Cheapskates R' Us
When buying something at the shop, the shopkeeper will display the price on a scarab scroll. Move the joystick up and down to show what you will pay. But in the end the shopkeeper can tell if you are a cheapskate. This is very useful for buying maps which cost from 5-10 scarabs.

Cheap Tip
Throughout the game if you press start, your faithful companion Slippy will give you information that will get you to the next part of the game. Work inside because of the transmission. If you can't get past a certain part, you can always ask Slippy for help. (Sorry about my last code, I sorta screwed it up.)

Rainbow Tricky
If you think Tricky's colors are plain and boring then try this tip. Once you have a scarab bag that can hold 20; go to the store and buy Tricky's ball. Once you have done that leave the store, go to your inventory, and select the ball. Once you've done that you can throw the ball and play fetch. Once you've done it enough he will change colors (green, blue, purple, yellow, ect.).

Get Rid Of Boss Galdon
After transporting on the red Warpstone in Darkice Mines, you'll be in a large chamber with a frozen dinosaur in the center. Use Tricky's Flame Command to melt him. You'll see him swallow the first Spellstone, and you'll see how big he is. When he's not turning around, run around and hit Galdon on the tail three times. He'll get mad and swallow you. Hit his epiglotis (with the Spellstone in it) several times, then he'll spit you out. His new weak spot is his chest. Wait until his chest opens, then shoot it with the Fire Blaster three times. He'll swallow you again and you hit the Spellstone again. Galdon will spit you into the air (with the Stone), and he'll fall down dead. You'll have the Spellstone.

Big, Ugly Sharpclaw
Upon entering Cape Claw for the first time, be prepared for the huge bluegreen Sharpclaw that guard there. Their axes do a lot of damage, and they can block your attack, even when they're down. Hold the R Button to block their first (and sometimes second) attack, then rush them. They require about 2 more hits than a regular Sharpclaw to be defeated.

Volcano Force Point Part Deux
After you've defeated the giant RedEye King, you of course must return your shiny new SpellStone to the Volcano Force Point. It's pretty straightforward until you ride the lift up to a path leading to a locked door. If you want to get through (which I'm sure you do), climb up the ladder near the lift. You'll notice some different-colored flames along the upper walkway. In order to unlock the door, you must extinguish the flames using your Ice Blaster - but this is trickier than it may seem, as you have to extinguish the colors in a specific order. Put out the blue one first, then green, then red, then yellow. The door will then unlock and you can proceed with the game.

When you are in ThornTail Hollow go to the shop. Then go down to the mini-game area but don't go in. When you are facing the curtain to the entrance of the mini-game room go backwards through the dark brown part of the wall and a large rock will be there. Lift it and get 30 Scarabs.

Krozoa Shrine 3: Fear Test
Do not take your eyes off the meter for any reason. Since you cannot pause during that test, it is important you watch the bar the entire time.
