There is a whole underwater world to explore inHello Kitty Island Adventure, filled with new resources to gather and quests to complete. Sadly, swimming under the water can be pretty slow, but there is a way to speed things along.
The underwater areas ofIsland Adventureopen up for exploration once you’veunlocked the basic Flippersthrough Keroppi andunlocked the Snorkelthrough Kuromi. It’s a vast space, rivaling the landlocked areas in size and secrets, but it can take a long time to explore.
If you want to upgrade your Flippers to the faster version, here’s what you need to know.
How to get Fast Flippers in Hello Kitty Island Adventure
However you look at it, Fast Flippers are a late-game upgrade. You’ll only be able to get them once you’ve completed a long list of quests:
I know this looks like a dreadfully long process, and it is, but you’ll be able to complete these quests through regular gameplay as a natural part of progression.
Completing “Rain or Shine” will unlock rain on Friendship Island, and it’s this rain that you’ll need if you want to unlock Fast Flippers because the rain will make Rainfall Flowers emerge in any area where it happens to be raining. These flowers can be watered using theWatering Can, just as you would water Gift Flowers.
Every time you water a Rainfall Flower, you stand a chance to get the Fast Flippers recipe. Once you’ve got that, you’ll need to continue watering Raindrop Flowers to get 50 of their usual resource, Raindrops.
Once you’ve got the recipe and the required 50 Raindrops, you can craft Fast Flippers at either of the Crafting Tables in Seaside Resort or Gemstone Town.You only need your original Flippers and the 50 Raindrops to make Fast Flippers.
Are Fast Flippers worth it?
In a single word, yes. Fast Flippers dramatically increase your swimming speed both on the surface of the water and while diving. This is useful for underwater exploration because it means you’ll be able to get further using less stamina.
The effect will also stack withcharacter abilitiesand potions, so you can team up with Hangyodon, consume a Swimming Speed potion, and zip through the waters of Rainbow Reef at lightning speed.
