Let’s gear up and explore!
Chapter 1: Gearing Up in Gloomy Manor
Luigi's second mission is set in the haunting corridors of Gloomy Manor, where players must retrieve a set of gears necessary to activate a crucial mechanism. The adventure commences in the foyer, where you nearly activate the mechanism, but mischievous ghosts sweep away the four required gears. This mishap sets off a pursuit around the mansion to reclaim the components.
Activate your DS, which the quirky professor humorously dubs the Dual Scream, to locate the scattered gears. By tracking the ghostly activities, the DS map becomes indispensable.
First Gear: The Entrance and Common Hall
Begin your hunt by advancing to the door on the foyer's left side, only to witness a ghost swirling away with a crucial key. A pursuit into the entrance area is mandatory to regain this key. Upon defeating the Greenie ghost, return to the foyer and proceed through the door to enter the Common Hall.
Within the Common Hall, you'll encounter interactive elements like vases, a roll-up rug, and a cobweb in the window—all opportunities to earn treasures. Thereafter, venture into the Lab through the bottom-right door. Sneak a peek through a wall crack to observe the room's interior activity before confronting two greenies and a formidable red slammer to secure your first gear.
Second Gear: Studio and Secret Pocket
The next objective is the Studio, situated just up the corridor. Prior to entering, use the Poltergust to uncover a hidden area by removing a paper strip from between the Lab and Studio, unveiling the Secret Pocket. Dust away debris to reveal another key on the far left.
Despite this newfound key, the Studio door remains firmly shut. It's time to ascend to the upper floor. Observant players may recall glimpsing two blue ghosts painting inside the Studio through the Secret Pocket wall gap. As you climb the foyer, one ghost will challenge you—dispatch this blue ghost effortlessly before progressing.
Chapter 2: Exploring Higher Ground
Armed with the Secret Pocket key, unlock the Master Hall, teeming with interactive objects. Make your way into the top left Bedroom, where a gem lurks behind a screened corner. An oven awaits ignition, and clothes dangle invitingly—use your Poltergust to strip them away for an exclusive Study view. In this Study, a gear beckons.
Third Gear: Surprising Study
Reaching this gear involves unveiling a surprise bed by tugging a long cord at the doorway, catapulting Luigi unexpectedly into the Study. Here, a quartet of greenies and a slammer demand strategic ghostbusting. Deftly manage your health by seeking out hidden hearts and coins within the desks, curtains, and carpet.
After overcoming these spectral challenges, claim the gear and uncover a gem behind curtains, later accessible with dark-light devices. Reveal a plate under the rug to extinguish the fireplace, through which Luigi descends to unexpectedly reappear in the Studio.
Chapter 3: Tackling the Final Gear
In the Studio, Luigi must subdue the two blue ghosts—now hurling projectiles—and a hefty red slammer to secure the gear. Meanwhile, a strategically placed camera reveals a gem's location.
With three gears in hand, pivot back to the foyer, ascend the stairs, and navigate to the final gear nestled within the Parlour.
Fourth Gear: Parlour Perplexities
Once inside the Parlour, employ the Poltergust 5000 on the ceiling fan to procure a treasure trove. Use the strobe bulb to flash the clock for another collectible gem. Search the vase near the door for a bonus treasure.
Utilize the Poltergust on the gramophone, playing its tune to lure out two greenies, followed by a slammer. Conquering these adversaries yields the final gear.
Chapter 4: Completing the Mission
Bringing the collected gears reveals they've suffered some wear and tear from ghostly meddling, necessitating a trip back to the base. Upon your return, delve into an analysis of the ghost types captured during your adventure, prepping them for containment. Prayers for uninterrupted power are in order—the last thing needed is a shutdown by an overzealous city mayor.
Boo Encounter: BaBoon
Before concluding, revisit the Mudroom with a dark-light device to unveil a hidden table housing the elusive Boo named BaBoon. This marks the completion of your mission in Gloomy Manor's Gear Up adventure, laying the groundwork for further spectral encounters in Luigi’s journey.
Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD promises a richly detailed, hauntingly beautiful experience brimming with puzzles and paranormal antics. May this guide equip you to navigate and fully appreciate the magic and mystery lurking within every shadowy corner.
