2-3: SHIP OF FOOLS

Guide to ULTRAKILL's 7-1: Garden of Forking Paths. Learn about Mannequins, the Minotaur boss, the Big Johninator secret encounter, collectibles, and rank requirements.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Exit the elevator into a white courtyard and enter the labyrinth.
  2. 2
    In the first room, the left doors close, and the right doors are locked. Proceed through the center doors into a gallery with Mannequins.
  3. 3
    Reach the far end of the gallery to find a red pedestal; a Red Skull Key is needed to unlock the door behind it.
  4. 4
    Return to the first room; the previously locked door is now open. Navigate the corridor and wall-jump to the higher floor.
  5. 5
    In the intersection room, press the button with the Alpha (α) symbol to unlock a door elsewhere.
  6. 6
    Return to the start of the labyrinth. The previously closed door is now open, revealing a room filled with stationary Mannequins.
  7. 7
    Proceed to a kneeling Mannequin behind a gate to obtain the Red Skull Key.
  8. 8
    Upon taking the key, the Mannequins will surround you but not attack.
  9. 9
    Return to the Mannequin gallery room and use the Red Skull Key on the red pedestal.
  10. 10
    This triggers an ambush by six Mannequins. Defeat them to proceed.
  11. 11
    Mannequins are fast, swipe, and can fire Hell Seekers. Hitting them on walls stuns them. Sawblade traps are effective.
  12. 12
    After defeating the Mannequins, the black wall retracts, allowing you to continue.
  13. 13
    Descend the split staircase into a room with a walkway.
Tips
  • Homing projectiles are easier to parry due to their tracking and slower speed.
  • Hitting Mannequins while they are on walls stuns them.
  • Sawblade traps are effective against Mannequins due to their tendency to chase the player.
  • Beat the secret encounter for a reward.
