Loco Roco 2: Berries Location in Tropuca and Chapo-Wahr Stages

In the first Loco Roco, collecting all 20 berries was, from my standpoint, just bragging rights to friends. This is drastically changed in Loco Roco 2 where getting all the berries in one stage means unlocking a short movie about a character in the Loco Roco world. A great reinforcement indeed!

Unfortunately, knowing the location of the berries is the easy part. Actually, for 1,000 pickories, a Mui Mui will help you find 1 berry. The problem though is getting all 20 berries has proven to be quite a challenging endeavor most especially in the 2nd and 3rd stages.

What I'll do here is to help you out on the easy part. I'll post the location of all berries in the various stages. Getting all 20 will be up to you.

Loco Roco 2: Throne of Mui Mui King

This is the location in the Mui Mui House where you will unlock the Throne of the Mui Mui King. It is located on the topmost portion of the house. In order to build it, you need the following parts:

1 Gorjan Stone
4 Great Horn
2 Pupi Weed
1000 Pickories

You can get the Gorjan Stone either from the Loco Race mini-game after playing it for about 20 times and winning 1st place or from the underground digger that appears when you quit or load a stage (the mine should be yellow / gold in color). You can get the Great Horn from the Mui Mui Crane mini-game. As for the Pupi Weed, unfortunately I could not recall where I got it and searching Google was not helpful. I will update this post once I get more information.

Once you built the Throne, the Mui Mui King would immediately appear sitting on it. All the while I thought something would happen, a new stage or mini-game would be unlocked or a new part in the Mui Mui House would appear. Guess what? Nothing! He is the King and nothing happened?!

Likewise, you may be wondering is he doing something special in the Mui Mui house? From what I am seeing, none! He just sits on the throne waving at the other Mui Muis. I think that is the reason why he is a bit soggy in the mid-section.

Loco Roco 2: Special Story Movie

You would be able to unlock this movie once you built the Special Projector in the Mui Mui House.



To do so, you need the following parts:

2 Shapola Stone
1 See-through Stone
3 Meteorite Fragment
1000 Pickories

You can get the Shapola Stone from the Chapo-Wahr stages, the See-through Stone from the Shamplin 2 stage, and the Meteorite Fragment from the Mui Mui Crane (assuming you have already unlocked it) but it is quite a common item that you can easily find in various stages.

Enjoy the movie.

Loco Roco 2: Mui Mui Friends

Click image to enlarge.

Here are all the Mui Mui Friends (13 in total) that I am able to get from the Mui Mui Crane. I think I was able to get all of them. As I mentioned in my post about the Lab Counter, you need to get the Mui Mui Friends in order to unlock some of the map parts as well as some songs in the Mui Mui House.

Loco Roco 2: Lab Counter

This is the location in the Mui Mui House where you will unlock the Mui Mui Lab Counter. It is located in the basement of the house. In order to build it, you need the following parts:

1 Ancient Tableau
2 Cheranka Tree
2 Thorn Fragment
300 Pickories

You can get the Ancient Tableau from the Mui Mui Crane, CaloCaro stages 1 and 2 (seldom though in stage 1), the Cheranka Tree is a common item that you can easily find in the various stages, and the Thorn Fragment from the Mui Mui Crane and in Tropuca stage 2 or other stages where you find the item insect.

Once you built and clicked on this house part (to click, press the button X when an exclamation point appears while placing the pointer on top of the counter), you will be able to see 4 maps that also require 3 parts. These are listed below.

Bumpy Map (Maps 1 -3)
Coarse Map (Maps 1-3)
Smudged Map (Maps 1-3)
Soggy Map (Maps 1-3)

This is the process that is still sketchy for me but as you complete other parts of the house (I am not able to document which are these parts and using Google will unfortunately return little information), some of the map parts will unlock. You will also be able to get these map parts once you get the Mui Mui Friends from the Mui Mui Crane.

Listed below are the new stages that will be unlocked once the map parts are completed. To unlock the new stage, press the button X when an exclamation point appears while placing the pointer on top of the completed map parts list.

Bumpy Map -> Perculoka 2
Coarse Map -> Jaojab 3
Soggy Map -> Kelapton 2
Smudged Map -> Buibui Fort 3

These 4 stages are the most difficult stages that I encountered. In the original stages, not even once did my Loco Roco died. In two of the stages, dying is the norm not the exception. The other 2 stages require logic, eye-hand coordination and abstract thinking. I have described below what you can expect from these stages.

Perculoka 2
This is the easiest among the four. You just need to bounce your Loco Roco properly and avoid jumping in the water. Once you are in the water, you will be directed to the end of the stage.

Jaojab 3
You need to think ahead in order to assess where you need to go in this "rotating" stage. If you think you are stuck, you definitely are.

Kelapton 2
A steady eye-hand coordination is required in this stage. I am almost at the last part. Almost!

Buibui Fort 3
If you are a masochist, this is the stage for you. I'm always dead in the first 10 seconds that's why I stopped playing this stage. There must be something wrong with my eye-hand coordination or the stage is just so frustratingly difficult!

Loco Roco 2: Mui Mui Crane

This is the location in the Mui Mui House where you will unlock the Mui Mui Crane. It is located in the upper right side of the house. In order to build it, you need the following parts:

2 Curly Tree Branch
3 Superhard Panel
2 Meteorite Fragment
500 Pickories

You can get the Curly Tree Branch from the Bui Bui Forts (1 and 2), the Superhard Panel if ever you encounter and destroy a Bui Bui plane, and the Meteorite Fragment is a common item that you can easily find in the various stages.

Once you built the Crane, it will move out of the Mui Mui House. When you exit the house back to the World Map, you will find the Crane near the Tropuca stages. It has become a mini-game where, for 100 pickories, you can grab unique items. Randomly while playing the mini-game, the Mui Mui Crane will be replaced by the bigger Bui Bui Crane.

One of the most important use of the Crane is you can get here the Mui Mui Friends which you need to get the maps for the Lab Counter. This will be the topic for my next post.

Loco Roco 2: Mui Mui House

My Mui Mui House. Click image to enlarge.

I have been playing the PSP game Loco Roco 2, everyday, for almost 6 months now and I have not finished unlocking all of the secret stuffs. That's how deep the game is compared to its first incarnation.

My favorite and most played feature of the game is the Mui Mui House. You will need to gather specific materials to unlock specific areas, parts and furnitures of the house. These areas will eventually unlock additional stages or mini-games in the game.

The only thing left right now in my Mui Mui House is the Juice Server. Well that is unless something is unlocked again after I completed all the parts. Unfortunately I do not have the patience yet to get the honey material from the darn bees because they are just so hard to get.

I'll provide detailed information in later posts on how to unlock the critical parts of the house to get access to the mini-games and additional game stages.
