In Mortal Kombat 1, Invasion Klues introduce an extra layer of challenge to the single-player mode, offering the opportunity to unlock hidden chests by solving them. These Klues make their appearance above certain nodes within various Mesas. At first glance, their meaning might seem cryptic, especially when you encounter the first one after completing Johnny Cage’s mansion tutorial, which reads “ESDORYT TEH DWLOR” and appears as gibberish. However, if you rearrange the letters, it spells out “DESTROY THE WORLD,” hinting at the use of Cyrax’s powerful Kameo Finisher move. I’ve done the legwork to solve these Klues for you, so here’s how to make the most of the Mortal Kombat 1 Klues to access those coveted secrets.
Understanding Mortal Kombat 1 Invasion Klues
As you advance through each Mesa in Invasion mode, you’ll come across nodes adorned with Mortal Kombat 1 Klues, as shown in the screenshot above. These Klues can take various forms, such as anagrams, phrases, or hints that provide instructions for the upcoming fight. By following these clues and successfully executing specific actions or performing a character’s Mortal Kombat 1 Fatality move, you’ll open the path to a concealed chest, where you can acquire a range of Mortal Kombat 1 unlockables to enhance your collection and gaming experience.
