Hints
Special attack
Press [Y] + [B] to unleash a super attack that will seriously hurt anyone.

Kill enemies quickly
To kill an enemy very fast, jump towards them fairly close using [A], then quickly tap [Y] immediately before you hit them. You should either throw them with the guillotine throw or slice their heads off. If they keep trying to get off the ground, tap [Y] again to pin them down or cut their head off. This is useful when you need some extra money, are almost dead, or when you just simply want to get through the section quickly because of frustration.

Finishing kill
While a foe is on the ground, walk up to it and press [Y]. This will instantly kill almost any foe.

Less battle damage
When you are grabbed by an enemy or a Boss such as the Dragon, mash the buttons quickly to escape without taking full damage.

Temporarily disable opponent
When facing an enemy, tap [A] repeatedly. You will disable the opponent temporarily. This allows you to attack them easier.

Defeating Alma
To defeat Alma (red greater fiend), equip the Vigorian Flails. It is recommended that they be completely leveled up. With the Vigorian Flail, you can still hurt Alma greatly even when she is in the air. Note: The shuriken, incendiary shuriken, and bow cannot hurt her; they just bounce off.

In order to defeat Alma's second form you must be patient and dodge her attacks as in the first form. Wait for her attack dodge, then attack with a three to five hit combo. Beware of her grapple attack, as it is more powerful than before.

Defeating Black Spider Ninjas
Jump off the wall and use the [X] attack to smash down on top off them. Use this repeatedly, but be careful of the incendiary shurikens that they throw.

Keep blocking, then keep countering and use the moves Guillotine Throw and Izura Drop. This will kill them in one shot, or hurt them badly.

Defeating Doku
Keep using the Flying Swallow attack ([A] towards the enemy, then [Y]). Every time you hit him, roll back, then jump. After that, try the Electric Ninpo attack. Then, repeat the process. If Doku keeps blocking the Flying Swallow attack, keep attacking him with it until it hits him. When he throws his sword, you can either jump over it, or roll and jump backwards. When he is doing his combo attack, attack him when he is at the last attack of his combo.

Defeating Ghost Fish
when you go near a group of Ghost Fish, jump into the fishes and press [X] to do a whirlwind attack. Repeat this process after you land and the fishes will not be able to touch you. If you do get caught, do an Ice Ninpo to get them off. This is especially useful on your way up the tower in Chapter 15.

Equip the Vigoorian Flails. When encountering Ghost Fish, they will pause before attacking you all at once. Wait until one moves then tap [X] a few times until they are dead. More will appear. Wait until their first movement to attack, or you will attack too early and will stop twirling the flails before they are all dead. It is possible to get a combo of 46 hits in the group of Ghost Fish next to the doorway that opens to the long staircase going down to the great bridge.

Defeating Lava Dragon
There is a way, when the Lava Dragon tries to bite you and holds his head for a few seconds while you can attack him, you can jump on top of his head and stand there briefly and attack him further. Do the homing jump ([A] + [X]), but this not happen consistently. Either way, whenever you can do it, it hurts him a lot. Also try doing a Ninpo attack on top of its head.

Defeating Muria
In Chapter 16 when you fight Muria with the Dark Dragon sword, the easiest way to defeat him is to use the Flying Swallow. When he uses the Dark Dragon technique, use an Art Of The Inferno to do some damage and not get hurt.

Defeating Red Dragons
When you get to the coliseum where you first fought Doku, there are sixty Red Dragons. Stand on one of the lower platforms and use the [Y] attack to kill them.

Defeating Spirit Doku
To defeat Doku the second time you fight him quickly and without getting hit, simply use the Ninpo attack "The Art Of The Inferno". If it is level 3, you can kill him in about six hits.

Defeating the Dragon Boss
To defeat him, try to level up your Lightning Ninpo to the maximum. Constantly run left or right. When he flaps his wings you will take a little block damage. The only way to hit him without getting in the lava is to hit his head when he lays it down momentarily. Try using the Flying Air Dash attack. He will try to grab you immediately afterwards; throw in a Ninpo just after that attack. If you need to use a Great Devil Elixer, it will be useful.

Defeating the field of flowers Boss
When Ryu enters the field of flowers then chants to make a stone circle holding him fly into the air, the Boss is easy to defeat if timed correctly. If you have maxed out Art Of The Inferno, use this to inflict severe damage on him. It might require between five or six hits for him to go down using this Ninpo.

Defeating the Giant Skull Spider Boss
When facing this Boss, make sure you have full projectile weapon ammunition and at least one extra Great Devil Elixir. When the Boss is just standing around in the lava, use the Incendiary Shurikens so they have a better chance of hitting. When he is walking around, use the Metal Arrows or the Explosive Arrows. Use the normal arrows when they are all that you have remaining. If he is still alive and walking around in the lava and you are out of ranged weapons, you can either try using Ninpo attacks, throw the Windmill Shuriken at him, or run out in the lava and try to fight him. When he attacks with the barrage of skeleton heads, you will get annihilated if you do not know what to do. To prevent this from happening, you can try to roll and jump around, but are probably going to get beat down. You can use the Vigoorian Flail and swing away. You can also try using a Ninpo attack, such as the Ice Shards. When the main head comes in to attack, be in a Ninpo attack so that it does not eat you, or try rolling and jumping to the side and he will miss. When it is almost dead, it jumps onto the rock with you and you can finish it off.

Defeating the first Holy Vigoor Emperor form
To defeat the first form of the Holy Vigoor Emperor without using Elixirs, Nipo, or projectile weapons, dodge his laser attack then attack him. Equipping the Armlet Of Sun and True Dragon Sword is recommended; attack him at the arms and chest with blade of Twin Headed Dragons or Dragon Tear and Blade Of Dragons Tail.

Defeating Spirit Piranha
These enemies can kill you very quickly and are extremely difficult to get away from. They tend to leave a high amount of red Ki orbs. Simply use the Fire Wheels Ninpo and run through them. You should get enough red orbs to replenish your Ki. Also, use the Bracelet that enhances the red orbs.

When at the core of the place, after each room you will go upstairs. Instead of burning up all your Ninpo attacks, equip the Vigorian Flails (maxed out) and the Armlet Of Tranquillity. Usually, you have to face 25 to 30 on each stairway. Wail away using the Vigoian Flail and you will be rewarded with a lot of Essence. Rest afterwards if needed to replenish the life bar. This also keeps you from using up all of your Spirit Elixirs.

Hint: Defeating the Vigorian Emperor's second form (Giant Skull Spider):
In order to defeat the final form of the Vigorian Emperor, you must have at least two Great Devil Elixirs and your projectiles maxed out. Equip the Ice Ninpo. Wait for him to start shooting out skulls at you. As soon as you see those fly out of him, hit your Ninpo attack. This will protect you and damage him at the same time. As soon as the skulls are done flying, he comes in for a grapple attack that causes instant death. If you time the Ninpo correctly, this will be blocked. After each Ninpo attack, hit him with either explosive shurikens or arrows, which will also inflict some damage. Keep alternating between these attacks. After about five times of doing this, he should be defeated.

Defeating Worms
You will fight several of these Worms. They can be cheap if you do not know what to do. Using the Whirlwind Shiruken is the key. Throw out a maximum of three when they appear from the holes, then block or dodge. Repeat this for an easy victory.

Defeating Zombies
Use the diving [Y] attack that takes off their head. It will not kill them, but they will be blind.

When facing the zombies under the cathedral and one of them happen to lunge at you and starts biting, press [X] + [A] as quickly as possible to kick it off and reduce the amount of damage that you receive.

Easy kills
An easy way to kill enemies such as foot soldiers is to equip the Dragon Sword and run up a wall with an enemy directly behind you. Hold [X] and if done correctly, you will chop off their head. Another way is to equip the Windmill Shurkin and bounce off their head so that they are stunned, You should chop off their heads. If they block your attack, try again.

Chapter 4: Hidden Scarab
When you go through the door with the three green eyes before going into the room to fight the black ninjas, go to Ryu's left. In the thing that looks like a bathtub full of water, you will find a Scarab.

Chapter 4: Windmill Shuriken and Xbox
Near Han's Bar in Chapter 4, there is an alley where you can find the Windmill Shuriken and a silver Xbox that completely refills your life and Ki. When you find it, start running towards the right-hand wall in the alley from a distance. Wallrun the first right wall then jump to the left wall and run it where it changes angles. Jump when you get to the end of the wall. The ledge directly across that wall at the top has the two items. If you need help getting onto the platform, when close in the air to getting on there, use the shuriken attack to get a little extra glide.

Chapter 7: Elixirs
Just before battling Alma, when you exit the monk's room and enter the cathedral room (top floor), you should see two catwalks leading to the big window towards the cathedral entrance on both sides of the room. There is a chest in each of them. They contain one Great Devil Elixir and one Great Spirit Elixir.

Chapter 8: Hidden Scarab
After you get the Strong Bow and hitting the green eye, go back to the ledge. Before jumping off the ledge do a wall run to Ryu's left. You should find a Scarab on the ledge.

Chapter 8: Helicopter
While you cannot defeat the helicopter that arrives at the end of Chapter 8, you can save yourself the trouble of endlessly dodging around and getting smacked around by its missiles. When the helicopter intermission sequence ends, just hold [Block]. For some reason if you do not move, the helicopter will not shoot its missiles at you. Just hold [Block] against the machine gun fire until the helicopter goes away. You will not receive any damage for blocking bullets.

Chapter 9: Hidden Scarab
After fighting the mini helicopters and you begin to go to the other side, you will notice a Scarab on top of one of the trains. Get that, but before entering the room to get the military base map and door card. Run straight up the door. On top of that little office, you will find a Scarab.

Chapter 10: Defeating the Boss
The Boss is similar to a big skeletal bird. He mainly uses a laser-type attack, and it is fairly simple to dodge. After dodging his attacks, quickly run up to him and position yourself between his legs.tUse The Art Of The Ice Storm Ninpo. This is very effective. He will either fly to the other end of the room or position himself on a platform above you. Just keep dodging any attack he throws your way. If he was on the platform, he will eventually come back down to the floor. Repeat this tactic as many times as needed. You should go into this battle with at least two Devil Elixirs. After doing this tactic a few times, he should be defeated.

Chapter 10: Life Of The Thousand Gods
After you defeat the two Worms, before you fight the Dragon Fiend, there is a hallway that generates a seemingly endless amount of the Pink Fiends. If you can last about five to ten minutes in there without leaving, the Fiends will stop spawning, and a chest will appear with a useful reward.

Chapter 16: Skip last platform jumping sequence
Once you begin Chapter 16, you must reach the Dark Dragon Blade. When you reach it, press [Start] continuously and you will skip the FMV sequence and also advance past the last platform jumping sequence (to reach Rachel). Note: This may not work the first time you see the FMV sequence.

Hidden Underground: Bridge
After fighting the Skeleton Dinosaur there is a long bridge. Do not pass through it or you will fall after it crumbles down. Instead, jump down after saving and later it will be available for saving or for buying items.

Unlocking underwater door
To unlock the underwater door, enter the combination "0917".

Unlocking the safe in the monk's room
To unlock the safe in the monk's room for the first time you need to enter this combination: press "Analog-Stick Left "until you reach "2", then press [X]. Press "Analog-stick Right" until "7", then press [X]. Press "Analog-stick Right" until "1", then press [X]. Press "Analog-stick Left" until "2", then press [X]. If done correctly, each time you press [X] a blue light should turn on, until you see four blue lights and the elevator to the underground cemetery opens. The combination is the Monk's birthday as he states in the diary (27th day on the 12th month). You can now get the Book Of The Eons from the safe.

When opening the monk's safe for Life Of The Gods, the combination is different. The code is left to 1, right to 4, left to 1, and right to 0.

After the flood drops you into the room with the elevator and the long tunnel you can swim through, take the underwater elevator up to the monk's room. Dispatch the three Spider Ninja and go to the safe. The new combination is right to 1, left to 4, right to 1, left to 0. If you also reread his diary, it will mention that you ripped him off and will then tell you that the new password is his daughter's birthday.

Absorbing Essence
It takes one Yellow Essence to do a medium ultimate attack and two to do the max ultimate attack . However, if you absorb one Red or Blue Essence, you can do an ultimate attack.

Easy Essence
Killing a foe without using [Y] will give you five times more Essence.

In Chapters 6 and 7, you will encounter the skeleton dino Boss. After you defeat him, climb down towards the new opening he made in the floor, but stop at the save location. Turn around with your Nunchakun and jump up to the bats. Once you reach them, kill no more than two to four bats and charge your super attack taking in two Essence Orbs. Then, unleash the attack and gather up to 2,000 Essence each time. To replenish the bats, jump back to the save point and repeat. The bats will not hurt you enough to kill, and will randomly give you health. Once you gather all the Essence desired, you can whatever desired. The maximum amount of Essence that can be held is 99,999.

In Chapter 6, in the cave before you encounter the skeleton dragon, you can get 99,999 Essence. Enter the bat cave and kill a few bats, then charge up and release your strong attack upon the rest of the bats. You will receive a substantial amount of Essence. Then, run back to the save point area which is a short distance away and continue to do this. If done enough times very quickly, each time hitting as much bats as you can with the attack, you can achieve 99,999 Essence in about 35 minutes. Then, save the game and slaughter the skeleton dragon.

The "Easy Essence" trick that can be done on Chapters 6 and 7 also works on Chapter 10. Go to the room in which you come down the ladder at the start of the level. It is also the room that leads into the first aqueduct.

In the Hayabusa Ninja Village before the fight with the Samurai Horsemen, there are three square targets just beside a dead ninja. Backtrack a little until you see a parallel wood with the three targets. Shoot the first two targets with the bow for easy Red and Yellow Essence.

Go to Han's bar in Tairon, just after the military invades the city in Chapter 8. There will be four soldiers that you can kill there. Use the Vigorian Flail to kill them all, using only the Cremator attack to kill each one. You will typically gain 1,500 to 2,000 Essence for killing all four of them. Enter Han's bar, then exit it to have them respawn. You can repeat the process as many times as desired. There is also a save point next to Han's bar. Save the game every few times you do this in case you die.

In Chapter 12 when you enter the room that you put the iron in the vat to make the cog, there is a little tunnel that bats regenerate in. Use the Amulet Of Benediction and you can get about 4,000 Essence each time. The Nunchaku or Vigorian Flails work best. Equip either one, then throw two shurikens to kill two bats and absorb the Essence.

There is a location in the Labyrinth of Vigor that can be used to get easy Essence. There is a tunnel just after a save point, Muramasa statue, and chest and just before a warp stone. Bats regenerate in the middle of this tunnel.

Once you begin on Chapter 10, you will start down the manhole where there is a save point. Ten bats will fly down. With your Dragon Sword. slice only once and you should kill two or three. Then, do not slice anymore. Instead, hold [Y] and do an Ultimate attack to kill the rest of them. You should usually get at least 1,500 Essence. Go back up the ladder then drop back down. Ten more bats should be there. Repeat the process until you get 99,999 Essence. You can keep going back to this location to refill on Essence throughout the rest of the game; once you hit Chapter 10, you never have to worry about running out of Essence again.

At Han's Bar (after getting the ticket), just enter and exit the building and there will be re-spawning enemies.

After exiting the aqueducts and when you go back to Tairon, there will be new enemies. They look like pink zombies with holes in their stomach and they shoot fireballs. When you go back to Tairon and to Han's Bar, you can enter and exit and they will respawn. Use the Inazuma Ninpo Magic on the first three you see then use your Ultimate Technique on the last (fourth) one and spawns (the fourth, spawns after you kill the first three). Then, after you use the Ultimate Technique it will give you an average of 1500 Essence. For better results, equip yourself with the Armlet of Benediction. You can also return to Han's Bar after you have obtained the True Dragon Sword and do the Ultimate Technique on the last enemy for even more Essence.

Immediately before entering the Aqueducts, after you have exited the train wreck walk around until the sewer pipes open up. After defeating the zombies, enter the sewer and you will be greeted by bats. After killing two of them, they will give you some Essence. Use the Essence for your ultimate technique (spin Analog-stick and hold [Y]). This attack will absorb all Essence and Ryu will make a tornado of attacks, giving you a log of Essence. Just climb the ladder and jump back down and they will respawn. Note: There is a save point in same area.

Just before you enter the Caverns, after swimming through the water in the waterfall there is a ledge. Jump down to find many bats they come in waves of three to four. After killing two of them, absorb (Ultimate Technique: Spin Analog-stick and hold [Y]), then repeat. You can climb up the ledge which you fell from and go back to save.

Upgrade your Viggorian Flails to level 2, then go to the Labyrinth. Go to the area where the "ghost piranhas" first appear. When using the flails, the piranhas will never touch you. Use you Ultimate Essence attack every chance you get. It only takes about two minutes to clean out the area, and you can get at least 10,000 Yellow Essence. There is also a save point and shop a short distance from this area.

Go to the place just before you fight the level 6 Boss(where you fought the flying bees). There will be a group of bats here. Kill two, then charge up an Ultimate technique and let it fly. It should kill the majority of the bats and you will get 1000 to 2000 Essence. Leave the room, go to the save point, then do it all over again.

In level 13 there will be Fiends that look like strange little guys who have skin right down to the bone. Go to the Great Bridge area and equip your Viggorian Flails. Note: They must be fully upgraded. Then, use the Cremator combo by holding [Forward] and tapping [X] repeatedly. You should get about thirty hits per opponent. It does not kill them -- do it again. You should be able to get about a 100 to 200 hit combo. Once they die you will get about 2,000 Essence because of the high combo. Leave the area, return, and repeat.

Throughout the game there are black crows. If you kill them (shooting with arrows is easiest), they will leave a blue health Essence behind.

Before you go into The Labyrinth, there is a save point and Shop Keeper. Save your game and proceed to unlock the gate at the entrance of the Labyrinth. At the entrance you' will encounter your first Ghost Piranha. Arm yourself with the Vigoorain Flail (full level) and kill them all with as many special attacks ([Y] to absorb Yellow Essence) as possible. Red Essence will also be awarded -- keep your Ki up. If you get swamped with Ghost Piranha, use the Inazuma Ninpo. Each time you do this, you can earn up to 7,000 Essence points. Then, go back and buy all the goods possible from the Shop Keeper. Save your progress as you go. Go back do this as many times as possible as you progress through the Core of The Imperial Palace. There are many Bosses to kill and you will need all the goods for the final showdown.

Easy Scarabs
After you defeat Marai, talk to him. He will show you a few moves. After that, get out of there. When you first fight the new troops, kill two, charge up, and take two of the Essence to do a powerful move. Then when you are at the village, go to the shop and buy a lot of items until you cannot buy anything further. The man will give you 50 Scarabs.

More items
Do not pass up the dead ninjas that are lying around. They have items on them.

Armlet Of Benediction
Give 15 Scarabs to Muramasa.

Armlet Of Fortune
Give 30 Scarabs to Muramasa.

Armlet Of Tranquillity
Give 40 Scarabs to Muramasa.

Dabilahro Sword
Give 20 Scarabs to Muramasa. Note: In successive mode you do not get it again until you give 43 Scarabs to Muramasa.

Dark Dragon Blade
Successfully complete the game under any difficulty setting. Start an already completed game and kill anything in your path. The more people that you kill, the more likely you will get the Dark Dragon Blade. When you reach the part to upgrade your Dragon Sword to the final level, jump into the open house and stay on the top level. The Dark Dragon Blade should now be into the ground, ready for you to unleash its power.

On your second time through the game or in successive play, in Chapter 13 when you return to the Hayabusa Village, go to the second floor of the building the Maramusa statue is in. The Dark Dragon Blade will be sitting there. Press [X] to pick it up. Note: You may use it as a weapon.

Dragon sword extra attacks
Quick Charge: Press [Y] after you have landed on the ground.

360 Turn: Press [X] after you have landed on the ground. You can do several combos starting with [X] after this blow.

Roll Attack Plus Violent Gale: Press [Right] (or another direction), [Right] + [X], [X]x3; level 2.

Roll Attack Plus Izuna Drop: Press [Right], [Right] + [X], [X], [Y], [X]x3, [Y]; level 2, you must have bought the Izuna Drop Scroll in order to do this attack.
Golden Scabbard

Healing Bracelet
Give 40 Scarabs to the shopkeeper for a healing bracelet that will slowly replenish your health. If you donot care about time, you can just stand in a no enemy area and just heal away.

Kitetsu Sword
After defeating the Armored Doku (the first time you fight Doku), he drops his sword. Before you leave the room, make sure to get his sword, the Kitetsu. This sword has moves different from the Dragon Sword, and it can also drain an enemy's life and restore yours by a small amount with this combo: [X]x2, [Right], [X]x8, [Y] . Also, the basic [Y] tap attack throws the sword similarly to how Doku threw it at you during the fight. The only drawback to this weapon is that when equipped, your life will slowly deplete. However, if you equip the Armlet Of Tranquillity, this will not happen because it restores your life at the same rate the Kitetsu drains it.

Life Of The Gods
Give one Scarab to Muramasa.

When you reach the broken bridge in Hayabusa Village, there is a chest behind some debris. To reach this, rapidly press [A] when you touch the water, and you will walk on it. You will be rewarded with a Life Of The Gods.

Sprit of the Devils
Give 10 Scarabs to Muramasa.

Unlabored Flawlessness
Upgrade the wooden sword completely to receive its true form, the Unlabored Flawlessness. It is a large weapon which you swing like the war hammer and Dabilahro, and has a very powerful Ki attack. This weapon makes Boss fights easy.

War Hammer
After defeating the flying female Boss that breaks through the stained glass, immediately when you start the next level run back into the doors. Go past all the debris and you can find the War Hammer in the area where you fought the Boss.

Windmill Shuruken
Go to Han's bar but do not go in the front of the club. There is an alley that has blue striped walls. Run on these blue stripes and it should lead you to a platform with an silver Xbox that replenishes your health and a metal plate that holds the Windmill Shuruken.

Obtaining rewards
Talk to the shopkeeper every time you see him. This is when he will collect your Golden Scarabs. He will give you rewards after every several Scarabs.

Rankings (demo version)
There are four rankings available in the demo version: Lesser Ninja, Greater Ninja, Head Ninja, and Master Ninja. To get a "Master Ninja" rank, you must complete the game in about six to seven minutes. For a "Head Ninja" rank, complete the game in about seven to eight minutes. For a "Greater Ninja" rank, complete the game in about eight to fifteen minutes. For a "Lesser Ninja" rank, complete the game in more than fifteen minutes. For best speed, do not try to kill every enemy. Run from all the non-mandatory enemies, defeat the boss with the big sword, using [Y] counters during his 3-hit combo.
