In the third part of the Airoheart Walkthrough, we head to the 2nd dungeon called Castle Radion, which lies to the west of the world.
We previously took down The Monastery in part 1, gaining the new Magic Shoelaces which allows us to dodge now. We'll need to be using this later!
Before you head off to the second dungeon, it might be worth checking out our Heart Melon Guide, Rune Locations Guide and Blacksmith Crafting guide. You can find some early-game upgrades through these guides that might be helpful to you in the second dungeon.
So first off, you'll want to head to the south-east of the map to find the next dungeon. If you start from Llanfair County and make your way around to Central Hills, you'll come across a castle like area.
Here you'll be able to find the linear path up to the Castle Radion doorway.
Castle Radion Dungeon
As you begin this dungeon, you'll want to immediate head left and use your new dodge ability to jump over the gap.
Once across, push down the block on the right of the map and you'll come to 5 new moveable blocks with symbols.
You need to push them in the following order: 3, 5, 2, 4, 1. This will unlock the barriers further down, with which you will need to do another dodge roll to get across.
Take your time getting across the moving spinner and metal blocks. You can find a Health Potion in one of the pots. Keep heading right.
You'll come to two spike platforms; you'll need to time a perfect dodge twice to get across. Head down the door.
You'll come to a new room with a running bomb; let it detonate and then make your way across the middle bridge (feel free to go down the sides to pick up the loot from the pots also!).
You'll then come to a large room. In the center, surrounded by spikes, is a Time Tile that you'll need to activate. Once done, head forward quickly to get through the barrier. Then continue to your left.
You'll then come to a room with 4 spark shooters; they're easy enough to dodge- just look for the safe spots.
Head to the bottom of this map and push the left-most block down so you can then make your way outside of the dungeon.
Head all the way to the left up the castle wall and you'll find a Treasure Chest containing a Crossbow- allowing you to now fire arrows! You can carry a maximum of 20 arrows at a time.
Head back inside the dungeon and towards the beginning where you had to move the 5 tiles in order area.
You will get a notification that you can use your new Crossbow to unlock a hidden door. You'll notice two small holes on the right wall; fire them both with an arrow and the door to your left will unlock.
In this room, you'll find two electric ghost monsters and a swinging ball and chain. Make your way across the room to the left door and you'll come to a corridor with some flower monsters hanging out.
Wipe them out and follow the corridor left.
You will then come to a room with a flying spinner. Head through the top most door.
In this room you need to hit the statue in the middle so that the barriers go down. Once across, turn around and hit it with your crossbow so the other barriers go down. Exit the room to the top-left.
You'll find two turtle monsters in this room. You'll need to kill both of them to unlock the door on your right; hitting them once will cause them to start flinging around the room so be careful!
Head to the right door and you'll come to a room with two plant monsters and spark rock. Head to the bottom right to exit the room and you'll come to a diagonal corridor.
Exit to the right and you'll come to another room with a ball and chain spinning in the center. Dodge it and exit to the right.
In the next room you'll notice a strange tile on the right. If you land on the left one, a mimic body appears.
You can control it by moving around- you'll notice it does the opposite of your movements. So you just need to get the mimic to head straight to the tile in the top left to activate the barrier.
Take the door north and you'll come to a set of stairs with a letter L on the right. Take the left door on the corridor.
In this room you'll notice a golden statue that is surrounded by a spinning propeller. Hit the statue and then take the stairs south around the room to the door on the left side of the room.
In this room you'll go past another spinning propeller; head down the stairs to the north door and then go left past some slimes.
Head up the stairs, dodge another spinning propeller, past two metal blocks and you'll come to a Treasure Chest containing a key!
Head back to the room with the statue and propeller and this time go up the north stairs and unlock the door.
You'll enter a room with a spinning eye that follows you. If the eye looks at a door, it will lock it. First head to the left door.
In this room there is a spinning eye and a tile to generate a mimic. You need to get the mimic to activate the barrier switch so that the eye doesn't lock the north facing door. Once you've done that, follow the north door.
This will send you to a corridor with a fake Treasure Chest and a statue that you need to hit. Hitting this statue will up the barriers in the first eye room, now allowing you to go right.
Once you take the door to the right, head further up and take the north door. Here you'll find the final Treasure Chest; to unlock it, you need to fire Arrows into the holes around the room. Once you get the Kobold Tech Key, head back to the beginning of the dungeon.
Now you'll want to head through the north door. On your way, open all the pots up to get a good stack of Arrows going in as you're going to need them.
You'll come to a ledge with two Powder Kegs; stand on the Time Tile and fire an arrow at the bombs to explode them. Once both are down, dodge across and open up the door to the boss!
Boss Fight - Castle Radion Boss
The Castle Radion Boss is a giant eye! And he also has floating eyes spinning around him all the time that fire lasers out towards you.
You'll need to take out these eyes and then once the main boss opens up its eye, fire as many arrows as you can into it. Each eye that floats around the main boss takes two hits to take out.
As the fight progresses, the Castle Radion Boss will summon more and more eyes that float around it, up to a max of 4 eyes!
If you run out of arrows, there are pots in the chamber that you can open. You can only carry 20 Arrows at a time, so don't use the pots if you have close to max.
There are also health hearts in the pots at the top of the dungeon.
If you have the Rune Of Ember equipped, you can use that instead of Arrows to deal lots of damage too.

Once you defeat the boss, go and collect your third piece of the soulstone! You'll also now unlock the ability to throw boulders, unlocking some new hidden areas around the game!
That wraps up part 3 of the Airoheart Walkthrough! Let us know if we missed anything in this dungeon in the comments below!
