3. Chu Chu Island: Hungry Muto

Gulla's invasion of Chu Chu Island has begun! Help Muto defeat Gulla by cooking him some delicious food!

3-1. Getting Started

• Entry Requirements: Be Lv. 210 or higher and have completed the Chu Chu Island story quest. To enter, speak with Simia on the 'Chu Chu Island: Quiet Village Path' map.

• Party Size: 1-4 players (Solo play is possible).

• Clear Limit: You can clear Hungry Muto up to 3 times per day.

3-2. Gameplay

• The key to victory is to quickly cook the dishes Muto craves.

• Hunt monsters throughout the map to collect ingredients for the current recipe. Then, jump on the pot at the center of the map to add them.

• Each dish has a specific cooking time. You must complete the dish before time runs out to successfully push Gulla back.

• A green gauge at the top of the screen fills as Muto pushes Gulla back. If Gulla pushes Muto, a blue gauge will fill from the other direction. Fill the green gauge completely to win!

• The cooking time and how far Muto pushes Gulla vary for each food. More complex foods are tougher to handle, but they give Muto the strength to push Gulla back even farther.

• If you complete a dish before the cooking timer reaches the red bonus section, Muto will gain a huge boost of strength and push Gulla back even farther.
