How to Find the Power Core in Sports Story

I have no idea what living and working in a mine is like, but I’m guessing electrical sources are even more important than usual in there. Can’t do much of anything in pitch darkness, after all, which means no work is getting done. Here’s how to find the Power Core in Sports Story.

How to Find the Power Core in Sports Story

After you’ve successfully recovered the members of the Britannia Cricket Team in Sports Story’s second chapter, they’ll inform you that their Captain has gone missing in the silver mines in search of the stolen Power Core. Jett Silver will suggest asking her father for an ID lanyard, though he’s a bit busy when you go to see him, so you’ll get it from his wife instead.

With the ID lanyard, you can enter the silver mines from the far right side of the main mine. You’ll need to ride the minecart to get there, switching tracks up and down to avoid obstacles. When you get to the end of the line and venture onward, you’ll eventually come upon the Captain. He’s ready to leave his hiding spot, but he’s blocked by a big rock. Tee up at the nearby sulfur pocket and launch a Potion Vial at the grey mushrooms to activate them, then use them to jump to the center island and shove the bomb cart over to the Captain.

Learning Cricket Basics

The Captain needs you to smack the bombs with your cricket bat to activate them. As he lobs them your way, press B to hit middle shots, A to hit shots on your right, and Y to hit shots on your left. Once you’ve activated the bombs, he’ll send the cart back. Switch the tracks and shove it again to launch it at the big rock and clear the way.

In the next room, the Captain decides to teach you a new cricket shot, the block. You’ll need to defend the three red bins by pressing X to block the Captain’s balls. Don’t worry if a couple of bins get knocked over; as long as there’s at least one standing at the end, you still win.

You’ll enter the darkest part of the mines next, where the “dark whispers” begin to take hold. You’re on a time limit, so start running toward the right side of the room as fast as you can. The phantoms of the Captain will guide you, so just keep on running until you make it to the other side, where the real Captain is waiting.

In the next room, the Captain will sacrifice himself to break the bridge and defend you from the Perpetrator, leaving you to enter the northern room and grab the Power Core. Return the core to the main cavern to power up the mine, earning the Silver family’s favor and allowing you to finally play their golf course.
