Stahlfritz Panzier

Phantom's Canyon (Theme )

Entering through a small crevice somewhere in the desert, you find yourself in something like the real world Grand Canyon in Arizona. Most of the puzzles and traps revolve around parkour or stealth with the occasional invisible platforms much like the 'leap of faith' scene in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. Failing traps will slowly trigger invisible creatures to come after you, but in reflection of the real guy's laziness, they'll leave you alone if you either work hard enough or get your act together.

The Crystal is in an oasis at the end of the canyon with seven waterfalls (like the real Seven Falls in Sabino Canyon). worth noting is how the crystal is like the fayth from Final Fantasy X. The figure appears to be missing a half which leads us to...

Estellia Corlyson

Temple of the Tiger (Theme )

You find this dungeon as a ruined city with heavy mayan inspiration. Here, you face puzzles and traps that can really only be resovled by brute force; the trickery lies in the red herrings (one chamber will have a pool full of them with the door at the end) and just how simple they are and causing the explorer to overthink them (ever play Take Something Litreally ?). The entire place rewards cutting the rope and the pragmatic solutions. Example: an intricate door surrounded by various keys that are all within a tiger's mouth and a nonsensical poem in the center. You can either try to solve the poem (which is totally unrelated btw.), or just kick at the door until it breaks. Failing the puzzles will cause the place to start exploding, simple as that. Just like the previous character, Estellia's crystal is in a position that would fit alongside Stahlfritz if the two crystals were put next to each other.
