Ultimate Rainbow Friends Chapter 2 Walkthrough

Rainbow Friends Chapter 2 is out, and it's time to survive the onslaught of colorful monsters... again. While you're running away for your dear life, you may be confused about what you should be doing. To help you out, we made this Rainbow Friends Chapter 2 Walkthrough.

Rainbow Friends General Tips

If you're new to the game, here are a few tips that could save your life.

Tip #1 - You can outrun the monsters

Even though it doesn't always work, generally, you can get away from the monsters just by running in the opposite direction. They will chase you, but as soon as you get too far or break line of sight, they will stop. Just try not to panic, and you should be fine.

Tip #2 - Ladders and holes are your friends

If you're running away from a monster, go for a ladder to escape. No ladder in sight? Find a hole you can crawl into. We can't even begin to tell you how often the Bouncy Castle saved us. Speaking of that, boarding the Ferris Wheel is also a good way to escape. In short, any place where you need to crouch or climb to get to is a good place to escape your pursuers.

Tip #3 - If there's nowhere to hide, use your box

When there's nowhere to hide, your box is there to save you, but you need to know how to use it. If you pull out the box while Blue is chasing you, he's just going to flip the box over and catch you anyway. So, be smart about it. If you see a monster approaching with no way to hide, use the box, don't move, and let it pass. If a monster is chasing you, break line of sight first, and then hide inside the box. Solid Snake approved!

Tip #4 - Don't follow your teammates

Even though you are working as a team, there's no reason to follow your teammates. They can't save you, and they can't revive you. So, it's usually a good idea to just go out on your own and hope your teammates won't die out there.

Here's how to survive each section of Chapter 2.

Part 1 - Find 25 Lightbulbs

In this first round, you need to run around the park and collect yellow and blue lightbulbs. You can carry a couple of them at once. The lightbulbs aren't hidden very well, and you'll find most of them out in the open. Once you have a few, bring them back to the Laser Tag plaza and put them in the big reflector light. As for the monsters, you'll only have Blue and Green chasing you, and they should be pretty easy to avoid.

Even though this round is relatively easy, you should expect to see a lot of players drop out of the game. The more that make it to the next round (and the following rounds), the easier it will be for you.

Part 2 - Find 15 Gas Canisters

This is very similar to the first round, except most of the Gas Canisters are going to be hidden indoors. So check inside offices and ride attractions to find them. Just like in the first rounds, bring the Gas Canisters back to the Laser Tag Plaza. This time, you can only carry one at a time.

As for the monsters, Yellow will spawn in this round (the pterodactyl monster). Yellow is a little faster than other monsters, but if it catches you, you can actually survive. If Yellow catches you, it will fly you high in the air, and if you struggle and fall, you'll die from fall damage. This means that you should only do this if you are above the bouncy castle, and that's pretty easy to do, actually.

Other than that, you'll likely have fewer players in this round, so definitely try to gather as many Gas Canisters as you can while avoiding the monsters.

Part 3 - Find 10 Lookies

Lookies are little colorful balls that roll around the park. You can only carry one at a time, and if you use a Box, you'll lose it. Half of the Lookies are in the park, around the river, and the other half is in the Go Kart area.

Cyan will spawn in this round, but fortunately, he is the same as Blue and Green, so other than the park getting a bit cramped with monsters, it's still relatively easy to avoid them, as long as you hide correctly.

Again, you'll likely have fewer players (we usually have around 4-5 at this round), so try to contribute as much as you can when collecting Lookies.

Part 4 - Find 9 Sugar Packs

Final difficult part. You need to get Sugar Packs. These things are usually hidden inside buildings. Again, you can only carry one, and you need to bring it to the Laser Tag plaza. No new monsters will spawn in this round, but you'll likely have the last amount of players by this round (there were only two of us during this last round).

Use the same tactics to hide and escape, and you should be fine too, even if there's very few players.

Part 5 - Mine Cart Ride

The sugar you gathered in the last round is going to lure the giant Blue ball away from the Crystal Caverns. When you gain back control of your character, head inside and sit in one of the Mine Carts.

The first time we did this, we were expecting a long Donkey Kong Country style mine cart mini-game but boy were we wrong. This was really easy. All you need to do is enjoy the ride and occasionally tilt the cart to one or the other side. If that wasn't enough, you even get a guide kart (filled with Lookies) which pretty much tells you where you need to go. Finish the mine cart and get ready for the final part.

Part 6 - Escape the Park

Once you get out of the kart, Cyan will spawn and start chasing you. Just run towards the exit. The path is very straightforward, and you won't need to do anything special except crouch to get under small gaps. Once you make it through the metal bars, you're done. Congrats, you finished Chapter 2. Now, are you ready to do it again, even faster?

That's all there is to it. Have fun surviving in Rainbow Friends Chapter 2. If you need a different type of coop game, check out Dead Spells.
