Paradise Hints

How do I set the trap?

  • 1 of 6: The trap, which is located down the ladder below the Angler's platform, needs two things: some bait, and something to hang it from.
  • 2 of 6: To hang the bait in place, you'll need something strong, curved, and pointed. Have you seen something like that?
  • 3 of 6: There's a metal hook in one of the huts on the upper level.
  • 4 of 6: Use the hook on the hanging rope to attach it.
  • 5 of 6: Now that you have the hook back, attach it to the tripod over the trap and hang the polopolo from it. You're almost done; all that's left is to set the trap and disguise it.
  • 6 of 6: To set it, pull the lever; to disguise it, use the branches on the platform next to the trap. Climb back up to the angler platform, and Ann decides it's time for beddy-bye.
