• Drunken Master: Yellow Island - after your dance at the bar - unmissable;
  
• Tornado Feet: when you get on a boat to fish for some guy, on the right side of the screen there will be a floating bottle. I'm not sure if you get this on Yellow or Blue Island;

There's a STRANGE MAN lying on your bed. Talk to man. You'll receive a new special move: Healing Hands! Pay attention when STRANGE MAN says this:

"At some point ahead you will face a foe that will not yeld, no matter what. He will be so stubborn he will not fall. In a time such as this, remember: perhaps heal your opponent rather than throw your punches."

Go sleep. Wake up the other day. There's something in your bed. Dishi will come. You'll fight SNAKE RAIDER. Exit the prison.

Talk to some people. Next to the prison (on the left side of building), you'll find a GUARD. Talk to him, he will tell you to kill the snake prisoner and give a key.

The guard near the door to top tier won't let you pass. talk to PIP, he will help you get to top tier. In TOP TIER, you'll fight the Red Lord.

You can't win this fight. Remember what did STRANGE MAN say to you? When Red Lord is at low HP (I don't remember how much), use Healing Hands (Special Move) on him. He will thank you and give a THIMBLE.

Go back to castle (that one with big yellow statues). Enter and you'll fight Xie. Win this fight, and exit top tier to "low tier". Go left, and enter the snakehead. Fight Snorkrak. Red Lord will come, and everybody will be happy, but you still didn't find Grandmaster Hand.

Some time later..

You are in a new place! Talk to Joachin. Talk to TREE (yes!). Go right. Exit through the rightmost exit (BTW did you notice this cave looks very similar to cave in Blue island?). Exit right again. Talk to Yammu (near pond). Talk to Suanni (near big eye, above pond). Return to first area and go through the other exit. You'll meet Gong Gong and Howgrundi (achievement!). Exit. Exit right two times. Play the MESMERIZE BEAST song of the scroll. Enter cave. Use FLUTE on BEAST. Play CONTROL BEAST song of SCROLL. The beast is following you. Go to first area. Near the TREE, talk to CREATURE and say: "Can you lay down under that tree?". Talk again and say: "Can you get that bird statue down for me?" Wear DRAGON CLOTHES. Go through DOOR that SUANNI is guarding (near pond). Ops, that didn't work.
Yammu will talk to you. Go to first are and take BIRD STATUE. Go back to YAMMU and give her the statue. Follow.

You are now a fish! You have to collect THIMBLES scattered through map. To do that, use following map.


Sorry for the red font!.

You are out of water!
Kiki is here! Exit right. Walk right until you find the person you were looking for!

Talk with Grandmaster Hand. When you are done, exit right. Analyze SYMBOL on ground. Put THIMBLES on this SYMBOL. You activated the portal. Exit and the game ends. During credits you can understand the story of what happened to this person.

[andriysurzhenko]

Fish PTSD expression is the best!
p.s. the backstory is sad.

[andriysurzhenko]

Do not miss fighting a girl on the blue island!

[Nordom]

During the prologue you can drink the elixir (green mug on your nightstand) which increases your HP by 1 point after completing training and finding your gi.

[Captain Freakout]

Just for anyone else playing this, there's a cue for when you can use the Healing on the Red Lord - he'll say something when he's around 7 HP or so, and that's when you can use it.

[MakoSipper]

Oh, ok, the map threw me off. There's a passage under the big grey fish area, but to the right, and that leads to the yellow thimble.

[MakoSipper]

For the last part, the red thimble is actually where you say the grey thimble is, and the grey thimble is in the same area where the fugu was. However, when I get it, the giant fish comes after me, and I'm stuck trying to figure out what to do here. I've eaten the red fruit and tried to draw it away, but then I can't go past it.

[Coach Gamer]

You should use a pearl on entrance to get the green thimble

[prdxsrsr]

Thank you! This has been a big help several times now. Can you point me to the green thimble, while you are a fish ?
