In this entry, we find the last of the treasures in Episode 2. Next time, we'll take a break from the treasure hunting for another Trophy.
The treasures in this game work much like they do in Sly 2: they will be in certain locations in the episodes, and you'll have to go out of your way to find them, interact with them to grab them, and bring them back to the hideout without getting hurt by the enemies. Sadly, there is no way to get them show up on the Select screen map. Unlike that game, where some items were on timers and others were not, all of the treasures are on timers and you'll have a certain amount of time to get a treasure back to the hideout. The amount of time that you get depends on the treasure.
Each episode - not counting the Paris prologue and epilogue - has 12 treasures in all, leading to a total of 60. There are also a few Trophies for going for all the treasures along the way.
I also create some rules of my own for the treasure collection videos as well.
1. There are no practice runs. Everything that is done is done on the fly.
2. You will need all of the costumes before even attempting to get all of these.
3. There is a total of twenty (20) minutes to collect treasures per video. Whether any more time is needed to get one more treasure is a matter of discretion.
4. The timer only starts after exiting the hideout and gameplay begins.
5. In case a return to the hideout is needed to get away from enemies or to switch episodes, the timer is suspended. The timer is only restarted once the hideout is exited again and gameplay begins again.
6. After the twenty (20) minutes are up, we get to read the treasure descriptions and rotate the treasures.
GamesRadar made for some pretty good notes on how to find everything; you can find them here.
9. Steer Horns
There is a pipe leading up to some platforms in the scorpion shoot-out area. You'll need to jump to it with the Sabertooth Costume, then use the Jailbird Costume to get past the laser fields. Once you get back on the railroad tracks, move away from the area like you were taking a round trip around the area. You'll get to the hideout faster.
10. Temporal Flux Driver
There is a pair of outhouses on the northern part of the train route. You'll find this between them. Thankfully, getting to the hideout is done the same way as with the Steer Horns.
11. Street Sign
Remember where you found Toothpick's lollipop? You'll find it at the the top of that blue building. Thankfully, getting to the hideout is a bit of a snap, as you can use the power lines to get to it.
12. Bottle of Sarsaparilla
This treasure is far to the north on a rock ledge. As for delivering it, you'll need to stay on the ground on the way to the hideout and go to rooftop level halfway through.
Episode 3: Clan of the Cave Raccoon
1. Ruby Crystal
This treasure is located behind some trees south of the hideout. You'll need to jump off a nearby mushroom close to the hideout to make delivering this thing possible.
