Mechanical Snowfield (City)

As Snowbloom Palace draws closer, the intensifying snowstorm makes its silhouette ever harder to see. The feeling that something is about to happen grows stronger. Alongside the excitement of nearing the Zombie Lair, there's now a hint of unease.

Level brief

As Snowbloom Palace draws closer, the intensifying snowstorm makes its silhouette ever harder to see. The feeling that something is about to happen grows stronger. Alongside the excitement of nearing the Zombie Lair, there's now a hint of unease.

Back to the matter at hand: Wiremoss seems to have some connection to the zombie driving that strange Magnet Truck up ahead.

    Built from solid titanium alloy, it's guaranteed to survive an explosion or two without a scratch.

    It doesn't just attract projectiles. When necessary, it can pull in zombies from far away too!

    Wiremoss said to look for Magnet-shroom in a basement downtown... Does this place even have a basement?

  2. 1
    Power Peony

    This is downtown. If there is a basement, its entrance must be really well hidden.

  3. 2
    ——Homing Thistle

    Wiremoss wouldn't make up a message from Magnet-shroom just for fun. There must be an entrance.

    ——Red Stinger

    There must be a way in. Wiremoss wouldn't mess with us about something like this, would he?

  5. 3

    Then we'll have to think carefully about how to get into this basement.

    Come to think of it, Mechanical Snowfield does have an urban legend about an abandoned basement.

  7. 5
    CD-shroom

    An... urban legend? How does it go?

  8. 6
    Power Peony

    Something about arranging the floor tiles in the right pattern, then short-circuiting the wiring to reveal the entrance.

  9. 7

    It seems this urban legend is true after all.

    Maybe. We don't know how many more times Magnet-shroom used the clock to switch after this.

    The four places that hold Magnet-shroom's memories have more meaning.
