How to Sweep Secret Holograms Without Backtracking Pain
If you are hunting every Secret Hologram in Planet of Lana II: Children of the Leaf, the big picture helps first: there are 10 total holograms, and they are spread across Chapter 1, Chapter 3, Chapter 5, and Chapter 7. Treat them like a chapter checklist, not a vague collectible sweep.
All Secret Holograms by Chapter
- Chapter 1: 1 hologram
- Chapter 3: 4 holograms
- Chapter 5: 1 hologram
- Chapter 7: 4 holograms
You know that nasty little moment. The room is solved, the last gap is behind you, and the camera starts sliding right like it already has somewhere better to be. Then your brain goes, wait... what was that weird glow under the ledge? That is how Planet of Lana II: Children of the Leaf gets you. Secret Holograms are the hidden collectibles, and there are 10 total. If you want a clean run, treat every side pocket, low tunnel, and extra climb near an exit like a warning light. Before you take the big obvious path, check the dull little corner first.
The best habit is simple: solve the puzzle, then do one short wrong-way lap. A wall jump, meaning kicking off a wall to reach a higher ledge, can hide a collectible route just off the main path. The same goes for a small Mui command prompt that sends your companion through a side gap, or a drop that looks too small to matter. That fits this sequel's bigger movement kit and its split Lana-and-Mui puzzle design. If the game opens up into a wide shot of frozen peaks, deep water, or old ruins, stop for five seconds. Check the high path. Then check the low path. Then move on.
If you think you missed one, fix it early. Do not trust the next screen to somehow make it better. Turn around at the next safe spot and retrace only to the last room where you could still move objects, split Lana and Mui, or pick between two routes. Tip: if a section snaps into a chase or another obvious one-way run, assume the collectible window just slammed shut and search the previous calm screen first. That usually saves you from the worst cleanup version of this, where you already know the hologram was there and now you are replaying half a chapter out of pure stubborn rage.
Route Rule That Keeps This Manageable
Use a simple rule: any time the game gives you a suspicious side ledge, a small climb above the main route, or a detour that looks a little too quiet, check it before you solve the next major puzzle. That habit matters more than memorizing every single room name, because most hologram misses happen when you commit to the obvious forward path too early.
