What all can I get from the skeleton maze?
  • 1 of 7: Skeletons to kill.
  • 2 of 7: A couple of treasure chests to raid.
  • 3 of 7: There's also a well in the very center of the maze that you can drink from to get a permanent +5 to everyone's Speed stat. Don't miss it!
  • 4 of 7: There's also a third treasure chest behind a secret wall.
  • 5 of 7: It's noted on the Skeleton Maze Map as a red wall (though the Perception skill doesn't seem to help in seeing it).
  • 6 of 7: Use it to open it, then move forward to find the chest.
  • 7 of 7: Or you could actually go around to where you're just south of the chest, and use the wall that's between you and it. For some reason, this game lets you open chests on the other side of walls. Cool!
