Tinykin Waters of Balnea Walkthrough Guide – All Pollen Cluster, Artifact, and Letter Locations

Tinykin Waters of Balnea Walkthrough Featured Image

Waters of Balnea, a far more flattering than it actually is, is the domain of water and night. Home to outcasts of opposite characters, they have a hard time coexisting with one another. The aquatic festivities draw partygoers from the whole house but the extended festivities was the straw that broke the camel’s back for the passive residents of Balnea.

In this guide, we’ll tell you everything regarding the game’s many collectibles, namely pollen clusters, artifacts, and letters. We’ll also tell you about some sneaky spots where more pollen can be found. Otherwise, the pollen themselves are easy to find on its own. As for everything else about the level, you can collect the items of interest in any order you wish. We’re just here to point you in the right direction.

Waters of Balnea Overview

There’s trouble in paradise. The partying silver bugs are getting a little too out of control. As a result of their non-stop partying, the dung beetles are starting to lose sleep. In a misguided bid to settle things down, the dung beetles’ mayor took up the scissors of the city and started to cut power cables. This infuriated the silver bug’s leader and is now threatening to cast the scissors to the bottom of the tub if the party doesn’t restart… and soon.

To ease tensions on both sides, we’ll need to get the party going again. It’s going to require 5 things: a toy boat, an active hand blower, a jukebox blasting loud music, a laser pointer, and a bottle of bubbly soap.

When all these things are brought to the bathtub, all is forgiven and we can get the scissors before things get too unruly.

Pollen Clusters

Lamp Cluster

The first Pollen Cluster is located on top of the lamp. To uncover it, you’ll need to run electricity through the socket with the help of 3 blue tinykin. This will cause the lamp to turn on and make the cluster appear. You’ll also need around 19 green tinykin to reach the top via the book on the side.

Lighting up the TP fortress

The second pollen cluster is uncovered after blowing up the covers of about 8-9 stubby candles. They are located all around the toilet paper settlement. Once you’ve uncovered them all, the cluster will appear in the center at the top of a stack of toilet paper.

A pollen cluster too far

The third pollen cluster is located along a pipe seen from the side of the dung beetle’s side of the bathroom. To reach it you’ll need to climb the ceiling starting from the clothes presser and then destroying a wooden barricade with the help of 6 red tinykin. The Cluster will be on the other side.

Running the curtain

The fourth Pollen Cluster is located on the far side of the shower curtain. You can reach the area by climbing up the shelves and walking across the shower curtain.

Delivering all 4 letters

After you’ve delivered all the letters to the mailbox, a pollen cluster will appear. Keep reading to find out the locations of the letters below.

Hidden Pollen on top of some toilet rolls

There are several pieces of pollen on top of a stack of toilet rolls. It can be accessed by going up one level and going across the bridge from the lamp.

Hidden Pollen in the clothes presser

There are a number of pollen in the clothes presser, to get to them you’ll need form a ladder with green tinykin, and while facing the initial pit, jump past the exhaust blades to get into the hidden chamber.

Hidden Pollen in the Cabinet

In the cabinet where you needed to open with the help of the pink tinykin, there are pollen wedged on top of the towels where you found the fourth letter.

Water of Balnea Letters

Under the sink

This letter can be found inside the sink across from the toilet. You’ll need to climb down a rope to access the area.

On top of the hand blower

The second letter can be found on top of the hand blower across the vent you initially entered the area from.

The hanging TP

The third letter is located under the table next to the tub, on top of a suspended roll of toilet paper. You’ll need to go up the suspended items to reach it.

Beside Teddy

On the second level shelf in the cabinet of the silverbug’s side of the bathroom. The cabinet is next to the silverbug mail carriers’ break area.

Artifact Locations

Steel Entrail

Open the clothes presser machine with the help of blue tinykin and traverse its guts to claim the diamond on the other side. Give it to the suspiciously looking bug with the ring case to claim your artifact.

Ring of Eternity

Earned after helping Rose and Jack, two lost souls, defy their families and live as one. This involves taking tokens of their love for each other. Requires unlocking the door between the realms. (Be mindful that if you decide to take Rose’s token early, your tinykin will be stuck holding it until you open the door from the other side.

Ring of New Beginning

Earned after helping Romain get his Teddy friend clean by taking it to the washing machine. Needs 15 pink tinykin to carry. And you’ll need to electrify the machine with the help of blue tinykin.

A couple more things to note:

900 pieces of pollen are needed to unlock next the bubble upgrade. The cabinet that has Romain’s teddy friend is probably the only place that has pollen that’s not easily found.

1200 pieces of pollen for level completion. Collecting all the pollen unlocks the Party Forager achievement.

And that’s it. Hope this helps. See you guys in our next guide.
