Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew Golden Skeleton Guide
Ever notice that trapdoor under the stairs of the training deck? The shiny skeletons are the key!
Afia
The first golden skeleton is in Afia’s “Blink” tutorial. After you teleport past the first set of guards and climb the vines, teleport under the bow of the floating ship and blink again through the cracks of the boards.
Toya
In the “Shadow Step” tutorial, progress until you’ve past through the torii. Move Toya close enough to toss down the talisman and teleport to it.
Suleidy
At the very end of the “Wander Dust” tutorial, you’ll see a floating platform the skeleton on it. I killed it before I started taking screenshots for this guide, but it’s about where I threw the cover seeds. You’ll need to hit the skeleton with the dust, run over to the canon, and shoot it.
Teresa
In Teresa’s “Iron Judgment” tutorial, clear to the end. Click on the floating platform around the side of the tower to make her move, then snipe the skeleton from your better vantage point.
John
After killing the first enemy in the “The Below” tutorial, move John near the wall and anchor down.
Swivel the camera around to see a hidden platform and kill the skeleton (skelly not pictured bc I already got em)
Quentin
In Quentin’s Challenge Room, clear the room with the two big boxes and make a quick save. Maneuver him to the smashed wall as pictured, and throw down your head. The golden skeleton will walk over to it, so quickly reel it up and stab the rotten skelly for being so greedy.
Gaelle (incomplete)
This is where I have to admit that I am not a pro-gamer who’s 100% the game in 4 days. Apologies.
I do not know how to kill the next two golden skeletons.
In Gaelle’s Challenge Room, it looks like you’re supposed to use firecrackers to bait the skeleton to a spot where you can rope it up like in Quentin’s room, but the skeleton just looks blankly at the explosion. If you figure this one out, tell people in the comments. I’m too lazy to update a guide I’ve already published.
Pinkus
This is the other one I haven’t killed. In Pinkus’ “Coin” tutorial, the skeleton is on a small, floating platform that appears to be impossible to reach. If the guards you posses were able to shoot, it would be simple, but for now, I don’t know how it would be possible to kill this one.
And with that, I’ve given a mostly complete guide to every golden skeleton maybe. Perhaps there is a ninth skeleton that I haven’t seen. After all, I haven’t reached 85% completion. I hope this was at least a bit helpful.
A presto.
Pinkus’ Golden Skeleton you hit with a floating cannon: You can fire it with a tossed coin.
I’m still not sure about Gaelle’s room, but i do know that in Pinkus’ room you are supposed to toss your coin at a cannon that is lined up to take down the skeleton once fired. How a small dubloon somehow triggers a cannon is beyond me, but that’s how it works. (I only figured this out after several minutes of trial and error with all of Pinkus’ stuff)
In Pinkus’ “Coin” tutorial, you just throw the coin to the cannon to kill that shinny skeleton
Pinkus > Münze auf die Kanone am Rand werfen
Gaelle mit dem Seil der Kanone das Skelet “einsaugen”. Danach irgendwo hinwerfen und mit dem Messer töten.
With Gaelle right before the exit, there’s a crack on the wall. From there, I was able to use the cannon to rope the skelly in, then kill it with a knife.
Now I’ve killed all the skeletons, climbed down the hatch, and can interact with the monkey… but gives me the same cutscenes for every crewmember… (the mokey just squeeks, can’t understand anything, then cutscene ends) So I’m still missing something 🙁
