Turn enemies into yarn balls
Swallow suitable enemies to build ammunition. Yarn attacks can wrap threats and fill marked structures as well as hit targets.
| Action | Target | Result |
|---|---|---|
| Swallow | Suitable enemy | Creates yarn ball |
| Throw yarn | Outlined platform or pipe | Fills the structure |
| Pull with tongue | Loose knot or bow | Unravels scenery |
| Ground Pound | Soft floor or marked surface | Reveals or activates a route |
Pull loose threads with the tongue
A visible knot or bow can unravel part of the scenery. Search the newly exposed space before following the main route.
| Situation | Helpful tool | Check |
|---|---|---|
| Wide gap | Flutter or Mellow wings | Safe landing |
| Hidden passage outline | Yarn ball | Enough ammunition |
| Suspicious fabric knot | Tongue | Space behind the panel |
| Low health | Hearts | Recover before another hazard |
Fill outlined platforms and pipes
Throw yarn at a wireframe object to make it solid. The completed structure can lead to a hidden room or safer crossing.
Use Mellow Mode when flight helps
The pause menu lets players switch between Classic and Mellow. Wings can make a difficult jump or collection sweep easier.
