This article contains spoilers related to the Temple of Shadow on Iki Island, so don't read it if you plan on solving the puzzles yourself. In total, there are three shrines on the island of Iki. And each contains one of the interesting sets of armor.



How to find the Temple of Shadow

Head to the south coast of Iki Island, to the extreme point on the map, to find the Shrine of the Shadow. It is located on the rocks "Footprints of the Buddha", and it is not so easy to get to it. Approach the temple from the east side and try to find a place marked with a mat and a candle where you can jump over to get to the entrance. But be careful: one of the supports will break and you will need to grab the bottom one.

How to solve the Temple of Shadow puzzle

As soon as you go inside, you will immediately see references to Shadow Of The Colossus. A mark on the base of the statue adorns the colossi of the game, telling you where you need to attack to deal damage. The base of the statue also has fur skins that mimic the fur of the colossus, which the protagonist uses to climb huge monsters.



Read the poem. In the last lines of the poem, you are asked to walk through the mist like a ghost that casts no shadow. Thus, you need to equip the Ghost armor. As for the fog, you can take this message as a call to play the flute that changes the weather. But instead, stand in the middle of the temple wearing the Ghost Armor and throw a smoke bomb to fulfill the requirements of the poem. A cutscene will play and you will receive the Colossus mask and armor, as well as the Ghost armor skin.
