How do I reach that house?
  • 1 of 4: From the front door to the tower, start by heading back down the ladder and then go towards the red-tipped pole where you first arrived in this age.  But just before you reach the pole, you should see a ladder down to a sandy area. Go down it.
  • 2 of 4: Keep heading along the beach until you reach a ladder up to a yellow pole. Go past that yellow pole and keep walking until you reach a rocky area and some stairs.
  • 3 of 4: Go down the stairs until you reach the water level.  (The path will fork at some point with one branch going up and one going down -- take the downward branch.)
  • 4 of 4: Walk across the bridge at water level, and you'll be at the house.
