In this entry, we wrap up the Episode 1 treasure hunt, then get Episode 2 started.
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.
6. Lucky Neko
This is located on a tall pillar just south of the hideout. Getting to the hideout with the Paraglide shouldn't be hard at all.
7. Jade Samurai Helmet
This is on top of a crate behind the Geisha House; you've probably seen it once or twice while I've played this game.
8. Tales of a Samurai Hippo Comic
This is hidden in an Ancestor Door to the south. To reach it, you'll need to fire a rope arrow from the roof of the sushi shop, then you'll need to get on the switch with the Thief Costume and slow down time to get inside before the door closes. Once you get it, run back north.
9. Jade Peach
This is on top of a crate behind the building south of the sushi shop.
10. Samurai Warrior
There are some low platforms south of the hideout. Drop down to them, then equip the Jailbird costume to knock the crates out of the way. Beyond the crates is an Ancestor Door.
11. Ninja Cookbook
This is on a boat on the eastern part of the map. You may have seen this one once or twice during the Let's Play.
12. Golden Teapot
This is on a low platform north of the hideout.
Episode 2: Go West Young Raccoon
1. Bag of Cash
This is underneath the hideout. Get to ground level and look for some crates that can be pushed with the Jailbird costume, then open the door with the Samurai Armor's deflection attack. Getting back is easy if you know where the rope leading all the way back up to the hideout is.
2. Fake Mustache
This treasure is southwest of the hideout and involves another Ancestor Door. Use the Sabertooth Costume to get over the gaps, and keep the costume on standby to break the Ancestor Door. As far as getting the treasure goes, use the rail slide to get to the hideout more quickly.
