What each player can do here
- Player one is the Lamb for the whole campaign; the Goat is player two. The update that added co-op made it local only.
- The Goat joins from the pause menu on a second controller. The two players can trade weapons, get extra damage fighting back to back, and land a critical hit when their attacks connect together.
If your skill levels differ: Weapons can be swapped between the Lamb and the Goat, so give the newer player whichever weapon they handle best and keep the two of you close for the back-to-back bonus. The store page also lists a difficulty choice. How to split the roles
Getting in
Part 1 of 5. Open the door and learn the run structure.
- BothAnura's door is on the right north of the cult and needs at least 7 Followers; extra runs through Darkwood are the easy way to find more.
- BothThe four runs get longer: two rooms and a miniboss, then three, then four, and the last run has four rooms before Heket.single source
Run 1: Gusion
Part 2 of 5. Beat the first miniboss.
- BothGusion jumps at you and the landing sends a short shockwave, so don't stand where it is about to come down.
- BothIt lays eggs that hatch into red frogs. Don't let the small frogs pile up, but keep most of your damage on Gusion.
- BothRoll away from the cluster of fireballs it spits every so often.
Run 2: Eligos
Part 3 of 5. Beat the second miniboss.
- BothEligos puffs out a swarm of homing flies. Melee hits clear them; left alone they follow you around.
- BothIts glowing charge leaves two trails of fireballs that fan out. Those can't be destroyed, so roll through them.
Where people tend to fall
- IGN also warns of a quick lunging bite; roll back or aside. TechRaptor says the charge comes more often after half health.
Run 3: Zepar
Part 4 of 5. Beat the third miniboss.
- BothZepar moves like Gusion: jumps with a landing shockwave and keeps bringing in red frogs.
- BothIts explosive insects mark their landing spot on the floor first. Get out of the marked area before they land.
Where people tend to fall
- TechRaptor advises short bursts instead of full combos, since it can start a chain of jumps at any time.
Run 4: Heket
Part 5 of 5. Beat the Bishop of Anura.
- BothHeket's tongue strike is aimed at the spot you stand on. Get off that spot just before it lands; an early roll still gets caught.
- BothIt also slams down from jumps and sends flies. Swat the black swarm flies, and keep running from the exploding ones instead of hitting them.
- BothRed frogs keep pouring in from both sides. Don't chase them; kill a few only when you need Fervour.
- BothAt about one third of its health Heket leaves the arena and two large frog enemies come in. Beat both, one at a time, to bring Heket back.
- BothWhen Heket returns it adds rapid tongue lashes and attacks harder. Stay mobile and finish it.
