The entrance to the Grey Labyrinth at the southernmost tip of Star𒊎light Strand, behind a giant Boom Gordo. However, heading straight there won’t do you any good; even if you can get past the Gordo, you’ll need to do a few things first. 

Note: It’s not advisable to head directly to the Grey Labyrinth after starting a brand new save file. You’ll need a lot of mid-game resources and to have progressed at least partially of the way through the story, although how far exactly you need to get is currently unclear.

The first step of the arduous journey into the new area is completed by visiting the Comm Station and calling Viktor. He’ll give you the blueprint for a Radiant Projector, which you’re going to need a few steps in▨to this trek. 

Once you’ve got the recipe, head down into the basement cavern and use the Fabricator to craft two Radiant Projectors. It’s fജound in the “Utilities” section, and in total, you’ll need the following resou🌠rces:

  • 20 Hunter Plorts
  • 20 Boom Plorts
  • 10 Silky Sand
  • 10 Lava Dust
  • 1,000 Newbucks

Now that you’ve got your Radiant Projectors, you can head to the Ember Vall✱ey to get rid of the giant Boom Gordo (if you haven’t already done this). To do this, you’ll need to feed it one of t🍸he following:

  • 50 Meat
  • 25 Briar Hens

The light puzzle inside the entrance༒ to the Grey Labyrinth might seem daunting at first, but with your Radiant Projectors, ꦚit’s actually very simple to solve. 

As you enter, the light is coming from the right side o🌳f the cavern. Place one Radiant Projector in the path of the light, making it change direction and aim towards the left of the cavern. Then, place the second Radiant Projector in the new path of light, aiming it towards the back of the cavern where the door is blocking your way to the Grey Labyrinth itself. 

Once you’ve done this, you’ll be able to pass through the door and make your way into the Labyrinth to discover all of its 🍰hidden secrets and Slimes.
