Looking for a step-by-step guide to help you conquer Araha: Curse of Yieun Island? Look no further! This article provides a detailed walkthrough and reveals the locations of all the important items in the game. Get ready to master the game with this comprehensive guide.
Asylum – Intro
- As soon as you load in, follow the dirt road until you reach a gated off building.
- Follow the stone wall around to the left and you’ll eventually spot an opening in it. Go through and interact with the metal doors to enter the asylum.
-
While exploring the early parts of the asylum, be sure to explore rooms I don’t mention and pick up 7 Candles. You will need them shortly to obtain a key item.
- Once inside, make your way down to the Director’s Office.
- The first thing we need to do is open the locker that’s inside this room. You can get the code by looking at the back of the photo in one of the cabinets, and under the 2 trophies in another cabinet. The code will read left to right; photo, left trophy, right trophy.
- Once you have the code, plug it into the locker. Grab the Camcorder from inside, as well as the Ward A Key.
- Make sure you also grab the Lighter off of the table before leaving the room.
-
I HIGHLY recommend skimming the Asylum – Ritual Items section now. There’s a lot of spots for invisible, randomly placed items that we can check as we make our way through the game, especially for the Pocket Watch, instead of backtracking later. It will save you a bit of headache.s we progress, just to be safe.
- Head back to the reception area and unlock the double doors leading towards the Cafeteria.
- From the Cafeteria front doors, go down the hall on the right all the way to the bathrooms labelled “T2” under the 1F Pharmacy. In the Women’s Bathroom (the one with stalls on both ends) will be a Pharmacy Key. As soon as you enter the room, your camera will click on. Follow the footprints to the correct stall.
- Go over to the Shower Room and fish the Frog out of the water.
- Enter the Pharmacy and look for a scale where you can place the Frog on to. The weight it reads will be the code to the Director’s Office safe, so keep it in mind.
- Head back to the Director’s Office and unlock the safe inside. Grab the Remains and the Funeral Home Key.
- Go down to the Basement (just past the double doors we unlocked earlier) and open the door.
- Opening this door will allow enemies to start spawning.
- As you enter the basement, go through the doors on your left and down the hall to the Mortuary. Enter the left side first, and walk up to the window to trigger the body inside to sit up. You need to do this to open the next room.
- Now go into the next room and into the body freezer. Around the room will be 7 empty candlesticks. Hopefully you read my message above and have 7 candles to slot into them. If not, get searching!
- Once you’ve done that, one of the freezer doors will open.
- Grab the Remains and the 2F Keys from inside.
- Head back to the staircase and go up to the 2nd floor now. Up here is an invisible head ghost that can only be seen through your Camcorder.
- I highly recommend going through the double doors on your right first and pugging a Rattle (if you have one) into the statue to eliminate all ghosts for a short time. If you have extra Rattles, you can come back periodically to keep refreshing the ward.
- Be careful, not only is there the head ghost, but there’s also red string bell traps around the second floor. Walking through one will alert the head ghost (if she’s active) to come investigate the area. You can cut them by interacting with them.
- Now head over to the north section of the second floor and make your way towards the Pharmacy. Once you reach the hallway outside of it, you’ll see a bunch of dolls lining the hall and surrounding rooms. When you pull up your camera, one of them will turn its head. You need to locate which one that is and grab it (you can only grab it while your camera is up).
- To the top left of the same hall will be a pair of Pliers on the floor. Grab them.
- Head over to the north-west side of the 2nd floor and enter the X-Ray room to find a spot tp put the baby down.
- Once you do, go next door and wait for the X-Ray results to pop onto the board.
- Finally, go back to the baby and cut it open to get your next Remains.
If you’re missing any of the Ritual Items, scroll down to the next section to find their locations.
Asylum – Ritual Items
You need to be using the Camcorder in order to see any of these items.
Inside the 2F Lost and Found. This location never changes.
Somewhere on one of the many wall clocks in the building can be a Pocket Watch. You can tell what area it’s in by using the camcorder to locate a large blue fog. Once you see it, investigate nearby rooms for a clock. I recommend checking every hallway as you progress through the game. I won’t include areas like the rest of the items, because there’s a LOT of clocks and I’m unsure which ones can spawn the watch. However, the blue fog is very hard to miss.
The lipstick can spawn in any bathroom sink in the asylum. You’ll know it’s the right one, if a lipstick doodle appears on the mirror, as seen below.
#1 + 2) 1F across from the Staff Locker Room (the two rooms labeled T1).
#3 + 4) Down the hall to the right of the Cafeteria. They’re labelled T2 and are directly under the 1F Pharmacy on the mini-map.
#5 + 6) Directly across the hall from the Second Altar Room in the basement.
#7 + 8) Down the hall from the Library and the statue that can ward of the evil spirits.
#9 – 10) To the east of the 2nd floor. Directly below the Pharmacy.
Around the asylum are 10 missing ceiling panels. When you view them through the camera, there will either be a hanging body, or the Hand Mirror. The location is randomized.
#1) Outside of the 1F Convenience Store.
#2) To the right of the 1F Cafeteria.
#3) In the small side room of the Third Altar Room in the basement.
#4) In the hallway leading to cold storage in the basement.
#5) Inside the Men’s Bathroom, directly across the hall from the 2F Library.
#6) On the south side of the 2nd floor, going towards the Fitness Room.
#7) Inside the large room to the north of the 2nd floor.
#8) Above the warding candle to the very north of the 2nd floor.
#9) Inside the 2F Pharmacy.
#10) Inside the storage room across from the 2F Treatment Room.
These will spawn in tiny ceramic bowls scattered around the asylum. They can sometimes be very hard to see.
#1) Inside the H2 room of the Staff Locker Room area. To the left of the fridge.
#2) Inside the large room to the north of the 2nd floor.
#3) Inside room 214 on the 2nd floor.
#4) Inside the fire extinguisher case, across the hall from the 2F Pharmacy.
#5) Inside the 2F Treatment Room, near the X-Ray area.
The Forest
- Once you have 4 Remains and all 5 Ritual Items, head back to the Pharmacy hallway on the 2nd floor.
- Locate room 216 and head inside. Grab the Remains and the Pot from inside.
- Once you’re back outside, go through the gate directly ahead of you and follow the trail to a building labelled “Kiwon-Am” on the map. Go inside and down the stairs.
- Follow the linear path until you reach a large room. Pull up your camera and look to the board on your left to find an invisible trail. Interact with the board to find a hidden vent behind it. Go inside and follow the path from the board.
- Once you’re on the other side of the vent, grab the skull from the room you exit into to, then you need to quickly backtrack all the way to the start of the building and escape! Once you’ve exited the vent, there will be a burning monster chasing behind you, so make sure to haul ass.
- Back outside, walk straight and you should see 3 gas cans. Grab one and keep this area in mind, You need to come back to grab these one at a time.
- Make your way down to the east side of the map to find the Crematory.
- Go inside and grab the wire off of the floor, then go around the left side of building to find a spot you can plug the wire into.
- Pour your gas into the generator, then go back for your next can. Do this until all 3 cans are emptied.
- Enter the building and interact with the body to burn it.
- We now need to find and break 7 pots. Describing their locations in this giant field is kind of hard, but I’ll do my best.
#1) Exit the Crematory and run along the left-side wall. Follow this until you spot the pot.
#2) In the same field as the previous. To the left of the bunker building.
#3) Make your way back towards the asylum, and keep your eyes trained to the right side of the road. The pot will be under the crow tree.
#4) Once you reach the asylum stone wall. follow it to the left.
#5) Head back to the hole in the wall where we originally entered the asylum. Facing the front doors to the building, go right to find a small courtyard.
#6) Double back to the road where we started the game. This pot will be on the right side, next to a trail sign.
#7) Keep going back towards where you started the game. The final pot will be on the left side of the road next to a stone marker.
After the next series of cutscenes, you’ll be back in the forest during the daytime. Follow the road back to where the asylum used to be and walk into the middle of the field to end the game.
