Lost Woods Puzzle Guide

One of the toughest puzzles to figure out in Cadence of Hyrule is the Lost Woods puzzle which you need to get through to reach the Lost Swamp. The Lost Woods puzzle can be found on the western half of the map, next to the beach. It only has one entrance and once you enter it the game will try and confuse you by repeating the area you were in. Our Cadence of Hyrule Lost Woods Puzzle Guide will help you navigate it.

To begin with you need to enter the Lost Woods, as previously mentioned it only has one entrance and that is from the far left hand side of the map via the beach. Once entered (see screenshot above) activate the Sheikah Stone and clear the enemies, once you have accomplished this go into the room. There you will find Cadence who will tell you that 'If only there were some clue as to which way to go...'

When you leave the room you will have to kill all the enemies again. Once you have managed to do this head south until your reach a tree stump. Before you can enter it though you will have to kill all the mushroom enemies that are around it. Inside the tree stump you will find a talking Scrub along with Tingle who is fast asleep. Approach the statue at the top then walk away so it explodes and sends the stone ball rolling through the musical notes which is the Lost Woods theme. You just have to move to the beat so the green lines get into the golden triangle. It doesn’t have to be dead in the center but if you miss you have to reset.

This may take you several attempts before you do it but when you doTingle will wake up and give you Tingle's Dowser. This device tells you through vibrations which way to go. Assign it to either X, B, Y or A, then leave the tree stump and kill the mushroom enemies that are outside once more. If you activate Tingle's Dowser when you approach one of the four exits to each room you will feel four heavy vibrations in your controller, this indicates the correct way to go. Feeing light vibrations means it's the wrong way. The Cadence of Hyrule map is randomly generated so each time you play the game it will be a different route. All you need to do now is kill the enemies at the Lost Swamp entrance when you reach it and you will have found the temple.
