Tunic Secret Treasure Guide

Tunic is filled with all kinds of surprises from challenging combat, to unique worldbuilding, and a plethora of puzzles that lie beneath the surface. There are disassembled Golden Obelisk, Secret Fairies, and also a set of 12 Secret Treasures. These treasures are the penultimate puzzle in Tunic, as far as we're aware. In this Tunic Secret Treasure Guide we'll take you through how to recognize each of the Secret Treasure locations, as well as where to find them if you want a shortcut.

What are the Secret Treasures in Tunic?

There are 12 golden treasures that are hidden around the world. Some are just off the side of your screen, some are hidden in button presses on the wall, and others you'll need to be thinking about every part of the Tunic environment in order to make appear.

Where do the Secret Treasures go?

There's a hint on Page 22 that shows a diagram of a door as well as the hidden hallway from the back of the Old House. This shows you that in the same room that you retrieved the Shield from you can head South-East through a hidden tunnel and enter a room with 12 pedestals. Each is the resting place for a different Secret Treasure.

How can I get more hints about the Secret Treasures?

Directions to obtain all of the Secret Treasures are hidden on the different pages of the Tunic in-game Manual, they are normally indicated to using blue pen on top of the regular designs. Obtaining Page 45 will also give you clearer directions giving you an illustration of the room and which page corresponds to which of the Secret Treasures.
