Split Fiction has 12 Side Stories, each offering unique challenges based on Mio and Zoe’s past works. These self-contained levels introduce different gameplay mechanics, new environments, and sometimes, pure chaos. Here’s how to find and complete them all.
Neon Revenge Side Stories
The Legend of the Sandfish
Location: After the highway chase sequence in Neon Revenge, a short cutscene introduces the Side Story portal.
Objective: Escape an hourglass while using thumpers to distract massive sandfish.
Farmlife
Location: After defeating Mr. Hammer and finishing the chase sequence, the portal is visible behind a short barrier.
Objective: Play as magical pigs with stretchy powers and rainbow farts, because why not?
Mountain Hike
Location: Find the three portable toilets in a row. Mio must enter one, and Zoe must throw it over the ledge. Mio then lowers a ladder to reach the portal.
Objective: Ride on the backs of friendly giants to explore a massive mountain range.
Hopes of Spring Side Stories
Train Heist
Location: After Mio drags Zoe through the water on a floating log, look for the portal nearby. Wallrun and grapple across a pond to reach it.
Objective: A high-speed chase featuring wingsuits, water skis, and a final boss fight against The Conductor.
Gameshow

Moon Market

Objective: Solve puzzles and find three cat spirits to open the market’s final gate.
Notebook
Location: After getting the jetpack, look for a floating ledge to the left of a massive spinning wheel of doom.
Objective: A 2D, hand-drawn adventure set inside one of Zoe’s unfinished story drafts.
Rise of the Dragon Realm Side Stories
Slopes of War
Location: Before reaching the rock-skipping pool, look left of the golden platforms for a lever puzzle that opens the portal.

Space Escape

Birthday Cake

Final Blurb
Each Side Story in Split Fiction offers a break from the main adventure with unique mechanics and often absurd scenarios. Whether you’re escaping a collapsing star or farting rainbows as a pig, they’re all worth experiencing.
