Infinity Nikki: How to save (save instructions)
Infinity Nikki is a very interesting game, so players will not want to miss their progress. This guide explains saving.
Entrance (Whimstars: 0, Dews of Inspiration: 3)
Before jumping into the well, you can grab two more Dews of Inspiration (not included in the total of 25) from the little nook in the corner. Once you get them, jump into the well. From here you can go down the passage and past Croaker. From here, head right and you'll find a small side area with three Dews of Inspiration. Once you get it, return to the main section to find the power box and repair it. This will light up the next section.
Start of the Waterway (Whimstars: 3, Dew of Inspiration: 18)
After entering this area, turn left to find a side path with a platform you can jump to and a pipe blocking your way. You can use the platform and floating outfit to climb up the pipe and find your first Whimstar.
First, go back the way you came and look for a pipe you can jump to on the left side of the main room, near the side path you just came back from. Climb up there and reach the raised platform that runs across the room above the water. Go to the end to find two more Dews of Inspiration.
Reach the far side of this area (on the ground or at water level) to get a few more Dews of Inspiration. This begins the scene where Monroefin harasses a large croaker. After the scene plays, help Croker by repairing both power boxes nearby, then talk to them to get help going up. Before heading down the large central path, turn left to find two more Dews of Inspiration, then turn right to find a pipe with a Whimstar inside.
To get two more Dews of Inspiration, slide down from where you find the Whimstar to reach the area shown above. Once you've climbed the pipe and grabbed the Dew of Inspiration, return to the central path mentioned earlier and reach a room full of plants. You can jump onto the hanging ledge here to get two more Dews of Inspiration. Continue into the well and you will fall into a hallway. First, go left and look up to see three more Dews of Inspiration. Use the pipe to climb up and purify it, then retrace your steps and this time head right.
You will enter a large room where a large croaker is sitting. Go left to find two more Dews of Inspiration, then go back left and climb higher. Use the pipes and platforms here to turn right and reach another Whimstar with three Dews of Inspiration. The final Dew of Inspiration in this section can be found on the left as you head down the path to the next section.
Winding Waterway (Wimstar: 1, Dew of Inspiration: 4)
Winding Waterway begins with another power box puzzle. Once you've solved the problem and turned on the light, you'll have to jump over the lily pads while avoiding bubbles. Once you reach the point shown in image 2 above, you will need to look to the right to find two more Dews of Inspiration. Continue following this platform section and you will reach the Lotus Leaf Boat.
If you talk to the croaker here, he will give you a lotus leaf pear. Take the boat to the other side of the room, then look back the way you came and cross the lily pads on the right to reach a diagonal pipe that runs across the room. Climb up to reach Whimstar, stopping to grab two more Dews of Inspiration along the way. The Fountain of Fortune now has both Dew of Inspiration and Wimstar.
