Broken Age Act 2: Shay’s Puzzles Walkthrough

Acquire Radiation Suit

Another item Shay will need in order to help Alex, and progress in Broken Age Act 2, is a radiation suit. To get your hands on one of these you’re going to have to head to Meriloft, the town in the clouds.

1. Have Shay make his way to the area where Vella met M’ggie in Broken Age Act 1. Talk to her and Rocky and let them know you want to buy a cupcake (which you can’t afford), then make your way to the area in the distance where you can see Vella’s grandfather training the little boy from the previous act. Ask them for some money and you’ll receive a coin. Head back and purchase the cupcake, then proceed to the central area once again.
2. Give the cupcake to Walt’r (M’ggie’s father) and he’ll lick the frosting of (kinda gross). Now it’s time to give this frosting-less cupcake to Vella’s grandfather so head on back to him. After frosting the cupcake once more he will let you have his walking stick.
3. Head over to the great tree where Vella got the fruit in the first act. Here you will find the Dead Eye Druids, although they’ve now found something brand new to worship. Inquire about their robes and offer to fight them for the material. Interact with them using the walking stick. After a short cutscene you’ll be able to pick the robes up from the ground. You now have the materials you need to make the radiation suit. Before leaving this area, drop down at the base of the tree and head left. Here you can get a fruit, and a tapper that you’ll need later.
4. Remember that girl from Broken Age Act 1 who was very sad about not being chosen by Mog Chothra? Head over to her and ask her to make you a radiation suit. Give her the robesand the radiation suit from Shay’s childhood. In exchange you will receive the radiation suit for Alex. That’s another item down.
