  • Thieves' Forest

    1. Attack the moving bush near the entrance to reveal a thief.
    2. Enjoy or detest the toilet humor of the woodland creatures as you continue paving your way through the hordes of arrow happy thieves.
    3. Hidden Item: Come back to this level when you have the Animal Orb Cardinal to find the Boomerang.
    4. Open the treasure chest along the way to find a Hammer. If you're a melee oriented character, the hammer is a good choice since it gives a bonus to strength at the price of one point of agility.
    5. When you reach the stream, you'll find the Animal Orb, Seahorse.
    6. Hidden Animal Orb: When you reach the area where you are ambushed by trolls (those creepy hairy black things), look for a cracked wall that seems to hold another troll behind it. Bomb this wall to obtain the Animal Orb aptly titled, Troll.
    7. The second treasure chest you find will contain a twig. It gives a bonus to agility, but I still wouldn't recommend using it as your agility stat is still too low right now to make arrows useful.
    8. Continue down the path and you'll find four bags of gold. Collect them fast before a little thieving monster comes and nabs them.
    9. Once you reach the mill you'll have to fight a miniboss.

  • BOSS: Large Troll

    1. There really isn't much to say about this guy. He can't actually damage you. All he does is run around and spawn a bunch of small trolls
    2. Ignore the small trolls and focus solely on the boss. He'll keep spawning more trolls until you kill him.
    3. Once he's finished, follow all of the animals into the mill.

  • Abandoned Mill

    1. This little challenge will put your reflexes to the test. You have to run away from the hulking monster on the left while avoiding obstacles that appear on your right.
    2. Position yourself in the middle of the level and keep your finger over the A button. Jump when you see a log; don't try to maneuver around it even if it's a small log.
    3. If you see a beam of light along the floor, head towards it to make it through the doorway.
    4. After you go through a doorway, make sure that you go back to the middle.
    5. If you manage to make it all the way through without getting hit by an obstacle, you will earn the Deer Trainer Achievement - 20g.

  • Rapids Ride

    1. The first thing you want to do is get a hold of something to stand on. A small fish, a shark (the face, not the fin), a wheel, etc.
    2. You'll be faced with lots of small bats that will be a huge annoyance if you don't take care of them. Since they only have 1 HP, use your A A combo to take a group of them out in one go.
    3. To take care of the big green fishes, just ride up to them and hit them with a melee combo if you're a melee oriented character. Otherwise just keep your distance and pelt them with arrows or magic. Watch out for their charge and jump attacks.
    4. You'll reach the end when you see a fish get pelted with a cannonball.

  • BOSS: Catfish

    1. TIP: If you're into using exploits and glitches to level up your character, there's a pretty big one involving this boss. Equip your boomerang and fully charge it. Throw the boomerang past the catfish and then move in front of it so that it hits the boss on the way back. The boomerang will get stuck and will continuously deal 1 damage, allowing you to rack up the experience. All you have to do now is hold up your shield and block the punches.
    2. Just hitting the Catfish normally will deal very little damage. For this reason, we need to open up its defenses a little bit.
    3. When the Catfish spits out a hairball, destroy it and then stand in front of the boat with your shield raised.
    4. The Catfish will come forward to try and punch you out. Fortunately, this gives the boat enough time to ready a cannonball and shoot the Catfish in the face.
    5. While the Catfish is stunned, use your aerial attacks to deal damage.
    6. When he goes underwater and exposes his hand, just keep moving to avoid getting whacked.
    7. Eventually the Catfish will switch up its tactics and will halfway submerge itself underwater. When it does this, it will swim from side to side in an attempt to ram you.
    8. When it swims to the right side, position yourself in front of the boat and move out of the way as it swims towards you. It will crash its head into the boat and deal damage to itself.
    9. Continue this process of avoid its attacks, breaking the hairball, letting the cannon shoot it and then attacking it while it's stunned to take the Catfish down.
    10. TIP: If you're into using exploits and glitches to level up your character, there's a pretty big one involving this boss. Equip your boomerang and fully charge it. Throw the boomerang past the catfish and then move in front of it so that it hits the boss on the way back. The boomerang will get stuck and will continuously deal 1 damage, allowing you to rack up the experience. All you have to do now is hold up your shield and block the punches.

  • Tall Grass Field

    1. TIP: If you're a magic oriented character and have been pooling your level up points into magic, you should have some fairly powerful magic by now. It should be about time to make magic your primary method of dispatching your enemies.
    2. Hidden Animal Orb: Come back to this level once you have the horn and blow it in front of the second hut you see. You'll receive the Animal Orb, Hawkster.
    3. After you get past the second wave of enemies, you'll fight against a shaman. The Shaman is basically a tougher version of the regular white bears that you've been fighting, only he will frequently utilize his tornado magic to run you down.
    4. He can be hit out of his tornado, so don't be afraid to take it head on.
    5. Once you finish him off, don't forget to grab his Animal Orb, Rammy. Rammy is a very useful Animal Orb at this point in the game as he will knock enemies down and give you some breathing room if you get surrounded.
    6. Two beefy bears will be your next obstacle. Again, ranged characters should deal with them from a distance. If you're a melee oriented fighter, use aerial attacks but make sure that you actually hit them before you get close enough for them to grab you.
    7. After you defeat all of the enemies, you'll be met by a rapid fire arrow launcher manned by two enemies. Just bring up your shield and march through the arrows until you get close enough to break the machines.
    8. Hidden Animal Orb: Come back to this level once you have bombs and a sandwich. After you destroy the arrow launchers you'll see a large rock protruding from the hill. Use the sandwich to remove the rock and then use the bombs to break the crack in the wall and find the Animal Orb, Burly Bear. Don't forget to grab the two treasure chests as well.
    9. Climb up the grassy part of the hill, defeat the last two enemies and enter the cave.

  • Pipistrello's Cave

    1. Kill the two waves of blobs to come face to face with the next boss.

  • BOSS: Pipistrello

    1. Pipistrello has two ways of attacking. When he flies he will try to drop turds on you which will not only deal a good amount of initial damage, but will also poison you.
    2. Once he lands, he will attempt to lick you, another attack that can do a large amount of damage to someone who doesn't have many points invested in defense.
    3. To defeat him, wait until he lands and use hit and run tactics to damage him while staying clear of getting hit by his tongue.
    4. You will also have to deal with the many bats that come out of the cave to your right. Since these guys only have 1 HP, use your A A combo to take them out.
    5. If the bats manage to grab hold of you, mash the X button to break free.
    6. Once Pipistrello is downed for good, pick up Bitey Bat, head right and collect all of the loot to end the level.

  • Flowery Field

    1. Use your A A combo to knock the bees down to the floor so you can take them out on solid ground.
    2. Once you get to the end, jump in a catapult and press X when the meter is full to unlock the achievement: Maximum Firepower - 10 g.
    3. Continue heading right until you reach a window that you can bust through to reach the next area.

  • Wedding Crash

    1. TIP: Before heading into this level, I recommend stocking up on some potions if you haven't already. The boss here is tough with attacks that are very hard to avoid.
    2. Many of the tables here hold food and gold. Break them down in order to get whatever is on top of them.
    3. Fight your way through the waves of lightsaber wielding baddies to reach the boss of the level.

  • BOSS: Periwinkle Knight

    1. This guy may look like just another enemy, but looks can be deceiving. He is incredibly fast, very damaging, and is resistant to being juggled.
    2. If you're a melee oriented fighter, your best bet is to go toe to toe and hope that your stats are high enough to take him.
    3. The main technique you need to watch out for is his spin attack. As soon as you see him start spinning, immediately pull up your shield.
    4. If you're a ranged specialist, it's not going to be much easier for you. His speed and unpredictability make it easy for him to close the distance between you and make it hard to hit him with your magic.
    5. When he goes to play the organ, simply avoid standing on the red circles to avoid the cannonballs.

  • Parade

    1. Pretty simple here. Just knock the enemies off the carriage as they jump on with simple combos and/or magic.
    2. Things get a little more tricky once that hairy black monster from the abandoned mill starts chasing you again.

  • BOSS: Forest Monster

    1. Melee oriented characters should jump out and start using their aerial X X X X Y combo on the eye of the beast. If you can keep the attack going, you'll take the monster down in no time.
    2. Magic and ranged oriented characters need to just remain on the carriage and fire projectiles at the monster.
    3. The only thing to watch out for is when the beast's eyes start to glow. If you don't deal damage to it quickly, it will unleash an unavoidable blast that will knock you off the carriage and deal some big damage.
    4. Once you reach the end of the line, enter the cave to move on to the next area.
