Mark Of Kri, The - Strategy Guide (Page 02)

Below are the cheat codes, hints and help for Mark Of Kri, The - Strategy Guide (Page 02).

Now, when you begin the level you will be outside the dark one's fortress.  
Enter and ignore the three zombies atop the structure in the first room.  They
do nothing and they're not worth wasting arrows on.  This level is pretty
straight forward and completely linear so you shouldn't have any trouble
except staying alive with fifteen enemies surrounding you.  Make sure you use
the axe and axe combos or you will not survive this level.  The first few rooms
are a breeze as all the zombies have no armor.  Further in most of them will 
have armor and combos will be essential to your survival.  Here are a few of my
suggestions on which combos are the best to use:

FUA USU RUTU - this combo spins Rau around in a circle with his axe extended,
               hacking at anything near you.

FUA TOKO FAAHU - this combo also does a circle with the axe (not as long), but
		 with a cool axe toss/swing/jump at the end.

FUA USU FAAHU - this combo is great if you need to cut a path through a horde
		of enemies.  Rua will swing his axe around and then cut a path
		spinning his axe forward and stepping several times.

Now, there is one enemy on this level that is an absolute pain in the neck.
It's a little impish creature that makes sounds similar to a monkey.  It will
steal a random weapon from Rau if it touches you.  They are easy to kill if you
can catch them but this proves difficult when there are three of them in the
room and they steal your axe, sword, and taiaha, leaving you to fight off ten
enemies with nothing but your bow.  It will happen... My suggestion is ignore
them if they steal anything other than your axe, then after all the threatening
enemies have been cleared out, retake your weapons.  If they take your axe,
pull out your sword (it seems better at taking out the zombies) and try and get
your axe back quickly.  If I had my Taiaha I would just use it and perform a
FUA USU FAAHU over and over again impaling the enemies until I got it back.
If you aren't any good at pulling it off however, you might want to use my
sword advice.

Lay waste to the hoards of enemies and you will eventually make it to section
two of this level.  Section two has a pattern...Enter room, door locks you in,
fight hoards and ocassionally hit switches to open next room, repeat pattern.
Eventually you will come to a room with a chasm that you cannot cross.  Send
Kuzo across to hit the switch and it will extend a bridge enabling you to reach
the other side where an archer that has been pelting you can be dispatched.
The very next room is empty so take some time for a break here and save if you
want.

[Read Hidden Tuku Section]

Then after a few more rooms you will be at the final room and the final
showdown with the dark one...and his goons of course...  You will get a
cutscene and a massive battle will ensue.  The dark one will be up on a ledge
protected by three red armored zombies.  Don't bother trying to climb the ledge
becuase you can't.  All you will get is a pike to the head.  Focus on the
enemies surrounding you and eventually it will cut to the dark one summoning
more zombies.  After three of these cutscenes the dark one will be spent and
the three red armored zombies will jump down from the ledge and attack you.
Kill all the enemies and climb the ledge for the final cutscene and ending 
of the Mark of Kri.  Sit back and relax...you've earned it!

After the credits you will see..."Look for further adventures of Rau"
So hopefully there will be a sequel to this great game!

Hidden Tuku:
In the next room will be a horde of enemies and to the right of the exit of
that room, just around a corner, will be a switch.  Hit it and it will open a 
door just around the corner to the left of the exit.  Go through that smaller
door and you will find the Tuku along with some health and a save scroll.
When you get the Tuku you should see a yellow message appear saying "All
Weapons for All Levels Available".  I can't remember exactly...

X. Glitches
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Just random glitches really.  If you look closely you will see Kuzo fly
through trees, walls, columns etc...depending on where you stand before
sending it to a perch.

Also, Don't count on walls as being a safe place to hide when being pelted
by a barrage of arrows.  Most times the just pass right through.

Needless to say the collision detection is not quite up to par in this game.
