Avalanche  10GP	
���������
"Defeat an enemy as a snowball"

Go to the level called "Big Jump." Use your hat to slide down
the mountainside. When you see a stone lamp run into it and

The first time you will encounter one of these guys is in the
Earth Castle level. Use Futo and attack him normally twice.

to take control of a boar instead of a bear.


Botanist  30GP
��������

������������������������������
"Bring sunshine to all denizens of the graveyard"

After you obtain the spell "Sunrays" in the level "Haunted Forest,"
use it to defeat every single ghost in the graveyard. This includes
the ones that are on the way to the exit, not just the ones by the
shrine.


Eat My Dust  10GP
�����������
"Travel far in full gallop"

At first this achievement can get confusing because it's worded to
make you think you need to travel far in one full gallop. Once I 
realized it's like the acheivements for the other playable ninjas, 
it made things a lot easier. This is based on how many times you use
the skill, not whether or not you use it correctly in one try. 
Make sure your Ki bar is full and start walking forward with Tora.
Hold down Y and keep running forward until your ki runs out. I got 
the achievement during the 12th run.


Found Futo  10GP
����������	
"Find Futo"

You will find Futo as part of the prerequisite to leaving Ninja
Mountain. He will be at "Lookout Point," you will find him if you

Tora is found in "Grassy Hills" on the left path towards the 
charred areas in a small encampment. 


Hard Little Ninja  100GP
�����������������	
"Complete game on hard difficulty"

Pretty self explanatory, beat every level on hard. You can do
this through level select and replaying each level.


Little Ninja  50GP

No Conjurer of Cheap Tricks  20GP
���������������������������
"Expend 1500 Ki using Kuji magic"

a lot of time running around as an animallooking for various
ingredients and stuff. 


Now You See Me ...  40GP

"Defeat 100 enemies with stealth attack"

Also comes naturally as you progress through the game, provided

forest levels and stealth kill enemies until it unlocks.

Defeat the first boss of the game. Stand in one of the corners
of the room and he will swing and get his sword stuck in the

start a quicktime event that will take one third of his health.
Repeat two more times and you will defeat him.


Off You Go 20GP
����������
"Completed basic training"

This is received for following the storyline, as you have to
complete this in order to progress to further levels. It will
unlock when you talk to the grand master at the exit to Ninja
Village.


Pied Piper 10GP
����������
"Incite 50 enemies to dance"

Use Suzume's red orb attack by holding down Y and the enemies
around you will be charmed into dancing. Don't do this in an
area where there are archers as they will interrupt you.
Once you do this to fifty enemies, it will unlock.


Poker  10GP
�����
"Defeat 30 spearmen with the spear"

Use Kunoichi to defeat 30 spearmen. This is easy to do in 
concert with "Pied Piper" as you can charm the spearmen
into dancing with Suzume, then switch to Kunoichi quickly
and defeat them.


Restore Balance  40GP
���������������
"Defeat the Evil Samurai Warlord"

Complete the last boss level. The only way to damage him is
to use Kuji Magic against him, Meteor Storm being the most
useful. Cast it on him and one of the balls circling him will
break. Break all of the balls and you will defeat him. 
Once he has six balls left, he will start flying up in the air
and attacking you with Kuji Spells of his own. Just dodge them
and attack the smaller samurai to gain ki energy until he goes
back down to ground level.

Ninja Mountain
Leaving Home
A Distress Signal
Grassy Hills

You simply have to walk up to the Tengu at each one for it to
unlock, you do not have to talk to them.


Silent Assas... Ninja  50GP
���������������������
"Complete a level without being seen"

This is easily accomplished on the level "Great River Canyon." 
From the start go forward on the main path until you see the
waterfall. Jump off the ledge into the water and hug the right
wall as you boat over towards the three waterfalls. Jump up onto
the first rock and over onto the ground to the right that looks
like it has leaves on it. Wallrun up the ledges to find a cave
behind the waterfall. Go through the cave to the top of the
waterfall and go right across the stepping stones. Go to the 
very edge of the waterfall on the grass and fall down two
ledges. 

Jump across the gap and then stealth in the grass until you
come to a Tiger Lily. Go forward a couple of inches to just
before the path starts to widen and then IN STEALTH drop 
(NOT JUMP) off the left side into the water. Hug the right
wall while boating over to where the rock face juts out. 
Wait for the archer on the pier over to the left to turn 
around and start walking towards the shore then hold B to 
boat past quickly while still hugging the right wall. 
Make your way over to the save point on the far shore and
then finish out the level like normal because there are no
more enemies. 


Smell You Later  30GP
���������������
"Defeat Boss Windy Pants"

Dodge all of his attacks, but when he fans a single fart
cloud at you, run towards him and you will be prompted to
start a quicktime event that will take a third of his health.
Repeat this two times and you will defeat him, unlocking
the achievement.


Smooth Sailing  10GP
��������������
"Flawless Great River Canyon rafting"

This is accomplished by going down BOTH sets of rapids in
"Great River Canyon" without sustaining any damage to your
boat-hat. Damage can be seen as a red level marker on the
hat in the upper right corner of your screen. Paddling 
backwards to slow yourself down will help, but this is
a skill-based achievement you will have to work on.
It will allow you to skid off the top of rocks because this
doesn't cause damage to your hat. 


Stop! Futo Time!  20GP
����������������
"Use Futo in combat on all levels"

You must use Futo to defeat at least one enemy on every
level. If you use Futo to defeat the very large samurai
every time, you will only need to repeat the following 
levels that don't have one to unlock the achievement:

Ninja Mountain*
Leaving Home
Great River Canyon
A Distress Signal
Flooded Valley
Snowy Canyon

*You only have to repeat Ninja Mountain if you only attacked
one of the Tengu instead of actually defeating him.


Tengu Friend  40GP
������������
"Complete all Wandering Tengu quests"

Complete all of the Tengu quests in the game. They are on
the following levels:

Ninja Mountain- He is in the dojo and will teach you about 
your skills. His quest is to go find Futo and bring him back
to the dojo with you. Follow the trail of apples to find him.
I don't know if this one "counts" or not, but you have to do
it to progress in the game.

Leaving Home- He will be right at the beginning of the level
when you go towards the burning village. He wants you to
defeat the samurai on the other side of the bridge.

Leaving Home- He will be by the entrance to the Temple and he
wants you to bring him a Burdock Flower. There is one between
the first and second dog/lion statues on the right of the
path to the Temple.

A Distress Signal- He will be just before the bridge to the
smaller islands and he wants you to go visit the Temple on the
path to the right. My game could be glitchy, but he never gives
me a reward for doing this, he just keeps asking if I've done 
it yet, but I still got the achievement at the end.

Haunted Forest- He is off to the left from the start of the 
level and he wants an Ashida Spear. There is one on the ledge
above him at the very end next to the tree.

Grassy Hills- There is a Tengu in the caves who says something
about one of our friends being held captive, but I am not sure
if this is a quest or not. I just talk to him to be on the 
safe side.

Flooded Valley- He is at the start of the level and will ask
you to find his uncle at the Temple. Get in the water and
boat to the right to find the Temple entrance and then go
talk to the Temple Tengu. He will respawn on the shore once 
you've done this.

Winter Range- He's at the start of the level on the main path,
bring him a Tiger Lily to complete the quest. There is one in 
the woods to your right if you don't have one.

Tree Hugger  10GP
�����������
"Shake 15 trees"

You need to shake fifteen separate fruit trees to unlock this.
Simply shake every tree you see in the first few levels and
this should unlock pretty quickly.


Tripped and fell  30GP
����������������
"Defeat Boss Timid Swimmer"

Boat to the small stairs in front of you and go up them and to
the right to find a red pillar. Stand behind it to get him to
swing at it and a small piece will fall off. Stand behind it
to trigger the quicktime event that will take a third of his
health away. Then go back to the stairs, up again, and further
to the right to find a slightly smaller pillar. Repeat the
quicktime event. Go back up the stairs a third time, but this
time go left to find the shortest pillar and trigger the 
quicktime event a final time. This will unlock the achievement.
