Complete Blue Prince Level 4: The Shadow walkthrough. Find 4x Healing Potions and defeat 4 guards. Includes tips for traps and the mirror.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Start in an area with two gates, left and right. The right gate is currently inaccessible. Step on the switch to open the left gate and proceed.
  2. 2
    At the next junction, go straight first. Open the left gate.
  3. 3
    In the next area, approach a suspicious path. The last two steps are loose slabs, and a trap switch is in the middle. Open the gate, wait for it to fully open, then run and jump over the trap.
  4. 4
    In the subsequent area, you'll find a gate with no switch and two loose slabs. The switch is under the extreme left slab. Drop the slab to open the gate.
  5. 5
    Climb the ledge to find a Life Extension Potion guarded by a cutter.
  6. 6
    Return to the junction and go down. A guard is to your left but is not essential to the level. To the right are a potion and broken slabs.
  7. 7
    Continue forward to encounter a guard and a cutter. Proceed past them.
  8. 8
    Go straight and climb the ledge.
  9. 9
    On top of the ledge, you can fight the guard on the left. Killing this guard and opening the gate will return you to the starting area.
  10. 10
    Alternatively, jump to the right, avoiding ground-level spikes.
  11. 11
    Go straight to find a guard, the level door, and a trap switch. Slay the guard. The trap switch closes the gate behind you and serves no other purpose.
  12. 12
    Head into the next screen. A potion is located beneath you, near a loose slab, useful if you are low on health.
  13. 13
    Proceed to the next screen where the level switch is visible. Climb the ledge and go through the cutter.
  14. 14
    Activate the level switch to complete the main objective.
  15. 15
    As you attempt to leave, a mirror will block your path. Run and jump through it. A shadow will appear, jumping in the opposite direction. Your life will be reduced to one bullet, but you will not die. (If you have one bullet of life remaining when you jump, nothing will happen.)
  16. 16
    Forget the shadow for now and proceed to Level Five.
Tips
  • In the second screen to the left, after the cutter, you will find a Level One-ish structure with a pit. Climbing down yields a Healing Potion, but falling results in death.
  • The gate on the right at the start of the level cannot be opened until later.
  • The trap on the suspicious path requires precise timing to jump over after opening the gate.
  • The switch for the gate with loose slabs is directly beneath the slab on the extreme left.
  • The guard to the right when you first go down at the junction is not necessary to defeat.
  • The trap switch near the level door only closes the gate behind you.
  • The loose slab in the screen before the level switch can provide a potion if you are critically low on health.
  • Jumping through the mirror will reduce your life to one bullet but will not kill you.
