Majin is a neat adventure game for the ps3 and xbox360 which is heavily puzzle based. You go on an adventure as a nameless thief and a big monster companion called a Majin. The game is pretty fun overall for normal game play, but what most interested me was the game's OoB mechanics.
Basically whenever you are OoB you are always on solid ground and if you jump, ground is placed underneath you. If you go in bounds you just fall in, and for some reason in some parts in OoB there are holes. Abusing this you can alter your height and slowly load maps and go anywhere you want in the world.
Route
Natural route through the castle, but when you get out and to the catapult section there is a small skip you can do that saves like 10 seconds.
After the catapult section you clip OoB and go to the scarecrow doll.
You can then hit the switch by going OoB in the same spot.
The rest of the dungeon is natural route.
In area 2 you do natural route until the catapult and then go OoB to hit the 2nd scarecrow doll. This skips half of the catapult puzzle and then the whole water puzzle. Rest of the area/dungeon is natural route.
After you get to area 3, you clip oob and get the first scarecrow doll.
Then, the 2nd scarecrow I found a skip to get to it early.
The third scarecrow you need to get normally. You progress through the warship as usual and then continue to the 4th area.
Here you get the 2nd scarecrow doll first(the one you use a bomb to get to), and then go to the room across(it has the catapult in it) and get the 3rd scarecrow doll. Now you use the catapult to clip OoB and get the 1st scarecrow doll skipping the small puzzle.
Now you go back to the catapult and clip into OoB again and then walk all the way to the 4th scarecrow doll and get it.
Now the dungeon is open. Go inside and have you majin eat the orb and gain the ice ability.
Now that we finally have the Ice Ability we can complete the game. Backtrack to the desert area and clip OoB. Once OoB you run along the maps until you get to the Final Dungeon and then you walk to the 2nd last room.
From here you complete the room and move on to the boss room. Beat the boss and it's gg.
The biggest issue with OoB in this game is that if you leave your majin behind you can not use or acquire new abilities and you can not open doors. If we ever find a way to warp your Majin to you, it would change the route quite a bit. Overall I think the run will be somewhere in the 3-4 hour range since you cannot skip cutscenes. I think it will be really enjoyable to watch with all the OoB, and since you do have to watch the majority of the games cutscenes, should be enjoyable even for those who do not know the game.
Extra stuff I found that may be useful:
