The heart ofCoral Islandis tied to sacred sites dotted throughout it. Each site can be investigated, and you’ll learn more about the nature of the island when you investigate some of those sites. To investigate them, you’ll obviously need to find them first, which can be challenging.

The island is larger than it seems when you’re looking at the map, and it can take some time to familiarize yourself with all the areas. Find out how many shrines there are, and where you can find them. You’ll also learn the best teleport points to use for fast travel.

Once you find one and interact with it, you’ll receivea special cutscene that will introduce you to some new game features.
