If you’re enjoying Nikoderiko: The Magical World as much as I am, then you probably have your heart set on getting all the collectibles. There are some tricky ones hidden all over the place, and they’re even harder in this second area, Cobring Mines. If you need to find all the collectibles in Skyward Falls, here’s a walkthrough. Otherwise, read this Cobring Mines all collectibles guide to find the items you need, level by level.
I’ll reveal the locations for all the letters (N, I, K, and O), as well as both keys, and the crystal in each level.
Jump to...
Gloomine Carts All Collectibles
- N – Ground pound the button to activate a whirlwind, then use your glider to glide up and across, then down to the I (on the right).
- I – The I can be collected by jumping over a gap when you’re riding the first mine cart.
- K – Ground pound the button in the middle (NOT the one on the right), and then use your glider to ride the whirlwind upwards. The K is resting above a little platform.
- Key 1 – Keep gliding up from the K, you’ll find a secret area. Move across to the right to find the key minigame.
- Crystal – Getting the timing just right for this one is tricky. You need to do a small jump up from where you see me in the picture, then a longer jump onto that first platform, then jump again literally the second you touch it to jump across to the crystal.
- O – Further along on the same track, you’ll see the O floating between enemies. Time your jump just right to collect it.
Dragon Chase All Collectibles
- N – The level starts with you being chased by a dragon. Run towards the camera, and jump above this spiderweb to get the N.
- Key 1 – When you escape the dragon, you’ll find yourself in this area. Move to the left, and you can just see the key minigame cannon poking up from the ground. Jump into it.
- I – You get to a point where you ride this dragon thing, raising it up and down. The I is in your path, you just need to make sure to stay at the correct height.
- K – At one point, the walls start closing in around you as you go. The K is inside this little jutted area here, you need to pop up and then immediately back down so that the spikes don’t kill you.
- Crystal – Further on from the K, you’ll find the crystal. You need to start heading up pretty much as soon as you’re out from that bit on the left with the spikes.
- O – The spikes narrow down into a split tree trunk, and the O is nice and easy to grab in the middle of it.
- Key 2 – At the end of the level, don’t jump up to get the exit, instead head to the cannon on the right. It’ll fire you to that cannon in the background, which in turn fires you into a key minigame. The key minigame says ‘Find the Key’, but you need to collect all the stars to do so, so make sure not to miss any.
Rope Ride Grotto All Collectibles
- N – Near the start, you climb across a series of ropes. Instead of jumping right onto the one that moves, jump left into this hidden area where you’ll find the N.
- Key 1 – Soon after, instead of jumping off the ropes and into the next area, climb all the way down the final rope. The key minigame is just off to the right at the bottom there.
- I – When you find this area, you need to jump straight down off the ledge to the left. You’ll get fired between cannons until you reach the platform where the I is. When you collect it, don’t jump down. Instead…
- Key 2 – Jump right across from where you collect the I. The second key minigame is on a platform there.
- K – The K can be found by these swinging vines. You need to time it right to jump between them whilst avoiding the enemies (they move up and down).
- Crystal – So, a bit later in the level, you drop down underground, and arrive at a checkpoint that points you right. Do not go right. Instead, go left, and you’ll end up in this little arena. The doors lock, and you have to avid being killed by the enemies, whilst collecting all the fireflies as they appear. Once you collect all of them, the crystal appears for you to collect.
- O – After the crystal room, keep going, and you’ll end up in this section where you fire yourself out of cannons. The O can be seen in the image below, and it circles around. You need to time it right to shoot when the O is just about to be above your cannon. You only get one shot at this, so make it count.
Shadow Fish Lagoon All Collectibles
- N – During the first underwater section, you’ll see the end on the ground there, blocked by a spike. You need to go up over it, smashing the top boulder (that doesn’t have spikes). Then come back down and grab the N by smashing the boulder on the right of it.
- I – The I can be found in this hidden area just after you deposit the glowing fish. Go right instead of upwards, and the rocks will part, revealing the I.
- K- When you see the crystal, look down, and you’ll see the K. Jump straight down over it, and you’ll collect it then land in a cannon, which will fire you back out.
- Crystal – We saw it in the screen shot above, but to get it, you need to go up. Just right of the area in the above screenshot, you’ll find a cannon. Let it fire you up, but instead of continuing the path to the right, jump left. Keep going left until you reach the end of the ledge in the below screenshot, then glide down, and you’ll collect the crystal.
- Key 2 – At one point, you’ll get chased by these large piranha-type fish. When you collect the glowing fish, the large ones will no longer attack you. Double back on yourself, and then head upwards past the fish you see at the bottom of the screenshot. The key minigame can be found here.
- O – This one is sneaky. Near the end of the level, you’ll be riding a seahorse. When you reach the area where spikes are falling from the sky, stay low. There are several secret hidey holes along the bottom. Most just contain fireflies, but one contains the O.
