Gearing up with the Snorkel and Flippers in Hello Kitty Island Adventure isn’t just for show—it’s your ticket to dive into the vibrant underwater realm of Rainbow Reef and connect with the quirky Hangyodon. Beneath the waves, there’s a treasure trove of secrets waiting to be uncovered, from hidden items to mysterious chests.
To help you navigate this aquatic adventure, let’s walk through how to secure those essential Snorkel and Flippers, unlocking the joy of swimming and diving in the game.
Unlocking the Flippers: A Splashy Beginning
Getting your hands on the Flippers is one of the first steps after tackling the Power Up the Gate quest. Once you unlock the rest of the island, make a beeline for Keroppi in the Swamp area. You’ll spot him strolling along the Lilypad Lagoon path. Present him with his Welcome Gift, and voila—the “Finding Flippers” quest is yours to embark upon.
Securing the Snorkel: Dive Deeper into Adventure
The Snorkel is your gateway to the depths, allowing you to explore underwater realms. While you’ll snag this item a bit later in your journey, the process is straightforward. Focus on unlocking the Deep Diving quest, crucial for attaining the Snorkel. Here’s the inside scoop:
Reach Level 6 Friendship with Kuromi, and the game will queue up the Deep Diving quest for you to dive into. Follow along to complete this mission and claim your prize.
Taking the Plunge: Swimming Underwater Made Easy
Once outfitted with the Snorkel, diving underwater becomes a breeze. All it takes is a leap into any substantial water body, staying clear of shallow pools. Upon entry, you’ll see a set of icons on the screen’s right side, guiding you on the dive controls.
For those using a controller, the right stick adjusts your character’s vertical position, while the left manages side-to-side movement. PC players can utilize the Ctrl and Shift keys for elevation and arrow keys for horizontal moves.
As you immerse yourself, keep an eye on your stamina—a timer gauging how long you can stay submerged before air is a necessity. When the stamina bar runs out, your character will instinctively swim back to the surface. Though this curtails your diving depth, rest assured, it won’t harm your character.
With these tips, dive confidently into the wonders that Hello Kitty Island Adventure has in store beneath the sea’s shimmering surface.
