I have cells to unlock a level or two, but cannot work out how to do it. Also, I don't see anything about rain, just ghost, flux, collective, kinetic, and tranquil. I've tried to get kinetic to work, but nothing happens when I hit the "enter dimension" or "popup menu enter" buttons, even if I stay on the screen where these buttons are and walk around.
