About the Game: Majin and the Forsaken Kingdom is a great little game that came out with absolutely no publicity or fanfare at all, and went virtually unnoticed. The combat and flow of the game is reminiscent of ICO, while the puzzling and boss battles harken back to Zelda. While not a perfect game by any means, the animal voices alone are enough to drive anyone batty, it is lots of fun and very rewarding. You travel through the game working as a team solving puzzles and battling foes with a big lovable doofus called Majin. I'm playing it on the ps3 but it was also available and a little better known on the 360. C. About the walkthrough: While I'll try my best to not give away any of the story, nor tell why certain things happen, sometimes there may be small spoilers. But I highly suggest trying each area on your own first before looking here, as the puzzling will make you think but is not ridiculously hard. As I have never seen a guide for the game, I will assign my own names to foes, and have no idea of their HP values etc. I'll try to keep it simple but can't help throwing in a bit humor, as gaming should be fun, right? I should also mention that like any game with puzzles and such there are always more than one way to get things done, these are just the methods that worked for me.

Controls: Majin commands, while holding R2 X - wait, XX - Wait and crouch Triangle - follow Circle - feed Square - action “Depending on particular situation” L1 - roar, stuns enemies Magic abilities, while holding R1 X - purification Triangle - lightning Circle - fire Square - wind Tepeu “Main character” Left stick, control character, right stick, control camera X - jump/confirm Triangle - dodge roll, quick roll while sneaking Square - attack Circle - critical/combo attack X and square together, lunge attack Hold L1 and square - throw stone R2 - sneak mode Select - menu Start - map G. Tips: Except for the for the first beginning area, all areas can be revisited if you've missed something or wish to level up your characters more. As a matter of fact as you gain new abilities new portions of many areas will become available. When you look at the map for an area it also shows you how many treasures there are in the area and how many you have found. ‘Nice!’ You should know that the first are always Majin's fruit if there are any in that area, and the last one is always the memory shard for that area. Memory shards only appear at night and look like a yellow floating light. Finding enough of these will award you with new armor as you go through the game. From this point on I will refer to them as MS and include a number as to how many you should have found by that point of the game. There is no shame in going back to fight enemies in previous areas to build up your team if you're finding battles a little too tough. In battles try not to get too far from Majin so that you can be there to perform combo finishes and increase your friendship with Majin, which of course will make you stronger as a team. The X and square thrust attack is very effective at dealing with those slightly larger enemies, and will usually send them flying. Learning to use the triangle dodge roll as well to avoid damage will save your butt in a lot of battles. Don't rush into areas. Often if you look around you will see platforms or high walkways that will allow you to get to tricks, traps or something to give you an advantage. When you level up the only thing that changes are your strength and stamina or HP. The equipment you wear will also add buffs, but not the way you’d normally expect. For example swordmanship raises your defence against sword and shield type enemies while acrobatics raises defence against archer type enemies. You equip gear at the save pillar and then you can go to select and click abilities to see what each does. I’ll be honest, I didn’t notice much difference with a lot of them. H. Walkthrough. 1. Arkela Castle: Treasures: 4 blue chests. Note, this is a one time only area and there are 4 blue chests to be collected if you are a completionist. After the opening scenes you follow the linear path through the hole in the wall, ‘Use L2 to crouch’ and into next area, watch scene then use L2 to sneak around the right side of the pedestal and behind the first enemy stopping at the stone and waiting until the second enemy turns away from you. Sneak around the left side of that pedestal and through the door. All you can do here is get hit once to trigger the next cutscene. Once you have control again, go to back of room and jump onto box's and higher level to reach the walkway on top of the pillars. Make sure to open the obvious blue chest as you cross the walkways and through large hole in wall. Crouch to exit cell through small hole in wall, then again for hole in bars. Go to next area, climb ladder, crouch through hole to reach the Royal Chambers. Go down broken stairs and jump down to little ledge then again to floor. Before climbing the ladder go around to far side to collect the blue chest. Up the ladder we go. Watch the scene then we need to go get Majin his first fruit. Head through hole in wall and through next 2 areas making sure to grab the blue chest in the second. Head into third area, watch the scene, then use L2 crouch to sneak through the waterway to the other side. Crouch through hole in wall. Grab fruit with circle then shake the left stick side to side to break it free. Then take it through hole in wall and back to Majin. Fortunately he can jump holding onto the fruit. After the scene with Majin head out and use R2 and square to target one of the enemies. You can't do much damage at this point but stay close to collect blue crystals which will up your strength. If you stand in front of Majin, he will restore your health. Yay! Use R2 and square on the door to have him open it. Your goal here is to whack away at the enemies as Majin knocks them down. This will activate the combo finishing attack, ‘press circle’ a powerful finishing move that also generates red crystals. Red crystals build their friendship which in turn makes their combos even more powerful. Head through second door and use save pillar. ‘Note that Majin must be there or you can't activate the pillars.’ Head into next room, watch scene then use Act on the wall once to prep Majin then you can just go ahead and hit act again and presto, pancakes! When you try to open the door it is locked so you need to go up and around to open it. See the little lizard on the wall? That means you can use Majin to piggyback you to a higher ledge. he will automatically do it this time but in the future, get him close then hit X twice, he'll crouch down for you to jump on his back then jump up to higher area. You now need to sneak around to the other side using the backstab attack to take out the guards as you go. Just take your time and make sure their backs are to you. Note that their purple life force just hangs over their bodies, that's because Majin is too far away to absorb them. Flip the switch, jump down, and have Majin open the door. Kill the enemies again trying to get all those combo kills and increasing their friendship. Make sure to get the 4th and final chest just before the door before going through. Save then approach next area. Again we're using the wall but this time you need to lure the big guy close to it first. Have Majin prep the wall then jump down and run close enough that big guy sees you. lure him close to the wall, but don't be under it yourself obviously, then tell Majin to let it rip. You should kill all but the big guy who will be stunned. Whack away and work with Majin to combo him to death which should level up your friendship to newbies! Head through the door, watch the scenes and Yay! We are outside and in the real world! 2. Arkela Castle - Gate Treasures: 1 blue chest, MS,#1 After the cutscenes head to the tree of life to enter another cutscene. Afterwards, on the right side of the path heading towards the new door there are some steps leading up to a blue chest. At night you can find your first memory shard ‘MS’ at the end of the bridge on the castle side. You can come back here to grab it when it starts to turn night in further areas. Also don't forget to pick up some small fruit for Majin before you head through the door. Well that's all there is to do here so let's carry on. Note, you may have noticed that I don't talk to the animals, but it is up to you. You can get some info from them if you want to talk to them yourself. 3. Ungdo Flower Patch: Treasures: 1 gold chest, 1 blue chest, MS,#2 When you try to get through the door Majin will tell you it's too heavy so go up and hit circle to give him a hand. After you've picked yourself up, head into the new area where you'll find a catapult. So just climb in yourself to begin as it's already set in the right position. Take a couple of stones from up there and drop them down. Jump down and using circle reposition the catapult to hit the breakable wall at the area you were just on. Put it back to the first position, fly up and walk around to collect the gauntlets from the gold chest. These can be equipped at the save pillars. Drop another stone or two, jump down and then swing the catapult around towards the other side of the opening we came from. Have Majin toss you up for the blue chest. Swing the catapult all the way down to the far end of that wall, smash the far breakable wall first, then the one that's closer. Once they're both broken have Majin send you up to the same spot where you just broke the wall. Drop down another stone or two then work your way around to the further side. There is an enemy here that if you sneak up and backstab is much quicker and easier to kill. Once he's been dispatched, flip the lever to unlock the door. Jump down and have Majin open the door. Then target the counterweight which Majin will automatically put in catapult. You can now reach the far breakable wall by the new door. Break it down, move the catapult back a little to a place where you can be thrown up safely, flip the lever and you can now open the door. Hopefully it's night by now so you should see the yellow MS on the pedestal closest to the catapult. Just jump and when Tepeu sticks his weapon in to grab hold, keep holding the left stick up and he will swing up to the top. Don't forget to go back and get the MS from the first area as well. Once all that's done, head through the door. 4. Tagalo Forest Checkpoint Treasures: 1 strength fruit, 2 blue chests, MS,#3 As you enter the area Majin tells you about the Monkey creatures. You should also know they like to jump on Majin's back and take away his powers. If this happens you need to jump up and knock them off as soon as you can. Ring the bell to attract them then try to take out at least one of them at the bottom of the ramp. By this time the rest have shown up up so take them out too. Once that's done have Majin crouch and jump up to the very obvious blue chest. Make your way around until you reach the big crank and have Majin open the door. While he waits you can make your way across the tops of the pillars and down the steps to the room behind the door. If it's night time you will find the MS at the bottom of the steps. You now can ring the bell there, wait till all of the enemies have come into the room, then give Majin the signal to close the door while you go back up the steps leaving them all trapped. You can now run along the top of the wall, over the gate to the blue chest #2. Make your way back to Majin without alerting the enemies, then the two of you hug the wall to the strength fruit for Majin so he can have it before you fight the big guy. Once you've piggybacked up, plucked and given it to Majin, you're ready to fight the next enemy. Once you've dispatched him have Majin bash the big boulders and head to next area. Yay! 5. Toto Waterfall - Power Plant Treasures: 1 Stamina fruit, 2 blue chests, MS,#4 After Bashing the 2 big boulders head towards the save pillar. Throw a stone, L1 and square, to blow up bomb sprout on ground. Save at Pillar. Make your way down the path throwing stones at the bomb sprouts before reaching them. Head to your left and down long ramp. Dispatch the group of enemies at the bottom of the ramp. Now head down the narrow path next to the ramp you just came down and follow it around to where the ladder is. Have Majin wait here. Now jump the fence and carefully backstab the three enemies in this area. Head back and climb the ladder by Majin. The key to getting to the archer is to hit a sprout beside him, then run to him and start hitting him. If you get blown back by the bomb sprouts it will stun him as well. Archers are not hard to kill. Once he's done head around the back of this structure, climb the steps and pluck the stamina fruit. Take it back to Majin. Head back up the long ramp and climb the structure over the waterfall. Jump from there to the first pillar, along side the ramp, then jump across the rest to the blue chest. Head back up the ramp and all the way around the other side. Go along this path until you see a blue chest between two rock croppings. At night you can have Majin piggyback you up onto the second of these rock croppings to the MS. There is another area further down this path but we can't do much there right now so lets leave it till later. Now head all the way back around down the ramp and continue on the path. You will come to an area called Moccoi Ruins - Graveyard, But because of the seal on the door we can't do anything here yet so keep going on the path to the next area grabbing the small fruit for Majin along the way. 6. Potrachi Altar Treasures: 1 Str. fruit, 1 gold chest, 2 blue chests, MS,#5 Save at the pillar for this new area. Go to your left and have Majin crouch as close to the wall with the ladder as he can, jump up, then jump up again to the bomb barrels. Pick up a barrel then drop or throw it onto the rock formation to reveal the hole in the wall. I recommend taking out at least the first 2 or 3 of the guards with backstab to give yourself room to move. Then climb up the second raised walkway, jump to small wooden pathway on wall and shimmy along the wall till you can jump onto the first raised walkway. Go to the top then use the barrels to blow up the 2 rock formations below you there, and then the 2 rock formations blocking a hole in the wall on each side. Go through the one closest to Majin for a gold chest containing a guard knights helm. Then make your way back to the other hole in the wall. Follow the path up to the last raised platform and jump onto it. Head immediately to the raised wall where the archer can't hit you. As soon as he takes a shot jump up and dodge roll to him, then give him his just deserts. Head up and destroy the mask. Finally, if you blow up the rocks at the opposite corner from where the barrels are, you'll find a blue chest through that hole in the wall. Now head back to Majin. If you use dodge roll all the way, any remaining guards will not be able to hit you. To finish up this area head all the way around to the other side up the long path, noting alcove on left side as you go, until Majin automatically goes and preps the surprise. Now you go lure the enemies until they're all chasing you and lead them back towards the alcove, tell Majin to let her rip as you do then jump up into alcove. Yay! Now, head back to where the enemies were standing, piggyback off Majin to the upper level, climb up then drop down to the blue chest. Work your way back around and piggyback back up but this time take the high path up the ladder. If it's night you can follow this path right to the very end for the MS. Pluck the strength fruit and take it back to Majin. That should be everything here so lets head back to the graveyard. Don't forget if it's night now and you didn't get the MS from the Power Plant to go get it now. 7. Moccoi Ruins - Graveyard Treasures: Wind fruit, Stamina fruit, gold chest, 2 blue chests, MS,#6 Have Majin piggyback you up over wall where lizard is, then sneak to the back of room backstabbing the guards along the way. Take the path up and back to the ladder. Use ladder or jump across to the other side of the central hall. Again sneak to the back backstabbing as you go. Take the path back up, throw a stone at the bomb sprouts then quickly make your way to the archer, kill or knock him off the pedestal. Go back and open the blue chest, then flip the lever to unlock door. Have Majin open it, head in and take out all guards. You may want to save before going to next section. Head through second door. Ok, lots of enemies. But easier than it looks. First have Majin wait at the bottom of the slope just out of sight. Then sneak along walkway to back area where the 2 archers are. Hide behind pillar at corner and wait until you can sneak and backstab the pacing guard. Now backstab the 2 archers. Go back around to the first stone pillar that you can hit act on for Majin and do so. Once prepped, jump down and lure the big guy to a position where the pillar will hit him and do so. Repeat this with the other 2 pillars that you can act on and he'll be dead. Then you and Majin clean up any stragglers. The guy with the gold head will keep calling reinforcements so take him out quickly. The 2 remaining archers should have come down by now so that should be everybody, if not go take care of them. Hit act on the wind fruit and Majin has just learned wind! Now make your way up the other walkway to the stamina fruit. If it's night the MS will appear on the rocky outcrop that you can jump down to from where this fruit is. Head back up the walkway and go around the other way, jump to pedestal, then jump to top for blue chest. Finally jump down to alcove at back of room for the gold chest, first knights armor. On to next area. 8. Moccoi Ruins - Excavation Site Treasures: 2 blue chests, MS,#7 Head across the raised walkway and hit act on the big barrel. Majin's wind will allow you to jump across and flip the lever to unlock door. Now take out all the enemies and grab the blue chest. Head through door, proceed down the path until you can turn left and go around that path and down the stairs, have Majin wait at bottom of those stairs. Lure the big guy to him and the two of you take him out. You can now target the archers with Majin's wind to knock them down and then kill them. If Majin is now out of magic, go back to previous area and kill enemies to charge up again. Make your way to the back of the room and take the stairs up, follow the walkway around past the barrel. It is possible to jump around the barrel without using wind so save your magic, climb the ladder and go around to the barrel. If you continue along this walkway at night you get to the MS. Have Majin blow the barrel so you can hop on then jump off on the other side. Flip the door lock and grab the blue chest. Head through the door. 9. Moccoi Ruins - Great Temple: Boss Fight “Caprakan” Save then head through the door. After cutscene you end up on a center area with two platforms, one on each side. Go to the one opposite of the spider, then hit him with stone throw. He will then come after you which will put him where Majin can blow the barrel to hit him. so tell him to do so while dodging his attacks. This will cause him to fall. Immediately jump down and start smacking his red crystal head, not his back, till he gets up and webs back up. Quickly climb the ladder and repeat, this time from the other side. It should only take 2 times. You are now stuck with him at the bottom, Majin to the rescue!! Now "wind" is the key. If you time it right it will knock him off balance although now and then just Majin hitting him will do it, ‘He'll stand up on a couple of legs flailing about’ hit him with wind again and he'll fall. Then hit act on the barrel and Majin will pick it up and smack his back with it. Note while all this going on your job is to slash at his legs to regenerate Majin's magic while doing your best not to get hit. 2 times and you're done. Sad scene. 10. Hawme'a Falls Treasures: 1 blue chest, MS,#8 Alright, spidey is dead. So now we have to head all the way back to the Tagalo Forest checkpoint. As you head back through the Excavation site you will run into a new enemy that looks like an eyeball on legs. I call them leeches as if you let them they will syphon all of Majin's HP. But they do drop tons of red crystals! Once you've made it back to the Forest checkpoint, take the north path and head up to Hawme'a Falls. You should make sure you've gathered all the MS's to this point as we won't be back for a while. Once there take the path that goes under the main path to grab the chest and have Majin blow down the little bridge. Now flip the level for the big bridge and get Majin across. Note that at night the MS is is at the end of the broken bridge. Go to tree of life for cutscene. Head through door. 11. Tenguey Forest Tower Treasures: Str. fruit, 3 blue chests, MS,#9 Go around until just before wall stops. Have Majin wait here then head up and over the big petrified tree. Open the blue chest then jump down to the monster below. This guy I call a whippersnapper. If you try to just swing at him he will make mincemeat of you. What you need to do is use the X + square thrust move to knock him off the ledge. ‘Lay your thumb across both buttons at the same time’ Try to aim him in the direction of Majin. This is important. Don’t jump down in front of the open door there or engage the monster close to it, there are more monsters in there and you don't want to fight them all at once. Jump toward Majin, lure him in that direction then tell Majin to attack. Once he's done, heal and save if you want. then go into the door there and kill the monsters in there. Before doing anything in there, tell Majin to wait go back out and around the corner. You’ll see 3 monsters including 2 more whippersnappers. Go close enough to have them chase you through the other doorway, once you’re sure they're in, climb up the steps and flip the switch to lock them in. Now go back to Majin and climb on his back near the wall with the lizard. work your way all the way around to the door. At nighttime you'll see the memory shard up here. Flip the switch to close door, jump on, then have Majin re-open it. That will allow you to carry on to the mask. Ok, now the two of you need to go back up the petrified tree and kill the WS guarding the gate. once this is all done, you find you can't open the gate. But you'll see that the door that you used to lock away those monsters is open again but there are only normal monsters there now. Kill them, climb back up and do the same thing with this door as you did with the last. You can now get up to the strength fruit for Majin. Cool! There is an area you can access at the top of the petrified tree called Pele Bridge, but we can't do much there now so let's just leave it. 12.Tangalo'a Swamp - Moving Bridges “Part 1” Treasures: 2 blue chests MS,#10 So lets continue back through the main path. Right at the beginning of this area, climb up to top of platforms for blue chest. Have Majin stay, run along top of platforms to only lit up switch and pull it. Go back and grab Majin, head in and clean up bad guys in center area. You can jump and hit flying guys. If they're high you can throw stones at them but that's not fun in battle. Once they're disposed of, head to the far east as per map, climb ladder and steps to reach chest. You can also drop bomb barrels on stones if you want to do that now. join up with Majin and go around to take out next group of enemies. There are some steps to go around and take out the archer who is the only pain here. I should mention you can see a fruit to the far south but we can't get to it yet. Starting to really want electricity yet?? Right at the steps you used to get up to the archer, there is a high platform you can climb at night to reach the MS. If you've collected all 10 to this point you'll receive first knight crown! That's all we can do here now, on to next area. 13. Kanay Valley Treasures: Str. fruit, 2 blue chests, MS,#11 Save then head to door which of course you can't open. That would be be just too bloody easy wouldn't it. Opposite the door is a hole in the wall that only you can get through which leads to a path that a whippersnapper is guarding. But if you look on the wall by the hole you will see our friend the lizard. So climb up up and make your way around to the barrels above the WS. Now if you just drop, not throw the barrel behind him you'll knock him down to where he can't bother you anymore. Or you can knock him over toward Majin, drop a couple more barrels on him and collect his crystals. Go back around, shoot the bomb sprouts, then shimmy around the path until you come out in the new area. Follow the path around above the monsters till you come to the big box. Grab it and push it to the end. Climb up and flip door switch, bingo. You're good! Even Majin says so! So through the door we go, killing next group of enemies with great glee. Now have Majin prepare the obvious little surprise for the next group. Run around till the big guy comes after you, run back to surprise, jump up on ledge and tell Majin to let it rip. That'll teach them to stand in the middle of the road. Ok so lets collect chests. Blue chest hiding at far side of door. Blue chest in alcove around where big enemy was standing. Have Majin crouch close to the wall where you walked around upper path, near corner where you went around to big box, you'll be able to jump onto an even higher ledge that will lead you to a strength fruit. Majin says Yah!! Finally at night you'll find the MS up the steps in wall opposite the 2 large stone arches. On to next area! 14. Wana Mu'bi Fortress Treasures: Stm fruit, gold chest, 2 blue chests, MS,#12 Head in and clean up the riff raff, again you can knock flyers out of the sky by throwing stones at them. At night inside the hole in the bars to your left as you enter the area you'll find a MS. Ok, this always breaks me up. First hit act on the water wheel that's working. Once that's done, hit act on the one that isn't. This will get the two pistons next to it working which will allow you to work your way around to the switch for the door to the catapult stones. So lets break some walls. First do the one over the working water wheel. Climb up to the equipment chest. Then break the wall by the other water wheel. Follow the path revealed around to the door switch allowing it to close. You now have clear shot to the wall outside the door. Once you've broken it have Majin re-open the door, go there to climb on his back up and follow the path around to the other door switch. While you're up there, don't forget to grab the stamina fruit for Majin. When you get back down, just a little further down the path is another wall you can piggyback up to get on top of, getting you to a blue chest. Finally lets go through that last door now that we can open it. Take the ladder up and follow the path to the blue and last chest for this area. Majin say's "Yay! 15. The Royal Gardens Treasures: wind fruit, 1 blue chest, MS,#13 So let's head through that last door and head north to the Gardens. Save and grab a small fruit if needed. Head down and take out all the enemies at the bottom. Then have Majin blow the hanging crate in the center of the room and wait while you run around to release the lever lock for this crate which causes it to lock up where Majin is. Have him climb aboard, flip the lever and then go meet him on the other side. Head towards the locked door and piggyback up the wall where the lizard is. Grab the blue chest then go and unlock the door. Have Majin open it then fill up on water. Right next to the door, jump to the lower bucket and hit act on the higher one. Once you're raised up, jump up and grab the blue chest. Go back around and have the big guy fill up again. Now have him wait in the crate and send him back to the first position. Now lead him to the buckets in the bottom left ‘Southwest’ corner. Have him fill the bucket and raise you up to the wind fruit to boost his wind attack. Before we head back for more water we need to reposition the other hanging crate. Have Majin blow it over then flip the switch to send it back. Now take Majin back to fill with water. Now we obviously have go back through the two hanging crates to the final set of buckets. Position yourself on the low one and have him fill the other. Destroy the mask and we have opened up the other area. The MS will show at night on the ground near end where the mask was. So now we head back to the fortress and take the other path to the left. 16. Malawa Research Wing Treasures: Lightning fruit, Str fruit, 2 blue chest, MS,#14 Save then pull lever to call elevator if it's not already down. Flip the other switch to take it up and then do a little pest control. Once you've taken care of them head through the door. New enemy we'll call a sentinel. Just dodge roll at angles to it quickly, one hit takes it out. Have Majin piggyback you up the cliff here to reach the blue chest. When you head through the door you'll get pan shot that shows you a big fruit up on the central area guarded by a very mean big guy. Have Majin wait at door then head to your right ‘north’ and climb up tree to walkway. Walk along this path and take out the first sentinel. keep going to the corner and move crate to climb up to higher area. Carefully jump down close to wall then sneak and backstab the 2 guards. I would call Majin to come and absorb their life force, then wait there. Cross beam and dispose of sentinel. Go back and climb cliff to get to 2nd blue chest. Jump down and go across to the elevator and send it down for Majin. Once you're both up, have him boost you up the wall right there. See lizard. Work your way around, drop a bomb barrel behind the whippersnapper to knock him below. Head back down with Majin and finish him off. Now go back to the tree and ladder from the beginning. This time taking the beam all the way across to take out the last sentinel. Jump down and have the elevator take you and Majin back up. Go around to the other side close to where blue chest was up on cliff. You'll see another cliff top with a strength fruit for you to piggyback up and pluck. Feed this to Majin then have him stand as close to the end of the extendable bridge as possible and wait there. Jump down and go back to the ladder at the other end of the center area. Climb the ladder enough that you can see the big guy but he can't see you. Now this is the tricky part. Try to time it so you can make a mad dodge rolling dash to the bridge control while his back is turned and then repeatedly tap circle as fast as you can. Chances are he will knock you flying once or twice before you can get it extended. Make sure to go and have Majin heal you as you don't want to be half dead for this fight. Once you get the bridge extended have Majin attack and take him out!! Hit act on the lightning fruit. Yay! Watch the cutscene. At night the MS is up on high walkway where the bombs are. As we now have lightening we can carry on or go back to complete other areas. I'm going to recommend going back to re-visit a couple of areas. Note. You will likely run into leeches during your travels back to other areas. They are excellent for farming red friendship crystals but you have to handle them with care. Remember that they will disappear after a certain amount of damage, or time, I’m not sure, so your goal is not to take them out. It is to hit them as many times as you can for red crystals while making sure that they don’t gang up on Majin and drain all his HP. So hit one 2 or 3 times then move on to the next one hanging around Majin. If they start draining it only takes one hit to stop them. If you can lure one or two off on their own that’s ideal, but not always possible. 17. Tangalo'a Swamp - Moving Bridges. “Revisited” Treasures: Wind fruit, Stamina fruit So head back to Moving bridges, go down and clean out the enemies, then have Majin use Lightning on the two transformers that are not activated. Climb the ladder at the south wall and up the steps to drop a bomb barrel to remove rocks from the platform if you didn't do this last time. Now climb the ladder in the southeast corner so that you can make your way back to the lever closest to the original entrance to this area. Flip it then go out and pluck the wind fruit to feed to Majin. I would then climb the ladder necessary to return this section to it's original position. Now head down to the lever at the end of this long section ‘southeast corner’ and flip it so we can access the bomb barrels there. Finally activate the lever at the northeast so that we can now carry those barrels up to the rock formation blocking the hole in the wall. Drop one down to take care of the rocks then jump down to pluck the stamina fruit. You'll have to move one section again to give it to Majin. We now have everything here. We still can't do everything at Pele Bridge so let's head all the way back to Toto Waterfall to get to the laboratory. 18. B'alam Laboratory Treasures: Str fruit, 1 gold chest, 2 blue chests, MS,#15 Head into the Lab and take care of the enemies first. Once that's done open the obvious blue chest by the elevator we can't operate yet. Now head through the hole in the wall and you'll see a bunch of electrical conductors, some that you can move, some you can't. As we don't have enough to open the door to let Majin in, lets open the other door. Using the conductors that don't move place the 2 that you can evenly between those to create a line to the mechanism for that door. Then target the first one by the hole in the wall for Majin and if they're placed right his electricity will transfer to and activate the door switch. Open it up, then take the last conductor that you placed and move it so that it will now create a current to the mechanism for the elevator there. Have Majin activate it. Place the conductor there on the elevator and raise it to take it back to the first room. Note that at night the MS is on the ledge next to this elevator. Now that you have 3 movable conductors, position them to activate the first door switch and let Majin in. Alright, now we're getting somewhere. Have Majin follow you around to the far room and have him activate that elevator. Before you jump on, climb the steps next to the doorway to this room to reach the gold chest for a Bandit's hood. Now climb on the elevator with Majin and raise it. Have him wait while you make your way along the ledge there to the blue chest. Finally have Majin activate the mechanism at the end of the walkway. Jump down and activate the elevator to reach the red strength fruit. Now that we have everything here and have increased Majin abilities a bit, lets head all the way back to the Malawa Research wing to get to the new area, Experiments wing. 19. Malawa - Experiments Wing Treasure: Stm fruit, 1 gold chest, 2 blue chests, MS#16 Head past two doors as they're not working yet and up the path. Disregard the electrical conductor at the top of the rise, we can't do anything with it yet. Instead follow the walkway back and have Majin activate the mechanism for the doors. Also have him activate the conductor on the other side of the walkway for the elevator. Lets head back down to the doors. Open the first door, closest to save pillar, climb ladder and pick up the conductor in the narrow pathway and take it down to the other end to line up with the conductors there. So head all the way back down then up the path with Majin to have him activate those conductors. Ok, we're ready to go kick some darkness butt, through the second door we go. Once you've taken care of all the bad guys, take the elevator up to the next area. Just to the side of the elevator in the direction we came from you will find a blue chest around a little path. You will notice some bars with a hole in them, behind which there are a bunch of conductors and small stone walls. Of course you need to line up the conductors to charge the 2 mechanisms at the back of the room. This is made easier as there are marks on the floor telling you where to put them. The first closer one is real easy, the one further back takes a bit more effort. To complete that circuit go up the stairs at the back of the room to find an additional conductor. take it to the raised area around the mechanism and jump with it to the wall opposite as you need to put it up there. You will also need to put one on the raised area you were just on around the mechanism. Line the rest up on the marks on the floor Then have Majin let it rip. Head to the door just east of this room, open it and grab the gold chest for Scholars clothes. Note that at night the MS is up in a notch in the wall by this chest. You will need Majin to piggyback you up. Head to the other door and have Majin wait by the door switch. Open it then hug the left wall till you get to the ladder. Go up and take out the archer and the 2 sentinels. Grab the blue chest then use the ledge above the door to get close to the enemies on the other side. Time the jump down so you can take them out with back stab. Have Majin come in the room to absorb their life force. Line up the conductors with the marks on the floor. Jump up through the hole in the wall there and grab the stamina fruit for Majin. He can fight more and more!! Now go back around and Have Majin charge the first conductor at the top of the stairs. Well another area taken care of. "Your good!" 20. Great Tree Malawa - Antenna Boss fight “B’alam” As Lightning is the new magic acquired in this section it will be the key to this battle. After the cutscene your job is to get up onto the higher surrounding pathway and place conductors on the North and south sides to complete the circuit from the devices on the ground to the large spikes above. You will need two or three to complete each. Once that is done you need to lure the ugly bug under one of the big electrical spikes. You can tell by the gold circles on the ground below them. You can do this by banging on a gong in the corner as he is attracted to sound. As he is moving towards the circle on the floor below the spike, target the transformer for Majin. If he is underneath, or at least close, he will be stunned by the electricity. Move in quickly and start smacking his glowing red head. When you see he's starting to come out of it quickly move away. Repeat this a second or possibly third time and he will go on a rampage knocking down one of the big spikes which will fall & stab right into his back! Perfect, the rest is easy. Just have Majin target the spike with electricity which will stun him, move in and whack away at the glowing spot on his chest until he comes to, and repeat. Again two or three times of this and he's done. Easy peasy. Watch the cutscene, head out, and it looks like we're heading for the desert. Lets head back to the Malawa Research Wing. When you arrive back at the Research Wing a scene will inform you that the Room of Transport is now open. So lets go use it. When inside, use the push bar in the center to turn it to the green area, then pull the lever over the green area to get transported to the Excavation Site. From there make your way back to the Potrachi Altar and through the newly opened door at the southeast corner. 21. Pualata Cargo Shed Treasures: 1 blue chest, MS,#17 Have Majin blow the big barrel so you can jump on, then jump off at the platform with the blue chest. Once you've picked that up, head up the ladder and flip the door lock lever. Note that at night you will the MS under the platform with the blue chest on it. Head through the door to the Life Tree for another cutscene. Off to new area. 22.Dudugera Way Treasures: Str fruit, 2 blue chests, MS,#18 So there is a bridge to cross but no way to lower it. If you look at the left wall you'll see a hole that you can crouch through. Sneak and backstab the first couple of enemies, but the last two can be more difficult, plus they have shields. There is also a blue chest up on the right wall that you can only reach with the big box. So you can fight them or do what I did. I kept them on the other side of the box from me while I pushed or pulled it around till I was close enough to jump up on the wall and grab the chest, then from there jumped as close to the ladder as I could, then jumped up onto the ladder. See ya! Flip the bridge lever and do a little dance! I would recommend saving before carrying on. At the bottom of the steps you'll see two new enemies we'll call hounds. These guys are fairly tough so handle with care. Lure them close to the bottom of the steps so you don't attract any other foes, then do a little hit and run while Majin weakens them for you. Lightning works very well at stunning them allowing you and Majin time to get in a bunch of free hits so you know. Once they're taken care of, have Majin wait there while you sneak around the two sentinels and take them out. If you hug the wall by the tree they won’t see you. Then have Majin piggyback you up the stone wall so that you can pluck and give him the strength fruit. Now this next group of enemies can be very hard or very easy. It consists of a big axe wielder and 3 flyers. To make it easy make use of your magic. Wind will stagger the big guy and if you hit him in the head you'll knock him down for a free combo attack. Lightning is also very effective at stunning them and allowing you to do major damage. Once you've taken care of them, Piggyback up to the mask and destroy it. At night you will find the MS to left ‘south’ side of this structure near the ground. You will also see some big steps to the south side that lead up to the final blue chest. That's it for this area. 23. Grangache Ravine Dig Site “Part 1” Treasures: 1 blue chest. This is another area that we can only do part of right now. Head round the path until you see 2 more hounds. Again lure them towards you as there are more enemies hiding around the corner. Once you've taken care of them go under the archway to your right, take care of the guards and open blue chest. If you approach the fire Majin will tell you he's not ready to deal with it and there's nothing you can do up the ladder so lets carry on. Take care of the enemies as you travel down the path to the next area. 24. Ko'da Naval Equipment Warehouse “Part 1” Treasures: Lightning fruit, gold chest, 2 blue chests, MS,#19 So new upgraded enemies again. These guys are so good with their shields that they can even sometimes block Majin. So use your magic if you're having a hard time but remember not to get carried away and deplete all your magic as you will be needing it for solving puzzles a lot as well. Once you take care of the 3 shield guys, go to the far end ‘east’ and take care of the 2 guys and a hound by the flower. Where the first group of bad guys stood is a electrical device, so activate it. This activates an elevator by the entrance so let's take it up with Majin. Then just take the next one down, kill the guard there. Head down the tunnel area until you see an alcove with a ladder on your right. Have Majin piggyback you up and pluck the lightning fruit for him. Go back up and around the building to reach the suspended air ducts. Carefully walk across the ducts to reach the gold chest for Marine's manifer. Go back and join Majin, Take the elevator down as we'll need it when we come back later. At night head up the big steps here to get the MS. (You can also climb the long ladder from the outside to reach it.) Head back up the elevators with Majin. Down where the little food flower is you'll see a device that Majin can't activate yet, so lets take the sloped path up and around to get above it. Once up, piggyback up the wall by the lizard, go around and open the blue chest. Drop down the hole there and toss the two conductors down then jump down to the device yourself. Line up the conductors of course. A little zap magic, then call the elevator and take it up with Majin. As you head out you will see the last blue chest on the roof of the building on your left. Jump over the rocks to grab it, jump down to the path and take the elevator back up to exit this area. 25. Kingdom Navy Headquarters “Part 1” Treasures: Stamina fruit, 2 blue chests, MS,#20 As you enter you will see a tower with a long ladder so have Majin wait there and go up the Ladder. If you're careful at the top you can backstab the enemy there. But either way, take him out, then drop down to the lower area where the guard wall is broken. Slide the big box so that you can hop over the red box and head over to grab the stamina fruit for Majin. On the left ‘west’ side of the tower there is a bridge that Majin can blow down for you. Use it to go across then make a mad dash over to the lever to let down the main bridge. Run back around to where Majin is waiting, have him heal you if needed then lets go take out the bad guys. If you use Lightning on the big guy once or twice they won't give you much trouble. To the north is a locked door but to the left of the path is a rocky ledge. Have Majin Piggyback you up there at night for the MS. That should be number 20 for you which will give you the First Knights gauntlets. There is a big door right there so lets have Majin open it. Take the elevator up and open the blue chest. Have Majin wait here and jump down where you found the chest and make you way around to another blue chest. Head back to meet Majin. Great, more swinging barrels! You know the routine, Have Majin use some of that hot air and make your way across. Destroy the mask, Yay! On your way around you will see a gold chest, but as we don't have what we need to reach it yet, we will come back later. So make your way with Majin to the path for next area. You will probably have to go back up and use the elevator to get him back down. That's it for here. 26. Gaka Volcanic Iron Factory “Part 1” Treasures: Wind fruit, gold chest, blue chest, MS,#21 Head past the ship as it's sealed, grab a flower if you need one, then head to the Iron Factory. Save, then when you head in, Majin will tell you about the new kind of enemy. Take the path to your left down around to the main area. Try to draw the enemies to the exit of the tunnel then hit them with lightning, they should be much easier to handle after that. Once they're taken care of, have Majin piggyback you up for the wind fruit. Your wind is maxed! Now head towards the other exit but don't go through. Use stone throw to draw the 2 hounds into the main area and turn them into hot dogs. Yum! Now go through the doorway and have Majin use wind on the 2 archers while you turn the wheel to extend the bridge. Go across and finish off the archers, then drop down under the bridge for the blue chest. Go back up, have Majin piggyback you up, then take out the 2 sentinels. Finally open the gold chest for a Bandit's costume*. Head back down to the central area. Note that at night you will find the MS in the area where the 2 hounds were hanging out. Take the path up from center area, ignore the section behind the red crates and the bridge as we can't do anything with it right now, and have Majin bust through the large rock formation and head to next area.
*Note: Although I'm just letting you decide what outfits you want to
wear, I do recommend equipping the bandits costume as it ups the
amount of red crystals you receive from combo attacks thus making
your friendship rise faster. Always a good thing!

27. Ebilya Earth Furnace
Treasures: Str fruit, gold chest, 2 blue chests, MS,#22

As you come into this area have Majin wait behind the wall for you.
Then when you go in you will see there are archers waiting for you
with exploding arrows no less! So immediately go to the left ‘west’
and in the corner you will find a ladder to get up to their level.
As usual a combination of moving fast, dodge rolling and hitting the
bomb sprouts with stone throw is what to do with archers. After
you've taken them out, grab the blue chest on the ground and the
gold chest for a Marine's cap. up by the last archer. You will
notice that there are pillars that Majin can do nothing about from
the ground. so lets head through the door.
Oops, won't open. Have Majin wait there and head back up the ladder
in the corner. Go out west to the other big area. Note that at night
the MS is in the far corner up on this path. Take the narrow path on
your right and head north to go behind the big ball. dodge roll
right past the enemy there, climb the ladder and release the door.
Have Majin open it and take out the one enemy. Head to the ball and
have Majin prep it. Go around the other way taking notice of the
step up just in front of the ball. Go down and offer yourself up to
the enemies, then run like heck back up to the ball making sure
they're all following you, hit act and jump up the side escape
route. Hopefully the ball took care of everybody, but if not, you
know what to do. Go down to the center whatever it is, piggyback up
and pluck the strength fruit for Majin. then jump down and grab the
blue chest in the corner. Now you can take Majin up the path and
around to the upper section of the previous area. Have Majin knock
over the 2 pillars, Jump down and make your way through the new path
to destroy the mask. You've now broken the seal on the ship, so lets
head back there. You did great!
28.Chibirias - Stern
Treasures: Fire fruit, gold chest, 3 blue chests MS,#23

Head onto the ship and after scene go and take out the enemies
guarding the door. Once they're out of the way, open door to block
sentinel, head in and climb up the boxes on your left for a blue
chest. Head back the way you came and take long pathway to your
right, ‘north’ go around the corner till you get to the lizard on
the wall. Once up there you can sneak attack the guards, although I
would draw them back to where Majin is and take them out
permanently. Go down the path and grab a bomb barrel. Go back and up
the stairs, and toss down in front of the rather obvious partially
blown away wall. Once inside this area you'll see another similar
wall on your left with a sentinel above guarding it. The quickest
way to deal with this is to just pick up a barrel and walk to the
wall. When the sentinel hits you it will blow up the wall as well.
Then climb the ladder and smack him for hitting you.
While up there follow the path around being careful when you get to
the corner so that you can backstab the guard patrolling there. Go
to the end and jump down to the raised walkway to flip the door
switch. Note that at night you will find the MS right at the end of
this walkway. Target the door so Majin can join you. Take him
through the wall you blew out, go to the left and you'll find a blue
chest. Then go through the second blown wall down the stairs and
have Majin eat the fire fruit. Yay! Fire, finally! Go back up to the
wall above door you flipped the switch on for Majin, Piggyback up
for the blue chest sitting right above the door. You can also jump
down to this roof from walkway above. Go back to the ladder where
the sentinel was hanging on the beam, climb up and go around the
pathway until you see where you can jump down onto another roof and
grab the gold chest for Marine's armor. That's it so head back
towards the entrance and take the other path that is blocked by
fire.

29. Chibirias - Engine
Treasures: Stm fruit, 2 blue chest MS,#24

Have Majin suck up the fire then save at the pillar you can now
reach. Hit act on the red crates and Majin will do his thing. Yeah,
go ahead and do your dance. After this "Do Not" bust the red crates
to your right. Instead head left and go around until you find the
enemies guarding a blue chest. Take care of them, open chest. Then
circle back and go up the staircase until you reach 2nd blue chest.
After opening, jump over the edge and try to sneak up on the gold
shield officer. Either way, take him out yourself. Now go up the
stairs a bit, jump down and have Majin heal you. Now that the
officer can't keep calling reinforcements, we can take care of the
enemies behind those crates. Have Majin take care of crates, then go
in and clean up the enemies. Once they're out of the way, have Majin
get rid of the fire at the bottom of the stairs, pluck the stamina
fruit right there, then head up the stairs. You'll reach a point
where Majin can't go further until you drop a bridge, so take the
left path until you reach the red crates. Majin can't reach so jump
across to the little platform behind you and grab a bomb. Take it
back to Majin and have him ignite it. ‘circle’ Quickly as you can
take it back to the red crates. After you pick yourself up, heh,
carefully go around until you’re hiding at the corner where you can
sneak and backstab guard. Use lever to lower the bridge.
Head to next area with Majin and have him put out the fire behind
the bars. Pick up one of the bombs close by then head into the
doorway to the right of where the fire was and follow the hallway
around to the room where the fire was, set the bomb down for now,
and go through the other door until you come to a ladder. Note that
at night the MS is located right near the bottom of this ladder.
You'll see some red crates so go back, grab bomb, have Majin ignite
it through the bars then run and place it by the crates. Now cross
the narrow beam to flip door switch. Jump down and target the door
for Majin to open it. Head in and save at the pillar.
30. Chibirias - Bow. Boss fight “Chibirias”

Head through the door for the cutscene. Now your goal here is to hit
him with the bombs, of course they have to be lit first. When you do
hit him he'll be stunned and you then want to smack the breather
tube that's glowing red as much as you can. I will be honest here,
most of the time he would hit us as Majin was igniting the bomb for
me. But it would blow up and stun him, so once I picked myself up I
was right there to start wailing away at his glowing red tube. It's
a really big area so there's lots of chances to heal Majin or have
him heal you if needed. It took me 3 times to get to the cutscene
and part 2. In the second part there seemed to be 2 ways to get
where we needed to be. one was to wait for him to start sucking in
breath and toss a lit bomb in his mouth while he's doing it to stun
him. I also found though that just hitting him on the side with a
bomb would stun him as well. Either way you need Majin to open his
mouth so immediately target attack on him when stunned and that's
what he will do. As soon as he does you need to run into his mouth
and attack the red crystal in there. When Majin says you need to get
out, do so quickly. Again it took 3 times of this and he was done.
Another sad scene. Once it's over, head out. Three down!

So know that we have fire, lets do some backtracking and complete
all those areas we couldn't before.

31. Kingdom Navy Headquarters “Revisited”
Treasures: Gold chest

So as you enter the area you'll see red crates at the bottom of the
tower. Have Majin blow them up then grab a bomb and head over the
bridge and to the elevator. Up top head to the end closest to the
tower. What you need to do is have Majin wait at the end, ignite a
bomb, then you have to quickly jump down to the balcony of the tower
go in the door and throw the bomb at the red box. Good luck! I had a
lot of trouble with this. I did find I was more successful jumping
from the broken corner rather than the metal grate at the end. Also
don't get caught on the edge of the doorway. Get down to the bottom
of the stairs before you throw or it will explode above the box.
Once you've destroyed the crate push the box all the way down the
walkway to the end, jump up onto it, and from there to the rock
outcrops and open the gold chest for the Helm of Darkness. Now go
back up and bring Majin down to the freshly opened room of transport
right there. Set it to the blue area and pull the lever. This will
send you back to the Malawa Research wing. Head from there back to
Denguey Forest Tower. From the Forest tower take the petrified tree
up and then take the path to the right.

32. Pele Bridge
Treasures: Fire fruit, 2 Gold chest, 2 blue chests. MS,#25

Save at the pillar then take steps down. Note that at night the MS
will be on top of the stone platform right near the bottom of the
steps. Head to your left ‘south’ and have Majin do a little bridge
demolition. go over the new path to the gold chest on the rock
outcrop. Now head all the way north to the stone platform with the
blue chest on it. Piggyback up the back side for the chest then go
over and show the group of enemies what for. Now climb up the big
steps there to get to the big red crates. Have Majin dispense of
them and head in. In the next room you will see a lot of weird
platforms. Note that one of them is lower than the rest. Have Majin
Piggyback you up to that one and jump over to the one with the fire
fruit. jump down, give it to Majin, then piggyback back up and jump
all the way over to the door switch. Yay! So head through the door,
take care of the bad guys here, again lightning works wonders. Then
have Majin activate the device and open the blue chest. Alright,
lets head down to that other door right at the bottom. Take care of
the enemies guarding the door then pull the lever to get to the gold
chest for Bandit's manifer. Well now we'll head to the room of
transport at the Moccoi Ruins Excavation Site. Once there set the
machine to the picture of a ship and lets head back to the Naval
Headquarters.
33. Ko'da Naval Equipment Warehouse “Revisited”
Treasures: Fire fruit

Pretty straight forward, head to and use the elevator at the far
exit. (west side) Take the second one down and make your way around
to the elevator down there and take it up. If you didn't bring it
down when we were last here you'll have to piggyback up to the
ladder then jump onto the elevator to take it down. Have Majin
destroy the red crate and pluck the fire fruit for Majin. Ok, off to
the Dig Site.

34. Grangache Ravine Dig Site “Revisited”
Treasures: Stamina fruit, lightening fruit, blue chest, MS,#26

As you enter take the path blocked by fire and Have Majin remove the
3 fire obstacles. When you enter the next area ignore the archer on
your left, instead go right and take care of the 2 guards there.
Ignore the door, can't open yet. Take the path heading back the way
we came, killing the 2 hounds and then the guards when you get to
the open area. Take the path to the red crates, have Majin remove,
and clear out the final guards there. Hit act on the bars, pluck the
lightening fruit and Yay! Stronger lightning! Head back to area with
door we couldn't open. See the piston like pillars to your right.
Jump up to that raised area and then twice more at the reddish
steps. Jump from there to the first pillar and then over to the door
switch. Head through the door, have Majin remove the fire and pluck
the stamina fruit. Go back and jump up to that pillar again. Jump
across the rest and over to outcrop. Throw a stone at one or two of
the explodable sprouts by the archer then have Majin hit him with
wind. Hopefully this knocks off his perch, but if not, quickly
piggyback up and finish him off. Jump up to the higher walkway and
grab the blue chest. Finally, at night take the path that was
guarded by the 2 hounds up to open area and at the far end of that
area you will find the MS. So lets head all the way north to the
Iron Factory.

35. Gaka Volcanic Iron Factory “Revisited”
Treasures: Blue chest.

Head down the path to the central area then take the other sloped
path up and hang a left to have Majin destroy the red crates. Open
blue chest and extend the bridge for easier access. Alright, enough
backtracking, head to the Earth Furnace and through the newly opened
door.

36. Koom Honu'a Passage
Treasures: 1 blue chest, MS,#27

Make your way through the Earth Furnace, fighting the enemies or
just running past, which ever you wish. Make your way around and
through the door. Instead of going to the Life Tree, take the path
to your left down. Just at the turn there is a small pond, at night
you will find the MS right there. Keep following the path until you
come to the blue chest. Now go back to the beginning and over to the
crank wheel to extend the bridge. You will see a dark puddle on the
ground.We can't do anything about them now but you do want to try to
avoid them unless you like playing "really slow." Head to the Life
Tree for a cutscene then head on through the door.
37. Moonglow Cave
Treasures: Strength fruit, 2 blue chest, MS,#28

Head across the bridge, watch scene about mask, then take care of
enemies in center area. Concentrate on the new Large rodent like
enemy first, they hit fairly hard. Again using your favorite magic
helps a lot. Once they're done you'll see there are 2 paths, north
leads to a locked door, and the west leads to the next area. So go
to the machine in the center and have Majin turn it twice. Climb the
ladder up the skinny pillar, head right to open blue chest then
carefully sneak down back walkway to backstab the 2 guards. Note
that if you have Majin follow he'll be close enough to draw their
life force. Head back around to the beginning of path and go up the
steps to the rock formation. Go through opening and grab a bomb
barrel taking it back to the rocks. Target the machine and have
Majin turn it till the sentinel shoots at you blowing up the rocks,
jump over the back to get out of the line of fire, have Majin move
the machine once then go pluck the strength fruit. Feed it to Majin
then make your way back up to this area. Back on the back path grab
a bomb barrel and take it down to the rock formation blocking the
path. Target the machine for Majin and have him turn it until the
sentinel comes around enough to fire at you holding the barrel by
the rocks. Boom! Head through the hole then take your time and sneak
up on the enemy there, carry on to corner and sneak kill that guard.
Have Majin follow of course. You'll see a guard behind a fence to
your right but ignore him and jump up on the platform to your right
and destroy the mask. Keep going down the path. Sneak over the
bridge and backstab the last guard. Go to the end of the path for a
blue chest. Jump down and have Majin turn the machine to where the
last guard is standing. You can make the jump from the pillar if
it's lined up or you can have Majin turn it while you're on it with
a little bit of finessing. Take out the guard and at night this is
where you will find the MS. Take the west path out to the next area.

38. Koonapipi Mines
Treasures: Stamina fruit, gold chest, 2 blue chests, MS,#29

Head into area to see there's another mask we need to take care of.
As you head in you'll see enemies to your right so lets take care of
them first. After head back to main path and on your left you will
see a big bluish crystal. Grab and have Majin ignite the bomb
conveniently lying near by, and place it at the bottom of the
crystal. When that's cleared away you'll see a lizard on the wall so
you know what to do. Flip the door switch then go back and join
Majin. Go around to the left and backstab the guard there. Have
Majin open the door, take out the guard, then climb the ladder on
your right for blue chest. Then have Majin boost you up to the
ladder to reach and destroy the mask. Head back out to climb the
large steps. Have Majin wait on the step with a small wooden
platform where you can see another crystal formation blocking a
ladder. Go up a bit more, grab a bomb, go back and have Majin ignite
it, toss at crystal. Then jump across and climb to reach the gold
chest with the Attendant's decorative sleeve. Head back up the steps
with Majin as high as he can go. If you look to the east at the top
you'll see a stamina fruit that's blocked by another crystal. There
are bombs here but Majin can't go any higher. So what you need to do
is have him wait close to the wall, grab a bomb, have him ignite it,
then immediately have him crouch and jump on him and on up to the
crystal. Not as hard as it sounds. Once you've blown away the
crystal, pluck and feed the fruit to Majin. Now go back up and to
your right ‘west’ there is a blue chest. Then at night, down the
long path heading north you'll find the MS. That's all for here so
lets head north to Four Windmills Hill.
39. Four Windmills Hill
Treasures: Fire fruit, 3 blue chests, MS,#30

Head into area to see yet another mask. Have Majin wait by the
entrance and run over to the ladder of the first raised walkway. Set
off the sprout by the archer then send him over the edge. Run down
to the end and open the blue chest. Call Majin then jump down and
take care of all the enemies there. Now aim the catapult at the
center raised platform with the remaining archer. Aim it at the
opposite end from the archer. Somehow he doesn't see you land so
sneak down and backstab him. If you jump down in the direction that
he was facing you will see a blue chest sitting right in the open
area there. To the far north of the catapult there is a wall of
posts you can go between to reach a blue chest. If you look up at
the corner in here you will see some catapult rocks up on a high
ledge. So aim the catapult at it and have Majin send you up. drop
down the rocks then take one to the catapult. To the east of the
catapult you can see a wall with 3 breakable sections of wall at the
top. If you aim the catapult at the center section you should be
able to take them all out, but one is good enough. Then have Majin
fire you over there and you'll land on a raised area above one of
those rodent enemies and next to a fire fruit and some bomb barrels.
Pluck the fruit then lay it down. Take a barrel and drop it close to
the rodent. While he's stunned grab the fruit and jump down and
scurry up the steps there to take it to Majin. At night the MS can
be found down with the big rodent so you may want to soften him up
with the barrels then take him out. So lets head back through the
mines and to,...

40. Tanay Mafta City
Treasures: Lightening fruit, 2 blue chests, MS,#31

As you enter this area you'll come a door that won't operate at the
moment, and to the left you'll see a conductor as well as a bunch of
enemies. I suggest luring the enemies out to Majin first, making
sure that the gold officer comes with them. As usual take care of
him first then the rest of them. Now climb the ladder right there
and toss down the conductor sitting on the roof, cause what better
place to keep a conductor then on the roof. Go down and place that
conductor halfway between the device and the nearest conductor. Have
Majin act on the first conductor then have him come through the
door. Now Piggyback up to the ladder on the center tower for a blue
chest. To the left of this tower(the northwest corner) between the 2
buildings you will find the MS at night. If you go through the
archway to the north and then hang a quick left you'll find a blue
chest just past a dark puddle. Exactly opposite of this you will see
an elevator with an inoperable switch. So head back inside and grab
that conductor. Take it down the lane between the 2 building on the
right ‘east’ side around the corner and place it so that Majin can
reach it with lightning and the current will reach the device. Once
the elevator is working have Majin go around then both of you head
up. For the 2 whippersnappers up here I would recommend just
knocking them off the edge with your thrust attack as it's so easy
for them to do the same to you. Pluck and feed the lightning fruit
to Majin. Now lets head back down and take care of those 2 WS's. All
done here, so let's head out the north exit.
41. Tu Kabinana Residence “part 1”
Treasures: gold chest, 2 blue chests, MS,#32

This area involves a little back and forth. Head north and after the
scene for the mask go right and around the corner to run into a
bunch of enemies. Take care of them but again you need to remove the
gold officer or he will just keep calling reinforcements. Once
they're all taken care of, head to the very end, look to your left
and you should see a blue chest. Head back to the beginning of this
area and have Majin wait somewhere he won't get hit by the archers
up above. Now head back to Mafta city and take the elevator back up.
If you look in the opposite direction of the raised walkways you
will see you can jump up to a hole there and back to the residence.
Because the other archer will see you, sneaking may not work. So
just run up and knock him off the wall. Use stone throw to hit the
sprout by the other archer and have Majin turn the center walkway
with the machine below. Sometimes the sprouts will actually knock
him down but either way you need to be rid of him. Once he's done,
turn the machine to reach the mask. After it's destroyed turn it
again till you can reach the gold chest for the Attendant's formal
cap. Jump down and in the room in the northwest corner at night you
will find the MS. There is a fruit in a dark puddle but we can't do
anything about it right now. So we need to head back to Mafta city
then take the main path on the west side of it way up to the save
pillar. Just past the save pillar you will find one of those
overgrown rodents so deal with him and then if you look on the right
hand side you will see a place where you can jump up to a blue
chest. There will be a second rodent a little further down if you
want to show him what's for too. That's all we can do here for now
so lets head all the way back to the first area we came to here,
Moonglow cave.

42. Crystal Palace - Courtyard
Treasures: gold chest, 2 blue chests, MS,#33

Once you get back to Moonglow cave take the north exit, save at
pillar then head through door. Have Majin wait by the door and jump
down to lower path. Follow it around to blue chest. Along the way
you'll see a scene showing you Majin's final type of Magic fruit.
Head back to Majin. Might as well head up to take care of some bad
guys. I would have Majin wait on the stairs going down to center
aisle, then lure the big guy and his crew up there so you don't get
caught in the dark puddles. Once they're done head up to the other
side ‘north’ where you can see a gold chest, ignore it for now. You
and Majin jump down to the lower large walkway here, then follow it
all the way around taking care of all the enemies along the way.
This will lead you to the purification fruit! Yay! Now we can take
care of all those nasty puddles among other things. So climb up to
the center then go round to that gold chest. Have Majin take care of
the dark puddle then open the chest for a Attendant's formal wear.
You can't get any further here because of the large crystals so
carefully walk along the narrow top of the raised stone wall until
you reach the section that crosses over to the area with a blue
chest. Finally, if you take the path down from where the
Purification fruit was, you'll see a stone section with the corner
knocked out of it creating a step up for you. The MS can be found on
top of this at night. Ok, Let's head into the next area. Head down
center path and through the door.
43. Crystal Palace - Interior
Treasures: Str fruit, gold chest, 2 blue chests, MS,#34

First have Majin clear the dark puddle in the middle then leave him
with the guys down below while you head up the staircase and take
care of the 2 archers. Once they're done go down and help Majin with
any left down there. Head up to the first landing on the stairs and
jump up or have Majin boost you up to higher ledge with blue chest.
Carry on up the stairs and turn right. Have Majin crystallize the
dark goo on the tall pillar, jump to it then on to the next 2 to
reach the high area with the gold chest. Open it for Darkness
gauntlets.
Head to next section. At night you can follow the path down and to
it's end on the right where you'll find the MS. Now if luck is with
you the next part will go easy, if not, well,... Head back up the
landing where you can see a bunch of tall pillars and beams over a
very large dark puddle. Have Majin crystallize the dark goo on the
top of the first pillar, jump to it then work your way around the
rest as fast as you can. If you move quick enough the archer will
miss you and you can jump to where the barrels are. If he hits you,
between the huge puddle of goo and the whippersnappers, you'll have
a very hard time getting out of there alive. If you don't make it,
retry until you get all the way across. once to the other side jump
down and go around to turn the crank and extend the bridge for
Majin. For some reason I could not get Majin to target the huge
puddle from this side so go back up to the first landing and target
it from there. He will now run “lumber?” to the other side and
crystallize the whole thing. quickly head in and take out all the
bad guys. Have Majin boost you up to the archer and take him out
too. You'll see a strength fruit from that perch so have Majin boost
you up to that as well. Finally have him act on the puddle around
the door crank, open the door and just past the door to the left you
will see some steps to climb up to the last blue chest. Save at the
pillar.

Note: If you feel you want to level up you team, or are after all
the trophies, the interior is a great place to spend some time in as
the enemies respawn just by going out then back in the door to the
courtyard. While this gets boring quickly, I do recommend spending
at least a little time doing so, as the end game enemies are quite
tough.

44. B'ue Crystal Cavern - Boss Fight “Ixtab”

So you're now fighting Ixtab, the queen. This fight can be very hard
or quite easy, depending on whether you know what to do. Like all
the rest, your new magic from the area is the key. When the fight
starts, position yourself on the opposite side of her from Majin.
Throw some stones at her and when she turns to repay you, hit act
and have Majin use purification on her backside. This will stun her
so immediately go around to her big glowing red rear end and start
whacking away. I found you can still get a few more shots in even
after it stops glowing, just don't stay too long. Again get yourself
opposite Majin and repeat the process. After the third time or so,
you'll get the cutscene and she'll scurry through the other door.
Use this time to heal your team then follow her. Your goal here is
to destroy the 3 black crystal growths around the edges. For the
first 2 stay behind the protective walls while you have Majin bash
away on them ‘use act’ until they're disintegrated. If any dark
tentacles come up from the ground around you, slash away on them as
much as you can to restore Majin's magic. For the third, target it
for Majin then keep moving yourself as much as you can, so you don't
make an easy target. Again hit any tentacles for magic. Once the
third one is gone it's time to deal with the queen. Have Majin hit
her with purification then go in and smack her head as much as you
can. Repeat until you get the finishing move cutscene. Watch the
cutscenes then lets leave this disgusting place. Lets Head back to
Tu Kabinana Residence to get that one fruit we couldn't get before.
45. Tu Kabinana Residence “revisited”
Treasures: Purification Fruit

Make your way back to Mafta City then up to the Residence. Head over
to the fruit on the left and have Majin crystallize the puddle
through the fence. "More and more sparkly!" Now let's head back down
to Mafta City and take the long path north to the new area.

Note: When you get to the save pillar at the halfway point, this is
another excellent place to do some levelling up. Activate the pillar
and go to change outfit, then exit out and the Large rodent will re-
spawn. He is great for getting friendship points as well as using
all your magic finishing moves for those trophies. When you get
tired of this, head up to the door to,...

46. Loll'ur River
Treasures: Large gold chest, blue chest, MS,#35

Once through the door, head up to the Life Tree to heal then go left
to find a large treasure chest that Majin has to open. It is a dark
costume for Majin! So if you want to give Majin a meaner look,
activate the save pillar, go to change outfit, hit R2 and change it.
Hmm, somebody's in a bad mood. If you head across the bridge from
here you'll find a blue chest at the end on your left. Finally at
night you will find the final memory shard hidden to the side of the
other door. If you've been following my guide from the beginning you
should now have all 35 memory shards which will net you the Cloak of
the first King.

So you know, I have equipped the Helm of Darkness for the HP boost,
Gauntlets of Darkness for the great increase in attack, and the
bandit's costume to increase friendship crystals. I will probably
change out the bandit armor near end of game, but not yet.

Again, if you've been following my guide you should now have all
treasures that can be found before entering the castle and there
really is nothing else until we go there. But, I will say once more,
take some time to level up and work on your special finishing moves.
The large rodent by the save pillar in the last area is very good
for fast levelling, but also why not go and re-explore this grand
world you have conquered. You'll find all kinds of enemies to fight
including leeches which will give you tons of friendship crystals.
When you are all done I'll be waiting by the gate to the castle. Go
on, off with you.
47. Arkela Castle - Courtyard
Treasures: Purification fruit, large gold chest, 3 blue chests

Head through the door and go to the right until the room of
transport is registered on your map. If you're after all the
trophies or having difficulties here, you'll want this active. Then
go straight back and through the other door. Have Majin wait in the
hallway and run up the stairs on your left to take care of the
archer there. Call in Majin and jump down to take care of the
enemies below. Head to far end of room and up platform to have Majin
open the large chest for the Guardian outfit. Nice! Head back up to
where the archer was and jump up onto the higher platforms to work
your way around to the blue chest. On through the next door. Once
in, head up and tackle the gold officer, while Majin starts in on
the rest below. Try to knock the officer down below with the rest.
I'm sure you've figured out by now, but using the purification magic
on mid to small size enemies is extremely swift and deadly. Once
they're taken care of you'll see a spot right next to the door we
just came through to piggyback up for a blue chest. Now through the
next archway you can see a purification fruit for Majin so go ahead
and pluck it for him. More Sparkly! Then go all the way around this
structure to find a 3rd blue chest. That's everything in this area
so let's head to the next.

48. Arkela Castle - Hall
Treasures: 2 Blue chests

At this point you will start to see a spike in the difficulty. Your
first goal here is to take care of the two archers. While still in
the hallway target the first with wind. As you head in, a scene will
show you a dark fountain. Until you stop it enemies will keep
coming. Majin will head up the back walkway to blow off the archer
so follow him up and deal with the enemies that follow you until you
can target the other archer. Once they're both down, kill them then
head up the stairs leading behind the fountain having Majin come
with you. You must turn the crank there to stop the fountain. Once
you stop the fountain a new enemy will appear, a large head with two
masks. Majin can only damage one mask which of course is the
opposite side from the one attacking him, plus you'll still have a
few shield enemies pestering both of you. I found using lightning on
the small guys allowed me to quickly take out all the shield guys
but it also stunned the mask head and Majin was able to smack him
enough for us to do our finish attack. If it doesn't you need to
keep hitting the opposite side from Majin until it turns to face you
and Majin can hit it. After they're all taken care of, you'll find a
blue chest where the fountain was, and another up at the end of the
back walkway where Majin blew the archers down. Next room. As you
head down the long hallway you will see an odd scene. Go to pillar
and save.
49. Arkela Castle - Main Tower
Treasures: 2 blue chests

Have Majin wait in the hall then crouch through the hole in the
wall, climb ladder, turn the crank. One down, three to go. I suggest
ringing the bell to call monkeys, take advantage of the sprouts and
dispose of them. It will not be permanent but it will make the main
room a little easier. Go back through the hole then take Majin into
the main room and go left. Another two mask head. Again use
lightning or purification to clear away the small fry and take care
of the head. Once he's done, piggyback up onto the raised area, turn
crank and open blue chest. Back to main area. You need to open the
door but he won't do it until all the monkeys are gone. As soon as
you've killed them, have him open the door, as they will re-spawn
pretty quickly. Take out the giant rodent then climb the ladder here
to stop the third fountain and grab chest. Go around to the only
remaining area, climb the ladder and turn crank. On to next room.

50. Arkela Castle - Grand Staircase
Treasures: Purification fruit, gold chest, 2 blue chests.

As you travel down the hall you will see another odd cutscene. Save,
grab a flower if you need one, then head in and take care of the
enemies on the ground in front of you. Then go and grab the last
purification fruit for Majin. Yay! Completely maxed. Now on up to
the second level and take care of old two face. Once he's done, go
up to the next level and work your way around to first crank, clear
away the enemies until you can get a chance to turn the crank. Open
the blue chest then head down to the second fountain. Clear enemies
and turn the crank. Open the gold chest for the Armor of Darkness.
If you've been following along with me you should get 2 trophies
here. Head through door to save pillar. I equipped the full darkness
set so I now have raised health, strength and protection from all
enemies. My Tepeu is level 27 and friendship is 14. Friendship
should probably be a little higher but it's acceptable. Max levels
are 31 and 21 respectively so you know. If you've been following my
guide you should have almost all of the trophies. The only ones that
will be left are ones that require a high volume of fights to reach
a certain number of kills, or kills with a type of magic, that sort
of thing. You can check the gamefaq cheats section to see what
you're missing. So this is it. Through this door is the final
battle. So you can either head back for more achievements, or follow
me in to rid this world of the darkness once and for all.
51. Arkela Castle - Chapel “Final battle”

After the cutscenes your task is to turn the crank with circle and
lower Toci to where you can reach her. The key to this part is
taking advantage of the purple bomb sprouts scattered around the
area so you take as little damage as possible. The little guys are
fairly easy to kill but you want to trap Majin with a bomb sprout so
you you can get time to turn the crank. He can even sometimes take
care of the little guys for you with his magic! Keep your distance
and trap him when you can. When you get the platform down far enough
you will then need to jump up to the platform and break the seals
around the crystal. Again the way to do this is to trap Majin with
the sprouts so you have time to really whack away at the seals. Once
Toci is released you now have to break the mask on Majin. Once more
lure him close to a sprout, set it off then go in and hit him. Try
to jump and hit the mask as much as you can. If you take your time
and pick your spots you can do all of this without taking a lot of
damage. Once the mask is off we move to stage two.

Fortunately your life is completely healed at the start of this
part. First thing to do is to destroy the greenish hands on each
side, keep Majin with you as best as possible and quickly get rid of
any of the big fire balls that drain his HP. The real key to this
battle is keeping an eye on Majin's health and healing him when
necessary. Once you destroy a hand have Majin purify the hole so it
can't come out again. Once you've taken care of both go and bang
away at his head. Once you do a circle attack the hands will come
back so as before, destroy them, then seal the holes with
purification. They will sometimes have a gold crystal on them and
you need to remove those as he won't take any damage until you do.
Again attack the head with Majin till you get another circle attack.
This time the 4 hands will come out with gold crystals on them that
drain Majin's HP. Destroy them then go and destroy the 2 hands by
his head he's using to hold himself up. Now attack his head until
you get the big finish attack and he's done! Watch the cutscenes and
bath in the glory of a job well done!

There is no new game plus, but you can go back to your save just
before the final battle and chase after the remaining achievements
if you wish.

So we've reached the end of the road. I hope you enjoyed this trip
as much as I did and that my guide was useful to you on that trip.
Cheers!

Karmikazzee.
