From hot and humid jungles to fetid swamps inhabited by enormous snakes, the region of Sukhothai will prove to be a challenge in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. Of course, fully exploring this land should be a very rewarding endeavor, since you can find some secret goodies. Here's our guide on where to find all Sukhothai Relics in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle.
Where to find all Sukhothai Relics in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle - Riddles of the Ancients guide
There are 24 Sukhothai Relics in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, the most out of all regions in the game. As such, you've got your work cut out for you. Don't worry, though, because our guide has all the details you need. We've also organized this article to be more in line with general progression.
Note: You will need the Rebreather to access some of these areas. The tool can be purchased from Tongdang. Also, while you're roaming around, we suggest grabbing other collectibles, such as the Lost Artifacts of Asia.
Where to find the Sukhothai Relics booklet?
The Sukhothai Relics booklet shows you the locations of these collectibles on your map. If you want to bring something handy on your journey, you need to complete a certain brain teaser in the northern part of the zone. You can learn more about this in our Elephant in the Room guide.
Sukhothai Relics map
Of course, we also have a map that has the locations of all Sukhothai Relics in the game. We've organized these into the following activities:
Those numbered from 1 to 18 are acquired while free-roaming or while tackling quests.
We've also grouped some of these if they're from a specific dungeon/underground temple.
The remaining six relics have green icons, since they're obtained as part of an entirely different activity. We discuss this in our Khmer Cogwheel Puzzles guide.
Sukhothai Relic #1
The first Indiana Jones and the Great Circle Sukhothai Relic that you'll likely find is in the northwestern part of the map. It's part of the Blessed Pearl main quest. Once the Hidden Pyramid has been revealed, ride your boat across the lake and bring it to the ruined tower to the right. Climb it and pick up this item.
Sukhothai Relic #2
The next Sukhothai Relic is at the submerged entrance of the Hidden Pyramid. Here's a quick summary:
While doing this quest, Indy has to swim underwater, passing through openings just to avoid a gigantic anaconda.
Eventually, you should be able to surface at the outer section of the structure. The item is at the other end of the dark corridor.
Alternatively, and assuming you have the Sukhothai Relics booklet, bring it out to make the icon appear on your screen. Then, at the middle part of the pyramid's base, swim underwater to find an opening.
Sukhothai Relic #3
Once you're inside the pyramid proper, you'll find yourself in a cavernous area with a deep pool of water. The anaconda is also swimming around these parts. To your right, there are stone ledges that allow you to reach this relic.
Sukhothai Relic #4
Well after defeating the anaconda, you have to climb all the way to the top of the pyramid's interior. There's a junction here where you can either go left or right. Choose to go to the right and you'll spot vines on the cliff's edge. Jump across the chasm and grab hold of the vine so you can continue climbing.
Sukhothai Relic #5
This Indiana Jones and the Great Circle Sukhothai Relic can be yours when you're tackling the Lost in the Past quest. It requires you to complete the first portion of The Blessed Pearl (i.e. escaping the Hidden Pyramid). When you're done with that, you can talk to Sunan to learn about the Wat Sa Si ruins to the west.
Enter the ruins until you see a prayer wheel in the middle of the chamber. Look to your right and go through the crawlspace to get this item.
Sukhothai Relic #6
At the northern part of the region, there's an abandoned shed. You can reach it by swinging across the gap with your whip.
Sukhothai Relic #7
This particular Sukhothai Relic in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle has a mini-puzzle of sorts:
Follow the winding river as it curves east from the Hidden Pyramid entrance.
When you see the waterfall, go through the narrow opening.
The wall puzzle here requires you to place several relics that you've found in Sukhothai and other regions, with the goal of raising all nodes/indentations.
You can rotate the relic to the right to raise all nodes in horizontal and vertical lines. Alternatively, you can rotate the relic to the left to raise all adjacent nodes.
Sukhothai Relic #8
This Sukhothai Relic is actually a reward for opening the Serpent's Chest. The reason why we have a separate guide for it is because you actually have to look for keys from previously visited areas.
Sukhothai Relic #9
Make your way to the Secret Armory fast travel point. Then, check the table in the base. We suggest obtaining the Royal Army Uniform so you don't alert the guards.
Sukhothai Relics: Wat Si Sawai map
The next items that we discuss in our Indiana Jones and the Great Circle Sukhothai Relics guide come from the Wat Si Sawai underground dungeon.
Sukhothai Relic #10
You'll find this relic once you've gotten past the chambers with the spinning clock gears. Once Indy and Gina open the stone doorway, go straight ahead to the dead end and pick up this item.
Sukhothai Relic #11
This relic can be yours once you've arrived at the Khmer Pipeworks puzzle chamber. Check the right-hand side so you can pick up a two-handed melee weapons next to the basket with torches. Go down the steps and smash the weakened wall to grab this object.
Sukhothai Relic #12
This collectible is in front of the Shiva statue in the last room of this dungeon. You need to rescue Sunan's nephew, Aran, to gain access to this area.
Sukhothai Relic: Explosion Site map
These Sukhothai Relics in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle are located in the underground ruins at the Explosion Site. You can only go to this area during or after a quest called A Study in Fear. This particular quest becomes available once you've escaped from the Hidden Pyramid. Just talk to Pailin so you can tackle the objectives.
Sukhothai Relic #13
Found in the first room with giant gears. Go to the top of the ledge and hop across the cogwheel.
Sukhothai Relic #14
Proceed normally until you reach the part where Indy and Annika escape from the ceiling spike trap. In the next area, climb up the ledge and check the room at the back.
Sukhothai Relic #15
Eventually, you'll arrive at the Demon's Tomb puzzle chamber, which happens to have a Lost Artifact of Asia. Go to the back of this room and look for a way to reach the far ledge.
Sukhothai Relic: Wat Mahathat map
After escaping the Hidden Pyramid, you should be able to tackle the next part of the Blessed Pearl main quest, which takes you to Wat Mahathat. The map above shows the locations of the three more Sukhothai Relics in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle.
Sukhothai Relic #16
The main puzzle in this dungeon is called the Great Game, which requires you to position villagers to make the large plinths rotate. Once the doorway has been opened, look below you to see a body of water. Jump and swim underwater to pick up this reward.
Sukhothai Relic #17
Immediately after getting Sukhothai Relic #16, make your way to the next chamber. As you're going down the steps, swing across the gap to your right to spot this collectible.
Sukhothai Relic #18
The last Sukhothai Relic in Wat Mahathat is in the underground pond with leeches that you need to avoid. Simply cross the gap by using your whip. Once you're on the middle platform, hop across the rock formations to acquire this item.
That does it for our guide on where to find all Sukhothai Relics in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. Don't forget to complete the Khmer Cogwheel Puzzles so you can obtain all these goodies. Speaking of which, be sure to check our collectible guides for the Vatican and Gizeh, too. Doing so leads you to the game's secret ending.
