Zack & Wiki - Around the Parent

Lore #2 for Jungle Ruins is a lot more cryptic than the first one.

"Run laps around the parent with the child."

I was fiddling around with the Pit of Tragedy stage a while back and found out that you could pick up that "Totem Head" right by where you start. As it seems, this is the "child," the "parent" being the full pole at the top of the stage. At the beginning of this video, I had already transported the Totem Head up to the top. What Zack now has to do is run counterclockwise around it many many times. It gets pretty tedious.

What got me is that the treasure chest doesn't appear immediately, but only after you pull the switch that causes the ceiling to fall. The chest appears on the platform taking the place of the unstable wall, and inside it is a model of Johnny Style.

After all those times he finally didn't run away.

Also, Why is your wiki different, is it part of the story?

[Overhazard]

Yeah, Wiki's been upgraded twice.

[Ario444]

Do the upgrades do anything apart from make wiki look different?

[Overhazard]

Yeah. They attract coins from a further range and make Bonelich nicer to you.

[Ario444]

Ah, ok thanks. Perhaps I should start playing this game again.

Wait, you mean I have to finish the Final Battle of Barbaros? I won't be getting this treasure until 20 years! It's too difficult!

[Overhazard]

Yeah. As long as you've beaten the story mode already.

[maxieornot]

So, should I just do it a bunch of times and see what happens?

[Overhazard]

It's sitting there right next to where Zack begins. As for how many times, I've never really been sure. But it has to be in that direction, or it doesn't count.

[maxieornot]

Overhazard, how do you get the gold thing that you circle around with? And how many times do you circle around the parent?
