Open the Dream Castle door to the Lion King Realm. It just tasks 10,000 Dreamlight.

A mysterious place awaits beyond the door. As you enter, you see Nala. Surrounding her, just beyond the clearing, are an awful lot of eyes in the dark jungle.

Quest Task: Explore the Lion King Realm.

Keep your eyes peeled as you move about the Lion King Realm. It’s a bit eerie with all the eyes in the dark staring down at you. But there are 2 hidden treasure chests you don’t want to miss. One is in this first area. The other is hidden by foliage, close to where you’ll meet Simba.

As you’d been warned by Merlin, Nala doesn’t recognize you when you meet her in the Lion King Realm. Her roar is fierce, but that’s understandable. She’s surrounded by Hyenas. Those eyes in the dark have you on guard as well.

Nala is looking for Simba, but she needs to get rid of the Hyenas before she can go any farther. She can hold them off for a while longer, but she needs a way to prevent them from following her beyond this clearing.

You have a great idea.

If you dig up some of the thorn bushes in the area, you can get seeds to replant. With your magic and Royal Watering Can, the seed will grow into a barrier that will prevent the Hyenas from following.

Quest Task: Dig out the dried thorn bushes to find some Thorn Bush Seeds – 5.

After collecting enough Thorn Bush Seeds, plant them near the ledge.

Be sure to water them. They only take moments to grow into a formidable hedge. That should stop the eyes in the dark from moving closer.

Quest Task: Plant the seeds in the holes near the ledge in the dried out oasis, then water them until they grow.

Quest Task: Water the seeds close to the ledge at the far side of the oasis – 5.

The thorn barrier will hold off the Hyenas for now, but you still aren’t going anywhere fast. There is a huge stump blocking the way into the jungle.

Pull out your Royal Shovel. It makes quick work of removing the large stumps.

Quest Task: Talk to Nala.

Quest Task: Find a way into the cave so you can reach the jungle.

The path is now clear. Nala is ready to continue her search for Simba.

Offer to help. Two of you searching is sure to be better than just one!

Head down the path you just opened and into the jungle.

Quest Task: Talk to Nala.

Simba isn’t anywhere to be seen. You and Nala decide to split up.

Head to the waterfall. There is a large rock pile that is supporting a log high above. Remove the rock pile and the log falls across the path above, forming a great bridge to the other side of the jungle.

Quest Task: Find a way to lower the log near the waterfall.

Cross your new log bridge and follow the path. A second treasure chest is hiding in a little alcove off the next clearing. But more importantly, Simba is just up ahead.

Quest Task: Cross the river and search the other side for Simba.

Simba is on guard and doesn’t sound very friendly as you approach. Luckily Nala gave you the “magic words” that will let Simba know you are a friend. Hakuna matata!

That did the trick. Simba stands down and gives you a chance to explain why you are there.

That’s twice in one quest you just barely avoided being eaten!

Quest Task: Talk to Simba.

Simba doesn’t waste any time heading off in the direction you indicated to find Nala.

Follow along and watch the reunion.

Quest Task: Follow Simba to Nala and watch their joyous reunion.

Now that Simba and Nala have found each other, Simba wants to share a special dish he learned to like when he lived in the jungle with Timon and Pumbaa.

He’d like your help collecting the ingredients…Bugs!

The Slimy Bugs are found in the nearby river. Pull out your Royal Fishing Rod and start fishing.

Quest Task: Talk to Simba.

Quest Task: Collect the following bugs:

• Find the Colorful Bugs in the dried-out oasis – 6
• Fish the Slimy Bugs out of the river – 3

The Colorful Bugs Simba needs are not in the same area of the jungle.

Return to the dried-out oasis where you first met Nala. The colorful bugs are hiding in the cracked earth spots there.

Use your Royal Shovel to dig up 6 Colorful Bugs.

There is one more type of Bug that Simba needs for his special dish. Red Bugs.

Red Bugs hid under tree stumps in the area where you met Simba for the first time. These bugs are fast, so you’ll need to be quick if you want to catch them.

Quest Task: Return to Simba.

Quest Task: Remove the stump deeper in the jungle to find the Red Bugs.

When you finally have all the bugs in your Inventory, head to the unique cooking station found nearby. It’s looks like a grouping of stumps on the side of the clearing.

You are going to make 2 Bug Platters. Now this is a first!!

Bug Platter Recipe

• Colorful Bugs – 2
• Red Bugs – 2
• Slimy Bug – 1

Quest Task: Catch the Red Bugs – 6.

Quest Task: Cook three Bug Platters using the Red Bugs, Colorful Bugs and Slimy Bugs – 3.

Pro Tip: Red Bugs are found under ‘Dairy’, Colorful under ‘Quest item’, Slimy under ‘Fish’ in the Ingredients Wheel

Remy always says that food presentation is almost as important as the food. That seems to be the case here as well.

Nala, although reluctant at first, thinks that Bug Platter looks tasty and is willing to give it a try.

Quest Task: Make sure you have the Bug Platter in your inventory – 3.

Quest Task: Bring the Bug Platter to Nala.

Just as Nala finishes her meal, she hears unwelcome noise in the jungle.

The eyes in the dark have returned. And this time there are a lot more of them. Too many for just her and Simba to handle. They’d need a herd of lions to handle this many!!

Image Credit: IzziBGran / GamifiedLife, LLC

A herd of lions? Now that’s an idea. Perhaps Simba and Nala can simply make enough noise so that the hyenas think there is a herd of lions here. All you need is something to amplify their voices.

Head back to Dreamlight Valley and talk to Scrooge!

Quest Task: Go back to Dreamlight Valley and talk to Scrooge McDuck.

It worked! The Sound System really did make is sound like there was a whole herd of lions in the jungle.
