How To Navigate The Stomach Mines In Mina The Hollower
Mina The Hollower is a game that wants you to hate it, but its charm and addictive gameplay will keep you coming back. One of the trickiest areas to navigate is the Stomach Mines, which you’ll encounter after reaching Bone Beach. To get there, you’ll need to find the area with a sparkly floor, located in the upper east corner near the beached creature.
Once you fall through the sparkly floor, follow the path to enter the Stomach Mines. You’ll find a burrow in the center of the area surrounded by moving walkways. Pass through the burrow to enter a replica of the same space, complete with more sparkly floor to explore.
The Stomach Mines are designed to challenge your problem-solving skills. You’ll notice that certain areas are only accessible by falling through the sparkly floor again. To unlock the path ahead, you need to hit two buttons located at the top of the room.
Before you attempt to reach these buttons, clear out any enemies in the middle of the room to avoid unnecessary distractions.
To reach the first button, use the bat handles on the left side of the area to fling Mina over the gap and into the square-shaped hole. For extra rewards, fall down the smaller rectangular hole just below this to collect a golden Skull.
Once you've reached the square, use the bat handles again to send Mina flying through the top square.
The second button is a bit more challenging to access. After passing through the central burrow, head to the right-hand side of the area. When the bat handles in the bottom corner begin to despawn, let Mina fall through the floor. You should land to the left of the key. From there, use the purple ball to bounce to the switch.
Once you stand on the switch, it will begin to spawn more purple balls on the top conveyor.
When you have two or more balls on the top conveyor, bounce back down to the original spot where you fell. Take out the obstacles by hitting the bottom one, then bounce up several times to reach the platform with the second button.
Use the purple balls to jump upwards and press the button.
After pressing the button, return to the center area and proceed north through the rest of the Stomach Mines.
