chracters mentioned or used are owned by Midway Games. This guide is to be
used on Gamefaqs.com only and used with their kind permission. All tips and
advice used in this guide were found through gameplay experience, no other
help was given from any outside agency or distributor.

==============================================================================
B: Quick Introduction
==============================================================================

This game is the first in the Mortal Kombat series to take the fighting
to new places and dimensions. Instead of being enclosed in some arena, you 
are free to travel whereever you want to whilst attacking in any direction.
It also brings in a new, clearer plot to the series that wasnt so apparent in 
Midway's predecessors such as MK 1 and MK 2, which incidentally is where
this game takes place between.

Whats new and improved are several things: new enemies, new attacks, easier
fatality input, enhanced enviroments and, obviously as this guide says,
the introduction of Bosses. No more pounding the same enmies over again like 
Deadly Alliance. No. Now all your favourites and have been upgraded to bosses
who have to be defeated in order to advance. But it's not easy, as many of 
you will know.....

==============================================================================
C: Items You Will Find In The Game
==============================================================================

Obviously, Midway aren't going to just leave you to do your thing with just
your limbs, are they? No, they're giving you some other stuff to do that with.

HEALTH-UPS
..........

These come in small, medium and large, but no fries or a McFlurry....Small 
gives you back about a quarter of a full bar, Medium gives back a half, and a
Large (which is so rare there's only about 2 or 3 in the whole game) give you
a full refill of health. To find these, just break small objects like piles of
bones or small statues.

EXP.
....

This stands for Experience Points. These also come in 3 sizes: 50 EXP, 100 EXP
and 400 EXP, the latter only found after a Boss is defeated. There are several 
combinations of EXP. totals to get, but that invovles performing huge combos.
The 3 sizes of EXP are items that, like Health-ups, are commonly found in small
breakable objects throughout the game. Here's a hint though: Find Kabal and he
will leave behind 500 EXP items. EXP serves as a kind of currency in the game.
Get enough of it and you will be able to 'buy' new moves and combos.

KOINS
.....

There are several types of Koins found throughout the game:

GOLD: 
-----

Shoot these with a projectile attack to reveal a Secret Koin


SECRET/YIN YANG KOIN:
---------------------

Found either by Gold Koins or just floating somewhere,
collecting one of these will unlock something in the Kontent section of the 
Main Menu. Be warned that some Secrets are only accessible in Ko-op Mode. When
and where I can remember, I will tell you how to get the Secret Koin in each
area. If not, then I strongly recommend The Secrets FAQ by Serphium.


RED/BLOOD KOIN: 
---------------

There are only 3 in the game, but they give your character 1
Fatality, 1 Brutality and 1 Multality. The Secret Koins unlock more of each as
you find them, so if you want more methods of FINISHING HIM!, then get 
searching.

FLAMING KOIN:
-------------

These give your character a new ability needed to progress in the
game. These are most commonly found after a Boss has been defeated, but there
is 1 found by itself in a certain area (I'll talk about that in the guide)

VICTORY KOINS: 
--------------

Found only after a Boss is defeated, collecting 5 will allow
you access to the final area of the game.

GREEN KOIN: 
-----------

These are rare (4 in total) but they are a blessing whwn you get
them as they provide a permanent health boost that re-charges your health AND
lengthens your health bar overall so you can take more punishment before you
die.

BLUE KOIN:
----------

Only found at the very start, these will help you get to grips with the basics.

WEAPONS
.......

There are several of these hidden in the game, and all are SWEET! They cannot
be blocked by regular enemies and provide a helluva lot of damage.....the only
setback is that you yourself cannot block enemy attacks while holding a weapon.
If this proves too much of a problem, then throw the weapon and impale any foe
nearby.

PORTALS
.......

Jump in, go for a ride, come back out at some other place. Simple.

==============================================================================
D: Controls

MK Dragon: Save Point
Key: Puzzle that needs to be solved
Blue Door: Exits/ Entrances to other areas

FATALITY STUNNER
................

To instantly kill an enemy/ finish off a Boss, Pressing L1 makes your character
stun the enemy/ Boss ready for a Fatality, Brutality or Multality. A Boss will
have a pre-set combination to carry out, but regular enemies are susceptible to
all 3 finishing moves, but require a code you must remember.

FATALITY
........

Ah, you can't beat the best can you? Performing this will kill the Boss you 
are facing, or kill a single enemy (the one you hit with the Stunner). Uses a
single meter of blood.

MULTALITY
.........

Kills all enmies within a certain radius of you, but uses up 2 full meters of
blood in the ball next to your health bar.

BRUTALITY
.........

Enables your character to go nuts and kill brutally (Hint: O button is fun) but
it does require 3 completely full/ maximum blood meter, so using it will drain
your ability to do a Fatality for a while.

BLOOD METER
...........

Performing combos slowly fill it with blood, and when full allows your 
character to perform a Fatality.

*For all -alities, when the FINISH HIM screen appears, each ality consists of
a 5 button sequence. Each sequence is always a random selection of directional
buttons ( UP, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT) and Square, Triangle or Circle as the 5th key.
Square is for Fatalities, Triangle for Multalities and Circle for Brutalities.

SAVE POINTS
...........

Like the name implies, they allow you to save your game whenever you find a
statue with the shining light in its hands. If things get really desparate,
they also give a full health replenshment whenever you interact with them.

==============================================================================
E: The Walkthrough
==============================================================================

* For information on Bosses, please refer to my Boss FAQ on the same page.
** For the length of this guide I will use Liu Kang as the fighter, but if you
are using Kung Lao, then don't worry as attack-wise they are almost identical.
*** Check the Attack List every now and then, a message will tell you when you
can purchase new attacks.

IT BEGINS......

==============================================================================

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
                                   GORO'S LAIR
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

ENEMY: 10+ Oni

When you first begin, you will be stuck in Goro's Lair, with not much around 
you to help either. Look for the Blue Koin and an FMV will play. When it ends,
you will get the chance to get used to the movements and attacks Liu has. The
Oni are the easiest enemies in the game so do not worry.

* Throw an enemy into the chained skeleton on the wall for a Secret Koin

After enough practice and defeating all of the Oni, head into the second room.
There you will get to practice blocking, multi-kombat and weapons practice.
Defeat all the enemies to unlock the Exit. Well done on beating your first
area! Wasn't too bad was it? YES?! Good Luck with the rest of the game....:-)

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 6 Oni

Hmm, some dumb Oni, throw attacks, and the infamous Pit arena spikes right next
to you.....do what comes naturally :-) Break the pile of skulls to get some
health or EXP then jump onto the wall. Run along, take out the Oni, then head 
left before climbing onto another wall. Run along it and jump from platform to
platform before reaching the very top. Break the piles of bones for more stuff
then head along the infamous Pit bridge. A mysterious kombatant awaits, but he
will return later......throw the 3 Oni off the bridge for a cool FMV then head
towards the Exit.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 3 Oni (more if all 3 are killed before Fatality process)

As you enter, you'll see the first Red Koin in the centre. Collect it and read
Raiden's words. Do as he says and perform combos on the Oni that appear. The
bigger the combo, the quicker the meter fills. When it only allows you to push
L1, use the Stunner on an Oni and go from there. Fun wasn't it? Before you
finish off the last Oni, maybe 2, read this hint, then head towards the Exit.

*Launch an enemy into the chandelier for a Secret

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 4 Oni

When the FMV ends and the Oni start attacking, head left and read the Blue Koin
and its advice. Throw an Oni into the wall to break it, then finish off the 
others to gain a bit more EXP., then leave through the broken wall. Easy so far
isn't it?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: X Oni , Oni Warlord BOSS, 2 Masked Guards

Save at the Save Point using R2, you may possibly need it. Head left and watch
the FMV of the unfortunate Oni, the head into the Pit for your first Boss.
When he dies and you've grabbed the Koin, head left and climb the platforms,
run along the wall and then Long Jump (R1+X) to cross the gap. Climb the other 
platforms, and Long jump again across the bridge.

*On the other side of the bridge, go towards the bottom corner and use the 
camera to look for a Secret Koin.

Cross the small wooden bridge to trigger the next FMV. Now you have a choice:
Either save the Fatality and throw both over the bridge, or use one and the 
other. If you wish, you can fight both to the death, just remember to block
their attacks first to knock them off balance before you go in. Deal with them
and the Portal out of there will open. Jump inside.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
                                  WU-SHI ACADEMY
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
ENEMY: 7 Tarkata (+ 2 that constantly re-spawn in the same place),
       2 Masked Guards

Well that was an almost pointless FMV......as soon as you start, break the
small stone object to your right in case it holds anything. When you move
forwards, you will encounter 3 Tarkata. I'd recommend killing 2 and throwing
the other into the spikes in case of health problems. When you see the large
stone canopy, break the 2 objects on either side before going underneath as it
will collapse on top of you and you need to be quick to not get hurt. Climb up
to the top then watch the Tarkata have fun with the monk in the catapult. At 
moment, there isnt any rush, so throw both, or launch them, into the catapults
for some fun. Head right to the Masked Guard, and try to *throw him into the 
3rd catapult along this path. Doing so unlocks another Secret Koin. Head back 
to the clearing where the 2 Tarkata were and climb up the 2 steps and then head
right. Throw the Tarkata into the pile of boulders to clear the path ahead. 
Return to that place and you will eventually see a 4th catapult. Here you NEED
to throw the single Tarkata into it, as it breaks the wooden barricade that was
up the top. Head back to the barricade, where 2 Tarkata appear. Throw one into
the boulder pile and then deal with the other one. Head AGAIN back to the 4th 
catapult where the way is now clear. Avoid the fire and spikes and then climb 
onto the paved wall where the Secret Koin appeared. Head along the wall to the
right to find the Exit. Damn, that was a long bit......

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 10+ Tarkata

Here, climb down and help Johnny Cage take care of the Tarkata down below. When
they're dead, head along the path where Sonya was, and the wall will enclose,
leaving you to deal with 3 more of them on your own. They aren't that hard, so
beat them senseless and then head through the newly opened door. Climb up the
wall where that boulder just smashed and head along the path, but for your sake
look out for the boulders that hit the path, a direct hit takes away 2/3 health
of yours. 3 more Tarkata will spring up while Cage is opening the door, so
kepp them busy in the meantime. When the door opens, Johnny will be on the 
ground using another turn-wheel while more enemies are attacking, so do the
same thing again. When the door opens, go back to the small alcove where those
weapons were. Grab the Green Koin health power-up before getting a weapon. Head
back and ignore the enemies, instead go to the bottom right corner where a path
will take you to the top of that wall, with 4 pots of molten steel. Cut the 
ropes with the weapon and watch the Tarkata outside get their come-uppance. Go
back down and through the final door to find the Exit.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: None encountered

Go down the steps at the front, then head right whilst avoiding the flames to
find the next place you need to be. Simple.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 3 Tarkata

Go to the far-right corner whilst avoiding the inferno as best you can, as
there is a Test Your Might you have to do. Press R2 to activate it, and then
when the bar on the left appears, push X and O rapidly to fill the bar. As soon
as it goes above the yellow line, push R1 and the T.Y.M is completed. Head back
and climb onto the building with the slightly sunken roof, then onto the paths
above. Go left, ignoring the Tarkata, and complete the T.Y.M again. When the
water flows the Tarkata should be killed anyway. Follow the water to the next
T.Y.M., then follow the subsequent water. Ignore the large statue for now, and
follow the water's path again to another T.Y.M. Break that and follow the water
to the end, where you must go onto the adjacent roof, then Long Jump onto the
building that has the last T.Y.M and a Tarkata on top. Kill the enemy first
before completing the last T.Y.M.....for now.....land back on the ground, see
the FMV then go back through the door you entered to watch a longer FMV.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 2 Tarkata, 2 Masked Guards

Back in this area, avoid the flames as before and follow the path all the way 
left. Throw the 2 Tarkata into the spikes to save time, then jump down while
avoiding the 2 swinging logs. Head right where 2 Masked Guards are waiting for
you, but so is a catapult....:-) Kill them and save at the Save Point before
heading to the large Portal.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
                                  THE PORTAL
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

ENEMY: 2 Shadow Priests, 2 Demon Captains

When you start, ignore the 2 Shadow Priests behind you and go right, When you
see the path that has a section of floor missing, go along there and Long Jump
the gap. 2 Demon Captains will ambush you, so deal with them quickly any way
you like. Follow the path right and jump into the blue portal at the end.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
                                 EVIL MONASTERY
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

ENEMY: 8 Demon Archers

At first, just run up the steps until the FMV cuts in. When it ends, keep to
the right and up the stairs. Ignore the Demon Archers and the other stairs for
now, instead stay left and you will find a T.Y.M lever. Completing it will
reveal 2 spike traps on the ground floor, so jump back down to there. The Demon
enemies will follow you, so lure them there, and then launch or throw one of
them onto the spikes. Do the same onto the other trap and the door at the top
of the room will open. Deal with any enemies that block your path.....

*Shoot the Gold Koin for a Secret Koin

and get the Secret Koin, then Exit through the door.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 1 Demon Handler, 2 Demon Archers

This room looks a bit bare, but the reason comes to in a moment. Ignore the 
weapon halfway up the stairs and go to the main floor. As you approach, various
types of Demon enemy appear. To escape them, throw one of them onto the row of
spikes aginst the back wall, then jump onto his body to reach the floor above.
Escape through the door at the end of the stairs.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 2 Demon Generals, 1 Demon Archer

Here is where you encounter your first Demon Generals, and they will come back
to bite you in the......never mind, they are annoying, let's put it like that.

*Throw an enemy onto both hands of the Demon Buddha to find a Secret Koin

Grab the Secret if you want/can, then head for the usual Exit.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 5 Shadow Priests, 10 Demon Captains, Kitana BOSS

There is another Red Koin here, but before you grab it, try to Run + O kick
the Shadow Priest through the window, it will help in a minute. Grab the koin
and 3 Demon Captains will appear. Like before, fill the meter completely and
you will be prompted to perform a Multality. Do that and head to the orange
Portal guarded by the statues. See that broken column next to you?

*Grab the Secret Koin on the roof.

Grab the Koin and then start to ascend to the roof. Long jump the spike pit,
and a wall will trap you with a Shadow Priest and 2 Demon Captains. 

+Note: Shadow priest cannot be thrown or Fatalitied, not can Bloody Skeletons.

To save health, throw the Captains from the arena and then focus on the Priest
as that way he can't give power-ups to the Captains. The wall at the back will 
drop. Long Jump across another pit and deal with another group of similar 
enemies. Do this once more and continue climbing, but watch out for the column 
that rolls down the path, it hurts like hell.....avoid Kitana's trap and Save
at the given Point. Head to the roof to confront Kitana. Beating her will
automatically take you to a new area.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: Kitana BOSS, Jade BOSS, Mileena BOSS

After a lengthy FMV, the Boss fight begins, with 3 of them to take care of.
After you beat them and the 2nd FMV ends, there will be a Victory Koin above
the body. Grab it, and that's 1 down, 4 to go. There will be a large amount of
EXP. left behind so grab those too, then start to practice the Fist of Ruin
attack. When you're confident with pushing the O button several times :-), jump
through the Portal at the back.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: None

This is the easiest part of the Monastery. Each time you re-enter a previous
arena, the wall that blocked your path before re-appears. To get rid of it,
just use the Fist of Ruin on the statues that are in the centre, and the wall
drops. Do the same to the rest, including the pair that guard the orange Portal
from earlier and then jump into it.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
                            THE PORTAL (PORTAL....AGAIN!?)
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
ENEMY: 2 Shadow Priests

When play resumes, you will be on the bottom floor. Go towards the camera and
right to find a path that leads upwards. You will see 2 Shadow Priests in the
background which need to be taken care of to advance. Run + O kick, or Flying
Kick them into oblivion and the pathway will appear to take you to the next
place.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% 
                                   LIVING FOREST
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
ENEMY: 5 Putrid Corpses, 4 Brother of Shadow

After the FMV, there is another statue that needs breaking. To the front is a
living tree (big face, no limbs) that needs to be fed one of the Putrid Corpses
roaming around. Doing so gets you the first Hint and gets rid of the wall of
thorns at the back. Go to the Save point but don't save, just kill the Corpses
that are there, then go back and deal with any other enemies still around.
Cross the pit of thorns and then 4 Brothers of Shadow appear. These guys are
really annoying, as they attack randomly and hide underground AND they have to
be beaten to advance. Hopefully you should have a Multality ready to sort them
out quickly. If not, then just focus on one of them to build up the meter. When
they are eventually dead, jump and go through the door on the ledge previously
guarded by the wall of thorns to the right.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 2 Putrid Corpses, 2 Clay Soldiers

Straight away, head left and jump the river. 2 Putrid Corpses fall from the sky
of which one needs to be fed to another living tree. Do so to get the second
hint, then Exit through the door you can see next to it.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 2 Clay Soldiers

DO NOT STEP IN THE RIVER IN ANY CIRCUMSTANCE. Doing so results in giant snakes
having a feast on you, so avoid the water. Use the stepping stones whilst
avoiding the Clay Soldiers that come to life toreach the waterfall at the back 
of the area. Climb up using the ledges and then Exit through the door at the 
top.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: X Putrid Corpses

Move to the right until the ambush of snakes appear. To clear them and the wall
of thorns blocking your path, you have to throw a Putrid Corpse into a snakes
path so it catches and eats it. Do this 4 times (not very hard) and the way is
cleared. There is another Save Point here so use it now while you can. Climb 
up the wall and feed the last living tree to get the 3rd and final hint. After
that, the giant stone snake mouth opens and your next move is revealed. Head
inside.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: X Putrid Corpses (for Brutality purpose)

Although this a plain room, there is a circle to stand in in the center. It
then activates a series of immobile Clay Soldiers to rush towards you then go
back where they came from. You cannot move from the circle so it requires a
fair bit of good reflexes. After the easy 1st round, there is a medium 2nd
round followed by the last and hardest round. It will then unlock the final
Red oin which gives you the Brutality ability. Do what you have done before 
then head for the Exit on the right.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: None

Not much along here, just plenty of statues to break and claim some EXP and
health, you'll need them.

*Shoot the closed arch-eye to open it and reveal a Secret Koin

Head for the Exit door at the far end.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: Snake BOSS, Reptile BOSS

In here is where you fight the Giant Snake and his owner, Reptile. After both
their defeats, claim the EXP. scattered about the floor, then Fist of Ruin the
mid-section of the snake to destroy it and reveal the now-climbable wall.
Leave through the door you came in.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: None

Same tunnel as before, claim some items if you want to then head back out.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: None

*Destroy all the Clay Soldiers to reveal a Secret Koin

Other than that, nothing here for you so just get out of there.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 2 Putris Corpses

On the way back down, stand next to the living tree and climb the wall with
the similar markings as the one inside the lair. Up the top is another Health
Booster for you. After that, head for the Exit on the left.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 2 Clay Soldiers

Avoid falling in the river as before, and head for the Exit at the bottom.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 2 Putrid Corpses, 2 Clay Soldiers

Nothing here at all. Go to the Exit on the right.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 5 Putrid Corpses, 4 Brother of Shadow

Avoid the Brother of Shadow enemies, but kill the Putrid Corpses for some extra
EXP. Head for the Portal.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
                                 THE PORTAL
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
ENEMY: 4 Skulls, 2 Shadow Priests

You see that really big wall that looks climbable? You have to climb it
*SHOCKHORROR*. On the way though, 4 skulls will try to ram you off of it.
The best way to avoid them is jump the instant they start to move so that you
go right over them and they miss. Reach the top and there are 2 more Shadow 
Priests to take care of. Kill them and the entrance to the Soul Tombs appears.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
                                SOUL TOMBS
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
ENEMY: None

At the very start, use the camera to look left.

*Hit the koin for a Secret Koin

It is a very difficult shot so well done of you manage it. Other than that,
approach the massive entrance and go inside.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 6 Tarkata

In the hub of the whole place, there are 2 doors, red and green. I recommend
going the green way first.

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
                                GREEN PATH
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
ENEMY: 8 Tarkata

When you enter the room, there are 4 Tarkata that will attack you. Launch 2 of
them into the ceiling, and fight the other 2 to gain EXP which you'll need at
some point later. Another 3 or 4 will appear after them, so deal with them in
the same fashion and the door to the right will open for you.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 3 Tarkata, 2 Putrid Corpses

Ignore all of the enemies here and the left door because you can't unlock it
yet. Go to the door on the right and Exit.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 8 Skulls, X Tarkata

This is some weird type of gauntlet. Only jump onto the platforms after the
boulders have hit, but also watch out for the pairs of skulls that attack
every now and then. At the half-way point on the large platform, 2 Tarkata
appear.

*Launch a Tarkata into the flying creature for a Secret koin

After that is another set of platforms and skulls to avoid. Dodge them and
enter the entrance at the end of the gauntlet.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 1 Tarkata

Out of sight is a Tarkata waiting for you, so approach him whilst blocking.
When you do get within attacking range, launch him into the fan to get rid of
him. A few pots hold a few bonuses so grab them if you wish, then go to the 
door on the right and Exit.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 4 Tarkata

To get out of here, you need to launch am enemy into the spikes hanging from
that wooden balcony, which is easier said than done with 3 others trying to
kill you. Launch one of them but let the whole cut-scene play out or he'll
still be alive afterwards. Jump on top then onto the second floor, and then
follow the path to the left and Exit through the door.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 5 Tarkata

Back in the large room, follow the path so you end up on the small area above
the fan. 4 Tarkata will then ambush you. Make sure that ALL of them are thrown 
into the blades of the fan, as it will destroy the fan and a blade will lodge
in the wall. Jump onto the blade and follow the small route to the large button
on the floor. Step on it to release a weapon needed nearer the start, then jump
back onto the floor and Exit through the stairs you entered originally by.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 8 Skulls, X Tarkata

Like before, avoid the boulders and skulls that attack and make your way
back across the gauntlet.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 3 Tarkata, 2 Putrid Corpses

In this room, go far left and wait for the Tarkata to climb the foreground wall
first before you throw him back over it. Pick up the sword that has appeared
and slash the hanging bodies on either side of the door. The door is now open
so go inside.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 2 Shadow Priests, X Tarkata (S.P.'s can spawn them)

Wow, that's a big green ball of.....stuff......First things first, kill the
Shadow Priests before anything else as they can regenerate Tarkata enemies.
Kill any leftover foes and then focus on the Orb. To destroy it, you must stand
right next to it and perform the Fist of Ruin about 6 times. When it has been
broken, Exit.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 3 Tarkata, 2 Putrid Corpses

Go through the door in the middle............yep, thats about it....

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 8 Tarkata

Do the same as before, launch half of the Tarkata into the ceiling and kill
the others to gain vital EXP. before leaving.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 6 Tarkata

Back in the Hub, I'd save your game before moving onto the Red Path. A yellow
beam of light proves you have completed that path so if it doesn't appear, its
either a glitch or you haven't followed this guide very well. More likely a 
glitch though.....:-)

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
                                    RED PATH
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
ENEMY: 3 Tarkata, 2 Putrid Corpses

When you enter, there is the door you've just come from, one in the middle and
one to the far left. Go to the one in the middle, dealing with any particular
enemies that may get in your way.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 4 Tarkata

Ignore all the Tarkata here. Long jump from the start and climb the wall to
evade them. Follow the path left and Exit.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 3 Masked Guards

As you can see, a running path of spikes is there to stop you, but it is very
predictable timing so you shouldn't have any trouble dodging it. At the moment
you can only move along one path, so jump over the spikes until you reach the
safety zone and a T.Y.M lever. To succeed you must not only pull the lever when
the bar is high enough but also time it so the wall crushes the Masked Guard 
and jams in the ground. Complete it, then head to where the wall just went down
where there is another lever which works the opposite wall. Kill the guard
successfully and move along the resultant path to the final lever of this area.
This guard spends a little less time patrolling in the right area so be 
accurate with your timing. Head back, avoiding the spikes, to where the last 
guard was, then follow along the new path, still with spikes, until you reach
the door at the end. Well desreved too after all that....

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: ??? Tarkata (too many to stand and count otherwise you'd die)

Do NOT attack anyone as they will beat you to a pulp. Just peg it to the door
on the opposite side to safety.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 2 Shadow Priests, 2 Tarkata

In here is another T.Y.M device, but before it can be activated all of the 
enemies must be killed.

*Shoot the Gold Koin for a Secret Koin.

Try throwing an enemy through the relevant wall to get a clearer shot at it.
Grab it, then launch any remaining enemies into the ceiling for instant kills.
Now you can use the T.Y.M to open the door near the beginning. Complete it
and leave.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: Again, don't bother counting, just say ??? Tarkata

Leg it leg it leg it leg it leg it.........just don't get hit and Exit ASAP.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 3 Masked Guards

Like before, avoid the spike floors but also deal with the Masked Guard that 
blocks your path. The other 2 can be left alone so just Exit back to the start.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 4 Tarkata

To save you from damage, use this simple trick: Go to the very edge of the
climbable wall then Long Jump to land directly in front of the Exit and save
yourself from harm. Always works

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 3 Tarkata, 2 Putrid Corpses

Back in the main area of the Red Path, simply take the left door before you
get hurt by anyone.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 1 Shadow Priest, 8 Tarkata, 1 Bloody Skeleton

Before going through the door on the left, kill all the enemies to gain some 
EXP. and break any pots for health and such.

*Kill the Skeleton for a Secret Koin

Use weapons on the floor to get your reward from the roaming skeleton in the
background.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 3 Tarkata, Orochi Hellbeast BOSS

Once inside, the Orochi Hellbeast appears. Deal with him but don't leave just 
yet...look in the far-right corner at the pedestal that sticks out...

*Stand on the pedestal until it sinks for a Secret Koin.

Now you can go.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 1 Shadow Priest, 8 Tarkata, 1 Bloody Skeleton

Ignore the enemies this time round, just get out of there.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 3 Tarkata, 2 Putrid Corpses

As before, go to the far-right door to avoid much damage from enemies. Or...

*Throw an enemy into each iron maiden trap to reveal a Secret Koin.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 6 Tarkata

Back in the Hub, Save again so you don't have to do all of that again. Where
there was a wall has opened up a new area, opposite the Save Point so proceed
with caution.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: Baraka BOSS

Here is where you fight Baraka, who may be the most annoying Boss in the whole
game, but makes it all the more fullfilling once he gets it. Beating him
reveals the 3rd Victory Koin, but it is out of reach, so take the orange Portal
that has appeared.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
                                 WU-SHI ACADEMY
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
ENEMY: 2 Tarkata

Yes, you're back here once again, but not for very long. Remember where that
statue in the water flow was? Go to it and break it with the Fist of Ruin.
Jump down into the newly opened section and grab the Flaming koin for the Wall
Run ability. Get back out of there and then back through the Portal you arrived
by.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
                                   SOUL TOMBS
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
ENEMY: None

With the new ability, Wall-Run up the wall to claim the Koin. Grab the EXP.
that appears then go back through the door, not the Portal otherwise its a 
very long trip.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 6 Tarkata

Exit the Hub by the stairs next to the Save point.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: None

Go through the Portal to leave this place once and for all.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
                                  THE PORTAL
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
ENEMY: 4 Skulls, 4 Shadow Priests, 1 Demon Captain

Now you're back here, jump back to the ground and go towards the big blue
Portal to the left. Jump inside.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
                                 THE PORTAL II
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
ENEMY: 4 Shadow Priests, X Tarkata (S.P's can spawn them)

You have to believe me on this, but first off, let a Shadow Priest spawn a
Tarkata before you kill both of the purple floating people. If 2 of them are
spawned it doesn't matter that much. Lure, or throw if need be, a Tarkata onto
the gold MK dragon logo on the floor of the main area ahead of you.

*Perform a Fatality on the MK logo for a Secret Koin

With that done, go into the alcove to the right and start wall-jumping to reach
the top. To the left is another alcove to wall-jump soget going. To the right
on that floor are 2 Shadow Priests that have to be killed before the entrance
is raised. Do your business, but quickly before they spawn enemies, then go
inside.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
                                THE WASTELANDS
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
ENEMY: 3 Red Dragon Mercs, 3 Black Dragon Mercs

Not much here in terms of rewards. Ignore the enemies as they tend to fight
each other rather than you. Grab a sword from the ground then climb the wall
next to the large metal gate. Cross the gap and then the wooden bridge. 2 Mercs
will appear, 1 red, 1 Black. Take out the Red Merc, then proceed to the large
pile of flesh blocking an entrance. Use the sword to get rid of it but before
you enter, go back and left of the bridge to find the 3rd Health Booster Koin.
Now go inside the entrance.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 10+ Elemental Knights

This part can, and will, get tough. The pool of blood with Raiden's staff in
it is the only way to defeat the Elemental Knights. Lure or throw as many as 
possible into the pool so that when the lightning strikes, they are killed. Be
aware you can be hurt by the electricity too. Once all of them are dead and
Raiden disappears, use the T.Y.M device on the right to open the gate in the
previous area, then Exit.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 3 Red Dragon Mercs, 3 Black Dragon Mercs

Go through the gate and Exit the main area. Use the Save Point for halth if you
have to.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: Sub-Zero BOSS, X Bloody Skeletons

Sub-Zero will attack you, but after a duel and some interference, Sub-Zero will
aid you along the resultant boat trip along the river. Stick towards the middle
to avoid he flames on either side that appear, and simply throw the Bloody
Skeltons over the side so you gain minimal damage. At the end of the ride,
use the Fist of Ruin a couple of times to break the door that Sub-Zero freezes 
for you, then go inside.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: X Black/Red Dragon Mercs (until the climbable wall is created)

In here, simply throw all the enemies into the spiked wheel so that eventually
Sub-Zero can freeze the blood and allow you to climb up to the Exit.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 2 Black Dragon Mercs (if you follow the guide)

Go down to where the 2 Black Dragon Mercs are waiting. Kill 1 ONLY, and throw
the other into the hole below so that they can't re-spawn any more of them.
When the wall is frozen, Wall-Run along to the other side. Save for health,
then go inside for a confontation.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: Goro BOSS

Goro does not look happy. He'll look even worse by the end of it though. Grab 
the Victory Koin and you gain the Double-Jump ability. Take the resultant EXP.
and get out of there.

*Re-enter this room for a Secret koin

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 2 Black Dragon Mercs

Back out here, look in the far corner for a Gold Koin to shoot.

*Shoot the Gold koin for a Secret Koin.

After claiming your reward, Long Jump over the gap and jump into the orange
Portal that has appeared by the entrance.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
                                   THE DEADPOOL
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
ENEMY: X Putrid Corpses, X Bloody Skeletons (until all hooks have been used)

Its such a shame you aren't here for very long, you could have hours of fun.

*Throw enough enemies into the acid to reveal a Secret Koin.

After that fun, you have to launch an enemy onto the swinging hooks that hang
over the pathway. There are 5 in all and sometimes they require accurate aims.
Fill the spaces and another Flaming koin appears, allowing you to swing on 
beams. Use this ability to swing across the acid floor and reach the Exit
Portal.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
                                THE PORTAL II
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
ENEMY: 2 Shadow Priests, X Tarkata (Yeah, you know about spawning....)

All thats left now is that final Victory Koin. To find it, or at least, the
person in possessio of it, jump back to the floor and go left. Using your new
ability, swing from beam to beam until you reach the top, where 2 Shadow 
Priests are waiting for you. Kill them both quickly, or if not, kill them and
any spawns they make, then head into the Portal.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
                               THE NETHERREALM
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
ENEMY: 2 Bloody Skeletons, Scorpion BOSS, Inferno Scorpion BOSS

Save as soon as you arrive because you have 2 Boss fights awaiting you. Once
both are out of the way, grab the final Victory Koin and the EXP generously
left behind. After that its back to where you came from through the Portal.
A very short area in terms of doing stuff.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
                                THE PORTAL II
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
ENEMY: 2 Shadow Priests, X Tarkata

Now you have enough Tournament Victories, the large door that was originally
shut is now open. At the end of its corridor is the Portal that takes you to
the final area of the game....

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
                                  THE FOUNDRY
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
ENEMY: 3 Oni, 2 Demon Archers

As soon as you arrive, it would be a good idea to save at the Save Point in the
lobby. Afterwards, go right and down the tunnel. At the end is a T.Y.M that
needs doing. Succeeding will unlock half of a gate you need to pass through
later. Go back out and up the ramp on the left. After the FMV, go left along
the corridor of the crushing pistons to the other T.Y.M in this area, as it
unlocks the other half of the gate. Come back to the Save point and go forward
to the double doors at the end, hopefully Exiting before the Demon Archers can
get a quick shot at you.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: None

In this area, you need to be careful to not get TOASTY! in the lava floor, as
you need to go to the door across the lava lake to the far right corner.
If you can't see it well, there is a barrel on the same pavement as the door.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: X Demon Archers/Captains (until Axe is created)

See that smouldering fire in the oven? You need to throw 2 enemies into that,
but for some reason it only counts Demon Captains, I'm not sure why....still,
throwing all the enemies in there doesn't do anyone any harm.....except them...
anyway, kill them to unlock the door and move to the next area.

*UPDATE*

I discovered it does NOT matter which enemy is thrown into the fire, just as 
long as they are thrown on top so it counts to creating the Axe in the process.


^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: Orochi Hellbeast BOSS, X Demon Generals for hooks (+2 on the 2nd floor)

As soon as play begins, take down the Orochi Hellbeast ASAP. To advance here,
throw, or preferably launch, the 2 Demon Generals onto the 2 hooks in the 
opposite corners of the room. Doing it reveals a climbable wall in the far-
right corner. Climb up it and go right, Long-Jumping over the pool of lava to
find another T.Y.M. Beat it to unlock the door in the corner in the other
direction. Long-Jump back over it, avoiding the 2 other Genrals up there. For
fun, throw them into the lava that's there, then Wall-Run up diagonally but
avoid the spikes as well. Go through the door to move on.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 1 Demon General, 2 Demon Captains

This area is pretty simple: Kill the 3 enemies to proceed (A Demon General, a
Demon Captain and a Demon Archer) and unlock the door on the other side of the 
room. Exit through the door afterwards.

*UPDATE*

There isn't a Demon Archer, just another Demon Captain

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: None

Following the path of the Axe,  go down the steps and Long Jump back to the
entrance, but go up the climbable wall to the door where the Axe is being
held.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 1 Demon General, 1 Demon Captain, 1 Demon Archer

The final T.Y.M in the game is here (XD YAY!) and completing it gives you 
axe-ess (that was really bad....) to the Axe. Grab it when it drops, then Exit
before the Demons can harm you.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: NONE

Go back down and through the door you originally cam through that leads back 
to the lobby.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 5 Oni, 4 Demon Archers, 2 Demon Handlers

Run back to the Save Point and up the ramp before you get hurt. Turn right and
you will go through the gate you unlocked earlier. Up the steps are 2 large
crystals that hold the door in front of you closed. Break them by using the O
smash with the Axe. After the 2nd crystal breaks, multiple enemies appear who
are a little bit miffed about the expensive jewelry you just destroyed. Take
them out, and then wait for the doors to open before you proceed.

*UPDATE*

Enemies here include 2 Demon Handlers, Archers, and 2 oni that must be killed.
</pre><pre id="faqspan-2">
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: 3 Demon Handlers

Not much here really. Climb the very long steps and into the prison cells.
In the cell on the right is Kitana. Talk to her 4 times to unlock the door to
your right. 3 Demon Handlers appear but the Axe should take care of them. Go
through.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Enemy: Kano BOSS

Defeating Kano gives you that final Health Boost and some more EXP. Exit.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: None

Back in the cells, Save your progress befroe heading through the door at the
end. 

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ENEMY: Shang Tsung BOSS, Kintaro BOSS, Shao Kahn BOSS

3 final challenges await....prepare for the end.....
