Floor Guides (General)
Welcome, fellow ghost hunter! This section provides comprehensive, actionable walkthroughs for each floor of the Last Resort hotel. Each guide is designed to help you navigate the spooky halls, defeat mischievous specters, and uncover every hidden gem. Remember, patience and a keen eye are your best tools!
General Exploration Tips
- Use your Dark-Light Device frequently: Many hidden objects, doors, and even ghosts are invisible to the naked eye. Shine your Dark-Light in every suspicious corner.
- Interact with everything: Vacuum curtains, open drawers, shake plants, and flash your Strobe Light at anything that looks out of place. Coins, bills, and even hidden Boos often lurk in the most unexpected places.
- Master the Burst: A well-timed Burst (ZL + ZR) can reveal hidden items, stun multiple ghosts, and even clear away environmental hazards.
- Gooigi is your best friend: Don't forget about your gooey doppelganger! Gooigi can squeeze through grates, walk on spikes, and act as a decoy. Switch between Luigi and Gooigi (right stick) to solve puzzles and reach inaccessible areas.
- Collect all the gems: Each floor has six hidden gems. Finding them all is a rewarding challenge and often involves clever puzzle-solving.
- Listen for Boos: When a Boo is nearby, your Poltergust G-00 will vibrate, and you'll hear a distinct "oooooh" sound. Follow the vibrations to pinpoint its location.
Floor-Specific Strategies
Floor 10: Tomb Suites
This desert-themed floor presents unique challenges with its sandy environments and ancient traps. Be prepared for mummies, sand-filled rooms, and clever puzzles involving weight and water.
- Initial Entry & Lobby:
- Upon exiting the elevator, you'll find yourself in the Main Chamber. Immediately use your Dark-Light Device on the large sarcophagus in the center to reveal hidden coins.
- Head to the right into the Scale Room. Notice the large scales on either side. You'll need to balance these later. For now, vacuum up any loose sand to uncover hidden items.
- Unlocking the Pyramid:
- Proceed through the door on the left of the Main Chamber to enter the Desert Oasis. Here, you'll encounter your first set of Mummy ghosts. Remember to stun them with your Strobe Light and then vacuum off their bandages before slamming them.
- In the Desert Oasis, look for a water fountain. Use your Poltergust to suck up water and then spray it onto the dry plants to make them grow, revealing hidden coins or even a gem.
- Locate the large sand pile in the center of the Desert Oasis. Use your Poltergust to vacuum away the sand, revealing a hidden switch. Activate it to open a path.
- Return to the Main Chamber and head through the newly opened path, which leads to the base of the central pyramid.
- Navigating the Pyramid's Interior:
- Inside the pyramid, you'll encounter rooms filled with sand. Use your Poltergust's suction to clear paths and uncover hidden passages.
- In the Sand Chamber, you might need to use Gooigi to stand on pressure plates while Luigi accesses other areas. Be mindful of sand traps that can swallow you whole!
- Look out for the Anubis Statues. Some of these can be rotated or moved to reveal secrets or open doors. Use your Poltergust to push or pull them.
- The Water Chamber will require you to manipulate water levels. Use your Poltergust to fill or drain pools to access higher ledges or submerged items.
- Boss Battle Preparation:
- Before facing the floor boss, the King MacFrights, ensure you have full health and are familiar with your Poltergust's abilities. The boss battle often involves environmental hazards unique to the Tomb Suites.
- Collect any health-restoring hearts from vases or defeated ghosts before entering the boss arena.
