Gashead-64 Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 (edited) Road Map: Overview: - Estimated trophy difficulty: 8/10 (Trophy Difficulty Rating) - Total Trophies (breakdown): 12 (1 , 4 , 7 ) - Offline Trophies (breakdown): 12 (1 , 4 , 7 ) - Online Trophies (breakdown): 0 - Approximate amount of time to 100%: 8-12 hours (Estimated Time to 100%) - Minimum number of playthroughs needed: 3 (1 Castle Mode, 1 Challenge Mode and 1 game of arcade mode) - Number of missable trophies: 0 - Glitched trophies: None - Do cheat codes disable trophies?: No codes available for Arkedo Series - 02 Swap! Introduction: Arkedo Series 02 - Swap! is a fun retro game where you play as King Kat. First, you need to help King Kat get back to his castle, then you complete challenges with him. The game is a bit like Bejewelled, you have to match 4 or more of the same coloured blocks up horizontally or vertically. Walkthrough: Step 1: Credits As soon as you load up the game you may as well earn a really easy ! Scroll through the credits and you will unlock Accredited Gamer Step 2: Castle Mode Complete all 5 chapters of Castle Mode to earn Claim your castle!. This also unlocks Challenge Mode. Step 3: Arcade Mode In Arcade Mode you need to get 40,000 points for Prince of my Castle, 60,000 points for King of my Castle, and 80,000 points for Emperor of my Castle. Step 4: Challenge Mode To unlock Challenge Mode, you need to complete Castle Mode. There are 16 challenges in Challenge Mode. You need to complete them all to unlock Unchallenged. Also, during Challenge Mode you will have to make a X4 combo and blast 10 blocks at once, which each have a trophy of their own. Therefore, if you don't get them on Steps 2 or 3 then don't spend time in Arcade Mode for them because you will just have to do them again in Challenge Mode. Step 5: Clean Up Now, you will need to farm all the cumulative total trophies. Keep doing double deckers, blasting thunder blocks, freezing time and collecting treasures (if you still need to).

Gashead-64 Posted September 25, 2011 Author Share Posted September 25, 2011 (edited) Trophies http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1189/01.jpgClaim your castle! Achieve the Castle Mode There are 5 chapters in Castle Mode: A sunny meadow (Goal: level speed 5) The gloomy village (Goal: level speed 7) Sunset canyon (Goal: level speed 6) The haunted swamp (Goal: level speed 8) The Castle’s dungeon (Goal: level speed 9) To complete a chapter you have to reach the specified level speed. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1189/02.jpgPrince of my Castle Score more than 40.000 points in Arcade Mode. See Emperor of my Castle. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1189/03.jpgKing of my Castle Score more than 60.000 points in Arcade Mode. See Emperor of my Castle. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1189/04.jpgEmperor of my Castle Score more than 80.000 points in Arcade Mode. I recommend choosing easy difficulty for this one. Thunder blocks, time blocks, and combos are key to achieving this. Four time freeze blocks are not that useful, you need 5+ to make it worthwhile, and if you are near the top, thunder blocks are the best way to recover. Also, to get this quicker, do X4, X5, or even X6 combos. From FDC1: "Fastest way is to choose easy mode and go for a x5 or x6 combo. You can get the 3 trophies in 1minute if you're good/lucky enough." http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1189/05.jpgUnchallenged Complete all the challenges. There are 16 challenges to complete. They are: Blast 7 blocks at once Make a X2 combo Coins, diamonds, & treasures: get 3 at once Score 10000 points Die with 0 points Blast 9 blocks at once Make a X4 combo Coins, diamonds, & treasures: get 5 at once Score 25000 points Make a Clear Bonus Blast 10 blocks at once Make a X10 combo Coins, diamonds, & treasures: get 8 at once Score 50000 points End chapter 5 with only one chain reaction Beat the developers See the following Supplement by Zetberg for info on how to complete all 16 challenges: LINK http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1189/06.jpgTreasure hunter Collect 1.000 treasures. Cumulative total, just keep playing and you will get this. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1189/07.jpgThunder God Activate 1.000 thunder blocks. Cumulative total, just keep playing and you will get this. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1189/08.jpgDouble Decker addict Make 222 Double Deckers. A double decker is when you stack 3 of the same colour on top of a different 3 of the same colour, then swap 2 blocks around to make 2 sets of 4 blast at the same time. It’s a cumulative total so just try to do as many as you can in all modes. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1189/09.jpgTime Master Freeze time to one hour When you match up 4 or more of the blocks with clocks on them, it freezes time for a second or 2 so this trophy is going to be a bit of a grind. All you can do is just freeze time as often as you can. Try to match up 5, 6 or even 7 time freeze blocks as this will freeze time for a lot longer than 4 will. Matching 7 freeze blocks up will freeze time for around 20 seconds. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1189/10.jpgBlock buster Make a X4 combo To make a X4 combo you need to blast some blocks, then 4 more sets of blocks get blasted without you “swapping” blocks. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1189/11.jpgMaxi-match Match a 10 bricks shape To match a 10 brick shape, you need to have a spare blue near the top. Now, align 3 blues then leave a space, then align another 3 blues. Under the space, you need to line up another 3 blues, this time vertically then just slip the spare blue at the top in to make a "T" shape and net you this trophy. (Note: You can use any colour). Matching a 10 brick shape is also a challenge. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1189/12.jpgAccredited gamer View the credits until the end Really easy trophy, just watch the credits all the way through.

FDC1 Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 -Don't know if it can help, but you can find some the trophy icons for this game on this russian site: http://www.stratege.ru/trophies/psn/arkedo-series-02-swap -I think you underestimate the time to "100%" this game. I'd pay good money to see someone to do it in 5 hours. Let's say you take 1 hour for castle mode and arcade mode trophies, 2 hours for challenge mode trophy.That's already optimistic. No way you get "time master" in only 2 hours. I'd say 8-10 hours is already a better estimation. Hell, I even think most people will need 10-12 hours -For arcade mode, fastest way is to choose easy mode and go for a x5 or x6 combo. You can get the 3 trophies in 1mn if you're good/lucky enough.

Thanks for all that, mate. Although, we have to use images off of this site. But thanks for the other tips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_marv Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 When i was grinding for the time freeze trophy i stumbled across a way to freeze time permanently, you double decker thunder and clocks. I did 7clocks+6thunder, maybe other combos work. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to count for the trophy though, after i'd grinded a lot i left the game frozen for 30 mins n it didn't pop.

grabberke Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 Pfew, finally got all challenges (x10 is a b i t c h) 4/10 is way underrated in my opinion, should be at least 6/10 Now the boring time thing and we're at 100%... Very fun game by the way, huge value for money... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nixxx87 Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 (edited) I don't understand. I have earned Empeor of my castle and the game don't give me the other 2 trophy. Why? Edit: no problem i got them. Edited October 21, 2011 by Nixxx87 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madbuk Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 You may want to add that if you still need thunder blocks at the end (like I do) you can go to Arcade and select Normal difficulty. That way, thunder blocks will be available to you at the start of the level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raz619 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 this game was so fun to 100%. i must say freezing time was a grind & a half.pretty easy if you like puzzle games. http://i877.photobucket.com/albums/ab334/danecollins22/reymyesterio_zps01b20cdd.png http://card.psnprofiles.com/1/raz619.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasperJRPGamer Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Thanks Gashead and Zetberg for the guides! I love the Arkedo games, but holy moomoo, the challenges are so tough! Finally got the Unchallenged trophy today though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
