How Do You Unlock the Watery Mines on Harvest Moon: Animal Parade?

You will unlock the watery caves -- a.k.a. the watery mines -- in the 2009 Nintendo Wii game "Harvest Moon: Animal Parade" during the main storyline when you attempt to ring the colored bells. You will access a new area for mining once you unlock the watery caves. The watery caves also contain a pond in which you can catch rare fish. You'll also come across abundant green and blue wonderfuls (stones) lower in the watery caves.

Instructions

    • 1

      Ascend the stairs in Horn Ranch's windmill. You'll see a pedestal for the green bell at the top of the stairs. You must start the green bell quest in order to begin the blue bell quest and unlock the caves. Examine the green bell pedestal to trigger a cut scene. Your farmer's guardian sprite Finn will suggest you meet with the witch in the forest.

    • 2

      Attempt to open the forest gate. Walk up to the locked gate and select the door. You cannot open it yet.

    • 3

      Speak with Hanna at the Horn Ranch. You will automatically ask Hanna about the locked forest gate. She will tell you she'll ask her husband Cain to investigate.

    • 4

      Return to the forest gate. You will trigger a cut scene as soon as you enter the area in which Cain will tell you he can't get the forest gate open. He directs you to Dale, whom he believes has the key.

    • 5

      Visit Dale in the Garmon Mine District. Dale will give you the key to the forest gate as soon as you speak to him. Find Dale in front of or inside the carpentry store on most days.

    • 6

      Open the forest gate. Make sure you have an ax and a hammer in your rucksack.

    • 7

      Walk through the forest until you reach the center. You must move from one entrance of an area to the other approximately 12 times before you reach the center of the forest. Each time you visit the forest, the areas will randomly change. Continue forward and you will eventually reach the center. Destroy trees in your path with the ax and stones with the hammer.

    • 8

      Enter the witch's hut. You will automatically trigger a cut scene in which you examine a pink frog inside the witch's hut. Finn will tell you to visit the Wizard to ask him about the frog.

    • 9

      Visit the Wizard in Harmonica Town. The Wizard is almost always in his home at any time of day or night. The Wizard will tell you the pink frog is the witch and you must gather three items -- perfect butter, good cornmeal and a hibiscus flower -- to break the spell that turned her into a frog. You will not yet need all of these items to unlock the watery caves, but you must trigger this scene to continue.

    • 10

      Speak with Ozzie at the fishery in Harmonica Town. Speaking with Ozzie will trigger a dialogue in which Ozzie says boats will not arrive in Harmonica Town until someone fixes the lighthouse.

    • 11

      Enter the lighthouse and speak with Paolo. Paolo will tell you how to fix the lighthouse -- which you don't need to do to unlock watery caves -- and will give you the key to the watery caves.

    • 12

      Use Paolo's key to unlock the watery caves.
