GAME INTRO: A mysterious man "Toranoou" is standing on a cliff, watching Edo castle. The camera zooms past a little village, and the rain is pouring down. The man has arrived at Edo castles backyard. Here in a pond lies a big strange stone, Toranoou draws his sword and tries to slash the stone. It didn't work and the sword gets stuck in the stone, he then tries to remove it but is stopped by electrical sparks flying out from the sword. And at the same time it turns to stone.. Right after that Yea and her ninja team arrives to stop this man from harming the stone. (I think) Toranoou just shakes them of and escapes, then Yea looks at the stone and looks a little worried. You start the game inside Goemon's house, his father is talking to him. After he is finished he leaves the house and your free to explore the town. But first why not talk a bit to your mother Okami. (well that is her name if I translated it right) If you talk to her sometimes she gives you 10Ryo. Now head out too see the town. (In this walkthrough the money will be called Ryo, just like in the N64 game) There is no need to rush, so take your time, the first thing you should is to get a weapon. Try finding a man that is carrying wood, he is located in the section of town where there are three houses and a little river. Now you just got your first weapon. Now go look for the snapping plants, they are located not to far away from here. You don't have to do this but it could be good to get some level coins and Ryo. After that you should go around the village a bit, you will come across a little white tiger kitten. He is so hungry he can't even move. Go talk to him and you a menu will appear. You get three options pick the middle one, I bet he asks if the kitten if he is hungry or something like that. And head to the fish store. It's almost in the same area as the kitten. Now buy the first fish in the list, I think it costs 1 or 10 Ryo. Then go back and give the kitten the fish, now you have just got your very own tiger kitten. Joy. ^^ The only problem is your parents don't know, so head home and tell them! Back home Goemon gives the cat the name Kotora, Goemon and his mother has a nice little talk. And she tells Goemon to find his father. You may have noticed that there was a part of this town leading to another that was blocked before. Well you can go to that town now. Find your father and talk to him, and he gives you the traditional red Goemon clothes, then you'll automatically return home. Once you are finished you must go and visit the old man, Monoshiri. He lives on top of the mountain in Goemon's village. Find his house and talk to him. And after that's done, you can exit the village and fight some real monsters. You will find the exit in the second sector of the town, and the exit is the East gate. Now you are out on the fields, and there are monsters everywhere. The first monster you'll encounter is a little furry thing in red priest robes. (that why I'll give them the name red gnome priest) And beware of the killer/zombie water melons. They are nasty! Well now when you are out on the field turn right and speak to a 3 eyed creature, he is green and looks like a bell. He will tell you something, perhaps he says you need a special item to get past the strong winds that blows you back. Now find the village it's located a bit from the huge cave that you can find out in the field, but you do not need to enter it now. Well if you found the village your on the right track, now as you can see there are no people in this village. That's because little black gnomes priest(?) you have to kill them all. In this town you can find a cave inside is the village elder, agree to help them with exterminating these gnomes. They are inside houses, back house so keep looking! If you found them all the village elder will give you a special item. Now with this item you can get past the wind that blew you away before, so guess where you are heading? Yeah, that's right back to the green bell monster. After you get past him you will see a three eyed, red stone monster. Well this is the save point, he probably tells you that you can save your progress at stones like this. After that you'll have to march on and you will find a wind gave. Just get by the cave and get out on the other side, here you will see a big orange cat "Ooyama Neko". (he scared the hell out of me!) (Ooyama Neko is Mountain Cat in English if I am correct.) Just ignore it because no one knows what to do with them. After a little more walking, and you'll end up by a cave what has the form of a gigantic tiger. But before you can enter you have to defeat two foxes. I will call them Wind Foxes, well go and take care of them. Well then you just have to get by this cave, I will not write about the cave because it is so simple to get through. On the other side of the cave you will meet the first boss in the game. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BOSS 1: Doguzin Doguzin looks almost like Shakkumon. (Digimon) He says something about someone named Byakko, it seems like he says that he won't let Goemon get to Byakko. Well he is fairly easy to defeat, just avoid his bullet attack which he spits from his mouth. And some times a ray of light appears on the field. They can take pretty much of your HP, so stay out of their way! After he is defeated you will get the Rajin Sword. (That's what I will call it) The most powerful weapon you can have at this point in the game. So don't forget to equip it! After Doguzin is defeated continue on and meet The Divine White Tiger. His name seems to be Byakko (not sure of spelling) So that's what he will be called from now on. Even Doguzin calls the divine white tiger, Byakko. that name. Well he will tell you a lot of stuff. It seems he offends Kotora so he leaves, and Byakko continues to talk. After leaving Byakko you will appear in the same area as the green bell monster, and you find Kotora walking away. Then Goemon comforts him and then he joins you again. (yes! :D) Now head back home, and talk to your parents. After a nice talk with your parents go visit Monoshiri. He is outside his house, he has a lightbulb on his door. As usual I have no idea about what they are talking about. Well when you are finished you should head to the West gate. The gate is located in the other section of the town just as the East gate is, now talk to one of the guards so you can get out of town. Now you have arrived at another fine landscape, just take it easy it's full of monsters here. Now you must enter a cave. You'll find it on the left side of the field, I missed it the first time but keep looking you will find it. On the other side of this cave you will see something that made me think of Stonehenge. First of you will have do defeat all Stone Samurais. After that you will see a little cutsceen, where Goemon will notice that the stones have the same mark as his Rajin Sword. Short after that, Yea and here ninja squad arrives and grabs Goemon. They throw him in prison and take his sword. (oh, no!) When you wake up you are inside the a cell. And you are not alone... Here you will meet the strange character who will be known as Sheep Thief. And he has two monkey companions.... Exciting... Yes.... Now use the lock on button and make Kotora take out the guard, and bring you the keys. Now you are a free man! But wait Sheep Thief also wants to get out... Be nice and let him out, he then escapes and he doesn't even say thanks. Well now it's your turn to scram, but getting your sword back would be nice. Use the stairs to the left and look for you sword, you got it? Time to break out of jail! The next section just screams Metal Gear Solid. You'll know what I mean when you get there. Now avoid the guards and make a clean escape. After you are finished you bump into Sheep Thief and the Monkeys. ^^ Here is a puzzle that includes a stone and a piece of wood, know stand on it so Sheep Thief can escape and wait for them to help you... ... Or so you thought! Once again they leave you hanging. But who needs them?! Now lock on to the stone. Kotora will stand there and you can make your escape, if you are fast enough. After that you will end up inside a house, exit the house. Home free! Then there is a cutsceen, it seems this was Yea's house and she sees you escape. Bad very, bad. But wait, what is this? She talks to you and then she look's at Kotora and starts thinking, then she looks at Goemon and thinks some more. She says something that includes the name Byakko... Seems there is something strange about Kotora, well she gives you her sword. [Yea's Sword] and then she leaves you. Now move up the path to the North and you'll end up in a village. It will be called Boat town, well find a man in bear coat. He take's you to an snow town, now speak to every human you can find even the man inside the well. Go find a man in the snow town you can save there, and heal your HP. Continue inside a cave and you'll appear in another section, on the left you find a little town. You don't have to visit it... Now go to the Ice Cave! But hey what's this? You will find a boy lying on the ground, it looks like he is hurt, better help him. You will then help him to the little village that you could ignore earlier. The only thing I know is that he tells you his name, Hakuran. And then he asks Goemon what his name is. After that he falls asleep. Now go back to where you found Hakuran, this is the path you must take to find the Ice Cave. Don't forget to save because this dungeon is a killer! I wont explain in detail but you have to find Pink and Green droplets. They will raise the water level so you can reach new floors even higher up. You most do this in four different sectors, after that you must return to the hotspring room with the monkeys and a man. Know a path opens up so enter it, but right after you have set your foot there a door starts to suck in Kotora. Once Kotora has vanished a girl priestess named Kira shows herself. She tells Goemon something, and shortly after Hakuran arrives, Kira and Hakuran will get sucked into the vortex and disappears. Now you are left all alone, but do not fear (or do) now you will have to meet a boss. Head right from where your are standing and into a room with three white gnome priest, talk to them and continue to go past the room. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Boss 2: Stone Face Not his real name, I do not even know if he has a real name. Just try to avoid his eye laser, and his other attacks. There are some switches/buttons you have to push, I think there is four or five of them. When they have all been pushed you can attack him. Now hurry over to him and hit him in the face. But watch out if you fall down below him, he activates some curse or something and it will eat away your HP and you will feel the terrible effect of slow. So if this happens try and escape before he can use this attack. And just do that over and over until he finally falls. Now when Stone Face is defeated, you will see Kira and Hakuran. And Kotara is back by your side! You can talk to both Kira and Hakuran if you want. It seems like she is a pretty nice girl after all. ^^ Now enter the door behind them and you will come to a big place with a huge lake, just dive in. In the bottom of the lake you will have to find a dragons eye, might not be what you think it is... A cutsceen appears and the dragon starts to speak with Goemon. After he has finished talking to Goemon you will be back on land. Now Hakuran is standing here he gives you a magical stone. It contains a powerful ice magic, I will call it Ice Storm. Then they talk and Goemon will be teleported to the entrance of the Ice Cave, now go and save at the save statue. You will find Kira standing here watching the stone, talk to her and she gives you Healing magic!! Yes! Both you and I know that this will be needed. Equip it to one of the quick item menus. If you talk to her again you will get the weapons she has on here arms. They are the strongest weapons you can have at this point at the game, the only downside is that your range is not as good as it is when you have a sword. But it's worth it. Now use the teleport stone it's located next to a green three eyed stone. The same statue I called bell monster before. Now use the teleport stone and you'll end up at Edo Castle, at the exact same place at the mysterious stone. The sword is still stuck inside this stone, but it seems to be nothing more than an ordinary teleport stone... You will encounter Susake here, at first it seems like he is going to attack you. But then he asks if he is Goemon and after that he says something about Monoshiri then he leaves. Now you must go past a tunnel, it's not to hard to find because Susake is waiting at the beginning of the tunnel. Follow him and he will take you to Monoshiri, you'll end up at something that looks like an underground lab. You will meet Monoshiri here and you show him the Rajin sword. He will take it and you won't get it back. Time to go home to your parents, and tell them how you are doing. And after that it's on to the next adventure! But first you should visit Byakko, he will give you a magic spell. The Tornado spin, it's one of the best spells in the game. Now exit the village by using the east exit, remember the cave on this field? The cave I told you that you didn't have to enter. Well now the time has finally come to enter it. As soon as you see a house to the right you should go to it, inside you will find a little old lady. Talk to her and she will give you two bananas. Now jump on the ledges that are inside the house, you will see a wooden bridge. Cross it. Then you will see a stump, now lay a banana her and a monkey will come and snatch it. Follow the monkey! You will end up at a strange place with tree huge monkey doors. And another stump lay another banana there and another monkey will take it, you should follow this monkey to. You should arrive at a place with a huge tree and you will see a gigantic Monkey. The Divine Monkey. He talks to you and then he gives you some magic, I have no idea what this does but it seems useless. Now walk behind the tree and see some monkeys standing on each other, and they will form a... ... Monkey bridge. Walk over it and you will come to a new town. Here you will bump into Ebisumaru or rather he bumps into you. It seems he owns a restaurant some Ryo, now you will have to pay his bill and it's over 4000 Ryo! Don't have that kind of Ryo? Then just walk a little bit outside of town and you will find some headless monsters they give you lots of Ryo and lots of level coins. It's a perfect place for levelling up and to get a hold of some Ryo. And after you have been so kind to help Ebisumaru it's time go, you must look for a cave in the hills, it's not that hard to find. You will end up in a section where you will see some new monsters, the red pigs. The first thing you should do is to find a little lake and activate a "switch". Now go to the snake statue that is holding it's tail in the same height as it's head. Jump up on the tail and push the head, and Goemon will place a blue crystal in it's eye. Time to go to the huge snake statue, you can't miss it... Just stand on the floor and press the square button and a ray of light appears. Did you see that turtle cave before? The one you couldn't enter? Well you can enter it now. I welcome you to Turtle Rock (^_^) cave. In this cave you have to find switches that has pictures on them. They are not so hard to find. I won't go into detail about it. Perhaps later. Well if you done correct you will meet a huge bull and he gives you bull magic. It's useless if you ask me. Enter the door behind the bull and you will see some huge jumping chess things. Explore this section. You eventually end up in a room with one huge black chess horse. There are 8 doors in this room and you will have to enter them in order to move the chess thing. B.S = Black Square W.S = White Square G = Goemon, H = Horse, C = Crown 1 2 ------------------------- I B.S I W.S I B.S I W.S I 8- ------------------------- - 3 I W.S I B.S I W.S I B.S I ------------------------- I B.S I C I H I W.S I 7- ------------------------- - 4 I W.S I G I W.S I B.S I ------------------------- 6 5 Try to stand so you can see the room from the point of view in my drawing. First of all enter door 8, the door will close behind you and you will find a teleporter. After entering the teleporter you will en up back in the room and the chess thing has changed it position. Next place Goemon so he looks at the crown thing in the room again. Use door nr 3, door will close, use teleporter go back into the main room. Stand in from of the crown just as my drawing, just remember the horse will move and not always stand in the place that is shown in my drawing. (But if you stand in front of the crown just as my drawing show is the easiest way to do this.) And then use door 6 and the horse will land on the crown and a path in the floor will open. Guess where you are heading. Soon after that it time for a new funny little game. The Dice game! (You are gonna hate dices after this!) Well it's not too hard, you must jump on different dices. But if you jump on the wrong number you will loose life and begin from the beginning. Just make sure that you always get 7. Example if the first dice has number 2 then you must jump to nr 5, and after 5 you must jump to another 2. Do you get it? If not, I hope you will have fun. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Boss 3: The Divine Turtle Gembo Gembo is a huge turtle, I think he is a divine animal just like Byakko the divine white tiger. His head is his weak point, but it wont be easy to hit it. Because he hides his head in his shell, and a red force field comes around him so you can't get close. Then he uses a bad breath attack, and ghost appear around the field. Destroy them and the force field around Gembo disappears and his head emerges again. Hit it!! Repeat until he is defeated. After he is defeated he talks to you, it seems like it was a test or something. Well after he is done talking to you will appear outside the cave. Now go back to the little place where you meet Ebisumaru for the first time in the game. Now follow the path that leads to a village, on the way to the village you will encounter headless monsters and blue flames monsters. Now you are in the village (I will call it Purasma Village). Find a restaurant and you'll find Ebisumaru, talk to him and you will trade items then he leaves. Now find a house that looks a little strange, enter it and you will see a lot of pink color. If it is right then you have arrived at Plasma's house! Do you remember Plasma from the N64 game? Well he is back! ^^ Talk to him and he tells you your fortune. Now exit the town from the exit near Plasma's house, and you'll end up in a forest. You will eventually meet a girl with blue hair, she will leave. Follow her! You will see her a bit in front of you, but then she leaves again. Continue to follow her... You will see her for a third time, and she leaves again. She is playing hard to get, I like that! ^^ If you followed her you will end up in a ghost town, enter the only house in the town. You will see a old man, talk toy him and you will see a cutsceen. The girl with blue hair enters, it seems her name is Kunima .?. I can't translate the last sign in her name. =/ After that it will be night and now you have to find her again. You will see her swinging her sword just like she did in the forest, after a short while she leaves. Damm, she does noting but leaves! Try to find her again. zzzzz... ZZzz Now you will see a cutsceen with Kunima and her father. But wait that's the old guy from before! It seems she lied about her name, her real name is Okuni. (if my translation is correct) They will let you stay the night. And when morning comes you'll leave their home, and they'll see you of. After you leave the ghost temple you must find ninja town, just go back a bit from where Okumi ran away from earlier. Do you see the big castle/dojo thing in this town? Well your heading there, but it seems like the ninjas at the frontgate wont let you in. Time to find another way in, just jump on the ledge of the bridge. Make sure you climb the lowest ledge or the ninjas will see you, now enter the cave on the yard. Now you are inside the ninja castle/dojo, and it's a maze! You will eventually face a crab like monster, and if you go the wrong way you will have to face it a lot of times. So walk in this order and you don't have to face him. After the save statue go right inside the room, then take the following way: Up, Up, Right. Now in the second section you must walk: Left, Up, right, Up. And Voila! You don't have to face the crab monster. From one maze to another. Now you must try and find the right teleporter in this room, can be tricky. But stay sharp and you should manage. You will enter a room and you will see Yea and her ninja squad fighting with Toranoou. He looks at Goemon and says something, Yea tells him to run away. And then they try to hold Toranoou, but he is too strong. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Boss 4: Toranoou Well not exactly a boss fight, but you have to run away from him. This can be a pain in the ass. Right now I see this as the worst part of the game, I got really frustrated. You'll end up on the roof and on the roof you will see two fish head statue like things. Go to the right one and you will get a sword. You might remember this sword from earlier in the game, it's the holy sword [Hoken] from the picture in the ghost temple. (It seems to be a popular sword to have in animes and games. If you know why, email me!) Now go the left fish head, and Toranoou will appear. He just speaks to Goemon and then he leave. (strange fellow) Now enter the left fish head, and you will reappear inside the castle/dojo. Hoken reacts to something, and you will be able to enter that big door inside the castle. It will lead to and underground tunnel, and the sword will lead the way so follow it. You'll end up meeting another divine animal, this time its Inobunotakeru. (I'll call him Inobu for short) Inobu is a warthog/pig. Well as all other divine animal Inobu talks to you. And suddenly Yea and Okumi walks in. And Okumi talks incredible much, and fast! o_o' Then that damm Sheep Thief comes and steals Hoken! *grr* Well Inobu gives you some kind of magic and then you will be outside of the castle/dojo. Yea and Okumi will be here too so you can speak to them if you want to. Now it's time to use the other exit of this town, you will end up in another fishing town. Talk to the man by the boat and then return to Ninja Town. Now find the ghost house and take care of all the ghost inside. And now you must go back to the fishing town. Talk to the man by the boat again and the man with bear coat will appear. He will take you to a new island. And I will call that island for just New Island. Explore the New Island town, then exit the town. Now is a pretty good time to level up a bit. Follow the road and you will end up in a town that has no water, all the wells are dry. Now go to the well at the end of town, then take a right turn and jump up the waterfall. Now you arrive in a new area with a waterfall, you must find a way to get in there. Inside you find a savestatue, believe me SAVE! Now go down the waterslide and you'll end up in a room where Sheep Thief is talking to a water imp named Kowataru. Kowataru throws the holy sword Hoken in the water, Goemon dives after it and in the water Kowatarus pet awaits you. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Boss 5: Kowatarus Pet Can be a tricky boss, I personally hate him!! >=( But he is actually one of the easiest bosses to defeat, when you get the hang of it. Well swim down to the bottom and release the sleep berries. Make sure you grab one and, swim at the big fish. Let him swallow you, while you have the berries. After he spits you out he will fall asleep and float to the surface, now you can hit him until he dies, he won't wakeup. (well he didn't wake up for me at least) Now you will see a cutsceen with Kowataru and he has the blue jar you saw earlier. It's seems like a spirit was trapped inside, and Kowataru frees it. The spirit talks to Goemon, and it seems like Kowataru is sorry for what he did. I hear they mention something about Monoshiri, but I don't know what... Well the spirit gives you some kind of magic. Now return to the New Island town, go to where the boat man was. You will meet Sheep Thief here, and the has a submarine. Talk toy him and he will take you to the lava island. As soon as you set foot here you will be attacked by monsters, so be careful. You will come by a village, by walking trough the little tunnel. Just go past this village its full of monsters. Go past the village and you'll end up by a cave. Now walk this path until you come to the top of the volcano. Continue to walk until you come to a nice little village. It is called Tuya-Maso (something) the best thing in this village is that you can meet Plasma here. Head out of the village and you will see two strange characters standing by an hole that spits fire. Talk to them, their names are Dasodara and Kasokara. When you have talked to them the fire stops, and you can enter the cave. This is the fire dungeon. Well just clear this dungeon it's not that hard, so I don't think you'll need any help. As soon as you can save in this dungeon do that! After you have walked deeper into the dungeon you will come to another save statue. If I was you I would save... Now go on and walk the little path, you'll end up in the center of this volcano. And here you'll have to face Kuziyakura. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Boss 6: Kuziyakura Kuziyakara is the pink character from the anime intro, the one holding the fans. The best time to hit him is when he does his fireball thing. Jump up and hit the fireball and it will stun him. Leaving you free to hit him for a while. Do this and he should go down easy, but be careful he can be tricky. After he is defeated you will see a cutsceen and after that you'll be outside the volcano again. Now jump back in and you'll meet a boy down here. His name is Oroch, and he talks about the little tree that has started to grown in the volcano. BTW what a nice place to plant a tree. Now head back to Sheep Thief, and don't forget to save after beating Kuziyakara. You will meet Ebisumaru and Yea at the same place where Sheep Thief is. It's seems like they want to go with you, nice to have friend isn't it. Well before you go save again, just in case... Now talk to Sheep and he will take you to another island, now enter the platform on this island. Well it's actually an elevator, now after the elevator stops walk the path into a room. Go to the stone in the middle and the spirits will be released. Oroch, the boy from the volcano will come here. Now watch the cutsceen and after that enter the spaceship that Susake brings to you. Then continue to watch the cutsceens. ^^ You will now be in a space fortress, go to the spaceship you came here with, and jump on it to get to even higher up. If you are on the right place then you'll see a save statue. At one part of this dungeon you will come to two rooms with blocks. In one rooms push the block with four signs on and in the second room push the one with one sign on. You will then activate something, now continue onwards. If you are successful with the events that happens after this you will finally see a save statue. Just around the corner is the best place in the game to gain some levels, and when you are done move on. If you have completed that part of the dungeon you will end up in a village. You will see Susake lying there on the ground, he seems hurt. Well he talks to you and so on... After it seems like he is trapped inside a force field, free him! If you watch up on the cliffs by the town you will see four doors all having a ray of light coming out of them. Well destroy that light and free him. After he is free, you should save! Then go though the door that opened up and you'll see a cutsceen. And just continue to walk that path, and you'll end up on a platform with monsters. Defeat all monsters and a house will appear and take you to a place. Once again you will see a save statue, and yes you guessed it SAVE! Now go up the huge stairway and meet your destiny young one. Toranoou will be in here. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Boss 7: Toranoou First of all take out the things flying around him, because he can do a dangerous attack with their help. Well after they are out he will start using his morningstar. The best weapon to use again Toranoou is Hoken. It will eat away his HP. You may have weapons that are more powerful than the Hoken, but trust me Hoken is the best to use. Continue to hit him and he'll go down. Now watch the cutsceen and be amazed. Now you will meet with Kagetora, he will give you slowdown magic and the Super Pipe! You'll be back outside and Sheep will be here, he also gives you magic. Now go down the stairs, or more like slide down and save. Now enter the house and push the button with the arrow on it. You will end up in a new place, be ready for some real wall jumping. In time you'll end up in a room and in this room you will meet Sisinoou. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Final Boss: Sisinoou Ok, this is it! This is the true leader of the "aliens", and this is the last fight, he is the hardest boss in the game IMO. But he can also become the easiest boss in the game, by using the Slowdown magic you get from Kagetora. Us it and he will slowdown and be almost harmless. So just hit him with the super pipe and see his HP disapear. By doing this you can take out half his life in no time. You will not be affected by this magic. But of course if you want to do it the hard way that's up to you. Now watch the cutsceens. Well you should be proud you have completed the game. Watch the end credits, and don't turn the game of! You will later get the chance to save, so do that. Now you can explore the world again, the only strange thing about this is that you don't have the Super Pipe or the slow-motion magic you get from Kagetora. I will try and find out if there is any secret behind this. Thank you for using my Walkthrough. I hope you really liked it, It was my very first one. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- O-----------------------------------O | V.

Secrets and Other Stuff O-----------------------------------O At the moment there are no secret that I have found. Well I have found one strange thing, you know the Divine Monkey tree? Well under the tree, there is a Ooyama Neko, that follows you. Not a secret but it's a little scary. ^^ Something I discovered today (6/3 2004) is that some weapons and magic can't be used unless you upgrade some of your skills. Let's say you want to equip Yea's sword. But it won't be equipped, you will see a red number by strength. You must gain X-levels in order to get rid of that red number, then you can equip Yea's sword. And the same goes for magic. I hope this will help you, it helped me once I figured it out. I've ripped the opening from the game, if you wish to see it go to YouTube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dtDdBp8u5wE Or you can gp to http://goemon.sitesled.com. I gave the webmaster there a better version of the opening. Get it there. O-----------------------------------O | VIII.
