In the vibrant world of Miraland, Infinity Nikki offers adventurers a wealth of side quests to discover. Among these are the Forced Perspective collections, a series of creative photography challenges that task the player with crafting clever optical illusions. The 'Caged Bird' quest is a prime example, requiring a keen eye and a bit of artistic trickery to capture an image of a bird that isn't truly there.

To begin this imaginative pursuit, one must first travel to the Florawish Lane Warp Spire. From there, the path leads across a bridge to a charming house. On the deck to the right, the quest-giver, Ginona, awaits to set the challenge in motion. The objective is deceptively simple yet requires precision: create a photograph that uses forced perspective to make it appear as if a bird is trapped inside a cage on the table.

How to Complete the Quest

The beauty of this quest is that all the necessary components are already on the deck. There's no need to venture further. The key elements are:

  • A table with an empty cage.

  • Two colorful bird balloons positioned on the opposite side of the deck.

The process involves a few careful steps:

  1. Position Yourself: Stand near Ginona and face the cage.

  2. Enter Photography Mode: Activate the game's camera function.

  3. Hide Nikki: Select the option to hide your character model to ensure she doesn't block the perfect shot.

  4. Frame the Illusion: This is the crucial part. Slowly adjust the camera angle, moving it left, right, up, or down. The goal is to align one of the distant bird balloons perfectly within the frame of the empty cage. The perspective must make the balloon look like it is physically inside the cage bars.

  5. Wait for the Prompt: The game provides a helpful cue. When the camera is positioned correctly, the words "Caged Bird" will appear in text above the cage. This is your signal that the illusion is properly framed and the photo will count for quest completion.

  6. Capture the Moment: Take the picture once the prompt is visible.

  7. Report to Ginona: Speak with Ginona again and select the newly taken photograph from your album when prompted. Presenting this illusory image completes the quest.
