Down in Bermuda is a third person adventure set in the mysterious Bermuda Triangle. After your plane crashes, you must explore the islands and avoid dangerous creatures to discover the islands' secrets and make your way to safety. There are 25 Steam Achievements, all documented in the walkthrough below.

Turtle Island

Slide the 4 blocks into their correct positions. Look over to the left and press the red button on the new machine. Slide the lever to the right, then look at the back of the machine and slide the other lever down Explorer. On the front of the machine, press both red buttons and slide the lever to the right. Click on the 2 blue wheels so together they form the shape of a triangle. After Herman comes out, take the orb (1/2).

Look down at the Star Monument and press the triangular button to see there are 7 stars missing. Pick up the star map (1/1) from under the low archway (but do not open it, or you will miss an achievement at the end). Search the island to find all 7 stars (7/7):

  • On the large rock right next to the star monument
  • In the treasure chest on the beach
  • In the wreckage of your plane
  • Under the short archway with the star map
  • Next to the short archway with the star map
  • Under the tall archway
  • Behind Herman's building

Once you have found them all, press the triangular button again. Take the final orb (2/2) Orb Collector. Click on the photo (1/1) to the side of the tall narrow arch. Now press the round button on the Orb Gate. This is how you will be able to reach the main game map from any of the items in the game.

Secret Base Island

Scroll over to the right to find a small boat house with several canoes outside. Take the star map (1/1) from inside one of the canoes, and the photo (1/1) from the ground next to the boat house. Search the chest behind the boat house to find the yellow key (1/1). Now open the yellow lock (1/2) just below here to find 2 lost relics (2/7). Find another chest on the ocean floor between the sea mines and open it to find another lost relic (3/7). Find a tiny heart-shaped rock on the ocean floor behind the lighthouse to discover the next lost relic (4/7). You cannot collect the other lost relics yet.

There are several yellow puffer fish floating near the bottom of the ocean. Click on these a total of 10 times to make them inflate Puffer Fish Party. Now search the area to find the first 17 stars (17/26):

  • Inside the boat house
  • Beneath a hatch in the ocean floor next to the boat house
  • Inside the green petals on a rocky arch near this hatch
  • In a small cave on the ocean floor at the base of this arch
  • Beneath the puffer fish near the group of sea mines
  • Beneath the puffer fish near the front of the lighthouse

  • Beneath a hatch in the ocean floor behind the lighthouse

Press the square button on the back of the lighthouse island, then slide both levers to the right. In the segment that opens, slide the top lever, then the right lever, then the bottom lever. Finally press the button on the left and collect 3 stars (20/26).

Next press the round button to the left of the lighthouse island, then turn the wheel to meet DAVID. If you number the four buttons to the left 1-4 from top to bottom, press them in this order: 3, 2, 4, 1.

DAVID will now raise a tower from the ocean floor near the front of the lighthouse. Slide the purple knob around the tower. Press the two buttons to slide them, then press the two buttons that appear. Press the four new buttons at the base of the tower, then slide down the new lever at the top. Drag the large lever to the far side of the disc, and a new tower will arise. Open the door at its base and slide the two levers to the right.

A third tower will arise. Press the four buttons, then turn the top of the third tower. Pull the lever down at the top of the second tower, and the third tower will grow. You can click on the purple segments here to reveal 4 symbols: circle, diamond, diamond, square. Spin the discs on the second tower to create a matching pattern lined up with the arrow above. Grab the orb (1/4).

After the sea monster leaves, click on the broken panel beneath DAVID and take 2 stars (22/26). Press the red button 6 times, then spin the purple dial. Click on Milton's small rowboat 3 times to break the crate beneath. Now pick up the next 3 stars (25/26). Go over to where DAVID is waiting, and drag the lever to the left. Look at the segmented stone monument above and click on the 2nd and 4th pieces to rotate them and complete the patterns. Drag the lever back to the right. Take the orb (2/4) that DAVID gives you. Open the small door just to the left of DAVID and take the final star (26/26).

Press the triangular button on the Star Monument next to the boat house, and a temple will rise up nearby. There are 4 red buttons around the edges of the temple, and you need to set them to match 4 symbols scattered around the area:

  • Rear Left: On the back of the broadest rock island
  • Front Left: On the base of the rocky arch near the boat house
  • Rear Right: On the side of the building that holds the segmented stone monument
  • Front Right: On the side of the temple right here

After the temple door opens, take the next orb (3/4). Once you have access to the barrel cannon, just shoot 12 barrels without adjusting any of the settings Barrel Blast. Now you need to target each of the mines by choosing these settings:

  • Top, second from left
  • Bottom, second from left
  • Middle, left

After the sea monster is dead, take the final orb (4/4) Secret Agent. Press the round button on the Orb Gate to travel again.

You cannot collect the other lost relic yet.

Click on each of the 5 brown bunnies several times to get them to dive into holes, then take the 3 stars (3/26) from near the hollow tree trunk. Find a group of 6 red mushrooms and work out the order to press them so they all stay down, then take another 3 stars (6/26) from the triangular opening. Now search the area to find the remaining 20 stars (26/26):

After the duck has returned to his hut, open the door again. Repeat this a third time Quack Attack.

Press the triangular button on the Star Monument next to the boat house, and 3 wooden pillars will rise up nearby - each holds an owl with a different colored circle. You need to rotate these pillars so the colored circles face the same direction as on 3 smaller wooden pillars on the nearby hill. Take the next orb (2/5).

Find a green creature with a backpack standing on a rock. Talk to him, then pull the lever he reveals 4 times. Press all 4 buttons on the tower that appears. Pull up the next machine, press the button, then flip all 4 switches. Pull up another machine, then pull out both side panels. Now you need to quickly press all 4 buttons. Pull up yet another machine and drag the slider to the right, then pull out the side panel. Rapidly press the button to raise the gauge to green.

Go to the next machine and press both buttons. Press all 4 round buttons on the next machine that pops up (and note the symbols on the four small wooden doors that open). Lift up the wooden hatch, then click on the colored panels to make them match those on the green pillar on the adjacent machine (from top to bottom: light green, white, yellow, black). Next pull the 4 levers to the left or right based on the positions of the 4 symbols on the small wooden doors. For restoring electricity, take this creature's orb (3/5).

Find Milton poking a beehive, then click on the beehive and you will end up opening a round doorway in the nearby dam. Rotate the stone discs below to guide water to the fountain so you can get the next orb (4/5).

Press the triangular button on the Star Monument, and 3 spinning multi-leveled crow's nests will rise out of the water. Now move the cannon so that it aims at one of these, and shoot each of the targets on its three levels. Move around and do this for the other crow's nests as well (use the small loop of train tracks to change the way the cannon is facing as needed). Take the orb (1/3) that appears when you have finished all three.

Shoot 3 cannon balls into the weak spots on the ship in the middle of the map to sink it. Now shoot at the Kraken to guide it into the whirlpool. Try to do this with a maximum of 7 cannon balls, bearing in mind it will keep moving until it hits a barrier The Kraken Challenge. Grab another orb (2/3) from over the whirlpool.
