| The White Tailed Lizards | 100% | |
| At each temple where you can save your game and heal yourself, look around for a lizard with a white tail. If you kill them, you can eat their tail by pressing the R1 Button while standing next to them. Doing so will cause your strength meter to glow. In the demo, these made your strength go up. However, now it is much easier to just continue fighting the Colossi to make your strength increase. You can always find one in or around a save point. As you can see from the map, they are not only limited to the save shrines. | ||

On the Normal difficulty setting, the following bonus items will be unlocked, in order: Whistling Arrow: Distracts a Colossus Cloak of Force: Sword damages a Colossus more Mask of Strength: Inflict greater wounds to a Colossus Lizard Detection Stone: Detects white tailed lizards Fruit Tree Map: Reveals the Fruit Trees on map Mask of Power: Inflict greater wounds to a Colossus Cloak of Deception: Invisible to a Colossus Flash Arrow: Explodes when hits Colossus Brown Horse: Hold Square to start game at the main menu to get a brown horse While playing Time Attack mode on the Hard difficulty setting, the following bonus items will be unlocked, in order: Harpoon Of Thunder Sword Of The Sun: Light beacon operates in patches of shadow Fruit Tree Map: Reveals the Fruit Trees on map Shaman's Cloak: Increase defense and lessen damage Lizard Detection Stone: Detects white tailed lizards Shaman's Mask: Increase defense Cloth Of Desperation: Parachute for safe landing Queen's Sword From Ico # Secret garden Successfully complete all four modes and have a large amount of stamina. Then, climb the back of the temple you first started in. Climb up the ivy and follow the trail all the way up and around the ledge to the right. Jump across at the other end of the ledge to reach the next set of ivy. Continue on until you get to another ledge above that you must climb around. Once at the other side of this ledge, climb to the right then shimmy across another ledge that leads behind a column. Jump to the ivy-covered column, then continue climbing. The ivy will lead to a walkway. Climb the stairs and walkway to the left of the garden. A sequence will begin and the seventeenth Colossi will appear. Defeat the Colossi to open the path to the top of the temple. Note: Eating fruit from the trees in the garden causes damage. It is possible to reach the Secret Garden early. Find the patch of ivy behind the Temple you start at (almost directly under the huge bridge you came in on). If your grip meter is high enough, you can just jump straight up the side until you reach the first ledge, which has a small patch of leaves on it. Position yourself directly under that patch of leaves. Continue to hold Grip/Duck and jump straight up. Your character will immediately duck in those leaves, allowing you to refill any lost grip. Then, continue around and up the side until you reach the path leading to the garden. # Ico reference Have a saved game file from Ico on your memory card to change the diamond-shaped mark on Agro's head to the "I" from the Ico logo. # Control intermission sequences During all intermission sequences, the view can be moved and zoomed in. You can also allow the game to idle during the introduction sequence to see Agro exploring the world without Wander. This sequence can also be controlled. Use the Right Analog-stick to change the angle and R1 and R2 to zoom in and out. # Alternate introduction sequence Turn on the game and let the introduction sequence begin where your character is riding Agro. Press Start so that the title screen appears. Allow the game idle and a new introduction sequence will appear. This time, the setting is where you last saved a game. It will show your character resting or sleeping at the altar. Then, Agro will start walking away and begin to run and roam all over the open area. Additionally, save the game after completing it. Turn off the PlayStation 2, then turn it back on. Allow the introduction sequence to begin, where your character is riding Argo. Press Start so that the title screen appears. Allow the game to idle, and a new introduction sequence will begin. Instead of Argo roaming all over the world, you will now follow a hawk, soaring over the canyons and plains. # Alternate ending sequence Eat fruit from the Secret Garden to reduce your HP as much as possible. Dormin will now be killed when shot by the crossbow, and will alter the following sequences. # Ride a hawk, bird, lizard, or eel Sneak up behind them and press R1. # Standing gallop Press R1 + X. # 180 gallop turn Quickly press Left Analog-stick Down + X, Left Analog-stick Down + X. # Quick gallop stop Press Left Analog-stick Down + X. # Rearing Argo While stationary on Argo's back, quickly pull the Left Analog-stick Back + X. Argo will rear, then quickly bolt forward at a gallop. This is useful for getting away from a Colossus quickly. # Powerful attack While fighting a Colossus, press Triangle, R1 + Square to do about twice as much damage as a normal hit. Make sure you do not fall off the Colossus when doing this move. # Enter the large room where Colossus 6 came from Get the sixth Colossus as close as possible to the large room where he came out of, then wait until he smashes the floor with his hand. Note: This may take awhile. When he smashes his hand down, make sure he is still as close as possible to the large room. Immediately after he smashes the floor, grab onto his arm/hand fur. He will start flinging you around with his arm violently. If he swings his arm when you are near the large room, release his arm and you will hopefully be flung into the large room. This may require a few attempts. The large room has a strange large blue central symbol on the floor. Also, the Colossus just stands as close as possible to the edge of the room endlessly walking forward and stomping the floor. # Cloth Of Desperation glitch Unlock the Cloth Of Desperation, then defeat a Colossus. As the black strings are headed towards you, use the Cloth Of Desperation by jumping and pressing Crouch/Grab. If you are using it when the strings hit you, the game will glitch. You will be surrounded by the parachute in the shape of a clam shell when you fall to the ground. Whether you save the game or not, after you wake up in the castle it will still be glitched. To exit, get on Agro, use the Cloth Of Desperation again, or climb. # Defeating Colossus 2 Defeating this Colossus requires patience and moderate skill with the bow. When the Colossus raises its forefeet to stomp on you, have an arrow drawn to full with the controller vibrating. Keep a bead on the Colossus' foot, and you will notice that the bottom glows. Release the arrow when the foot is almost on you. The Colossus' leg will fold, giving you an opportunity to climb up onto its back. The rest is quite simple, as it is a quadripedal Colossus. # Defeating Colossus 3 This Colossus has a huge stone bar in place of a hand and can either slam it straight down or on an angle. Do not get hit, as it will take a lot of time to get up again. When he slams it down on an angle, it will stick in the ground for a few seconds. You can then jump onto it and run up to the Colossus' arm. While you can do this, it will not do much good as you cannot get past the armor. As you run around, look for a large, circular stone platform. Stand on it and let the Colossus try to hit you. Dodge, and it will smash down onto the platform. The armor on its arm will shatter, allowing you to climb up to its head and jam your sword in him. After a few of hits, it will change and be on the Colossus' stomach. # Colossi locations Each individual Colossus can be found at the following map coordinates: 1: F-5 2: F-3 3: E-2 4: G-5 5: H-4 6: D-6 7: D-1 8: G-6 9: D-3 10: B-4 11: F-1 12: G-2 13: E-6 14: C-2 15: G-1 16: F-8 | ||

| The Short Way to the Secret Garden | 98% | |
| You do not need to win the game 4 times to reach the secret garden. All you have to do is familiarize yourself with the diagonal jump. When you grab a climbable wall (usually listed by the moss growing on it), you have to hold jump and the left analog stick diagonally up until your character swings his arm, depending on what direction you tilted the analog stick. Once he does this, let go of jump and you will scale the wall diagonally without using a large amount of stamina. Before you decide to reach the secret garden, it is advisable to complete about 7 colossi for the sole reason of acquiring enough stamina to take on this task. You could also search for white-tailed lizards as an alternative to gain stamina. To reach the secret garden, you have to locate the wall of ivy on the northeast side of the temple shrine. If you use your horse and jump off of him towards the wall of ivy, you will save even more stamina. Now, follow it all the way up until you reach a ledge on the right. Go around it while still using the diagonal jump to save stamina. On the opposite side, leap across to the visible moss and keep going around the 2nd ledge above. Once you get to other side, you have to go around yet another ledge, which is a little bit below your position. You will reach a circular pillar that you have to jump onto. This is easily done by situating yourself directly opposite of it and then jumping across. Hold on and keep going up. The moss will lead you a little bit towards the left to a small walkway. Follow the stairs to the secret garden. Enjoy, but do not eat the fruit, as it will decrease your health permanently. | ||

| The Fruit of the Dead | 98% | |
| Each time you beat a Colossus, your strength meter will increase. If you make it large enough, you will be able to climb up the back of the temple you 1st start in. Up top, you will find the courtyard from the end of the game and the bridge that you entered on. There isn't much to do here, but you will find some fruit in the trees. Shoot it down and eat it and you will decrease your health and strength meters. The only reason you might want to do this is if your strength meter is getting so big it is taking up too much of your field of view. To get there, run around behind your begining shrine. There is a patch of ivy that you can climb up. When you're climbing, jumping in a diagonal or sideways direction causes your strength meter to decrease less than a straight climb or jump. Make your way up and then around the scaffolding up to the top. | ||
