Walkthrough Part 4 - Basics of the Game

Jiggies

You start out in a place called Showdown Town, this is your overworld that links you to all 6 game worlds and provides some very important things. Number 1 being the Jig-o-vends. These gumball-machine style devices allow you to take your Jiggy's to the Jiggy bank. Once you complete a challenge your Jiggy will be added to that worlds Jig-O-Vend. Jig-O-Vends containing Jiggies will appear with a Jiggy icon on your map. Once you approach one if it has Jiggy's a large number will appear above it saying how many Jiggies are in it. Park your trolley on the pad and find the nearby Mumbo Switch and press X then spin your control stick until all of your Jiggies have been popped out. If you parked the Trolley correctly they should land right inside, if not you can walk up to the Jiggy to highlight it and press the left trigger to pick it up and set it in your trolley. From here you can drive under the large Jiggy bank in front of Mumbo's motors which will suck all of the Jiggies out of your Trolley into the Jiggy Bank to be counted. If you do not put your Jiggies in the bank they are not counted towards your total and will remain in the Jig-O-Vends.

Music Notes

There are 200 music notes scattered in each game world and several in Showdown Town along with earning them for collecting Jinjos, Minjos, and completing Klungo's Arcade. Music Notes are the currency in Showdown Town, you can purchase upgrades for Banjo such as strength, speed, and health from Boggy's Gym and vehicle parts and blue prints from Wumba's shop in Showdown Town.

Jinjos

After talking to the chief of police he will show you that some Jinjos have been arrested and state that they are not to be let out. There are 6 in Showdown town and you must find the mumbo switch to release them. Doing so earns you some music notes. Afterwards Pikelete will tell you that you better find him a replacement prisoner. Near where you freed the Jinjos you should hear some evil laughing of a Minjo. Hit them with your Trolley or wrench and put them into the cargo area drive up to the nearest jail and he will be trapped rewarding you a few more notes. In each of the game world acts there are a few Jinjo's around too that will give you challenges once you find them. Doing so will give you a Jinjo token. These are mostly easier than Jiggy challenges, but some can be quite difficult. Also, by default Jinjo's do not show up on your map, however you can get the spec-o-spy vehicle part in one of the Mumbo crates in Showdown town which will dispaly the Jinjo's on your map as long as it's equipped to your vehicle.

Vehicle Parts

Vehicle parts are acquired throughout the game by either carrying mumbo boxes to the square pad outside Mumbo's Motors then talking to him or talking to Humba Wumba to purchase parts for notes. To get additional parts for your trolley you must defeat Gruntilda in all of her special challenge missions.
