TOMBA
Books: Playstation Secret Codes - Secret Codes 2003
Biting Plant Flower
Near the begining of the game, at the Village of all beginings. You will
find a row of the pumpkin-like plants with a Kokka bird, a Koma pig
and a blue apple resting on top of them.
Kill the bird and pig and then knock the apple off the right and edge
by either throwing an enemy at it or hitting it with your Black Jack weapon.
The apple should fall into the mouth of a biting plant below which
should bloom into a flower. This may be repeatable in other areas,
but I haven't found one where an apple is situated perfectly over
a biting plant.

Iron Boomerang
In Phoenix Mountain, around the area where the "What's a Funga?"
event is found, there are wooden bars. You need to reach the top
bar. Before heading out, though, you need the following to be equipped:
Flash Pants/Psychic Fish
Funky Parasol
Grapplejack
Good. Now swing Northeast on the highest bar. If you have difficulty,
use the Grapplejack to cling to a bar. You should be at either a bunch
of egg plants, or a chest. At the plants, just gently drop down, open
the chest for the awesome power of the Iron Boomerang. It can be
thrown 3 times in a row. I recommend sticking to your Grapplejack, though.
Just a Mean Old Man!
Don't collect any of the kokka eggs and then go to the 100 year
old wise men. He will then get mad and order you to get the eggs.
Then he will kick you out the window.
Leaf Butterflies
If you've restored the Forest Of All Beginnings and still need those
butterflies, just slide down on the hill before the area of the baked
yam. 25 Leaf Butterflies will come out. Collect them then head to
the Deep Jungle for the other 4. Once you have all 29 you'll get a
Golden Butterfly, one of the 5 rare golden items.
Lumberjack Factory Quirk
Tomba must have the grapplejack to do this. Go to the Lumberjack
Factory in the Village of Civilization. Climb up onto the platform
with the two people. Stand next to the one with the brown hair and
jump into the air, throwing your grapple to the left. The grapplejack
should catch in midair right over the house and Tomba will be hanging
almost sideways. Then let go of the grapplejack and push to the right
as Tomba falls. Tomba then will fall into the cage with the purple
monster. If you press to the right Tomba continues to walk off the
edge of the platform and into midair! You can jump back to where
you started from with no problem.
Mean Wise Man
In the Village of All Beginings, don't open any Kokka eggs. Instead,
go directly to the 100 Year Old Wise Man. He will order you to get
the other chicks and throw you out the window!
Restore health
Save and reload the saved game.
Alternately, you can restore health by talking to the 100 year-old wise man.
The 8th Evil Pig
After you defeat all seven evil pigs, go to the strange small room
in the underground mines, they will tell you that you need to find
seven friends to stand on the platforms. Do this and battle the
8th evil pig!
The Green Pig
To get to the green pig, first you must go to Mushroom Forest and
obtain laughing status. Then go to the haunted mansion near Baskar
Village. Go on the slide with two pig snouts, and travel to the SMILE!
door. Look up and laugh. The door will open and (if you have the green
pig bag) there will be the green pig gate. Jump into it.
When fighting the pig, jump on him and throw him into the Pig Bag
when it's turned your way. Congrats, now you can travel through
the Lava Caves.
The Orange Pig
To get to this pig, you need to ride the Phoenix to the jungle, keep
going to you get to the first cage. Now keep going left till you get
to a tree you can climb on. Go up to the top, and jump to into the
evil pig gate (providing you have the orange pig bag.)
Kill him by throwing him into the bag as it turns your way.
The Yellow Pig
This one's easy, but you'll need the grappel and you must defeat the
green pig first or you will not be able to pass the fire.
Go to the Lava Caves at the end of Storm Mountian. Grappel up on
the first pumpkin branch then do that to another that should be
around the top right segment of the screen. Next jump over on
the ledge and there will be the Pig Gate (You must have the Yellow
Pig Bag). Now just do the same thing you did to defeat the green pig.
WOW! Don't you just love a remodeled Haunted Mansion!
Water Pig
To defeat the Water Pig you must go to the Underground Maze.
If you haven't gotten that far yet you need to go to the watch
tower. There is a weak, wooden wall in the Watch Tower. Hit it
hard and there is a elevator. To operate it you must go to the
Clock Tower in the Village of Civilization and get it going. Once you
do, go back to the elevator and go down to the Underground Maze
to the blue fortune teller. Get him to tell you your fortune then go
to the Mushroom Forest. Go to the left side of Mushroom Forest,
and ride the boat to the beach. There will be two doors, the one on
the left should be open. Go into it until you reach a room with
swinging chandeliers. You will see a gate ( If you have the blue pig
bag) and it is the same as the yellow pig to defeat. That will then
clear up Trick Village.
Yan and the Golden Bowl
To find Yan you first find him in the first house of the forest of
all beginnings (he's the dark guy looking at the window), but you
won't know who he is until you go to the Hidden Village (in the lava
caves, you need the grapple, top left corner) and talk to his dad
and he'll give you Yan's lunchbox.
Go back to Yan and he'll leave. He will then be at the Charity Square
where the Leaf Butterflies were, then at the Funga Jungle in the
background on the top of the wood structure, then at the Stormy
Mountain in the smiling door (need to be in laughing status), then in
the haunted house where the singing pirate is (past the straws,
need the Fire Jewel), and finally at the north of his village.
After you get him the last time he will give you the Golden Bowl,
which gives you double power.
