In order to help your friend Emily in Treasures of Nadia get all the ingredients for her love potion, you’ll need to get a plant called Red Ginseng. But it just so happens that it is located on top of a high ledge. To get it without breaking all of your bones, you’ll need a grappling hook.
How to Make Grappling Hook in Treasure of Nadia
Talk to Emily in the library and offer to help her with the love potion. She’ll lead you to a forest to look for the Red Ginseng. Your character will automatically attempt to get it, but he’ll only end up getting hurt.

So, you’ll need to find a different way to get the love potion ingredient – and it will require a grappling hook.
To make a Grappling Hook, you’ll need two items – a Heavy Cord and a Metal Hook.

For the easiest one of the two, you can buy the Metal Hook at Squallmart. It’s fairly cheap, costing only $90.

For the Heavy Cord, go to the Doctor’s Office. Grab the Heavy Cord from the floor on the leftmost side of the office, next to the Basic Container.
Then, just go to your inventory and combine both two items by clicking on them, turning them into a Grappling Hook!
What is the Grappling Hook For?

Unfortunately, unlike in many other games, the Grappling Hook’s uses are very limited in Treasure of Nadia. You need it to get the Red Ginseng mentioned above and one other item called the Gaffer Tape.
Later, you’ll also use it to make another item – the Pickaxe. For that, combine Wrench Grip + Gaffer Tape + Grappling Hook + Pipe Wrench.
Nonetheless, that’s all you need to know to make the Grappling Hook in Treasures of Nadia! Use it to help Emily and continue the game’s story.
