Nightwater Boon Guide: All Boons and How to Find Them

Nightwater Boon Guide: All Boons and How to Find Them

By Editorial / September 22, 2026 / Guide / 5 minutes of reading

In this guide, I explain how I find all of the Boons, which areas I need to visit, what each Boon requires, and how I trigger the hidden interactions needed to collect them.

A Helpful Tip

A quick tip that stumped me for the longest time: I don’t just left click/press E and walk away. I hold down E for a few seconds, and that makes a big difference when I am trying to collect certain Boons.

Nightwater Volcano Minigame Guide

Boon of Curiosity

The simplest one to start with!

Effect:

Area/Map: Dark Thicket (Forest Minigame)

Hint: I check behind everything!

Solution: I enter Dark Thicket and head to the right area. I find the Boon hidden behind the waterfall.

Boon of Tenacity

Just keep at it!

Effect:

Area/Map: Dark Thicket (Forest Minigame)

Hint: I need to do many runs to find this one.

Solution: I enter Dark Thicket and head to the left area. The Boon randomly appears within the ruins. It takes MANY runs to find it, so I always check the ruins during each run.

Boon of Growth

It’s the hidden things that grow best!

Effect:

Area/Map: Oasis (Desert Minigame)

Hint: If something looks out of place, I try holding E on it!

Solution: I head to Oasis, the minigame in the desert. In the second shop area, I go behind where the autoplanter sits. I find a small glowing purple arrow in the ground.

I get close to it and hold E for a few seconds to collect the Boon.

Boon of Rage

My rage is glowing purple!

Effect:

Area/Map: The Mine (Mine Minigame)

Hint: If something looks out of place, I try holding E on it!

Solution: I head to The Mine minigame. I look at the middle of the wall closest to the entry rope and find a purple glowing icon about one-third of the way down.

I get close to it and hold E to collect the Boon.

Boon of Reflection

Who knew a glow was reflective!

Effect:

Area/Map: The Mine (Mine Minigame)

Hint: If something looks out of place, I try holding E on it!

Solution: I head to The Mine minigame and look at the left-side wall from the spawn point. I find a purple glowing icon about two-thirds of the way down.

I get close to it and hold E to collect the Boon.

Boon of Accuracy

Aim well!

Effect:

Area/Map: Fuel Shortage (Snow Minigame)

Hint: I look for 3 things that are different about this map, just out of reach.

Solution: I enter Fuel Shortage and must pick the hand cannon. I look for 3 yellow spheres just outside the map boundaries.

I shoot all 3 spheres. Once I destroy them, they stay destroyed, so I try this across multiple runs. I recommend playing a round or two first and getting the range upgrade.

Once I destroy all 3, I get the Boon.

Boon of Speed

Go fast but don’t miss it!

Area/Map: Data Rush (Speedrun Minigame)

Hint: I look for parts of platforms that are out of place.

Solution: I enter Data Rush and head to the 2nd speed run. On the left, I find 2 wall-runs next to each other, with a moving platform opposite them.

I ride the moving platform and look between the two wall-runs. I see a partial platform poking out of the wall.

I dash and jump across to it, then phase through the wall to find the Boon.

Boon of Strength

What a sweet and strong melody!

Effect:

Area/Map: Altar in grass area (behind spawn)

Hint: I need a change of music before I trigger it.

Melody Hint: I check the desert for something that could play music and hold E on it!

Solution: I head to the desert biome. Behind one of the single-story houses, I find a stack of boxes with a gramophone.

I hold E on the gramophone for a few seconds. The music cuts out and new music starts playing.

I race back to the altar in the grass area behind spawn and press E. I am teleported to a small parkour section.

At the end, I find the “memory”, which is the Boon.

Boon of Luck

A lucky tune!

Effect:

Area/Map: Desert area, inside a house

Hint: I need a change of music before I trigger it.

Melody Hint: I check the desert for something that could play music and hold E on it!

Solution: I head to the desert biome. Behind one of the single-story houses, I find a stack of boxes with a gramophone.

I hold E on it for a few seconds. The music cuts out and new music starts playing.

I race across to the altar in the other house and press E. I am teleported to a small parkour section.

At the end, I find the “memory”, which is the Boon.

Boon of Determination

Determined to listen!

Effect:

Area/Map: Industrial area, behind the 5 stacked shipping containers

Hint: I need a change of music before I trigger it.

Melody Hint: I check the desert for something that could play music and hold E on it!

Solution: I head to the desert biome. Behind one of the single-story houses, I find a stack of boxes with a gramophone.

I hold E on it for a few seconds. The music cuts out and new music starts playing.

I race to the altar behind the shipping containers and press E. I am teleported to a small parkour section.

At the end, I find the “memory”, which is the Boon.

I hope you enjoy the guide.
