Hint:
Powerful attack:
When doing the Square(3) combo, press the buttons slowly and the
third attack will be a ground piercing attack that you can follow up with an
uppercut by pressing Square. If you hold Square on the third
hit, Vexx will power up for a more powerful attack, and his uppercut will
send him into the air.
Hint:
Super move:
Use combos to increase the super move meter in the top right corner. After
it is flashing, press R1 to execute a super move.
Hint:
Faster consecutive long jumps:
Press L1 + X, and as soon as Vexx lands from the long jump,
press L1 + X again to go faster.
Hint:
Everlasting slash:
To perform this move, continuously press Square.
Hint:
Alternate ending:
Go to Timberdale. Go to the sundial. Set it to either of the golden dots
(sunrise or sunset). Quickly get back to the hub and enter the Shadowrealm.
The ending sequence will be different, with Vexx will flipping off Yabu.
Hint:
Extra lives:
On occasion, if you knock an enemy off into a bottomless pit or well, the
combo counter in the right hand corner will continue to grow. If this
happens, go around and do a half-decent air juggle to receive extra lives.
It is possible to score 2,500 and get over 10 extra lives.
Hint:
Quick save:
If you found a diary page or an extra life and need a quick way to save but
cannot find a new heart, do not collect a heart you previously acquired.
Instead, go to Darby's house on Timberdale. Teleport into the picture and
pick up the Crimson Key. This works with the Air Suit, but Timberdale is
quicker.
Hint:
Cow Suit:
In Timber Dale, there is a hut hidden behind trees. The trees are metallic,
and if you uppercut them, they will clang. if you go behind them and into
the hut, there will be a cow. Uppercut it and you will have the Cow Suit.
Note: When you uppercut the five metal trees, you will also have a choice of
either the Cow Suit, Fly Suit, or Rock Suit.
Hint:
Fly Suit:
In Dragons Reach (level 2), climb up the dragon's tail. Continue climbing
until you reach the yellow poles on the slippery ground. Climb the first and
jump to the others. On the last one, turn to your left and try to do a long
jump to a small platform with a jump pad on it. You will be rocketed over to
the plateau. Walk around it. The fly suit is on the other side. Note that
the jump to the jump pad may require some adjustments on your part.
Hint:
Rock Suit:
After the Talon's tutorial, when the blind guy wakes you up, jump to the
column in the middle that has fire on it, but do not touch the fire. After
that, arrange yourself so that you are on the left side facing the exit. Hop
into the fire, and rocket yourself out to the left. Proceed towards the blue
rings. You will be teleported to the red tapestry. Climb to the top of it
and grab the red disk. Afterwards, jump off either side to exit the
tapestry.
Hint:
Pirate ship game in the below:
In the pirate ship game with the three pirates from the belly of the large
beast, it is easier to not try to change the colors of the squares yourself.
Instead, watch the board and let the cannonballs do the work for you.
Hint:
Sundial portal in Daggercrag:
In Daggercrag, once you adjust the sundial, go to the base with the ring
full of enemies. Climb the second pole to the right and you should find a
sundial portal. Go through it if you see another world in it. Note: Be
careful, as this stage is extremely tricky.
Hint:
Extra life in Tempest Peak Manor: Go to the table with the goblets of red and green goo. Get on top
of the one with the red goo and wooden spoon. Climb up the handle of the
wooden spoon. Jump up and down a few times on the end of the spoon and red
goo will pop out, revealing an extra life.
In Tempest Peak Manor, go to
the sofa/couch. Note: Kill everything on the couch first. Climb the right
side and go to the left over the top of the couch and down to the left arm.
There is a Hobbletrod there. Let it attach to you and move it towards the
left edge of the arm. Shake him loose and he should fall to the cushions
below. Quickly jump to it and perform Ground Pound (jump, then press L1
in mid air). Keep this up and do not use your talons to attack. Your attack
points will continue to climb, and each hit gives you more each time. During
this, extra lives will start to appear every ten to fifteen hits.
Hint:
Soul Jars in Citadel of Shadows: The best order to get the Soul Jars in the Citadel of Shadows is
as follows. Take the right route (heart #3) and collect the Soul Jars along
there. After the spinning thing, defeat the Blast Bugs and walk to the
top-left corner of the platform. If you look down, you will see a small
platform leading to the first heart in the level. If you time your pulse
jump and ground pound correctly, you can dodge the spinning ring and land on
the platform unharmed. From there, go back towards the Rift Hub Portal,
collecting the Soul Jars as you travel. Then, go back up the ramp and take
the left path (heart #2). Skip the first Soul Jar that you see. Instead,
continue until you get to the Soul Jar with the Hulks and Shadowminions
under it. Get that (jump on a enemy and do a boost jump with a kick), then
make your way back down, collecting the last Soul Jar on the way.
Hint:
Enter Dragonreach Sandcastle: Inside of the castle in Timberdale, get to the part with the long
narrow pathways in the air. Once you get to the jumping part, drop off the
edge to land on a small platform. Jump to the other platform and do a
pulse-jump below the shiny spot. You should hit a button that will open a
door underneath the normal path. You can dangle from the bottom of the path
and climb through the door. You will then be inside the Dragonreach
Sandcastle.
Hint:
Defeating Sumo: Do jump moves or wait for Sumo to do a racer crash and dodge it,
Slice his back and he will fall off the circle to his doom.
Hint:
Defeating Yabu: After you enter the Shadow Realm and defeat the Shadow wraiths.
Yabu will transform into a spider demon. He is very dangerous in this form.
After he does the double punch, his face will be at the ground. Slash your
talons at his face, then run under his legs while he is dizzy. Then, do an
uppercut to his rear. He will flip over on his back. Go to his rear again
and do a ground smash, then rapidly circle his body doing the long jump.
Repeat this until he is defeated.
When you enter the Shadow
Realm, Yabu will send a wave of Shadow Wraiths. These Shadow Wraiths are
stronger than normal and will require four or five hits to kill. Not all of
them have balls of health. Charge at them, then do an uppercut. While in the
air, do a ground smash. When you continue falling, do a flare kick before
you hit the ground. You will not get hurt if Wraiths jump at you while you
are doing a flare kick. Note: Yabu will send two waves of normal Wraiths. If
you defeat all of them, Yabu will send four waves of fireballs. There will
be rings of fire on the ground where the fireballs will hit. If you act
quickly, the fireballs will miss. Yabu will put the challenges together so
that you must dodge the fireballs and defeat the shadow wraiths at the same
time.
After you defeat Yabu in his
spider form, you will take the power of his red amlet on his chest. He will
send his last wave of Shadow Wraiths. The Wraiths will heal your wounds
after the spider battle after you kill them. After you defeat all the
Wraiths, Yabu will shoot fireballs toward you, instead of shooting them in
the sky. Use your talons to fire them back toward the tower and break it
down. Note: The ground in front of the tower will collapse along with the
tower. Yabu will keep building towers until he runs out of ground, then he
will be on the ground to shoot fireballs. Note: He may teleport behind you
and hit you once. If timed correctly, you will hit the fireball toward Yabu
and hit him. An ending sequence will automatically begin after you hit him,
and Yabu will say his last words.
Hint:
Avoid falling damage: When falling from a great height and about to take damage,
perform the Ground Pound attack just before you hit the ground. If timed
correctly, it will break your fall and you will not sustain any damage.
