For chapter 2 we will have 5 achievements to get. "It Tasted Fabulous!", "Hello Dolly!", "I Burn You!", "Find Mr. Midnight!", and "Toad on Board!"

In The Woods

You'll start the chapter with Fran crawling out of the sewer and come out next to a pile of trash. To the right of the piano there is a little door that you can pick up.

Going further to the left into the forest we can take our pills to go into the ultra-reality and see some luciferns surrounding a key on the tree. If you try to take the key the luciferns will stop you and eventually talk about a comb that you need to get back from a thieving rat.

Take your pills to go back to the normal reality and then keep going further to the left. You'll run into a giant ant (Antonio the Greatest) and a large Beetlepig. Talk to Antonio and avoid any options to end the conversation early. He'll tell you that there are no more berries and that the Beetlepig has eaten Mr. Midnight, and that if you cut him open you can probably save Mr. Midnight.

Keep going further to the left and you'll find an axe stuck in a tree trunk. Grab the axe and then take your pills to go into the ultra-reality. An old well will appear instead and you can break the top to find that it's actually bricked up. No not that way.

The owl will get spooked from the noise and fly away, dropping a feather that you can pick up. Go back to the normal reality and then return to Antonio.

Try to use the axe to kill the beetlepig, but it'll run, and Antonio will be asleep. Use the feather to tickle him and wake him up so you can ask him "What should I do?" and he'll tell you to give the beetlepig some berries, so he'll stay still long enough for you to kill him.

You'll remind him about what he told you a minute ago, that there are no berries left. He'll point you towards his house and if you go that direction, you can eventually run into his house. Well, maybe it's not his house, but a house.

The door is locked, so you'll need to use the axe to break the door down. That'll knock the door handle off which you'll need to pick up.

Once inside the house you can grab the glue from in the wardrobe. Then climb up onto the bench and grab a piece of meat that's hanging.

Now take your pills to go to the ultra-reality and you can throw the meat at the ants to get them off of the exterminator. He has a bag that you can pick up and take a mouse trap out of as well as an exterminator's card.

Go back to the normal reality, well as normal as it gets, I guess, and inspect the tiny house in the corner of the room. Inside will be a family of pinecones who happen to have the berries that you need.

You'll want to put the mouse trap on the floor in the middle of the room. Then click the kid to knock them over, causing the mother to come help them. While the mother is helping the child grab the berries. The father will get stuck on the trap when he tries to stop you and the mother will be distracted. If you don't get it quick enough that first time you can knock the kid over again and try again until you get the berries.

With the berries you can head back to Antonio and feed the beetlepig. Then attack it with the axe to cut it open. Inside of the beetle pig is just a rat. Not Mr. Midnight.

So then go talk to the rat and he'll take you to the well. Talk to him again and question him about the comb that he stole. He'll ask you to comb him first to make him look good, so just do that and he'll give you the comb.

Now take that back to the Luciferns, use the pills to go to the ultra-reality, and use the comb on the luciferns.

Now you can grab the key and head back to the well. Combine the glue, the door handle, and the tiny door in your inventory to make a magic door. Place that on the side of the well and then use the key to unlock it. You'll then have a short cutscene before you wake up in a kitchen.

The Twin's House

You’ll first need to close the windows and then you can go to the shelves to the left of the cooker to pick up the baking powder and knife. To the right of the cooker you can pick up the cauldron.

Going to the left further into the kitchen we can grab the matches sitting on a table next to some flowers. Go through the spice rack to pick up salt and pepper from there as well as open the drawer of the white and green box. It will have a rare seed that we’ll need and then we can leave the spice rack.

Then turn the faucet on and fill the cauldron with water.

Now we can proceed further to the left into the house. We can check out the blue picture closest to the door for some clues later on. Pick up the vase of ashes from next to the fireplace, and then start clicking on the cupcakes on the large table until you finally try one to get the “It tasted fabulous!” achievement.

Then climb the stairs so you can grab the broom and open the drawers to grab the black candles from in there.

Keep going to the left into another room and after a quick cutscene you can grab the tweezers from in the dresser.

Head back to the right to the area where the stairs are and you can pull the rope hanging down on the left side. That will bring down a ladder that you can use to climb up to the attic.

Go up there and pull the rope to turn on the lights to reveal a cage under a blanket. Pull that off and you’ve found Mr. Midnight! You can talk to him and head back downstairs.

The Ritual

You’ll see that now the twins are down here, and they’ll talk to you about performing a ritual for them before they leave to gather some more of the ingredients.

Now back in the kitchen you’ll see the weird skeleton guy pop his head in to say hi, and then duck back out.

You can now go outside through the window and you'll be on next to some water. Grab the piece of wood from the broken pier and you can speak to the toad. He'll explain that he's also trapped and wants to leave, and that you need to do a different ritual in order to leave.

You can place that rare seed you picked up earlier out here in the water where the moon reflection is and that will grow a blue rose. Grab that and then head back inside.

Take your pills to go into the ultra-reality and you'll fall down to the bottom of a well. Start climbing up the bricks that are sticking out of the back until you reach a gap that you can't get across.

Put your board down there and now you can cross! Instead of using your knife to cut the rope at this point you'll want to use your matches to burn the rope in order to get the "I burn you" achievement.

Now with that bottle at the bottom of the well you can head down there and try to grab the bottle. A frog will come out and try to swallow it before dying and the bottle will return to floating on the water. User your tweezers to take out the spell from inside the bottle.

Now go back to the normal reality and you can start checking off the rest of the list. Once of which is blood from the executer of the spell, so we'll use the knife on Fran to get a bit of blood.

Now go to the kitchen and you'll light the stove with your matches. Then put your filled pot of water on the stove. Add in the blue rose, salt & pepper, and Fran's blood.

Then we can use the ashes on the ground where the black and white tiles are, place the black candles down there, and then light them with the matches.

Now we'll have to go back to the far left of the house where there's a typewriter and use the spell that the twins gave us there so we can write down that we need the hair from the twins on it. Now with the tampered recipe we can go back to the room with all of the food and talk to the twins. Use the tampered spell to convince them that you need their hair and then put it into the pot.

You can then tell them that it's ready for them and they'll go over to the ritual spot with you.

Take the pot down for the potion and dump it on the twins. As you do the ritual the twins will be gone, and they'll leave behind the golden key.

Take that with you upstairs and into the far-left room to use on the lock above the mirror.

That will get you into this cog puzzle and you'll need to move the pieces around to get them all looking like this finished part I'm showing now. I ended up having to do a lot of extra moves to get them to this point, but just know this is where they all need to end up.

Now we can grab the cage key and head up into the attic. Once back in the attic you can check out the stroller for the "Hello dolly!" achievement.

Then use the cage key on Mr. Midnight's cage and you'll get "Find Mr. Midnight!" as well.

You can then head back down to the shoreline where the toad is and talk to him. He'll end up saying he's too small to help you, but if you hand him the baking powder we picked up earlier he'll get a lot bigger.

Then he'll give you back your family photo and a book. Then head on out with the toad and we can get "Toad on Board" for completing this mini game. It's essentially just frogger with a couple of very short levels so it shouldn't be that hard to complete.

The Tree People

Now you'll get to the new area and attempt to go across a bridge. Go through there and you'll have a cutscene. Once you can move again, you'll be in control of Mr. Midnight.

You'll need to move the dress that's covering Fran's face to see that she's now a tree person, then she'll ask you go get her purse.

Go off to the right and you'll see some water where you can grab a crystal, hit the lever to extend the pier, and then put the crystal in the cogs to keep the pier extended. Now you can grab the purse and hand Fran the family photo. This starts another set of conversation and cutscenes leading into Chapter 3.
