    Questions and Answers

    Hi, there, I can't find one of the ten totems. I think it might be the second one. Can you help?

    Do you have the GPS locations of them all?

    If I were to detail the location of each totem it would be quite difficult just reading. ON THIS SITE you'll find information with videos showing the locations of each totem in the game. I hope this is able to help you finding your last totem.
