Sunken City (2)

Sunken City

The Sunken City is the secret seventh world in Spelunky 2. It is accessed by acquiring the Qilin by taking the correct Ushabti to 6-2. When bringing the Qilin to Tiamat's throne, use it to fly up through many timed lasers and spark traps. If you succeed you will find Tun beside a door congratulating you for your progress. Through the door is an Olmec-shaped rocket ship which will take you to the first level of Sunken city. Note: The door is only one tile tall, so you can't bring the Qilin with you to the sunken city.

The sun challenge will spawn in 7-1, 7-2 or 7-3 which is another challenge hosted by Tun. Note that she sun challenge is dangerous and it is highly likely to die if you participate. The sun challenge consists of a narrow room with frog traps, laser barriers, and enemy spawners. The goal of the challenge is to survive a barrage of enemies for a limited time. When the time is up, noted by the text on the bottom telling you when there are 5 seconds left. After you survive the challenge you can pick up the arrow of light from a platform in the middle of the arena protected by timed lasers. note that even if you won the challenge the lasers will still turn on and off on a timer. You also win a bag containing a lot of bombs and ropes. The arrow of light is necessary to get to the Cosmic Ocean.

Geography

Sunken City is a grotesque, Lovecraft-inspired (hence the name) location with what appears to be upside-down human eyes, mouths, brains and the like scattered on the walls and in the terrain. The stages here tend to be compact, connected with fleshy tubes and laden with traps more so than enemies. The water here also flows upwards.

7-1

This level always has a shrine to place the Eggplant Child and an entrance to Eggplant World. It is located by finding a statue of a woman with her arms looking like she is holding something in her lap, with a red door with a crest of King Yama's head on it. Place the Eggplant child in the woman statue's arms and the door will open. It is also possible to get 4 hearts by waiting a few seconds when placing down the Eggplant child in the statue's arms, this is also possible by just laying in her arms yourself.

Dirk Tamaoka (character)

In 7-1 you can find a new character in a coffin. That is Dirk Tamaoka. He is a ninja with grey clothing and a face mask.
