Hints & Tips

Easy souls
If you are low on health at the end of the game and before you face the Boss go to the entrance of the keep for some battles. By now they should be really easy  just absorb the souls to raise your health.

Beating Ayame
Ayame is one of the most troublesome characters in the game. Although it seems she is impossible to kill, there is a way to put an end to her. Ayame is susceptible to magic attacks only so you have to attack her at a moment that you are fully charged with both energy and magic. Start by doing all of your special magic attacks, one sword at a time. Once your magic attacks run out, be prepared to block a lot while charging the magic attack of any of the weapons you have used. You can do this by blocking. Be prepared to move to the other end of the room to give yourself some room to maneuver. Once she stops to do one of her attacks, move forward and attack her with your charged-up weapon. Even if your weapon is not totally charged, be sure to attack her. She becomes invisible whenever the attack is not magic driven. If this happens, she will not be able to inflict any harm on you. Make sure to absorb any magic she releases. Continue this until she is beaten.

Better gauntlet
Reach 20,000 souls and when you go to enhance you will have a better gauntlet. Go when you have 50 to receive the Golden Ogre Gauntlet. Or capture 50,000 souls to get an even better gauntlet.

Enhancing
When enhancing, collect roughly 25,000 souls. The number next to the soul meter should say 25. Then enhance all of your weapons and Orbs to level two. After collecting the Wind Orb, use the souls that are left to bring that to level three, since it is weak.

Save your green and red mana for the fourth sword. It can be located just beyond the destroyed master's house (level four or five). By saving points, you can build the weapon up to full right away.

Great armor
There is a chest behind the waterfall containing the Great armor.

Metal armor
Manage to get the Fire Orb to level 3. Then go to the same place where you played as Kaede last. You should see a ladder. Go up the ladder and then open the door using your level 3 Fire Orb. You will be in a room with another ladder. Climb down and you should see a magic mirror. Next to it are two doors. Go through the one nearest to the magic mirror. Fight a demon, then go through the door on the right. Retrieve the gear and go to where you fought the demon. Then go through the door and you should be in a room with blowing fire jets. Pull the tab and run to the other side. Now open a cupboard and put the gear in place. An intermission showing a door opening up will now appear. Go in the room and you should locate a box. The metal armor is inside.

Bishamon O Flute
There are two places in the game where a very strange man hanging from the ceiling by his feet stares at you and also ignores you. Further in the game, after you use the Evil Plate and open the door, he will now talk to you. The man will now take you (whenever you want), to the Dark Realm. In the Dark Realm, kill monsters until two portals open. One to go up and one to go down. Keep going down to the final level (9th or 10th) while collecting all the items on the way. Open the box on the last level to get the Bishamon O flute. Keep the flute just before the last fight with the Demon King. It is needed to receive the Bishamon Sword.

Bishamon Sword
In the Demon Realm (just after you destroy the Ultimate Creation) is a save mirror and three doors. Go to the door that looks like an iron gate. It will not open at first. Use the Bishimon O flute on it and go in. Go to the Bishimon Sword jutting out of the Skull Demon wall object and take it. It is more powerful than all three of your weapons put together, and it has speed. The sword also has an unlimited supply of magic.

Fire Orb and Bow
After beating Reynaldo (the weird squirmy thing), go to the fire to the left where the zombie eating the human was to receive a Fire Orb. Before leaving the castle, enhance the Fire Orb to level 2. To obtain a Bow in the castle, go to the place where the bucket is at and cut it. Go upstairs and there will be a trick crate. Open it to retrieve the Bow. Make sure you have normal arrows before you use the Bow. You can find 10 normal arrows when you barely enter the castle and see the samurai and the kid.

Double Dark Realm rewards
If you are talented in the Dark Realm, go through it twice, once from the Sentry Box room and once from the well in the west area. You will only get the Bishamon Ocarina and the Flourites the first time, but you can pick up Herbs, Medicines, and another Talisman on your second trip.

Blinking eye
When you have an Orb in your gauntlet, stand still for a few seconds and the eye will blink.

Beating China Dolls
Note: This trick means using as much mana as you think you can spare. In every place you fight one of the china dolls, you have plenty of room to run around. They try to bite when you first wake them up. When you wake them up, block and back away as fast as you can. Try to get to an area where you can put them into a corner. Keep using the Wind Orb's magic attack. It helps to have it totally charged. You can also use the other Orbs, but Wind does the most damage. Then, equip the Lightning Orb, which has a fast attack that is nice to have. Keep blocking and charging your attacks. It will at times, just keep blocking until it stops then release your attack. After roughly two minutes it should die.

Beating archers
Use this trick to save arrows/bullets and health when facing archers. To kill archers on roofs without being in their line of fire and using up your arrows or bullets, run straight under them where they cannot shoot you and use a Wind spell. It will reach high enough to destroy them in one hit. If another enemy is directly under the archer, you can use a Lightning spell on that target and it will kill the archer above him as well. You can now save all but two of your arrows and all of your bullets for the last three Bosses, where they are really useful.

Extra red souls
When fighting enemies around the floating blue skull-ball things, allow them to absorb the souls that are released when you slay an enemy. When you kill the skull-ball, you will obtain many more red souls than if you had absorbed them straight from the demon.

At the end of the game, when you are walking down the spiral pit, you will come to a pink and black blob that squirts out the "squid" monsters. Now stand slightly to the left of where they land. When they are getting up (low enough that they are off-balance, but high enough that your foot can get to them), kick them over and stab them when they are laying down. You can easily get your red soul bar filled up 30 times using this method.

Beating Chameleons
To make a short work of Chameleons, equip the Lightning orb, press
R, and run straight at them as soon as they appear before they become visible. They will pause before they attack when they first come in. You can get in a Lightning spell as soon as they uncloak and wipe them out before they have the chance to do any harm. If you run out of magic, keep the Lightning sword equipped and block. Do not attack while they are using their sword on you, as they sometimes do a double slam and if you try to counter you will get hit. Wait for them to either uncloak at a distance and use their ring attack, block, then run straight at them holding down R and counter; or jump up and attack you, block, then counter while they are getting up from their crouch. If you do this fast enough, you can get an instant kill.

Beating Marcellus
At the end of the game you should have every weapon and orb at the maximum. When fighting Marcellus again, kick him and use the Thunder Orb's magic. For some reason, this is stronger than his other attacks.

Beating Fortinbras
Just start off by doing any type of attack that will make Fortinbras fall to the ground (special attacks will make this fast and easy). From this point on, just keep kicking him to death. This will take awhile. You will never get hit, plus he will not be able to attack you if you can keep the chain kicks going.

Use this technique if you have only your three normal weapons, and not the secret sword. Kick him, then slash him with the Enryuu Fire Sword. It is the strongest. Then give him roughly five kicks and then deliver a Thunder Orb magic. Redo this until you have no more Thunder magic left. Then, use the Wind Orb magic to knock him down. Use the Fire Orb and some kicks. Most of his attacks are easy to avoid, except the fire.

To avoid being hit by Fortinbras' fire attack, just go as far as you can backwards.
