    Hi everyone, a quick update:

    When the progression is stuck at this point in the game, please try to load an earlier save. If you do not have this option available to you, the only other solution that we have is to start over. 

    Our apologies for any inconvenience that this has caused.

I was able to fix this by temporarily unlocking the voice for this in the save file (%AppData%\LocalLow\Zoink Games\Fe\Save1.sav) and then locking it again once back to the cave. For anyone else affected by this bug and also trying to modify the save file just bear in mind there is an md5 hash at the end of the save file that you'll have to update. Just change the unlocked voices from 0 to 1, then select all the text before the md5 hash and paste it into a generator such as http://www.miraclesalad.com/webtools/md5.php

Word of warning, doing this skipped the following puzzle that would have unlocked the voice.

    Hey @Subj_Zero,

    thank you for sharing this. I played the game in two sessions so I only had to load back in once and luckily did not encounter this. So you cannot go back or forth because you're trapped between two mushroom gates? Or were you able to go back, but there just weren't any animals that could open the gates for you?

      The latter.

      Same thing happened to me. Could not figure out the 4 lock room. Backtracked and now the "rhino" spawns in the swamp near the mushroom door there. You show up there, he breaks it, and you can follow him to the beginning of the ice area. (Where you take a spiral path up to a tree, and then a boost flower to the top of the ice ramp.) As soon as he follows me up there, right before the narrow ice bridge, he disappears. He's not there to break the mushroom wall at the bottom of the ice ramp. Can't progress the game. Tried exiting/reloading at many points along his follow path.

      Manually editing files is not a workaround on console, obvs. PS4

      [Edit, remembering now. Tool tip was showing that character needs to throw something. Couldn't find anything to throw. Backtracked looking for bomb. Just in case it matters why people are trying to backtrack this area.]

        You need to collect a "ball" from the end of a wolf's tail and throw it into the hovering thingy. The wolfs are roaming around in the area below the hovering things (one is actually also down there).

    I had the same issue. I unlocked the puzzle again by changing flagValue to false for flag 5010. (Make sure you've also locked that voice again)
