Yooka-Replaylee is bursting at the seams with collectibles scattered about its numerous worlds, like any good 3D platformer collectathon should have. While the game does a great job of tracking what you have found, it’s not always easy to track them down in the first place. From Pagies to Play Coins, we are here to help you find them all! So, here is our Yooka-Replaylee Glitterglaze Glacier Quills Guide.
Check out our Yooka-Replaylee Review for our full thoughts on the game.
Glitterglaze Glacier Quills Guide
There are a total of 150 orange Quills to find across the first Grand Tome world you visit, Tribalstack Tropics. They are often grouped in threes or fours and are usually out in the open. Keep your eyes peeled and check all the nooks and crannies to find them all.
Or use this list to help you find any you may be missing!
3 Quills (3/150)
The first batch of quills is right in front of you as you start in Glitterglaze Glacier, right next to Vendi.
3 Quills (6/150)
Continue forward and jump into the pool of water. Underneath the short ramp are three more Quills to grab.
3 Quills (9/150)
The next three quills are on the right in plain view as soon as you leave the cave.
4 Quills (13/150)
Walk to the wooden bridge with a Mark fast travel point over it, turn around and head up the slope, and through the tunnel to access a cave.
You need to find and light all the braziers to melt the ice.
Once all the braziers are lit, the ice will melt, turning into water. Dive in and look under the ledge with the Ghost Writer to find four Quills.
3 Quills (16/150)
Return to the edge of the cliff with a Mark fast travel point over a bridge, and look to your right. Under a wooden walkway are three quills to add to your collection.
3 Quills (19/150)
Head across the wooden walkway that the previous three quills were under and enter the cave. You will be in a chamber with large crystals. Behind the crystals are three more Quills to pick up.
3 Quills (22/150)
Walk along the narrow path in the caves to find the Ghost Writer plinth. Near to it are some wooden crates that have another trio of Quills hiding behind them.
4 Quills (26/150)
Head back out of the caves the way you came in and go back to the start of the level. Jump up to the high ledge and go through the cave entrance.
As you enter, there will be a crate with metal balls to your right. Use Yooka’s tongue to pick up the metal state and then slide down the slope, keeping to the left side. The metal state will weigh you down, so the Mr. Blowy enemy can’t push you to the right. You’ll stop at a ledge that has four Quills waiting for you.
4 Quills (30/150)
Fast-travel back to the Mark over the wooden bridge and jump down into the water. You want to swim to the West side of Glitterglaze Glacier, towards the high cliff. (to your left when facing the Mark fast travel point from across the wooden bridge). You want to find a snowman standing alone on some ice.
Behind the snowman, in the water, are some ruins. Under the two arches are a total of four more Quills.
4 Quills (34/150)
Back at the snowman, look over to the nearby shore to spot Kartos the minecart further down. Past him at the very end of the shore is another four Quills to collect.
4 Quills (38/150)
Back over to the snowman once more, and this time we are heading over to the vents blowing upwards.
Ride the air currents about halfway up, and you should see four Quills huddled on a little cliff on the left side.
4 Quills (42/150)
Ride the vents the rest of the way up to this cliffside area and activate the Mark fast travel point near the cave entrance. Just over the little stream are some ice shards. Hidden amongst them are four Quills to pocket.
3 Quills (45/150)
Drop into the stream and swim to the end nearest the cliff. There are 3 Quills tucked away at the end.
4 Quills (49/150)
Swim to the other end of the stream and into the cave entrance at the other end. Inside are four more Quills.
4 Quills (53/150)
Leave the cave and jump out of the stream on the North side, where the igloos are. Run around the back of some more ice shards near that end of the stream to find another quartet of Quills.
4 Quills (57/150)
Fast-travel back to the Mark near the beginning of the level, and this time head to the East side of Glitterglaze Glacier. Hop across the floating ice or swim to the shore and grab the four Quills in front of a large rock. You should see them as you approach.
4 Quills (61/150)
From the last set of Quills you picked up, look to your left to see a cave. In the water under the cave entrance are the next four Quills.
3 Quills (64/150)
Jump up into the cave and head to the back of it to find a trio of Quills behind the icy pillar.
4 Quills (68/150)
Head out of the cave and back to the icy shore. At the back, to the left of the area, is Dr. Puzz with her D.N.Ray. To her left are some crates with four Quills hiding behind them.
3 Quills (71/150)
Continue to the North end of the snowy shore to find a tunnel blocked by ice. Get on top of the tunnel entrance to find three Quills.
4 Quills (75/150)
Turn around and walk back across this area and past Dr. Puzz to find a wooden crate on the edge of the level near a large molten block. Smash the crate to reveal a Bomb Plant, which you need the state from. Turn around again to spot a cluster of molten blocks together. Under one of them are four Quills, so spit some bombs to clear the blocks.
4 Quills (79/150)
Walk to the South end of this area, past where all the snowballs are. There is another quartet of Quills up in the corner of the level.
3 Quills (82/150)
Jump into the water where the snowman is and look for some steps under the water. On one of these natural steps are three Quills to collect.
3 Quills (85/150)
Jump back up onto land and head up to the platforms and walkways above, and roll up the ice ramp to the tower with a chest full of vapor in front of it. Go around the left side of the tower to find an alcove containing three quills above a frozen Ghost Writer.
4 Quills (89/150)
where the snow sculpture of Capitol B is standing. Head up the wooden ramp to the highest platform to find four Quills waiting for you.
3 Quills (92/150)
Now it is time to roll up the giant ice ramp! As you start your ascent, keep an eye out for a ledge on your right that has three Quills ready to be grabbed.
4 Quills (96/150)
Hop up onto this raised area of Glitterglaze Glacier and look behind the rock to your right to find four more Quills.
4 Quills (100/150)
Get back onto the large icy slope and look for a platform on your left with a tree on it. There are four Quills to collect by the tree.
4 Quills (104/150)
Continue along the icy slope until you see a platform sticking out of the cliff ahead of you. Jump across to it to find another four Quills behind another tree.
3 Quills (107/150)
Go up to the top of the icy slope, activate the Mark fast travel point, and enter the Icymetric Palace. In the first room are some invisible platforms you can use after hitting them with Laylee’s Sonar Shot. Ride them around the room to reach a balcony with three Quills on it.
4 Quills (111/150)
Go through the only available door into the next room. You need to roll along the narrow path to pick up the four Quills and then back before the spikes come down on top of you.
4 Quills (115/150)
Use the invisible platform in this room to take you up to another door, and you’ll find the next four Quills on your path without any trouble.
3 Quills (118/150)
Continue through the rooms and defeat Brrreeze Blok, the boss of Glitterglaze Glacier. This will open up other areas of the Icymetric Palace as well as some other parts of Glitterglaze Glacier (a in-game cutscene plays showing these to you, keep them in mind).
Head back out of the boss room and ride the steam current up to the ledge where three Quills are waiting.
4 Quills (122/150)
Fast travel back to the Mark at the entrance of Icymetric Palace and grab the vapor from the chest so Yooka and Laylee can fly. Soar around to the West side of the tower, the side of the icy ramp, and look for a snowy outcrop low down near the water. On it are four Quills to retrieve.
4 Quills (126/150)
Jump down into the water and look for crates chained down to the waterbed near the tower. Some are in front of the now unblocked pipe, which we will go inside shortly, but first pick up the fur Quills amongst the crates.
3 Quills (129/150)
Enter the pipe and swim up to the top of the room full of water, and you should see three Quills on the right side of the room.
3 Quills (132/150)
Swim through the other door in the water-filled room, and you’ll end up in a room split by metal bars. Hit the ship’s steering wheel a few times to lower the bars and gain access to three more Quills.
4 Quills (136/150)
Go through the door behind the last set of Quills and cross the hall to go through a second door, and finally through a third door. You’ll find Rextro and his arcade machine in here, along with four Quills.
3 Quills (139/150)
Head back to the room with the metal bars and ride the steam current to reach another door. Smash the large crate in this room to reveal a Bomb Plant that you can use to blow up the molten blocks. Behind one of them are three Quills to grab.
4 Quills (143/150)
Head through the door at the back corner of the room, where you blew up the molten blocks, to find Tubbz hanging out with four Quills.
3 Quills (146/150)
Return to the entrance room of Icymetric Palace and head through the top doorway to a hallway with a couple of Googly Eye enemies. Go through the door opposite the one you came in through, and through a third door in the room with three ice blocks.
You’ll reach an obstacle course with a Pagie at the end of it. During the obstacle course, you’ll come across 3 Quills on a platform.
4 Quills (150/150)
Continue through the door to the right of the obstacle course and cross the room with steam vents and a red Q.U.I.D.D.S challenge. You’ll reach a room with 3 doors and a purple light in the middle of the room. You have to go through the right doorways to reach the last four Quills.
The order is: Right, Right, Middle, Left.
You’ll know that you’re on the right track as a new purple light gets added each time, ending with five purple lights and our last four Quills.
Congratulations! You now have all 150 quills in Glitterglaze Glacier!
