Disney Epic Mickey 2: Rebrushed - Notilus Quest Guide

Besides Mickey and Gremlin Gus, the character you'll see most at the beginning of Disney Epic Mickey: Rebrushed is Oswald. He'll be teasing you, always one step ahead. You'll finally meet him at the top of Mickeyjunk Mountain, and from there, your journey to leave Wasteland will begin.

The first step of this journey will be the Notilus area. You'll reach it after powering up the Tomorrow City projector screen. You'll need to raise the Notilus back up to continue.

Raising The Notilus

Notilus is the first area in the Tomorrow City arc and also one of the smaller ones. You can see the whole area at once. Your main goal is to raise the Notilus from the thinner pool.

To do this, you'll need to get on top of the two crane-shaped pillars on either side.

You'll find multiple gears and platforms attached to these pillars. Each platform will start rotating once the two gears connected to it are painted. You can use them to climb higher:

* Start from the bottom platform by painting both wheels beside it. Once the platform is level and you can stand on it, thin one of the wheels out so it stops moving. This isn't necessary, but it makes things easier. * Once you're on a specific platform, repeat the process with the one a little higher. However, while you're painting the gears for the next platform, be careful not to accidentally paint the ones you're standing on. * After doing this a few times, you can reach the top where you can paint another gear to activate the pillar. You have to do this twice, once on each pillar, to raise the Notilus.

Saving The Gremlin In Notilus

While exploring Notilus, you'll likely see a trapped Gremlin inside a cage on the left side. It's easy to spot the Gremlin but not so easy to reach it. Here's how to do it:

* Start by looking around the area and finding a spot on the wall where you can see a thin structure extending out with a small cage on it. Paint this structure and then thin the base of the pillar beside it. This will make the pillar fall onto the extended part. You can then use it to reach the top of the hut-type structure and paint the first gear on it. This will extend another platform to your left, which you can then use to get to a concept art high up. * After getting the art, you'll notice another small painted structure here with a pillar on it. Thin it out to reveal your second gear, which will make the pillars near the Gremlin rise up when you paint it. * You can then use these pillars to get on top of the Gremlin building and thin it out to jump inside. If you free this Gremlin before fixing the Notilus, he'll do it for you. * You will find the third gear inside the place where the Gremlin was trapped, which only leaves one more in the area.

Once you've painted all four hidden gears, the entrance to the hut-like building will open, granting you access to a Pin chest inside.
