Star Fox Adventures/Rescuing Tricky

Ice Mountain

You will be transported to a cavern. Head out of it and you will notice two blue Sharpclaw. A ship will hover over the them and Prince Tricky will be deported to the surface. The Sharpclaw bully him for a moment and then take him into a cavern on the right, which slams shut once they enter.

Head foward a little bit until you see a small passage on the left. It leads to a platform that is host to a new kind of fuel barrel. (It has a red dot on it.) Grab the barrel and head to the group of boxes on the right a few ways up. (If you do not get rid of the barrel soon enough, it will explode.) There are two Sharpclaw for you two battle. Defeat them and a red square will appear over the cave where Tricky is. Shoot it with the fire blaster. The square will turn green, and you will be free to enter.

You will see the Sharpclaw torturing Tricky. Fox stops them and introduces himself. Tricky escapes during this time and the Sharpclaw push Fox aside, board their riders (or whatever those things are) and chase after him. Fox boards one of their spare riders and chases after them.

The Chase

• : Accelerate
• : Brake

There are some things you can do to help you pass the Sharpclaw. You can ram them in the back to destroy them. (It will take afew hits.) Be careful to avoid the bombs they leave behind. They will slow you down. Also, look for shortcuts throughout the race. You can speed over hills or travel on alternate paths to further your chances of passing the Sharpclaw.

Tricky

When Fox reaches the end of the path, he slips on the ice and lands in a hot tub below. Tricky will say something to Fox but it will be in the dinosaur language and Fox won't understand. Fox then applies his translator and he is able to communicate with Tricky. He informs him that his father has been captured and that his mother sent him to rescue him.

Head straight and follow the path until you reach the pit of lava. There is now way to cross, so take the trail to the left. Tricky will spot two Blue GrubTub Fungi, an earthwalker's favorite treat. Stun them with your sword and obtain them. Now, stand next to trick and use to feed him. (When a red mushroom is over Tricky's head, he is hungry. Pay attention to his energy monitor.)

Tricky feels strong enough to work now. He tells you about his Find Secret command. When a question mark is displayed over his head, there is a secret nearby. When there is a crack in the ground, Tricky can dig in that spot. Notice a crack in the ground near the fire. Have trick dig it up. It is a switch. Now, positon Tricky so that he is sitting on the switch. Open the C-Inventory. Look for a hand - that is his Stay command. There is a switch in the cave the gate was blocking. Use your staff to activate it. A platform will rise out of the lava, providing a method of geting across.

Cross the lava pit. (Don't worry, Tricky will find a way of getting across.) Keep along the path (get the Blue GrubTub) and you will see a crack in the wall at the end. Another function of Tricky's find secret command is digging through walls like these (with cracks in them.) Once across the wall, keep along the path and you will ente Snowhorn Wastes.
