  The Walkthrough
  ===============

  Chapter 1: The Way of the Ninja

  - Two Ninjas will drop after the introduction. One ahead of Ryu, the other
    behind him.

  - Loot the Corpse of the Ninja Ryu killed in the introduction to obtain an
    Elixir of Spiritual Life.

  - Open the Chest near the cliffside at the bottom of the hill to obtain an
    Elixir of Spiritual Life.

  - Ascend the hill, then climb the cliff until you reach a Chest that holds
    an Elixir of Spiritual Life.

  - Climb the next cliff, then proceed up the branch to the upper ledge. Two
    more Ninjas await for Ryu here.

  - Wallride the cliffside to the Chest on a nearby ledge that holds a Great
    Spirit Elixir.

  - Jump towards the branch, then jump into the passage nearby. Follow it to
    a spot where the path looks unreachable, then perform a Flying Bird Flip
    to reach it.

  - Two Ninjas will emerge as you proceed down the path. Kill them, then wall-
    jump to the base of the Ninja Fortress.

  - After you have defeated the two Ninjas at the base of the Ninja Fortress,
    proceed inside. Enter through the door, where three more Ninjas await.

  - Open a Chest to obtain a Map of the Ninja Fortress.

  - Several Ninjas await in the next room! When you're ready, proceed into a
    hidden passage via the dark-colored wall.

  - Go into the next room, then proceed away from the Armor Suit. Defeat the
    three Ninjas, then obtain the two Elixirs of Spiritual Life. Continue up
    the stairs into the next room.

  - There are two visible Chests in the room. One has a Lives of the Visible
    Gods, while the other holds a Technique Scroll: Flying Swallow.

  - Several Ninjas await in the next room! When you're ready, proceed into a
    thin window to begin the battle. After the battle, drop into the trap
    door to proceed into the Storage House. Do not do this until the battle
    has concluded.

    Note: You are now introduced to the White Ninja, a much more intelligent
          and versitile Ninja.

  - There's a Chest behind the nearby Urns that holds a Great Spirit Elixir.

  - Many of the Bats hold Health Orbs vital to restoring your Health. You'll
    want to reserve those Spirit Elixirs for the Boss.

  - Open the Chest by the two braziers to loot a Fangs of the Samurai.

  - Follow the path to a wooden walkway, defeat the two Ninjas, then proceed
    back into the Ninjas Fortress.

  - Open the Chest to receive the Talisman of Rebirt, then drop back down to
    the room below.

  - Return to the Armor Suit in the previous room. After you've received the
    Courage Key from the Armor Suit, defeat the three Ninjas, then return to
    the room directly above the Storage Facility.

  - There is a hidden passage right next to the trap door. Strike the poster
    on the window with your Dragon Sword to reveal the passage into the next
    room.

  - Save your Game.

  - Head upstairs, then through the door where two White Ninjas await. After
    you have defeated them, unlock the door with your Courage Key, then head
    into the next room.

  - Several White Ninjas await in this room! After you have defeated them, a
    door to the Boss, Murai will open.

   Boss Battle: Murai

   The developers of Ninja Gaiden: Sigma throw you immediately into the deep
   end with a very difficult Boss Battle. Unlike the demo, you won't have
   two Ninpos at your disposal.

   The way I did the battle was I bounced off a wall, hit Murai, then jumped
   back and ran away. Block his regular attacks too, but do not stand close
   to him for too long, as he will break your Guard with a Grab Attack which
   depletes quite a bit of your health.

   Charging your weapon doesn't work because he will either Guard or Counter
   with an attack of his own. You'd only be wasting time.

   Do not let Murai back you into a corner because then he will take a brief,
   but painful advantage of it. Use the wall to your advantage and play this
   battle defensively. You just need to bring him down to 25% Health.

   ---

   Chapter Two: The Hayabusa Ninja Village

   - Pick up the Elixir of Spiritual Life before you leave Murai's Room.

   - Return to the base of the mountain where you began with Ninja Gaiden.

   - Go through the door at the bottom of the Valley of Shadows. Once you've
     defeated the Bats, interact with the Alter to receive the Art of the
     Fire Wheels. Drop into the mine below. Proceed onward down the path to
     the cliffside.

   - Use the wall to your left to reach the ledge which holds the Chest. The
     Chest holds a Smoke Bomb.

   - Three Ninjas will immediately attack Ryu. Following the battle, proceed
     down the path until you reach a pond.

   - Several Ninjas will attack you when you have passed the pond. Charge up
     your Dragon Sword to defeat the initial wave.

   - Ascend the ladder to reach a Chest that holds a Map of Hayabusa Village.
     Drop back down, then proceed down the path to a river.

   - There is a Chest at the base of the waterfall which holds a Life of the
     Gods.

   - Locate a small wooden platform at the base of the waterfall. Climb onto
     it, then proceed upwards to reach the Save Point.

   - Open the Chest by the Save Point to receive an Elixir of Spiritual Life.

   - A new Ninja will be introduced in Hayabusa Village. The Ninja Mages may
     hit like a truck, but their Health is very low. Once you have defeated
     these Ninjas, proceed down the path, past the Hayabusa Corpse. There is
     a Statue Head next to it used to receive a Life of the Gods.

   - There's three Statues near where you came into the village. Placing the
     Statue Head there will reward you with the Life of the Gods I addressed
     above.

   - Opposite of where you looted the Life of the Gods is a path which leads
     to a Hayabusa Corpse. Examine it to receive an Elixir of Spiritual Life.

   - There's an alleyway on the left side of Hayabusa Village, just prior to
     where you looted the Statue Head. Four wooden boards will let you reach
     the upper window, leading Ryu to Ayane.

   - After you've received the Bow, drop into the room below, loot the Devil
     Way Elixir and the Elixir of Spiritual Life, then proceed into the door.

   - There's a Blacksmith in the Supply Room who will sell you necessities.

   - Several Ninjas await outside the Supply Room! Defeat them, then proceed
     down the path to a large region of Hayabusa Village. What begins isn't
     a Boss Battle, but a new type of Ninja. These Steeded Ninjas attack via
     both Ranged and Melee, but aren't too difficult to defeat.

   - You may loot Arrows from a nearby Corpse outside of the Supply Room. It
     makes a perfect opportunity to try out your new Bow!

   - There's a Save Point and a Blacksmith past the woodpile nearby. You can
     also loot the Ninja to receive a Great Spirit Elixir. Cross the bridge
     to begin the next Boss Battle.

   ---

   Boss Battle: Masakado

   This battle may become a little difficult, basically because of the Mages.
   It's best to disregard them because it will make the battle a lot less
   difficult than it needs to be. However, those of you who rely more on the
   Ninpo Skill, the Mages will often drop red orbs that will replenish your
   Ninpo Bar.

   The idea is that you want to remain behind Masakado. When his horse rears
   itself into the air, that will be your cue to attack. Keep behind him and
   you won't have a problem. If you're in front of Masakado, move out of his
   path quickly before he impales you.

   ---

   - After you've defeated Masakado, proceed into the door to reach the Save
     Point.

   - There is a Chest beyond the Save Point, near the burning building. Open
     it to receive a Great Spirit Elixir. 

   - Several Ninjas and Mages await nearby! Once they've been defeated, head
     into the burning building. There's a wall which can be destroyed in the
     hallway to your left.

   - Defeat the Ninjas, then continue through the red door to begin the next
     Boss Battle.

   ---

   Boss Battle: Doku

   Not much of a Battle, more like a massacre. Doku will kick you ass harder
   than Fight Night. If you do manage to defeat Doku, Mission Mode will be
   unlocked.

   As soon as the battle has concluded, Chapter 2 will be complete.

   ---

   Chapter Three: Skies of Vengeance

   - Pick up the Elixir of the Devil Way.

   - Acces the Save Point.

   - Exit into the Living Quarters

   - Proceed into the room directly across the hallway.

   - Pick up the Elixir of Spiritual Life.

   - Go back into the Living Quarters.

   - Proceed down the hallway to the next room on your right. Open the Chest
     to receive an Elixir of Spiritual Life.

   - Enter into the room directly across the hallway. Open the Chest to loot
     the Airship Map.

   - Attempt to leave the room, defeat the Guards, then return back into the
     Living Quarters.

   - Kill the Guards to loot the Wing Key, then proceed into the nearby door.

   - Proceed into the door to the left of the middle one. Open the Chest for
     a Life of the Gods.

   - Return to the previous room.

   - Enter the door to the right of the large door in the middle of the room.
     This will lead you into various smaller rooms, bringing you over to the
     Crew Compartment.

   - Unlock the door to your left, but do not proceed through.

   - Enter through the door across the hallway, then descend the elevator.

   - Proceed through the hallway, then down the elevator on the other side.

   - In the next room, defeat all the Guards, then pick up the ID Card.

   - Enter into a nearby door to locate a Treasure Chest. Open it to receive
     the Dragon's Claw & Tiger's Fang.

   - Backtrack to the Living Quarters. (Optional)

   - Unlock the door in the Living Quarters with your ID Card. Head into the
     next room and be prepared to battle what may seem like hundreds of
     Guards. Unfortunately, I do not know what happens when you complete the
     battle.

   - Go back to the Main Deck.

   - Beneath the Main Deck is a Save Point, including two locked doors. Open
     the locked door to the left of the Save Point, proceed into the Middle
     Cabin, loot the Arrows from the large box, then locate the Gate Control
     by the window.

   - Don't operate the Gate Control until you have destroyed the inflammible
     barrels.

   - Once you've accessed the Gate Control, you must defeat the Guards.

   - Lower the Gate and defeat the Guards in the distance with your Bow.

   - Jump onto the rail, then proceed across to the Aft Cabin.

   - Jump through the weakened window to the inside of the Aft Cabin.

   - Strike the machine with your Sword to destroy it, then backtrack to the
     Crew Compartment. If you didn't hear an alarm, the machine didn't break.

   - Unlock the door in the Crew Compartment with your ID Card.

   - Several Guards await in the next room! Some of which must be killed via
     your Bow.

   - Run up the wall behind you to reach the upper platform. Kill any Guards
     that remain up here.

   - Go down the walkway and open the Chest to obtain a Great Spirit Elixir.
 
   - Use the side platforms to cross the large pit and defeat the Guards. Go
     
   - When it looks like you're at a dead-end, jump onto the pillar, then run
     up the tagged wall. When you have reached the peak of your Flying Bird
     Flip, jump to reach the nearby ledge.

   - Access the Save Point, then defeat the Guards to reveal a ladder behind
     them. Don't use it yet.

   - Walljump to reach a passage near the hatch. Follow the walkway to reach
     the Hatch Control, then drop down to the bottom of the ladder. Climb up
     through the hatch.

   ---

   Boss Battle: Dynamo

   It's Dr. Robotnik!

   The idea here is that you want to move around Dynamo in circles with your
   Dragon Sword, not the Dragon's Claw & Tiger's Fang. In addition, you want
   to keep Dynamo in the middle of the platform.

   Why circles? We don't want to be hit by the beam that he uses. Also, when
   Dynamo jumps, you need to too. If you're anywhere near him, move out of
   the way or his Arcane Explosion type attack will hit you hard... Yes, I
   play World of Warcraft...

   The best time to attack will be when you're behind him. Hit him a couple
   of times, then move before he counter-attacks. That's all you need to
   know to complete the battle.

   ---

   Chapter Four: Imperial City Infiltration

   - Defeat the Guards on the walkway below, then proceed down the path to a
     Plaza.

   - Continue down the left path in the Plaza, defeat the Guards, then enter
     through the large wooden door.

     to appear. Defeat them quickly, then head into the door with the large
     orange jewel.

   - Defeat the Guards, then proceed down the walkway to your left. Unlock a
     Chest to obtain Stone Tablet, then return back upstairs. Head left to a
     vase which holds the Lunar Staff.

   - Backtrack to where you looted the Stone Tablet. Follow that path to the
     Save Point, defeat the Guards with your Bow, then proceed down the road
     to your left.

   - Examine to Ninja Corpse to receive the Nunchaku.

   - Proceed down the opposite road to the Clock Town Plaza.

   - Locate a door with a blue border in the Clock Town Plaza. Go inside the
     door, defeat the Guards, then proceed to the top balcony.

   - Three vicious Ninjas will attack your when you reach the balcony. These
     Ninjas are very versitile! Open the Chest nearby to receive a Spirit of

     Okay...

   ---

   Chapter Five: The Fiend Hunter

   - Now you are playing Rachel, the Fiend Hunter. Save your Game, then head
     upstairs.

   - Go down the road to a large district, but do not head in there just yet.
     There's a passage to your right just before that with a Chest. Open the
     Chest to receive a Great Spirit Elixir.

   - Defeat the Guards in the Plaza, then proceed upstairs.

   - One of the Guards up here drops a Dworku Monastery Key. Return into the
     Plaza to initiate a battle. After that, use the Key on the locked door
     to proceed into the Monastery.

     Life, loot the nearby Ninja Corpse, then proceed inside.

   - Goto the Clocktower Plaza, then to the door with the Green Symbol. Once
     in the next part of town, return to where you looted the Diary from the
     Ninja Corpse. There's a Golden Scarab by the Corpse.

   - Go back to the Clockwork Plaza, then into the Yellow Symboled door.

   - Go upstairs on the opposite side of the Save Point. You will want to be
     about halfway up the second staircase. Turn toward the Ninja above you,
     jump, then run across the wall to reach the Ninja. Beat the snot out of
     him, defeat the two Ninjas that appear, shoot the third Ninja with your
     Bow, then perform the Flying Bird Flip to reach the wire above you. Now
     move across the wire to the other side, open the Chest to obtain a Life

   Boss Battle: Hydracubus

   Simple battle, hit the Boss with your Flying Swallow. Avoid the tentacles
   or they will hit you hard.

   Before you attack the Boss, you must chop off the tentacles. When they've
   been lopped off, the Boss will enter a weakend phase in which you just
   need to hit the Boss. Both tentacles will move around randomly, though it
   may be impossible to tell where they might land, the Boss isn't difficult
   to defeat.

   Just make sure that you have a bunch of Elixirs ready! Those tentacles do
   have a knockback, but will reward you with a blue Health Orb when they've
   been removed from Hydracubus.

   After you've taken Hydra's Health down to 50%, it will begin a new attack
   which drops large acid bubbles in random locations. These can be a little
   difficult to dodge.

   Remeber, the tentacles will respawn!

   Boss Battle: Skeletal Dragon

   First off, you drop, you die. Be careful.

   With that out of the way, you need to hit the dragon in the hand. Dodge the
   rocks it chucks at you, while jumping over it's tail when it attempts to
   sweep you off your feet.  Aside from that, just be ready to Block when the
   Boss tries to Claw or Bite.
 
   You mainly just need to hit it until it plummets to the bottom. Once you've
   defeated the Boss, the Chapter will be complete.

   Boss Battle: Gamov

   First off, you drop, you die. Be careful.

   It's not that difficult to beat him, you just need to block his bullets.

   First, keep him at a distance. If he moves close, assault him with a Jump
   Attack, jump out of his melee range, then Block his bullets.

   That's the best I can say... Part of the battle is simply luck that Gamov
   lets you hit him, as you won't have time to use your Ninpo Attacks or the
   Weapon Charge Attacks.
