Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Head east from the start to a junction, then take the northbound path to find a crashed UFO. Reactivate it to receive a rabbit for the Animal Book.
  2. 2
    Return to the hammer sign and use your giga carpenters to build a Jump Cannon. You can now leave and return to this area.
  3. 3
    Return to Sobamanjaro, select it on the menu, and take the eastbound path at the junction. Defeat the Cow Onii Worker and move on to find a hole.
  4. 4
    Yvonne the giant frog will jump out; run away and defeat her from a range. Dig in the hole to unearth Art Piece 88, "Lips Man" by Ogatamatsushima, after fighting off Onii and Cow Onii Workers.
  5. 5
    Continue along the path to find four Oniis carrying a giant red tail (Worker Onii (Tail)). Retreat immediately when you see smoke, as they will lash their tail, instantly killing anyone hit. Use a hit-and-run strategy with your hunters.
  6. 6
    After defeating the Worker Onii (Tail), move north at the fork to find a Crab Onii. While arrows may not deal much damage, you can stun it to allow your hardened soldiers to destroy it.
  7. 7
    Open the crack in the ground to expose a hot spring. Examine the red sign to discover Wonder Spot #16: Hidden Hot Spring.
  8. 8
    Further north, you will find another hole and Art Piece 72, "Breaktime Family" by Masao. The hole cannot be opened yet.
  9. 9
    Return to the Jump Cannon and head north to enter Mt. Sobamanjaro proper.
  10. 10
    Inside the mountain, open the first crack you see for a hot spring and examine the picture.
  11. 11
    Pancho will deliver a letter of challenge from King Long Sauvage, who considers your kingdom, Antpoko, insignificant. Your objective is to climb to the top of the mountain and be higher than Long Sauvage before time runs out. Giga carpenters are essential for constructing bridges.
  12. 12
    Talk to the mounties and the registrar behind the counter. The registrar will belittle your team's chances against King Long Sauvage.
  13. 13
    A scene will trigger where a mounty attempts to deliver food to Long Sauvage at an altitude of 487m 95cm, but birds and another climber eat most of it, leaving only an apple core.
  14. 14
    Long Sauvage welcomes you to the mountain, and railway crossing gates rise up, initiating the race.

Long Sauvage Challenge:

  1. This challenge is a timed rally. You must extend your time by passing through checkpoints. You will lose if time runs out.
  2. Checkpoints close down after a while; ensure everyone passes before they close, or they will be eliminated.
  3. Your objective is to reach an altitude of 487m.
  4. Start running and pass the first checkpoint (an auto-save point you restart from on death).
  5. Use your miners to break through the two rocks blocking the path ahead.
  6. The next path features Sauvage's beard strands slamming down. Enter guard formation and run through as soon as the closest beard strand starts to rise. Avoid incendiary shells thrown by mounties.
  7. Pass through the next checkpoint.
