**Anuri Temple** is a smaller location within Duri Forest, featured in *Phoenotopia* and its remake *Phoenotopia: Awakening*. It is a very old temple situated in the middle of the forest, which Gail visits in order to retrieve the fallen meteorite that had landed there earlier. She obtains the Slingshot from Alex just outside the temple's entrance, and faces off against the first boss in the depths of the temple. It once housed the ancient civilization of the Anuri.

## Description

Anuri Temple features some obstacles that require the use of the Slingshot, and focuses more on navigating through a mazelike environment, with several sections in which you need to search for and collect Anuri Pearlstones, which must be brought to several frog statues in order to open some ancient doors to progress. In addition, Anuri Temple also has some secret areas, including a tomb area sealed off by stone blocks that must be cleared with Bombs, as well as another room with the Century Toad, who is now an optional secret boss.

The temple is adorned with statues of toads with headdresses and decaying skeletons. Toad imagery is extremely prominent, up to the point that all the doors and pedestals resemble toads. This is likely due to the fact that Anuri are toadlike creatures. Many walls are fractured and decayed, and the temple is overgrown with foliage such as roots, vines, Doki Herbs and even a fair number fully grown berry fruit trees. Many Toads, along with several Gummies Scabers and Bats fill the temple.

Beneath the main level of the temple is the tomb section of the temple. This area is dark and houses many skeletons and candles. Two Slargummies can be found in the depths here.

Past the boss area lies a fountain full of toad statues. If a pearlstone is placed in each one with an open mouth, the area including the room to the secret boss is revealed.

## Events

Gail arrives here to retrieve the kids for dinner, but enters on the request of Alex in order to find the shooting star that landed inside the temple. Gail fights her way through a myriad of puzzles and frogs before facing off with a slargummy. Once it is defeated, Gail finds the Mysterious Golem Head in a peaceful fountain area of the temple. Gail returns to the entrance to find that the kids have built a bridge across the gap to the temple.

## Trivia

* The name is of the temple is most likely derived from *Anura*, the scientific name for the animal order of frogs.
* If the player uses the Sonic Spear to get on top of the temple and jumps to the right, Gail will fall through the ceiling of the boss room.
* If the player exits the temple before finding the Golem Head, they will find Alex, Amanda, and Seth in the process of cutting up a tree in order to build a bridge.
* This area is the focus of the demo V0.06 Beta released in 2016. Although similar to the final product, the demo release features noticeable changes, including the Century Toad as the initial boss.
