I hope I can finish this game. How is the sand temple? Really hard? I've only been really stumped once in the game, the part with the arrow switches and the lava.

On level with the rest, its the tower that gets tough.

Aren't I done with the tower now?

Oh found the sand temple, turns out my notes had covered and hidden the rail track linking the sand sanctuary to the route to the temple. Love this sand item rod thing.

Yeah that boss fight was cool and the lava boss. Now back to the tower of spirits. I sense I am close to the end.

Game needs an insta warp though, those gates are useless. I must have activated the door between the very first one and all the other gates I see have no gems and activation.

you are not close to the end.  the last sections of the tower of spirits are the most difficult and will take you a good bit of time.  after that get ready for the most annoying train bit in the game yet Grinning  but i'm not going to spoil it for you

How much time? I usually complete one dungeon in a 1 hr 30 min session, some of that taken up by train time.

for me it was the longest any dungeon took me in the game, though that was because i got stuck at one particular point and was going back and forth for a long time, after that the rest came together nicely.

i think it would still take you longer than previous dungeons in the game did.

also sand rod.  was so unique and unexpected and used in very very cool ways.

i thought the boomerang also had some of its finest applications ever in this game as well.

there is a flower bomb in the bottom-most horizontal corridor in that part of the room if you are out of bombs.  just throw it on the left side of the top wall.  i was stuck there for hours until i started throwing bombs randomly

This game is PISSING ME OFF.

The godamn tower of spirits last part is ridiculous. If I wasn't so annoyed right now I would immediately list it on ebay.

I use the sand rod to get to this switch, a load of eyes appear and a new armour suit in a closed off area.

There is a round red rec symbol on the ground which I can't swap between. Now I have to go blow out some torches.

Every other dungeon has been okay, this one is just obtuse and annoying. I really hate obscuring the view mechanic, playing in darkness. At least give me a torch damnit.

I know there are torch phantoms but you are restricted as to when you get them and where you can use them.
