ORDER OF THE SINKING STAR · NORTH

The Hearty Heroes of Hauling Walkthrough

Head north from the Crossroads for puzzles built around heroes with different abilities. This guide brings Heroes 1, Heroes 2 and Heroes 3 into one northern directory, so later characters and monster boards are not hidden behind the first group.

Updated · Regional guide and community board directory

61 Demo boards and 61 community routes are available across the three northern groups. These are snapshot counts, not a confirmed full-release puzzle total.

What do the starting heroes do?

The early trio is Valens, Tif and Isidore. Valens pushes objects; Tif pulls them; Isidore exchanges places with an object in his line of sight. The PlayStation hands-on describes how their initially separate puzzles develop into cooperation.

When comparing a route, check both the selected character and the object positions. A path that works for the pushing hero can leave the pulling hero on the wrong side of a block. Use the starting-board image before following any inputs.

Heroes 1, monsters, and the later party

The imported directory contains 21 Heroes 1 boards, 30 Heroes 2 boards and 10 Heroes 3 boards. The community group names are preserved below. They help locate the recorded puzzle; they are not a claim that the released game uses the same numbering.

Later northern puzzles introduce monsters and additional heroes. Check which abilities are present on the particular board rather than carrying the early trio’s rules into every puzzle. The external northern walkthrough in Sources provides release progression context; our linked routes retain the Demo version label.

Using the northern puzzle directory

Each entry links to its board and available route. Match the image first, especially when two names differ only by a version suffix. The action count describes the stored sequence and does not mean it is the shortest solution.

  1. Choose the group that matches your heroes and board.
  2. Compare the initial layout before revealing the route.
  3. Keep track of character-switch actions as well as movement.
  4. If an action does not reproduce the shown situation, undo it and check the version and selected hero before continuing.
