AMANA Full Walkthrough


AMANA is heavily inspired by games like Yume Nikki, who focus on open-world exploration with a small way to progress through the game's stages. In AMANA, you collect people's desires, although the creatures you interact with speak in a language unintelligible to you. Somehow, you're still able to connect with them in your travels. This guide details the location of all 6 desires needed to unlock the BitterEnd room.

1 - Heart / Love

In the first room (BitterHometown), talk to the creature directly above your spawn. They'll spam you with hearts before finally giving you the Heart Desire.

2 - Ball / World

Enter the portal in the top right of the first room (BitterHometown). In the BitterDesert, follow the upper right dotted path to take you to a pair of vertical gates. Enter this portal to arrive in the BitterCity, where you'll find a traveler in the bottom left of the map to give you the World Desire.

3 - Skull / Death

Leave the BitterHometown and travel down the path to the right until you end up at the BitterCrops. If you try to enter the towering silo, you'll get a message that the door needs something to pass through. Search the bottom left radish patch for the 2nd from the left, 2nd from the bottom radish to find the key. Using the key, you'll be able to enter the silo and climb up its 4 levels until you get to the very top. Talk to the weary creature, who will share with you his Desire for Death. He will kindly help you home if you talk to him (as indicated by the shrine icon he states).

4 - Sun / Life

In the BitterDesert, allow yourself to get hit by one of the zooming spaceships. You'll be taken into an underground hellish landscape (the dots on the ground spell out DEATH > LIFE, as a bonus). Talk to the slow-moving skull, who will give you their Desire for Life.

5 - Radish / Nourishment

In the BitterDesert again, navigate down the bottom dotted path until you find a creature all by his lonesome. He'll show you a piece of paper he found with an image on it. Take a note of this and store it for later (but I'll give you the exact directions as well). Once done, Go back up to the portal but instead follow the upper left dotted path to another pair of vertical gates. You'll find yourself in a room with an invisible maze. To navigate, either use the image you saved earlier for reference of where the walls are, or enter the following directions (U = Up, D = Down, L = Left, R = Right):

DLLLDDRRRRRUURRDDDDLDDLLDD

You'll find yourself at a beach with a stranded creature who Desires Food (in the form of Radishes).

6 - Star / Isolation

Exit the hometown and head right through the path but stop when you see the triangular stone blocking your path. It's actually here as an arrow, pointing up to a transparent part of the wall that you can walk through. Use the shrine in this room to be taken to the secluded part of the BitterDesert containing a part of creatures along with a spaceship. Board the spaceship and fly to the other secluded part of the map with the circular hole. Descend the ship and walk over the hole to fall through to a secluded creature, who insists he is alright as he shares his Desire for Isolation (as Stars).


End Game

Back in your hometown, the 6 Desires stored in your house (bottom left of the starting map) will now activate the portal sitting in the middle of the floor, taking you out of this world and granting you the ability to understand the language. You can now replay the game with the text switched out to understand what the creatures are saying.
