Alundra 2（PlayStation）
🗺️ Flint's Journey and the Flow of Dungeon Exploration
Protagonist Flint becomes involved in events surrounding pirates and the kingdom, advancing the story by moving between 3D towns and dungeons. Each dungeon involves solving mechanisms to reach a boss in its depths, and the very large total number of maps gives the game substantial scale. If progress stops, check whether a newly acquired power opens more locations.
Alundra 2 — what should I check first in Progression Chart by Dungeon?
After starting, progress through events as Flint in the town and castle of Varuna, meeting major characters such as Alexia, the seventh princess, and the pirate Zeppo before heading to the first dungeon. In the 3D space, rotate the camera to check passages, doors, and ledges you can climb. Conversations often identify the next destination, so avoid missing them. Prioritize learning the controls and the rhythm of puzzle-solving early on.
| Phase | Objective | Checklist |
|---|---|---|
| Early Game | Learn the 3D Action and Controls |
|
| Midgame | Work Through Puzzle Dungeons |
|
| Late Game | Collectibles and the Final Battle |

1. Cannot Solve a Dungeon Puzzle
Cause: Not making use of acquired tools
Solution: Try each tool on the mechanisms and check differences in terrain elevation
2. Taking Too Many Hits in Boss Battles
Cause: Insufficient understanding of attack signals and mechanisms
Solution: Watch the boss's windup before evading and aim for the moment its weakness is exposed
3. Unsure of the Progression Route
Cause: Overlooking the next dungeon
Solution: Check the map and event dialogue and investigate unexplored locations

- ▸ Progress through introductory events for major characters such as Alexia and Zeppo
- ▸ Learn the action and puzzle basics in the first dungeon
As the story develops, varied dungeons appear, including caves, towers, and unusual locations such as the inside of a whale. Their basic structure is to solve mechanisms on the way to a boss in the deepest area. New powers and tools open previously inaccessible places, so revisiting explored areas can help when you are stuck. The maps are large; deliberately explore branches you have not visited.
- ▸ Dungeons generally involve solving mechanisms to reach the boss in their depths
- ▸ Locations range from caves and towers to the inside of a whale
- ▸ Revisiting an explored area after obtaining a new power may open a route
- ▸ Keep unexplored branches in mind when searching large maps
More demanding mechanisms and powerful enemies appear as you approach the final confrontation with the alchemist Mephisto. Even ordinary enemies and traps become tougher late on, so bring ample healing items and proceed carefully rather than forcing your way through. Plan opportunities to save before and after boss battles. With developments central to the story continuing, leave yourself the pleasure of discovering the conclusion if you have not seen it.
- ▸ Even ordinary enemies and traps become tougher late in the game
- ▸ Replenish healing items thoroughly before moving on
- ▸ Secure an opportunity to save before a boss battle
- ▸ Eventually confront the alchemist Mephisto
