Lost Cave

Access to:
Exit: Resort Gorgeous

Utility:
Surf is required to access the Lost Cave.

This area employs a "Lost Woods"-style puzzle. The player must navigate through multiple rooms, choosing the correct exit by which to leave each room each time. If the player ever chooses an incorrect exit, they will be taken back to the first room in the sequence.
On the first visit to Lost Cave, the goal is to find and rescue Lady Selphy in the depths of the cave. The rooms of Lost Cave are set up to give the player hints as to how to reach Lady Selphy. However, making deviations from this 'correct' path can sometimes lead the player to items, instead of returning them to the first room. The items, and the paths needed to reach them, are listed in the table below.
The path to reach Lady Selphy is as follows: from the first room, go east, north, south, south, east, west, south, east, and north. The hints in each room are provided by the number of rocks inside the room. The number of rocks corresponds to the numbers on a clock face, and indicate which direction the player should go: 3 rocks means to go east, 6 means south, 9 means west and 12 means north.
