In the first portion of the map visited, search the wall south of the chest for a hidden button. This will open a wall in the southwest corner of the room.
Solve the Four Plagues puzzle by putting a Healing Potion in the Disease shelf, the Frostbite Necklace in the Cold shelf, any food in the Famine shelf, and any weapon in the Battle shelf. This will open the gate.
After getting past the "Be quick" puzzle and releasing the Fjeld Wargs, look for a hidden button in the southeast cell. This opens the wall in the back.
After battling the Trickster, if a Turtle-filled room in the southeast was not opened, pull switches until the wall there opens. Inside is a hidden button which closes one of the pits. This allows you to reach another hidden button, which will open the wall next to you.
The alcove north of the exit stairs contains a hidden button, which opens a wall in the eastern alcove. Destroy the barrels inside to obtain all the items.
#After opening the pits sealing you inside the Twigroot Tunnels, drop down one of them to reach a short tunnel with a Windgate leading back up. A hidden button next to the sign deactivates the Windgate and opens the wall behind it. To exit, press the button again.
Drop down one of the pits in the Trickster's battle room to reach an enclosed area filled with Mummies. Place three food items in the shelf marked "Shrine of the Glutton" to access the shrine.

Next to the Shrine of Earth, there are two ravines. Stand on the eastern edge of the northern one and throw a projectile across to hit a pressure plate. A Windgate will appear below, which leads to the platform with the pressure plate.
On the eastern bank of the river, there is a chest behind a gate. Immediately north, there is a pressure plate underwater. Stand on it to open the gate.
North of the entrance, before the gate holding an Ice Guardian, there is a button on the pillar which temporarily creates a Magic Bridge leading across the trench.
In the hallway after the Follow the Light puzzle, search the east wall for a button which opens a wall north of you. Picking up the item creates a shortcut back to the entrance.
In the southeastern loops with the Giant Crabs, search the wall in the passage leading to the eastern dead end for a button. This will temporarily open a wall in a dead end west of you.
In the northwest section, after climbing a ladder to a one-tile platform, a chest is visible. From that position, throw an item east to hit a pressure plate and create a Magic Bridge providing access to the chest.
In the southwest section, there is a room with two wooden bridges next to each other. A button in the northwest corner creates a Magic Bridge, allowing you to reach the western ledge.
After completing the Follow the Light puzzle, a wall on this level will open. It leads to the room where the pressure plates are, allowing you to swap out the items weighing them down.
#Rest on the peak of the Meditation Spire in the Ruins of Desarune; you will be transported to a similar structure on this level. Periodically, anything on this peak will be transported back to that level.
#Drop down one of the pits in the northwest of the Ruins of Desarune to reach a water-filled room. A long underwater tunnel leads around from the south to the east. A ladder to the side leads to a pocket of air; a hidden button there opens a wall in the south part of the tunnel.
North of the entrance, defeat the Giant Crab roaming the hallway to get the Round Key it carries. Use it to unlock the doors in the hallway, and enter the door on your right. A button in the southeast corner opens a wall, allowing you to access the ledge behind the other door.
On the wall next to the Crowern Figurine, there is a hidden button that opens a wall in the north. Inside, another hidden button on the north wall closes the exit and opens two walls holding enemies. One of them leads to the room with pressure plates.
Proceed onward from the above puzzle's room, and take the path on your right to reach a dead end. A hidden button will teleport you to an isolated room in the north.
North of the Path of the Eagle puzzle, look in the dead end for a button on the south wall. Pressing it will open the wall behind you; destroy the barrels inside.
North of the entrance, a ladder leads down to an area with a Xeloroid and a Leg Plate on a shelf. Search the west wall for a small button, which opens the wall next to you. The path leads to a chest beneath the chamber of Xarant Wormbound.
In the southeast room, cross a wooden bridge to reach a one-tile platform. Press a hidden button on the west wall to temporarily form a Magic Bridge behind you. One of the items it leads to is an Ice Guardian Figurine. North of this area, beneath a wooden bridge, there is a Magic Bridge floor in front of a shelf with the inscription "With icicles from beneath, I strike at thee". Place the figurine in the shelf to deactivate the Bridge.
In the chamber south of the Crystal of Life, a Windgate leads to an isolated room in the east. Twelve pits line the room, one of them closed. They form an unusual puzzle—the pits correspond to a clock face, with the closed pit indicating the in-game hour. Wait until 6:00, when the pit blocking the Gear Key will close, then wait until 12:00, when you will be able to use it to open the gate in the north. After picking up the weapon, the four corners in both rooms will reveal enemies.
After teleporting to the Sanctuary, search the wall to your left for a hidden button which deactivates the Windgate behind you. This allows you to access another button, which opens the wall next to you.
In the second part of the Laboratory, look for a hidden button on the wall four tiles west of the eastern ladder. Pressing it opens up a wall above the ladder.
In the northeast, a gate blocks off a chest next to three buttons. To open the gate, press the buttons in the order Right, Left, Middle, Middle, Right, Left, Left.
At the end of the northwest tributary, a ladder leads down into a small chamber. A switch on the south wall opens a gate in the north, which leads to a secret area; the waters are full of quickly-respawning Silver Roaches, making this place an excellent food supply. A gold lock is found on the wall of the central island; it unlocks the gates blocking access to the center.
In the north, there is a large pool with five uniquely-shaped islands scattered about. You need to visit them in a certain order, as indicated by the Map found in the first secret in the Hamlet of Stormbreach. Visit the southeast island, the southwest island, the northeast island, the northwest island, and the central island. This will summon a Windgate on the central island, which leads to a room in the northwest. A switch on the wall creates an exit.
A hidden button is on the west face of the pillar next to the Crystal of Life. Pressing it forms a Magic Bridge leading to a small platform in the west, with a shelf holding a crystal. You only need to stand next to the item there to count as finding the secret, but removing it will warp you to an isolated room with additional items and enemies.
From an outcrop on the north end of the map, a chest on a ledge can be seen. There is a hidden button in the easternmost tile of the outcrop; press it to create a Magic Bridge leading to the locked chest.
In the square room where the Mine Key is used, the southeast corner holds a button; pressing it opens a wall alongside the nearby wooden bridge. A Windgate inside will send you to the west side of the map, where a linear path leads to the secret. Using the Windgate opens another wall in the hidden room, releasing enemies.
Within the Spectral Relay puzzle, a wall divides two of the pits and blocks off the exit gate. On its north face is a button which opens part of the south wall; once the pits close, traverse them again to reach your prize.
#In the Crystal Mine Entrance, a one-tile wooden bridge lies south of the stairs leading to this level's entrance. Drop down the tile immediately east of it; you will end up on a small ledge with the hidden items.
In a room in the north, you will find an altar referred to as the "Forge of the Fallen Stars". Bring the Meteorite obtained from one of the secrets on Sleet Island and place it on the forge, where it will be reformed into your reward.
In Crystal Mine Core drop or rope down one of the five pits in the spectral relay puzzle. This will put you in a small spike room; the spikes extend after you stand on a tile for about a second, so keep moving to avoid them. The button to open the secret is in southwest corner on the southern wall.
In the chamber with two sarcophagi, in the southeast part of the map, search the northwest corner of the room for a hidden button. It will open a wall south of you.
Past the Sarcophagus Puzzle, there will be a small alcove on your right. A hidden button on the south wall opens a passage behind a dead end south of you, behind some destructible pottery. Inside the room, a button on the wall opens two further walls. What you find here will help you in a later secret.
In the Spectral Relay in the northwest, you must complete it once to open the gate. Complete it a second time to close the gate, but move through it before it closes. The Relay also controls the wall in an apparent dead end; it closes when the gate opens, and vice versa. A switch in the area behind it allows you to exit.
The Tomb of the Guardians holds two pressure plates. The eastern one opens the far door and activates a Windgate, and the western one opens both pits and activates a Windgate in front of the first plate. The first thing you should do is place an item on the closed pit in front of you; it will have no effect on this secret, but it will be necessary to find a secret in the Tomb Underground. Place an item on the western pressure plate, close to the gate so that it can be reached from the other side. Step through the Windgate to appear there, and remove the item to close the pits once again. Now throw an item across the pits so that it lands on the pressure plate, opening the door. Your reward is blocked by a force field; to lower it, step through the Windgate and survive the enemies waiting inside.
#Drop down one of the pits in the northwest of the Pyramid of Umas to reach a looping room on this level. In the south, a gate lies across from an alcove with an empty sconce. Place a torch inside to open the gate. This will also open a gate in the north which is not considered a secret, but contains a clue toward the Treasure Chest in Sleet Island.
#In the central Mirrored Pits room in the Pyramid of Umas, drop down any of the pits in the northernmost row to reach a hidden area with a locked chest. A switch will open several walls holding enemies, but also allow you to leave.
#First, you must drop an item through the pit in the Tomb of the Guardians by placing it on the pit when closed, then weighing down the western plate. Drop down any of the pits to reach a small area on this level. The secret is blocked by two doors, controlled by a pressure plate; as the plate is directly beneath the northeastern pit, both doors will be open.
#In the northeast of the Pyramid of Umas, there is a room where you must weigh down two pressure plates to close two pits. While they are open, drop down one of them to this level. Throw the switch on the wall; you can see it open passage to a Windgate, but it's one you can't reach yet. Return to the Pyramid of Umas and weigh down the plates, closing the pits. Doing so will open a pit in the hallway leading to that room; drop down there, and go through the newly-opened Windgate. You will end up in a hallway with a button, which opens three walls with enemies behind them. Go through one of the opened passages to reach this secret.
In the opening hall, there are four peculiar tiles down the middle—they have a pillar at each corner, and a hole in the ceiling above them emanates a warm light. Upon walking on the southernmost of these, you will hear a click, and the light will vanish as the hole closes. Doing this to each tile will reveal the secret, but it has to be in the correct order; visiting them out of order will reset the puzzle, and only trial and error indicates what the order is. Numbering them 1 to 4, from north to south, you must visit them in the order 4, 2, 1, 3. After this is done, two walls will open to reveal enemies inside rooms. One contains a locked chest, and the other hides a clue toward one of the Cemetery's Treasure Chests in destructible pottery.
In one of the Pyramid of Umas' secrets, a Note accompanying the Mirror Gauntlets referred to them as a gift for Burul the Hedonist, who needed six vessels for his burial. Much like that level's Sarcophagus Puzzle, north of this level's Crystal of Life, you will find a chamber with six sarcophagi. Place the Mirror Gauntlets on the one lying on the ground to open a wall in the southeast corner.
The crystal button opening the two gates also opens a wall near the entrance. The passage behind it leads to a Windgate which teleports you to an elevated platform next to a chest.
A highly time-sensitive secret waits in the room with the gate to Nexus. In the northwest corner of the pool, a passage leads to a crystal button. Pressing the button will open part of the north wall, but only for the smallest length of time it takes to exit the pool and reach it.
The switch allowing access to the Void controls more than just the gate; when thrown, it will also open a wall in the north. The opening can only be accessed with the Magic Bridge in the Spectral Relay puzzle. Follow the passage to reach the secret.
