Shin Onigashima Guide Chapter 3

The next morning, Donbe and Hikari set off on the road into the mountains. Along the way, they find the ruin of a wooden shack.

• みる (Look) → いえ (House)
• みる (Look) → まるた (Log)
• とる (Pick up) → まるた (Log)

Donbe picks up two heavy logs from the ruin. Under the logs, they find a bomb.

• みる (Look) → いえ (House)

There's an old trunk buried in the ruins, but it's too heavy to contain clothes.

• あける (Open) → つづら (Trunk)
• みる (Look) → へんなつつ (Unusual Pipe)

Inside the trunk is a hammer and a strange pipe. Upon closer inspection, the strange pipe is actually a telescope.

• ひとかえる (Change Character)
• とる (Pick up) → とおめがね (Telescope)

Hikari picks up the telescope.

• いどう (Move) → きた (North)

There is a sheer drop on the road into the mountains. There doesn't appear to be any way to cross it.

• みる (Look) → がけ (Cliff)
• みる (Look) → がけ (Cliff)

Hikari inspects the wall and spots two unusual indentations in the cliff face.

• ひとかえる (Change Character)
• つかう (Use) → まるた (Log)

Donbe inserts the logs into the indentations, creating steps across the chasm.

• いどう (Move) → みなみ (South)
• とる (Pick up) → かなづち (Hammer)
• とる (Pick up) → ばくだん (Bomb)

With Donbe's hands free, the children return to the ruin to pick up the hammer and the bomb they found.

• いどう (Move) → きた (North)
• いどう (Move) → きた (North)

Donbe and Hikari come to a fork in the road.

• いどう (Move) → みぎのみち (Right Path)

Along the right path, the children reach a dead end. Hikari notices that it's hot here.

• みる (Look) → がけ (Cliff)
• みる (Look) → がけ (Cliff)
• みる (Look) → がけ (Cliff)

There's no way to see the fortress from here, and no way to climb the cliff. After inspecting it closely, they find an unusually hot patch of rock.

• つかう (Use) → かなづち (Hammer) → がけ (Cliff)
• つかう (Use) → かなづち (Hammer) → がけ (Cliff)

Donbe hits the cliff with a hammer, causing a geyser of hot water to gush out of it. Donbe is so surprised, he drops the hammer. The sulphurous clouds smell very strong.

• いどう (Move) → もどる (Back)
• いどう (Move) → ひだりのみち (Left Path)

The pair return to the fork and head along the narrow left path. Any unnecessary movements here would cause them to fall into the chasm below.

• いどう (Move) → のぼる (Climb)
• いどう (Move) → のぼる (Climb)
• みる (Look) → みち (Road)

There is a smelly sulphur ball on the narrow ledge.

• とる (Pick up) → いおうだま (Sulphur Ball)
• いどう (Move) → のぼる (Climb)

The children reach the bridge leading to the Oni Fortress.

• わたす (Give) → いおうだま (Sulphur Ball)

Donbe gives the sulphur ball to Hikari.

• ひとかえる (Change Character)
• みる (Look) → とりで (Fortress)
• みる (Look) → とりで (Fortress)

The Oni Fortress looks sturdy, but the base looks very weak.

• つかう (Use) → とおめがね (Telescope)

At first the fortress is swarming with Oni, but they disperse. It seems they do not like the strong smell of sulphur from the hot spring. The Oni leave their post to seal up the hot spring.

• はなす (Talk) → どんべ (Donbe)

They make a plan: Hikari will go inside the fortress, find the bronze bell and escape. Donbe will then destroy the fortress from the outside.

• いどう (Move) → とりで (Fortress)
• いどう (Move) → すすむ (Forward)

The inside of the fortress seems to be completely empty. However, Hikari cannot shake the feeling she's not alone. A Tengu secretly appears behind her.

• つかう (Use) → とおめがね (Telescope)

The unusual Tengu says "Oooh! What's that?", scaring Hikari.

• はなす (Talk) → てんぐ (Tengu)
• はなす (Talk) → てんぐ (Tengu)
• はなす (Talk) → てんぐ (Tengu)

When all the Oni left, the Tengu snuck inside the Fortress. It's very interested in Hikari's telescope. Hikari tells him it makes far away things look bigger. He begs Hikari to let him have it.

• はなす (Talk) → てんぐ (Tengu)

Hikari agrees to give him the telescope if he tells her where the bronze bell is being held. He doesn't want to say for fear of angering the Oni, but lets slip that it's in the back room.

• わたす (Give) → とおめがね (Telescope)

To thank her for giving him the telescope, the Tengu offers to give Hikari a bag of ash containing the remains of an invisibility cloak he burnt up by mistake. However, he got it mixed up with a bag of ash he stole from a flower-blooming old man. Hikari must choose which bag to take.

• あお (Blue)

Hikari turns invisible.

• いどう (Move) → おくへすすむ (Further Inside)

An Oni stands guarding the bronze bell. It seems some of them did stay behind.

• とる (Pick up) → どうたく (Bronze Bell)
• つかう (Use) → いおうだま (Sulphur Ball)
• いどう (Move) → にげる (Escape)

Hikari grabs the bronze bell and throws the sulphur ball. The Oni recoils from the smell, giving her enough time to escape.

With Hikari safely out of the fortress, Donbe prepares to destroy it.

• つかう (Use) → ばくだん (Bomb)
• いどう (Move) → にげる (Escape) – select quickly

Donbe escapes and the fortress explodes, crumbling to the ground.

The Tengu emerges from the exploded fortress. Hikari points out that the bronze bell is empty. The Tengu reveals that the souls are sent to Onigashima in the West.

Taking the bronze bell for safekeeping, the Tengu flies away.
