When embarking on your journey in Hello Kitty Island Adventure, one of your primary objectives is to meet all the adorable residents and present them with their welcome gifts, generously provided by My Melody. However, this task can become challenging when you realize one of your new friends, Hangyodon, resides beneath the ocean’s surface, making him quite inaccessible initially.
Fortunately, the game includes a handy Snorkel that allows you to dive underwater to reach Hangyodon. While Hello Kitty Island Adventure is devoid of combat, some quests can leave you feeling quite perplexed.
How to Acquire the Snorkel
The Snorkel is not just a find; it’s an item you can craft. To unlock the crafting recipe, you must build your friendship with Kuromi, the charmingly spooky resident of the Spooky Swamp, to at least level 6.
The most efficient way to foster friendships in Hello Kitty Island Adventure is by gifting the residents items they treasure. Each character can receive up to three gifts daily, and if you select their favorites, you’re likely to earn a substantial friendship boost.
Each character has distinct preferences and aversions; notably, Kuromi loves Soda, Fall-themed items, and Spooky elements.
For the optimal gift for Kuromi, consider crafting a Pumpkin Spice Soda. This delightful beverage requires one Cinna Bloom, one Pumpkin, and a Fizzy Crystal at the Soda Machine.
If you are just starting your adventure and haven’t accessed the Soda Machine yet, you can still impress Kuromi by gifting her a **Jack-O-Lantern, ** which can be made from five Pumpkins once you have unlocked the respective recipe.
To find the crafting recipe for the Jack-O-Lantern, search inside a Treasure Chest located on a lily pad behind the Pumpkin Patch in the Spooky Swamp!
Once you’ve cultivated your friendship with Kuromi to level 6, she will ask you to retrieve a locket she’s accidentally dropped into the water. Since you won’t be able to hold your breath underwater just yet, Kuromi will provide you with the Snorkel crafting recipe, so you can dive to fetch her precious item!
How to Craft the Snorkel
With the Snorkel recipe unlocked, you are close to crafting it! To successfully create the Snorkel, gather these materials:
- 10x Rubber
- 2x Spark
- 2x Iron Ingot
Rubber is relatively easy to collect as it can be found under trees on the main island. However, you’ll need to unlock the other materials first.
How to Acquire Sparks
Sparks can be crafted from three Light Stones, which you will earn by gifting Kuromi. To unlock the crafting recipe for Sparks, you must complete Pochacco’s friendship level 4 quest, aptly titled A Zipline Adventure.
Given that Hello Kitty Island Adventure is designed as a cozy open-world game, the island is sprinkled with zip lines that facilitate easy exploration. Pochacco desires to restore them!
Approach Chococat to obtain the Spark crafting recipe, which will help streamline your collection of Iron Ingots.
How to Obtain Iron Ingots
Once the zip lines are operational, make your way to the top left corner of the map, known as Mount Hothead. Here, Iron can be found growing from the rocks.
You can also acquire Iron by exploring Gem Mountain during gameplay!
After gathering enough Iron, you’ll need to craft Iron Ingots in your inventory using the appropriate recipe. Thankfully, no further quests are required for this step, and the recipe can be conveniently found on top of a barrel to the left of the Dance Hall.
How to Utilize the Snorkel to Reach Hangyodon
Once crafted, the Snorkel will equip automatically! To dive down and find Hangyodon, swim out into the water until you hover over the gift icon that appears on the mini-map in the upper left corner.
As you dive deeper, a gauge will display next to your character showing your depth. Press down to submerge and explore the area below, where Hangyodon awaits!
Keep in mind that diving consumes Stamina, making underwater exploration a bit tricky at first. To boost your Stamina levels, continue gifting items to residents until you’ve collected five Stamina Apple Slices. You can then combine these slices at the crafting table to create a full Stamina Apple that significantly increases your maximum Stamina.
