The Attic Walkthrough

Co-op roles: read this first

The Attic is about harmony under pressure. May's song only works if Cody protects the right node; Cody's flight only matters if May opens the route.

Co-op playbook for The Attic

The Attic is the final gameplay chapter, and its theme is harmony under pressure: May's song only works if Cody shields the right node, and Cody's flight only matters if May opens the route. There is no traditional boss — the climax is a coordinated concert — so the challenge is precision and timing, not survival.

Communication cadence

May should call her note timing — "holding the note, shield the left laser" — so Cody knows when to throw the cymbal. Cody should call his landing — "cymbal up, landing on three" — so May times the next note. Once you earn jetpacks in Symphony, agree who leads the Z-axis flight so you do not collide in the air. During Turn Up, count the beat out loud; the platforms answer the music, not your eyes.

Pacing & difficulty at a glance

The chapter runs about 2 to 2.5 hours. Difficulty is moderate and steady — the DJ-themed Turn Up section with its beat platforms is the toughest spike — and it eases into the celebratory concert finale. Treat the end as a victory lap.

Times are editorial estimates for a first clear and exclude replays and the five minigame detours.

Camera & movement

The flight sections in Symphony and the beat platforms in Turn Up are the moments the shared camera works hardest. Keep a visible gap in the air so both jetpacks stay in frame, and let Cody's cymbal shield block the strobe lasers before May steps onto a lit platform. In the concert finale, follow the choreography together rather than racing ahead.

If you get stuck

Most Attic stalls come from one of these — check in order:

1. Unprotected note: if May's path is cut, Cody missed a laser — re-time the cymbal to the beat.
2. Beat mistiming: on Turn Up, jump to the audio cue, not the visual; count it out loud together.
3. Flight collision: in Symphony, agree the lead so the two jetpacks don't cross.
4. Missed minigame: four of the five minigames cluster in Setting the Stage; Volleyball is later in Symphony.

Track the five Attic minigames in the Completion Tracker, and see the minigame index for every location.

1. Setting the Stage (hub)

A hub of musical instruments. Four of the chapter's five minigames are clustered near the start here.

Steps

1. Learn the sing/cymbal loop on simple instrument puzzles.
2. Play Slotcars, Chess, Musical Chairs, and Track Runner near the start.
3. Move to Rehearsal.

2. Rehearsal

Learn the voice and cymbal mechanics properly. May opens paths by singing; Cody protects with cymbal blocks. This is the teaching run before the spectacle.

Steps

1. May sings gates open; Cody blocks the lasers that would cut the path.
2. Coordinate the first flight beats together.

3. Symphony + Volleyball

Recruit an orchestra of toys and earn jetpacks for Z-axis flight. The chapter's last minigame lives here.

Steps

1. Recruit each instrument section as a co-op pair.
2. Gain jetpacks; practice Z-axis flight coordination.
3. Play Volleyball in this section.

4. Turn Up

A DJ-themed section with neon lights. Platforms appear to the music's beat — time your jumps to the audio cues, not your eyes.

Steps

1. Jump on beat-triggered platforms; Cody shields May from strobe lasers.
2. Build to the concert entrance.

5. A Grand Finale

The concert: a victory lap using every musical mechanic with a spectacular light show. hone.gg frames this as less combat, more spectacle and celebration — the emotional close of the game.

Five minigames — four up front in Setting the Stage, one later in Symphony.
