PrinceWatercress plays Tomba! - Part 11 of 22


In this entry, we open some 1,000 Year Old Chests and find the Hidden Village.


The 1,000 Year Old Chest at the Seaside Mansion contains a blue gem that gives 100,000 AP when taken.

Remember the 1,000 Year Old Chest in the Dwarf Forest on the way to the Dwarf Village? It contains a Vitality Max +1.

In the Watch Tower area, you can equip the Bucket by using it an item. From there, you'll need to find the dew drops that fall down and get them to fall into your bucket. From here, go back to the fire in the Dwarf Forest that you saw on the way to the village. Go up to the fire, use the Bucket that is now full of water as an item to put the fire out and reveal a Baked Yam. Take the Baked Yam. You'll need it soon.

Remember where the lost dwarf child was in the Watch Tower area? If you go there now, you'll find some Flower Seeds. Get them and trigger the "Flower Seeds" objective, then take them back to the Dwarf Elder's home and use them as an item where the dwarf child is standing. This will complete the "Flower Seeds" objective and start the "Plant a Flower Garden!" objective. To do this one, you'll just need to come back here later.

The dwarf child will tell you that before the Evil Pigs put a spell on the forest, there were flowers in the forest, and that he wants to plant a seed to grow one. He is, however, scared that flowers may never grow here again.

Also in the Dwarf Village, go back to the woman who said she lost something in the forest and use the Baked Yam as an item. She will tell you that this is what she was looking for, then she will tell Tomba to pull her finger. He automatically does, and you'll hear a fart sound. (I'm guessing yams help with bad gas or something?) In exchange, the woman will give you a Vitality Max +1.

Since we don't have a certain item yet, we cannot go past eight hit points yet. You'll still want to pick these up, as the game will still keep track of the ones you've gotten and the Vitality Max +1 items will fully refill your health when you get them.

Back at the Lava Caves, Grapple straight up just to the right of where the thief was. If you latch onto a plant that you can't normally see, you've found it. Make your way up and jump on the accordion rock, then de-equip the Funky Parasol and jump straight up and grapple when the accordion rock is at its highest. It takes a few tries to get up there, but if you latch on to something while throwing the Grapple straight up from here, hold Up. You'll latch onto a plant. Get the gem for AP and climb up the ladder. Welcome to the Hidden Village.

If you talk around, you'll find out about a boy named Yan who loves to play hide-and-seek. Unfortunately, nobody has seemed to find him. If you talk to the man in the house next to the save point sign, he will give you Yan's Lunch Box. DO NOT EAT THE LUNCH BOX. You'll then get the "Take Out" objective.

Another person in the village will tell you that the Koma Pigs are protecting "some sort of unusual gold thing" in the area. Could this be where the Koma Pigs are storing all that gold...?

If you talk to the guy with the blue hair who is walking around outside in the village, he will wish he had something to eat. This triggers the "I'm So Hungry" objective. If you walk in his path to stop him and use a Lunch Box, he will introduce himself as Taro and give you some Cheese in return, completing the objective.

At the north end of the village is a giant egg statue. Maybe it serves a purpose...?
