On September 27, the indie title, Tunic. This game inspired by The Legend of Zelda and touches of Dark Souls is one of the great surprises of this year. With a very entertaining gameplay and a captivating aesthetic.
Do not be fooled by its rather childish appearance, as it is quite a challenging experience. Especially due to the fact that there are some aspects that the game does not tell you, but that will make this odyssey easier for you.. That’s why we’re here to help you become a legendary fox warrior.
Tunic combat is more complex than you think
Apparently the fight Tunic it is quite simple. By simply pressing a button you can make three-hit combinations with your sword. Although this will get you out of trouble many times, it is not the only option and it is not the best either.
Throughout your adventure you will find several objects, of which their function is not explained either. We recommend that you try them all as they can be quite useful with different types of enemies. For example, round bombs have a fire effect for a few seconds, so using them against shielded enemies gives a huge advantage..
The small fox dolls are used to create decoys for the protagonist. Throwing one immediately will cause enemies to attack it and not you. This way you can take advantage of the respite to heal yourself or even cause damage to them while they are unaware. This tool also works with bosses, so it is highly recommended to have several in your inventory.
Although this track does give it to you Tunicit is very hidden and you may only find it by experimenting. But on your journey you will find a dagger that freezes enemies and a scepter that shoots fireballs. You can use both at the same time to launch ice balls. You just have to assign these objects to buttons that are next to each other to be able to press them at the same time.
As for the defense, you will surely be tempted to twist and turn as in Dark Souls. The twist has its advantages, as it gives you a few seconds of invulnerability. However using the shield is also very advantageous. Especially in the last few bosses who seem like they can get to you no matter what you do. Never stop trusting your shield.
You can give some advantages to the little fox
if you already started Tunic You will surely see that there is a part of the inventory with a box that looks empty. This is because you can put a kind of talismans in that space. You will find several of them on your journey, which are like squares with different shapes.
These figures give a hint of what they can do, although they are revealed to you more clearly later. Some make your potions give you magic instead of health or can help you get through areas with poisonous gas. As you get the hang of what each one does, it’s best to experiment.
You can also expand the slot available for talismans, to equip more than one. You achieve this by throwing golden coins into the different wells that are scattered throughout Tunic. In the end you will be able to equip up to three talismans at the same time, which is very useful in the later part of the game.
Tunic’s man pages are your best friends.
Another collectible very present in Tunic are the pages of your manual. Although at first you do not pay much attention to them because they are in another language, analyze them very well. Many times they will contain the necessary clue to get out of the mess in which you find yourself.
To open the manual, just press a button and flip through it. One thing they also don’t tell you is that you can see it more quickly by tilting the lever. That way you won’t have to go through one by one.. Although you will still have to use your memory to remember where certain things are.
This could count as a spoiler for Tunic, but it is one of the biggest mysteries in the game. Near the end you’ll come across a strange gate in the mountains, which the manual pages indicate is important. However, there is no clear explanation of how to open it.
The clue is on every page of the manual. In one of them you will find a kind of map on this door with numbers. These represent the page number where the clue is. Look in each one for the gold-colored patterns and if possible write them down in real life to have the way to your lock. Once opened, you will find the last page of the user manual. Tunic.

Having all the manual pages will not only help you move forward and feel like you’ve accomplished the impossible. Collecting all of them will unlock a secret ending where you won’t have to fight the final boss. Which is quite difficult. So the search is worth it.
Stick to all the walls you find in Tunic
In Tunic players have no control over the camera. This one stays somewhat stationary and just follows the player. That is why it is important to explore and stick to all the walls you find. Since the world is full of secret passageways that lead to treasures or the manual pages that we already mentioned.
There are also some somewhat secret stores where you can restock on items for your adventure. Even if you explore very well you will find a small corner where you can slightly change the appearance of your hero. It may sound difficult, but we assure you that you will not regret doing it.
Usually Tunic is a game that will test your cunning and your ability to think outside the box. We hope that this guide will help you make your adventure on this mysterious island more bearable.
