How To Get Bouldy In Hades

Bouldy is a unique NPC interaction in Hades that players can discover and converse with during their runs. Unlike other characters in the game, Bouldy operates differently when it comes to affinity and codex progression. This guide will walk you through the steps needed to find and interact with Bouldy.

Finding Ccfus in Tartarus

The first step to accessing Bouldy is to locate Ccfus while progressing through Tartarus. Ccfus is the key NPC who will eventually lead you to Bouldy. However, Ccfus doesn’t appear in every run, so you may need to restart multiple times.

Restarting Your Run If Necessary

If you don’t encounter Ccfus during your Tartarus run, you have two options to restart:

Suicide to end your current run

Avoid fighting the Furies

After using either method, restart your run in Tartarus and continue searching for Ccfus.

Talking to Ccfus

Once you find Ccfus, keep talking to him repeatedly. Ccfus will eventually initiate a conversation with Bouldy—a boulder located nearby. Continue interacting with Ccfus until he engages in dialogue with Bouldy.

Interacting with Bouldy

After Ccfus begins talking to Bouldy, you’ll now be able to converse with Bouldy directly. At this point, you can engage in dialogue with this unique NPC character.

Understanding Bouldy’s Mechanics

It’s important to note that Bouldy operates under different rules compared to other NPCs in Hades:

You can converse with Bouldy

You cannot progress affinity with Bouldy

Bouldy does not appear in your codex

You can give Bouldy nectar as a gift

Despite these limitations, the interaction remains a memorable part of the Hades experience.

Giving Nectar to Bouldy

One of the actions you can perform with Bouldy is to offer it a nectar. Simply interact with Bouldy and select the option to give nectar. While this won’t increase your affinity meter, it’s a nice way to interact with this special character.

Summary

Getting Bouldy in Hades involves finding Ccfus in Tartarus, speaking with him repeatedly until he talks to Bouldy, and then interacting with Bouldy directly. Remember that Bouldy is a conversation-only NPC with no affinity progression or codex entry, but you can still give it nectar. This unique encounter adds a fun layer of discovery to your Hades playthrough!
