This game made my childhood! :) Be aware if you play the EU version on a different lang that you possibly run into one or more bugs where an achievement doesn't trigger. Happend 2 times for me on german language, thanks Alfex for fixing it so fast!

It would be nice to have a list of missable events, I found it the hard way about one that I really didn't know, if you ever plan of clearing all 130 events go to Hidden Village and speak to Yan's father before completing the Hide and Seek event

As far as I know (I ran into them in my earlier playthroughs):1) Yan's lunchbox as described (sorry Jamberman).2) The one with the barrel in the water if you destroy it.3) The one with the golden flower in dwarf village if you trigger it too late.

there's a bunch, many I probably havent found either... If you get the gold or silver medals before the lower ones, you can't get the lower ones

You can also miss the event related to the treasures at the mansion if you open all of them before triggering the event, however what annoys me is the treasure chest im missing

Maybe you missed one in the lava cave in the last area, these are the trickiest. If not I would check mushroom area (far down) and mountain area (high up) again. Also labyrinth is possible behind the digged paths.

Remember to do the event "Plant a Flower Garden" early because you can screw up if you do it in late game where only a few events are left. Check Tomba wiki for more information

Starting a list of ways to miss the 130 Events cheevo in the forum topic. https://retroachievements.org/viewtopic.php?t=5610&o=40#92372

Mastered/Masterizado/Platinado/Platina! That was a long way. But i finally made it! That pesky orange pig cheevo, i get it only when i die once and then caught it no damage. With other pigs i always load save whenever i get hit.

Anyone have a tip on the complete Treasures achievement? I'm stuck at 98% and have searched absolutely everywhere...

The achievement guide tells you which chests are in which locations, although it's still hard to remember which ones you got for the non-essential items:
https://github.com/RetroAchievements/guides/wiki/Tomba%21-%28PlayStation%29#treasure-collector-missable

I would say check the Million year old chests first, as you probably couldn't unlock them the first time you ran into them. There are some which only appear after that location has been restored. Other than that, I suggest checking all over Lava Caves and Mushroom Forest once again, as there are many over pits that are easy to miss.

Would be nice if someone would snapshot where all the chests are, but I'm afraid it won't be me. XD

Actually I got Gold Medal on First Run... And After I played again for Silver and Bronze.. is possible to get them after

How many times to master it? Just courious

williamgeesdorf 18 Dec 2022 04:08

Mastered (platinado)! Very creative and underrated game. I'll definitely play Tomba 2 too sometime.

I heard the PAL version (Tombi!) has revisions (Rev 1) for both languaged copies according to Redump. I don't what the difference are but somebody should add support for these ISOs too. Also I found Rev 1 for the version that includes Spanish is the version that wasn't originally called Rev 1 since the older version was added to Redump after the Rev 1 version and the Rev 1 version is compatible with this already when I tested it so please rename the Linked Hashes for these PAL ISOs to their updated Redump names and add 2 more versions so there'll be 4 PAL ISOs on there now.

If anyone's struggling with the chests, there's a 100 year and a 1000 year chest high up above the normal path on stormy mountain that are very easy to miss and forget (I think you're supposed to use the umbrella to get them but who wants to stick around in that wind eh?).

This was a fun game to master. As a child, I played the demo of this sooo many times, but could never find the full game anywhere. When I became older, I discovered emulators and finally completed the full game. Was a joy to play this through with achievements. Only one to watch out for really is the all chests achievement.

What an awful torture, blind jumps everywhere, even with a step by step guide is a pain . Barely reached what I wanted to get my aotw. Seriously, wasn't there a standar quality in this era already??

MahBoi 5 Mar 2023 06:48

Beginning is rough but once you get the parasol (grapple hook helps too) the platforming is a lot easier.

Interesting game, it has some significant flaws IMO but is rewarding to explore. Thanks for the set!
