Looking for one of the spookiest companions in Wobbly Life? The Ghost Pet is not only a fun and eerie addition to your collection, but it also comes with a satisfying achievement once unlocked. This multi-step process will take you across several locations, through puzzles, and into hidden chambers. In this guide, we’ll walk you through exactly how to obtain the Ghost Pet without losing your mind—or your glowing orbs.
Step 1: Prepare for Travel and Head to the Temple
To begin the Ghost Pet quest, you’ll need a method of flight. A cargo helicopter is the ideal choice due to its storage space, but a hot air balloon will also work. You can find helicopters near the main airport and in the mountains.
Once you’ve secured a flying vehicle, head to the temple on the island to the right side of the map. Park your ride out front and descend into the temple.
Tip: You only need to go about halfway through the temple. Your goal here is to retrieve the glowing orb at the center of a ball puzzle. If you’re unfamiliar with the puzzles, you may want to look up a detailed guide or practice a run beforehand.
After completing the orb puzzle, carefully carry the glowing ball back outside. Place it in your helicopter or balloon—avoid rough maneuvers to prevent the ball from falling out. If you’re in co-op, have a partner hold it in the back to make this process much easier.
Step 2: Retrieve the Waterfall Orb
Next, fly over to the large waterfall. Land safely and enter the hidden cave located just behind the waterfall. Hug the wall to avoid going underwater too deeply.
Inside the cave, you’ll encounter two puzzles:
- Puzzle 1: Move stone statues to free one and place it on a trigger plate. Simple positioning unlocks the next door.
- Puzzle 2: A weight-distribution ball maze. Carefully walk around the edges to guide the second glowing orb out of the puzzle.
Once you’ve retrieved the second ball, exit carefully the same way you came in. Avoid drowning—stay close to the walls and keep jumping. Place the orb into your helicopter alongside the first one.
Step 3: Transport to the Mines
Now fly to the mines, marked by a pickaxe symbol in the top-left section of the map. Land carefully—use the left trigger to slow your descent—and carry both orbs close to the mine entrance.
Warning: If you leave the balls in the mine after ending the mission, you may lose them. Consider scouting the route with a practice run first.
Speak to the miner NPC and accept the mining job. Once accepted, carry the orbs down into the mine.
Step 4: Reveal the Secret Room
Inside the mine:
- Place both balls down safely for a moment.
- Grab a pickaxe and break the barrier on the left.
- Continue deeper into the tunnel system.
- On the right-hand path, break the ore straight ahead to reveal a secret chamber.
Once the hidden room is accessible, go back and collect the two glowing orbs. Bring them down into the chamber and place each one on an altar. This unlocks the door to the final reward area.
Step 5: Claim the Ghost Pet
Inside the chamber, you’ll find a gravestone. Pick it up and take it to the mining machine as if it were a piece of ore. Place it inside, and after it’s processed, you’ll be rewarded with the Ghost Pet and the achievement.
Final Thoughts
The Ghost Pet mission is one of Wobbly Life’s most involved side quests, blending puzzle-solving, precision flying, and careful item transport. Doing it solo is totally possible with patience, but co-op players will have an easier time keeping the balls secure.
For fans of exploration and collecting rare companions, this quest is a highlight of Wobbly Life’s deeper content. Good luck, and may your glowing orbs never roll away!
