Tips
  • The gate stays open for a very short while, so make it quick!
  • Listen to the Prince's conversation with himself near the waterfall; it's amusing.
  • The wooden platforms will fall once you step on them, so hurry.
  • You can actually stay on a stalagmite for a fair amount of time before it falls down.
  • If you can't get the first jump right from a stalagmite, use its shadow to guide you when to jump.
  • To jump from a swinging rope, press X at the apex of your swing.
