Forest Temple: 32 Levels & 2 Player Co-op Walkthrough

Fireboy and Watergirl in the Forest Temple is Oslo Albet’s defining 2009 collaborative platformer. Cross 32 elemental chambers using shared keyboard controls: Fireboy wades through lava, Watergirl glides over water, and green toxic sludge kills both.

Chambers: 32
Players: 2
Lava, water, acid: 3 Pools

2 player controls and character split

Both characters run concurrently on a single shared keyboard. Player 1 steers Fireboy using the arrow keys, while Player 2 directs Watergirl with W, A, and D.

Elemental hazards and door rules

1Fireboy walks freely across red lava pools but dies instantly upon contacting blue water.
2Watergirl glides safely across blue water ponds but evaporates upon touching red lava.
3Green toxic acid sludge is universally lethal to both characters.
4Both characters must stand simultaneously at their matching exit doors to complete a stage.

Levers, weight buttons, and sliding boxes

Communication over speed: Weighted floor buttons deactivate the moment a character steps off. One player must hold the pressure plate while the partner crosses the trap door.

Wall levers stay flipped once pulled, while pushable stone boxes can be shoved onto buttons or used as stepping stones over acid pits.

32 Forest Temple chambers progression

The 32 stages ramp up in puzzle complexity. Early trials teach basic pool crossing, mid-tier rooms introduce mirror light beams, and final chambers require synchronized parkour jumps.

Play in browser, no download

This original 2009 release runs smoothly in modern web browsers via HTML5 and Ruffle Flash emulation. No downloads or installations required.
