Explore Green Needle Gulch in Psychonauts 2! Find all PSI Cards, PSI Challenge Markers, DUFFLEBAG, VAULT, and more with this detailed walkthrough.

Walkthrough:

  1. Start by going down the slope, jumping onto a tightrope, and swinging across branches to collect PSI CARD (1/27). Note that raft-like platforms sink after landing.
  2. At the end of this side path, collect PSI CARD (2/27) and use a springy plant to return to the main path.
  3. To the left, use a trapeze to reach a tightrope with PSI CARD (3/27). This path can lead back to the entrance but is blocked for exiting.
  4. Resume the main path until you reach a house. Climb the ladder inside, burn branches, and circle the balcony counterclockwise to find the MINI MURDER BUG BOT.
  5. Continue along the balcony to grab PSI CARD (4/27). Drop back to the walkway; the Thought Tuner will ping. Find mental connection nodes to reach PSI CHALLENGE MARKER (1/4).
  6. Continue on the main path, collecting PSI CARD (5/27), until you reach the Heptadome, which unlocks the The Relic Room trophy/achievement.
  7. Inside the Heptadome, collect three PSI CARDs (6-8/27) and use the Otto-matic for shopping.
  8. Return to Ford's mind via the brain tumbler. Select Strike City and teleport to the Downtown Center to find the DUFFLEBAG behind the ball polisher, completing the green checkmark for this level.
  9. Teleport to the Collective Unconscious, return to the Ford's Fractured Mind door, and select Tomb of the Sharkophagus. Walk through the archway, turn right, and open the VAULT in the area (this vault appears on a tombstone and was not present on the first visit). This completes the green checkmark for this level, unless figments were missed during the wall chase or chasm descent.
  10. From the Heptadome, take the right path with large bulbs lining it. These bulbs explode when close, so psi blast them from a distance.
  11. Collect PSI CARD (9/27) to the right and PSI CARD (10/27) to the left and above the path.
  12. Observe a small psychoisolation chamber to your left. Flip the three switches around its perimeter in the order indicated on the panel (purple, orange, blue) to open it and obtain PSI CHALLENGE MARKER (2/4).
  13. Return to the path. Use psi blast to free a trapeze, then use it to reach a path of large venus flytraps that snap shut after landing. Move quickly across them.
  14. Climb vines, drop down, and collect PSI CARD (11/27). Walk up a vine ramp to reach PSI CARD (12/27), then return to where you dropped down and climb back up using the vines on this side.
  15. Climb farther up the vine ramp, using side leaves to bypass thorny blockages. At the top, grab PSI CARD (13/27) from a leaf. Do not knock on the door yet. Use a nearby leaf as a shortcut to drop back to the base of the spiral vine.
  16. At the bottom, use the springy plant to be launched to a trapeze and jump to a cave marked as Otto's Workshop. Collect PSI CARD (14/27) from the walkway and SUPPLY CHEST KEY (1/2) from the workbench inside. Grind the pipes to return to the first trapeze.
  17. Enter the branch under the
