal a bridge of mushrooms. Go up and you will reach the new upper area.






Use the Seeing mask again to see a bridge over the lake and cross it. Come up to the top left house and use the key you got from the trapped Alva.




Get Alva's magical staff and return to the secret lab for some mischief. Use the staff on Shroomi and insult his pride. You get a hidden badge 'Growing pains'


Now go back to the trapped Alva and use the staff on the mushroom it's trapped in. After you free the creature it tells you to keep the wand and use its power of growing and ungrowing for good.

After you enlarged the fungus you can use it as a bridge to cross to the right side of the hill in this area that was locked before. Go right and use the mask of Unseen to pass the mushroom fence, then use the Mask of Seeing to reveal a hole in the ground. Go down. Use the staff on the mushroom to make it small and dig it up with your trowel . You get a handy small mushroom

Return to the surface and go to the pond on the right. Use the Mask of Seeing to reveal another handy staircase of mushrooms. Go up and keep using the wand to enlarge the tree shrooms to build a path for yourself until you reach the Nattabloom. Use your dagger to cut off a sample of it.

Now go back to the main area and tynify and dig out the 4-headed mushroom leading to the left area - you won't need to return here anymore.

Go to the right area and Use the mask of Seeing to reveal bridges and mushrooms as you go. Go left and up the enlarged mushrooms to cross the gap. Then plant the 4-headed mushroom in the dirt pile and enlarge it to reach the treeshrooms. Cut off a sample from another Nattabloom using your dagger.



Before leaving this area go to the pond and get the mushroom to the right of the pond and to the left of an Alva house.





Go to the area over the pond from the main area and dig up another mushroom on the right side near the Alva houses.



Go to the entrance to the area and plant the 3 mushrooms in the order from shortest to tallest from right to left. Enlarge all three to fill in the gaps between the treeshrooms.


Now right and up the hill to reach the bridge and enlarge the treeshrooms as you go to reach the 3rd and last Nattabloom. Cut a sample of it with a dagger.

Come back to Shroomi's hidden lab and put all three Nattabloom samples in the cauldron.
Shroomi does its magic and you get a bottle of poison .

Shroomi says the poison has to be delivered deep into the fungus's flesh to work, so combine the poison with your dagger to get a poisoned dagger

Now go through the big doorway in the main area to reach the sleeping Stag guardian.
Use your now poisoned dagger to cut the fungus on the horn. You don't get to speak to the guardian this time and get thrown right into the nightmare.

Stag Stirrer. Pt 2: Escaping the Nightmare

You end up at the cabin again. Pick up the doormat laying on the floor to reveal a sapling. You need to help it grow.

Go to the fridge, open it and pick up a bag of fertilizer

Now go outside and to the very left of the area. Pick up the watering can from near the car.

Now go to the well in front of the house and use the watering can on it to fill it with water

Go back inside and use both fertilizer and water on the plant to make it grow. Then climb up the tree.

You will see a doorway right in front of you but something's missing. First, place the doormat in its rightful place. But you see that the door itself and the handle for it are still missing. Interact with the doormat again to find the key underneath it.

Rip off the drawer handle from the drawer right of the door, you vandal.

Go left and pick up the lock from the diary in a fungus pile.

Come back to the doorway and use the drawer handle and the lock you found on it to materialise the door.

But it's still locked, so you need to use your key to open it. Instead, you open a freaking portal to nowhere.

Go through the portal and end up in the cabin to see a younger version of Tove. She's not happy with her toy because it's missing its hoops - you need to find them.

There's a cat bowl near the door - use the watering can on it to fill the can with water

Go back through the door and use the full watering can on the sapling at the right edge to reveal the second half of the tree.

Go all the way right and climb up and go right again to find little Tove scraping the table with knitting needles not creepy at all. You need to find her something better to draw with.

Go a bit back and climb the same branch that led you here, but this time all the way up. There you will find an old cupboard. Interact with it to get scared heckless and get one of its doors

Now climb all the way down and go to where you see a cradle in between two branches. You will see Tove's dad painting a cradle with crayons. Tsk tsk, he's not very bright, is he? You need to find him a brush and a can of paint. You can also see one of the hoops you need over the cradle.

Now go and climb up the left branch. At the top use the cupboard door to breach the gap and continue going left. You will find dad trying to fix the car by pouring paint into it...Whatever floats your boat, I guess. Pick up a paintbrush from the toolbox.

Now go to the nearest branch (before the gap) and climb down. Pick up a screwdriver from the huge scarf on the right - it also opens a shortcut to this area.

Go left and see Mom sitting with a tool that is most definitely not for knitting.

Go right and climb down the scarf. Go back right to Dad painting a crib and give him the paintbrush . Pick up the crayons he dropped.

Now go back and right to where Tove is scaping the poor table and give her the crayons . After the image transforms, pick up the knitting needles and the red hoop from the table.

Now go back to where Mom is knitting and give her the knitting needles . After the image transforms, pick up the spanner from the floor and the blue hoop from the chair.

Climb the branch near the scarf to where dad is fixing the car and give him the spanner , also place the screwdriver in the toolbox. Get the paint can and the yellow hoop after the image transforms.

Finally, come back to where Dad is painting the crib and place the paint can on the newspaper to the right. After the image transforms you can take the last green hoop

Go back through the portal where Tove is playing and put the hoops on the cone in the right order.
Solution: blue - green - yellow - red

You get another memory and the curse breaks. The Stag guardian is now awake.

You get to see Dad waking up. Interact with the sled tracks to get an idea of what happened. Then you get another cutscene. Back to dad - interact with the broken sled and move on. Interact with the marbles. Cutscene. Back to dad - interact with marbles to the very left of the screen. Cutscene. Pick up the oar from the left tree and go to the lake and use the boat to cross the river. You end up at the castle with Tove and can now play both of them.

This is the end of the 2nd chapter of the game, the guide for the 3rd chapter is already in the works.

SIDE QUESTS

There aren't specified 'main' and 'side quests' in Roki, but it's easier to separate this way. These are the smaller quests which you usually need to complete to get rewarded with the items needed for the main story progression. I will provide info on which side quest's completion is required in every section for convenience.

The side quests aren't arranged in any particular order, though I tried to sort them by when you can complete what since some can only be completed later in the game.n

Also, most quests don't have names, those that do are named after the achievements you receive for completing them, the ones that don't I named myself for ease of referral.

Wolf waker Pt. 1: Find the guardian

Awaken Jötunulfur - the wolf guardian

Reward:

You awake the first guardian and you also get a Nattamare Parasite you need for another quest.

Completion sequence:

After you have sharpened your dagger , go to the very left of Trollhilde's bridge, past the Snowed-in cabin and use the dagger to cut the wines. Go through to the wolf ruins.

When you get to the top, you'll be stopped by the first puzzle - moving wolf sculptures. You need to arrange them to match the shadows drawn on the wall when you look at them from the round tile with an eye symbol (it's the viewpoint mark).

Quick solve: Move all the wolves the closest to the moon and then move them 2-4-4-2 times back from left to right respectively.


After the puzzle is solved, the door under the moons opens. Go through the door and you will see a second puzzle with a constellation broken into rings. The constellation you need to build is the second on the right.

The dials move 2 rings at a time each:

• Leftmost dial moves the 2 inner rings (1 dark ring and 1 light ring) - 1 & 2
  
• Central dial moves the 2 dark rings - 1 & 3

[Qamok]

great guide. I dont know what wolf puzzel want from me. And answer from guid is "after you solve puzzel..." Its explain everything 0/10

[PewienCzlowiek]

"solve the puzzle and walk through the door" you wrote the walkthrough so you do that. Walkthrough my ass.

[bnui]

Don't forget that before you throw the coins into mama kroke, bring them to hilde. She will give you 2 back as a reward and you'll unlock a hidden achievement!

[lamer]

This walkthough isn't finished aside from it's order it's missing a lot of the loot pieces in the journal

[badfluffy]

Great guide, even though the order is confusing and the back and forth inherent to the game is exhausting. It is missing a big one though and of course I only found out after I moved on to Chapter 3 so I'll have to replay to get it:

Once you have the coins you need to return them to Hilde before you put her to sleep. If you don't, you're locked out of 2 achievements for the whole playthrough.

[Wingol]

This was grreat, much obliged.

[delroy]

Thanks again!

[Fjolnir]

There's an in-game map available at all times, so I didn't think it needed to be included in the guide. And yes, I'll start the 3rd chapter soon :>

[delroy]

Great work on chapter 2’s guide! Minor suggestion - include a map if you can to make it easier to find each location. Hope chapter 3 is coming soon ;)
