Finding hidden paths and collectibles in Neva requires keen observation and a willingness to explore every nook and cranny of the beautifully rendered world. With the game divided into four distinct chapters, each representing a different season, here’s a detailed guide outlining how to find all hidden flowers and collectibles across these regions.

Summer Chapter

1. Hidden Flower 1: After you awaken in the forest, proceed to the right until you reach the lake or waterfall area. Drop down and move left to discover this flower, which is located under a tree.
2. Hidden Flower 2: Once you’ve acquired the sword, you’ll encounter a corrupted tree obstructing your path. Cut it down, jump across the platforms, and reach the higher areas to obtain this flower.
3. Hidden Flower 3: After clearing the first set of black vines with Masked Bulbs, strike another bulb in the subsequent room to eliminate more vines and uncover the flower hidden behind them.
4. Hidden Flower 4: During a chase sequence, drop down to a lower platform away from your companion Neva. Navigate past the black vines to find this flower.
5. Hidden Flower 5: Near the end of the chapter, after activating the Totem, head left to unearth the final flower, which is obscured by a vine.

Fall Chapter

– The specific locations for Fall’s collectibles haven’t been detailed, but it’s essential to explore extensively, especially around checkpoints and distinctive elements such as the giant hands scattered throughout the environment.

Winter Chapter

1. Hidden Flower 1: On the main path, find this flower at the top of some ruins. Utilize Neva’s ability to jump to reach it.
2. Hidden Flower 2: Post the initial dash through debris, proceed all the way left to find a flower atop some ruins.
3. Hidden Flower 3: This flower is located halfway up the climbable ruins along the main route.
4. Hidden Flower 4: In a room featuring a significant block at its center, use the block to access the flower wall and collect it.
5. Hidden Flower 5: Shortly after receiving aid from a spirit, you’ll discover this flower on top of some ruins.
6. Hidden Flower 6: Progress through the next set of ruins, climb, and defeat the enemies to obtain this flower.
7. Hidden Flower 7: After activating the second orb, mirror usage will help you reach a platform where this flower lies.
8. Hidden Flower 8: Use enemy balloons as makeshift platforms to access the flower wall on the right and make your way upward.

For the remaining Winter flowers (9 through 13), it is advisable to consult comprehensive guides that detail the specific pathways, as they often require intricate navigation and puzzle-solving techniques.

Spring Chapter

1. Flower 1: From your starting point in this chapter, head left until you spot this flower.

General Tips for Discovering Hidden Paths and Collectibles

– Thorough Exploration: Many collectibles are not along the main pathways, so be sure to check side areas.
– Utilize Neva’s Abilities: Neva’s jumping, dashing, and throwing capabilities are essential for reaching otherwise inaccessible locations.
– Inspect Alcoves and Corners: Hidden collectibles can often be found in small nooks or behind climbable walls and platforms.
– Leverage Reflections and Mirrors: In areas with mirrors, pay attention to reflections as they can reveal hidden paths or platforms that are not directly visible.
