Kibombo & the Gabomba Statue

Kibombo at night

1. Everyone is up at a sacred ceremony and they won’t let you through.

2. Go to the bottom-left corner of the village: a coiled rope. Lash it to climb up to a ledge. Go right by hopping across the columns to the right side.

3. Go all the way up to more columns that cross left to the roofs of some huts. Hop onto the ledge on the left and keep going up.
4. The ceremony begins. Piers is up top. Talk to him, watch some of the ceremony and keep going up: a pillar to push left with Move. When you do, Piers talks to you again and joins the party, bringing two Djinn: Spring and Shade.

5. Keep going up past the pillar and walk around the big statue in the middle. On its right side there’s a vine down and an X on the ground: Scoop the X and stairs into the statue appear.

Inside the Gabomba Statue

1. Go left along the only path, pass between some machinery and climb the stairs to the next floor. To the right, more stairs lead up.
2. The cogs won’t let you through because they turn the wrong way. Go to the top-left corner and Lash the rope to stop them. Pass between them to the stairs in the top-right corner.
3. Up there you’ll see a Djinni you can’t reach yet. Go down, left and up between the cogs to another staircase. On the next floor, as you head left, a mouse appears and hops across the cogs to the right side.
4. Do the same: get on a cog turning your way and hop from one to the next to the right side.

5. Climb down the stairs; on the floor below, take the next stairs down and go down and left to a colour-changing cog with a stake on each side. Pound the right stake.

6. Go back up two floors to the mouse room, cross the cogs to the left side and take the stairs on that side down. Take the lowest stairs down and keep down and right to the colour cog: now Pound the left stake. All the cogs reverse direction.

7. Go back to the mouse room and take the stairs at the bottom up. On the next floor, pass between the upper cogs (if they block you, you haven’t reversed them) and take the top-left stairs.
8. A floor with a statue against the wall (nothing to do). Go up through the top-right corner: scenes. The ceremony fails because the circuit painted on the floor is broken.

9. The circuit puzzle:
   1. At the top there is a column and two arrows on the floor. Pound the column: several circuit tiles rise up.
   2. Stepping on the arrows turns the raised tiles one way or the other.
   3. Goal: close the circuit so at least three sparks reach the figure in the middle.

10. Wait for them to repeat the ceremony: the sparks run along the circuit, the statue opens its mouth and the priest comes in and talks to you.

11. You end up in a room where the priest leaves through a new door. Follow him: an elevator takes you down to a secret chamber.
12. Take the jewel from the statue on the wall: you speak with the spirit of the great Gabomba and receive the Black Orb.
