Totem Tribe Hints, Tips, Walkthrough and Discussion
filed in PC Games on Jan.18, 2009

This game is a combination of garden defense, virtual villagers, mistery case file and war strategy game.
I’m going to write level by level game tips hints and game walkthrough…
Fell free to ask me anything ..
In this game, you have to protect your main character Aruku and Guro. If your main characters die you have to start over from the last time you save the game. So save the game frequently, you can save the game by clicking the quit button.
In each level (refer to islands) there are objectives you need to accomplished. Once and objective is done, there might be another objective. The level is complete when you finish all your objectvies.
In each island, there are main objectives and other tasks. After finishing the main objective, you can still play the island, to finish the other tasks.
There are many type of building, some will train people with specific skills.
Type of building that train people:

General Tips and Information:
- Start with building 3-4 hunts to build the building faster
- You can only give your workers 3 tasks at most, no matter how many hunts you have
- Try to place the tower at the edges (of an island, of an area, or anything) to see beyong your reach.
- Use the attack flag to direct your forces
- Use the exploration flag to direct your scouts
- Before constructing a building, make sure the area is clean from any valuable items, otherwise, you might miss the items needed to fullfill the objectives.
- Read all the obelisk (a stone with some writing on it), unread obelisk will glow some yellow light
- Whenever you’re building your defense, put the sword and eye flag at the center of your village, this will prevent your people going somewhere and invite enemies to attack you
- Tower can be placed far from the other buildins / your village
- Once you have them, build wiseman’s hous and marketplace as soon as possible, so you have more people and they are faster.

Hi! I can’t seem to find the last ice shard to bust the large ice shards. Do you know where they are? I need to still find quicksilver and salamender dust so I can mix for phoenix oil and amalgam and I guess they are behind that ice!
This may seem like a stupid question, but how do I “unpause” the game???
Space bar pauses and unpauses the game.
hi i am stuck on mist island i have lit 2 lights and have found the third but cant find the bulb for it anywhere can u help plz
hi, i stuck on shark island. really have no clue what to do i can’t find anything at all
can u help me plz??
you have to find blue and green turtle shells 2 gears and fuzzy lights for the lighthouses and the 4 colourwed crystals that activates the time warp but read your stones they will tell you the answers to the clues
Hi , i’m at level 9 and I’ve finished building my fire towers already. but how do I melt the ice blocks? it will be great if you could help me =D
is there a way to clear out all black in mist island and lonley iceberg
no
Jessica, Marie, Nidnoi, please be patient, i’m replaying the game to make the walkthrough, check back later..
Nicole, complete level 9 walkthrough here
http://en.dinishanti.com/games/pc-games/totem-tribe-frozen-vale-island/
You need to build the fire tower near the ice blocks, the tower will then throw fires on the ice.
i’m stuck on the mist level, got 3 lights but can’t see any more, but i have a Rune of lighting items, but dont know where to use it.
All you need is a walkthrough off youtube
i can help you if you see sumthing with a sine of linig poot a ruwn of liteingon it
were did you find that rune i fownd were it goes but not it
You do not have Yeti Island will you be doing that one too?
Marie, pay very close attention to the map on Mist island. You’ll find items in the mist in areas where the map shows a passage.
Nidnoi, I can’t help too much off the cuff, but on the first island, you need to find a transportation crystal by playing a minigame with the bronze arrows set into a large diamond shape (I think they all have to point inwards). On the second island, the lit color determines where you teleport when you use the white teleporter stone. Hopefully that will get you started
I can’t seem to get the little woman to walk out of the “clear spot” in mist island.
what am I doing wrong?
You need to find the lights.Just look at the stones
Go to the
Totem Tribe\data\texture\game\item\ folder
and open the pictures with paint. Round the objects its white now, make that red or another color and save this.
Now you can find some objects better. Like the roots.
easier said then done. Can find the pic in the program file, can circle it red, can not save it to folder why?
Hi,
Thanks a lot for this walkthrough.
I’m currently stuck on the “mirror” island level.
=> I can’t found the 12th pineapple :/
Could you realise a full map with all the locations ?
Thank ya
Ange
Hey, i want to find the roots but i don’t understand you so could you please explain how to make the roots easy to find with the details?
I’m on misty island and i can’t find the ‘gift’ for the tower keeper. Please Help.
Thankyou
The gift is a black pearl. In my game it was hidden in the top portion of the big lake on the right. It can’t be seen. Click all over the water to find it. The marker there says something like “some items can’t be seen” or something to that effect.
hi there….need to know how to move the black orbs to the right.i’m really stuck.thanks.
Try this, let’s give the orbs number 1 – 7 from left to right..
Click the orbs in the following order: 5,3,2,4,6,7,5,3,1,2,4,6,5,3,4
The idea is to move the white orbs to the left and black orbs to the right..
Mary.. read my mist island walkthrough http://en.dinishanti.com/games/pc-games/totem-tribe-level-12-mist-island/
Ezoo: you will find the maps to all roots in this game at
http://en.dinishanti.com/games/pc-games/totem-tribe-level-7-witch-island/
How do you swim?
I found the shells. Now Im on level 17.cant find one pineapple.
To be able to swim you need Aqualung found at Shark Island

Open it with paint, and paint white/black areas with red(its your choice). save it, and enter game. it become more visible.
can someone tell me where to go to to find this >>>>
\Totem Tribe\data\texture\game\item\ folder
so I can paint the gems black
Thanks
program files
It would be nice if someone would put this on youtube for us less computer literate. I have tried to find this but I can’t not sure what I’m doing wrong.
I tried to do this as well to find my last blue shell, but my painted image won’t be saved. An error message keeps occuring… What can I do? I started the shark islands 3 or 4 times, I’m fed up with it! Could you please help?
just wondering if anyone knows if in comet crash site there is a way to blow up all the stones with crystals sticking out of them
even though in my 1st post it shows how to find object u are looking for im yet to find the last 9% of the rainbow road. can anyone help. i would love to be able to get to the Guardian Moon level which can only be entered if the rainbow road is complete
on red scull island use the fire from the idol on the upper right corner (where the snow is) and you ‘ll have another white jewel. lucky found!
i’ m stuck at 98% of rainbow road arrgh
this may help: destroy every building. you may have missed some jewels by building on them
it’ s on red rock sorry
sorry i just realized i wrote that i was 9% through the rainbow road. im actually 91% through
is there any way to reveal all the map of lonely iceberg?
I couldn’t resist cheating.I painted all gems black… but I’m still missing one.I just can’t see it, it’s unbelievable!

Just so you all know there was a bug in the game when it was originally released. You have to download the newest version (1.02) in order to have the rainbow road complete. if you are 99% done, when you d/l the newest version you should automatically got o 100%. Save your game profiles and then copy them into the new folder once you reinstall (with the new reinstall the folder you need to past them into is now located in all users/documents and settings/application data/enkord

Kelly,
To destrory buildings you will find a red X in the bottem of where you go to build buildings. You will find aqualung in shark archipelago, this will make it so your explores swim.
Evelyn,
You will find the the sky hall in Mist island. After you find that you can build thunder towers. Look in the Mish island walk through on how to find it.
I am missing 2 things in my treasury.. is there anyway you can list on what level you get what. I am missing the item in the far right corner and the one item that i would say is at 10 oclock.. Or between the rings. I dont want to go to level 20 till I have those things. Thanx
After so many struggles I’m at the guardian moon -I owe you lots of thanks for that- but I can’t light all spheres! all of them is on except the one on the top!! now Any clue for that?
Thanks for everything
for people who are stuck under a 100% Go to Lost Temple Island and go to the brown stones near the lake, click this …
red, blue, yellow, pink, green
there are 3 additional chests
i did it and when from 94% to 99%
good luck!
Thank you so much! I went from 93% to 98%.
I am missing one amulet in my treasure chest, it is the one in the top right hand corner. Can anyone tell me what it is and where I can find it? Thanks
it’s at guardian moon..
Kam – Thank you so much for the trick about the Lost Temple treasure chest. It brought me from 84% to 89%. How did you find that out?? I think I am going to start the game over so I can get everything and go to the rainbow road. Might just finish this one without getting there. I have been over every island 3 times and I can’t find anything else. Getting bored.
frost tower how i get it?
You get frost tower and lonely iceberg
http://en.dinishanti.com/games/pc-games/totem-tribe-lonely-iceberg/
argh mist island is doing my head in i can’t get the woman to go any further i got her to go to some of the blck part but that’s it i’m ready to give up on the game
you have to find the lights she walks farther if you put the lights in the small structure read the guide stones by the way does anyone know how to get off the shark place im stuck on the second island of that place and the stupid scout wont go anywhere WHAT DO I DO.
pick him out of the water until the sharks swim away then let him swim a little then pick him up again when they come back you will eventually get to the other side took me a few go’s
Rose:
Don’t give up. Watch your small map. If you look closely you can see an outline where she an and can’t walk, and what are just clouds. Take small spaces at a time.

hi / I got the map to the lost temple ,,, but I cant still not get on the lost temple Island/ please help
Terri:
Thankyou for your help, it’s just my eye sight is not that good so trying to follow it is very hard and i’m feeling so frustrated with this part of the game right now I wish I could enlarge the map on the game to see it better :S but again Terri Thankyou very much for your help x
I loved this game – any suggestions for similar (as good) type games would be appreciated.
On which island and how do you get the upgrade to make the lightning tower? Not the thunder tower; I know that is the island of the Mists. I can’t get that upgrade until I find the lightning tower. I simply stay on Mist Island even though I solved the puzzles and got the thunder upgrade. Thanks!
Terri:
I just finished it
now I had better get to bed it’s 5-25am here
Thanks Terri XX

Hi Dinishanti
Inside the Comet – Can you tell me how to make Aruku & Guro go away and stay away from the battle site. I put the eye flag on the other side of the crystal mountain but they keep pacing about on the edge of the village right smack bang in the battle zone, indeed they seem to be heading for it. Frustrated as had to start this five times over.
hmm… I didn’t face this problem, What about building towers near them?
Hello – your help is amazing!! I am getting ready to start Scorched Island, and have six of the seven coins. I don’t have coin #2 and can’t figure out which island it comes from. Can you help?
Thanks!

Good luck Rose..
is the purpose of this island
Comet Crash Site to destroy the Big purple crystals ? can you tell me if there a way out for the woman and man or what else happens i’m a bit confused here, is there something else i’m supposed to do to finish on this island ??
Thanks
can someone tell me where to go to to find this >>>>
\Totem Tribe\data\texture\game\item\ folder
so I can paint the gems black Thanks
Rose: In your program files folder
Dini I love your walk through its the most comprehensive I have found. My problem is that Ive played this game thru twice now, Ive painted my jewels, got rid of the fog, even written down and counted how many gems I got on each island and I STILL can only get 99% of the jewels and I have the updated version. Do u have any ideas that can help me? Im tearing my hair out – I love this game and really want to finish it.
What version of the game do you have? the earlier version had 1 missing gem.. so please make sure you have the updated version..
could you please tell me what the lastest version of this game is? i’m playing 1.03, and i’m stuck at 99% of rainbow road. i’ve painted me gems, destroyed all my buildings, used fire on red rock island on the snowy mountains, and used the color code on lost temple island to get the three chests… now i’m wondering if i AM playing the old version…
good grief… m.c.
1.03 is the latest, i think, I got 100% with 1.03
thank you ever so much for your help. your site is amazing. i wouldn’t have gotten this far without you! however, i’m going to give me old eyes a rest, and be content at 99%… this is my second time through… the 1st time i was playing the, glitchy original version.
i’ll restart the game another time with fresh eyes, and see what happens.
fortunately, this game is so playable, i’m looking forward to try #3!
Where Do I get 1.03 I got my copy from real arcade any ideas??
I do have the updated version
Thanks Veev, I need Big Help could you or Dini help me with a walkthrough of how to open it with Paint and how to colour the gems
sorry I can play games and such but Not good at doing this sort of thing so need people with Brains for that Please Help Thankyou
Hi, Walk though is great but how can i get to all the outter islands in Lonely Iceberg map. i see jewels but cannot pick up because the screen does not go out far enough as i have no scouts to swin here i can not get others close enough to open screen. thanks for help
use the exploration flag, it will open more area than the attack flag..
hi Dini, on vulcano island how can i avoid fighters destroy shadespiramyds?
thnx
just don’t go near it when you’re not ready..
make sure you guide your troops to go to the right direction..
I was wondering, why the number of bricks in the building progress bar is different almost every time, even though it’s the same building type and I’ve got the same number of workers
just curious
I think it depends on the number of workers you have? and also when you upgrade so your workers work faster, maybe there is less bricks also..
just a thought..
oh, i’ve forgotten to say BIG thanks to Dini for this walkthrough
I was getting really frustrated with the game and then I found it
First of all – UBER kudos to this incredible site you’ve put together. I got this game because I was bored and now I can’t close my eyes without seeing it. lol. I couldn’t have gotten through it this far without you. I am currently stuck on Shark Archipelago. I managed to find all 24 green shells and 31 blue yesterday before accidentally starting it over. Now I have 23 green shells but I still CANNOT find that last blue one. I’ve been stuck on this board for two days and I’m starting to go a little nuts. I even Print Screened the islands and inverted the colors on Paint so I could see them better. Would you mind helping me with that last blue turtle shell? Thanks!
Hello!!
I have the same problem, I can’t find the last blue shell at Shark Archipelago.
I’ve looked everywhere and I can’t find anything on the internet.
Now I am hoping that you found that last blue shell and tell me where it is.. PLEASE.
I am sorry for my English, I am from the Netherlands.
Let me know!!

Now go back to Lost Temple to the lights around the lake…put the colors from Worship around the lake..3chests will appear above the lake. Hope this is what you are missing.The object on the top right you will get in Guardian Moon.

Susan
I read somewhere that there is a file where you can look at each island and see if there are any gems left there. I can’t seem to locate the file on my computer. Can anyone help?
The article says:
Open file
C:\Documents and Settings\Application Data\Enkord\Totem Tribe
There you should find files that look like this:
quest-xxxxx-nn-dat where “nn” represents the island number.
Please post here and email me a response to radiotech@cox.net
Thank you
Hi Terri
I thought i was going crazy i can’t find the file either :S i’ve through every place on my comp but Nothing ! Good Luck with finding it terri xx
try searching for it, by default the folder application data is hidden..
Hi Dini, Why is it hidden ?? I thought i was going nuts, and what do i have to do to get it by default
Thanks Dini
Dini can you tell me what i should be writing down when trying to find this file please thanks
no idea.. it’s something about windows… I found it after searching using windows search function.. or in your window explorer.. you can go to tools > folder options > view > hidden > show hidden files and folders
try search for enkord or totem tribe
Hmmm.. still can’t find the Ekord application data file. I really wanted to search for the gems honestly. Guess I will go and try blowing them up larger or color them different. Thanks anyway.
PS.. I notice at the end of your walkthrough pages it says if this walk through was helpful, you can buy me a cup of coffee by clinking on the links below. How does that work? I would gladly give donations to keep people like you making pages like this. They save me lots of frustration and make the games more enjoyable.
it’s called pay per lead program.. I got couple of dollars if someone fill out form in the participating program, but the offers may vary depending on your location.. mostly only accept US resident.. thank you!
I FINALLY DID IT !!!
I went to the Ekord web site and after you register, and then go to your email and confirm your reservation you can download a file that will show you exactly which island has which gems still on it. I had one on lonely iceberg and one on Monkey island. I also went into data and blew the gems up to 200 vs 16/32. So they were HUGE. I will go to Guardian moon this evening as soon as get those pesky life things, like picking up my kids from school and making dinner, done. Thanks for all your help. Still willing to send donations, let me know how.
happy for you.. good luck on Guardian Moon..
as for donations, I just put up a paypal donation button at the sidebar..
cheers..
omg…I am suppose to havve all the totems..but for some reason I don’t have totem of lizzard and I collected it already but it is not showing in my treasurey..any suggestions
Thanks for all your help on this forum – made it through twice with all gems & quests completed and the octopus killed. Would like to understand the scoring though. There was no black left on any of my islands yet my score said that I only explored 81% of the territory and that my rank was 87%. What was I missing?
BTW: Enkord posted a handy utility that will print by island and color what gem you are missing.
I love this game. I have played it 3 times trying to get all the jewels but I just can’t find them all. Does anyone know if there are any similar games like this one out there? Thanks
help i am level12 and i am having hard time defending my bases please advise.
How does one get to lost temple island?
It’s not clickable and i’ve been everywhere else except in the comet.
Thx….

Can you tell me How Can I Make FROST TOWER ?
Now I in Level 14,I nothing Can Finish The Puzzle Because I Don’t Have Technology to Build Frost Tower.
where do i fine the thunder tower? I missed it some where
Thunder Tower is on Mist Island. You need to get the lightning bolt thing and take it all the way around to the top right corner – there is a gate to put it on.
For those who are looking for the data files this is where I found them.
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users.WINDOWS\Application Data\Enkord\Totem Tribe
Dini, I heard you were able to get 100% of the world explored. How did you do that?
that’s not true, i got like 89%
how do you destroy a building after its been built, I can’t find the last 2 bones on skull island nor last
two shells on frozen vale, I have done your list 5 times
the only thing I can think of is I built a tower on them
any help I appreciate.
bummer! If I find out how to get 100% I will let you know!
I finished the game but only got 14/16 quests filled….I thought I got them all!!! I got 100% of the gems and went to all the “secret” locations. Any ideas???
I have found all but 1 gem, I kept track of them. It is still saying that I only have 98%. I did not by the game from enkord, so does that mean in order to get version 1.03 I have to rebuy the game from them?
i need help with getting all the gems the only ones left are on the edge of ponds i can see them but cannot get them. i have tried reloading totem tribe and deleting other first still i cannot get them i do not want to finish game without achieving it all, please help me!!
which island are you refering to?
Hi Dini Shanti,
You have been a really great help but I was wondering if you had a list of which islands had coins. I’m missing 2 and can’t work out which ones I need to return to. Any help for this poor old granny would be much appreciated.
Thanks
KIM
yes I have, it’s at http://en.dinishanti.com/games/pc-games/totem-tribe-all-the-ancient-coins/
I need 1 more gem from Volcano Island. It is the only 1 I am missing. PLease help!
Hi Dini
Thank you for offering so many hint on how to progress in this game.
I have got 2 questions to you:
1. Is it possible to get maps by you, where every gem is located for every island? If yes, where do I get it?
2. Im am now going to enter the final scene in the game – Inside the comet – for the 4th time. You have pointet out, that it is not nesseserry to fight the squid, but I can’t figure out how to do. Will you please help me out?
Best regards Edith
I have the maps, replaying the game to make sure all the location are correct but then got distracted with the new farm frenzy
I might post the maps next week or so..
for the final battle, when you feed the teeth with your troops, all the teeth, the squid will die..
Hi Edith Serritslev, u don’t need to feed the teeth , u break the cristal and keep fighting the squid when it is almost dead will show on the side the tears of heaven use it quickly to kill it,I did it like this, it is a better ending .
Hi Dini, I thought i had this amulet
can you tell me what island it’s on, it’s at the very top left of the treasury Thanks Dini
Rose
I am on the Isle of Worship and can only find 11 of each of the fruits, I have coloured the background of each red and still can only find 11 of each. I have re-downloaded the game and started it from the beginning again with the same result. Please Help.
Have you clicked on the main temple yet? After that a chest will appear and inside is one of each fruit.
so, i can’t find a seventh Ur crystal in the comet crash site, does anyone know of a sight with pictures
This site has pictures. If you go to Level 19 and then click on the link to find all Crystals it will show you the position of each.
Hi Dini
Really need your help, I’ve got all but one of the coins. when you look inn the treasury they are situated to the bottom left corner in a row, I’m missing the 6th one along, I’m guessing it has a hole in the middle! Any ideas to where I can find it?
Would appreciate your help.
Cheers
Gemma
Im missing the 6th old coin. can anyone tell me where to find it?
Look at the page where it shows you all the ancient coins. It shows you which level and where each ancient coin is. Go through each of them until you find it.
Hey, I still miss one amulet. It’s at the top left in the treasure list. where can i find that?? I’m stuck…
If it is not mistaken, it is the Crown of Defender. You can find it in Scorched Island.
How do u see what’s in ur treasury?? Aaahhhh I’m so addicted 2 this game!!!
Totem Tribe is such a awesome game I went ahead bought the full game. You have to help me, I went head and bought the fruit cheats for the Island of Wisdom but I can not find my last Papaya. Please help me!!!!
if you refering to my maps, I had all 12 of each in them. maybe it’s hiding behind buildings?
Someone said there was some info in this forum that shows how to get a 100% Explored rating on the final tally page. I’ve been looking and haven’t found it. Can someone provide a URL or hyperlink to it, please?
I love the game but very ungry on the gems , i look and look , i give up whant to the comet and finish .. why this one they make all most impossible to found , i like to play fair game not cheat . But ty Dini Shanti

When i went to paint my gems black and went to save the i was told that i was not allowed to do this by my computer what do i need to do to get around this?
Dear Dini, just want to share my experience.
I had 2 version of Totem Tribe, ver 1.00 and 1.03. I’ve finished playing on both version and strangely I could also go Guardian Moon on ver 1.00. But there is only light puzzle on that Island, all you have to do is to go to upper right hand corner of the map. And there I dip the crystal, thus effecting the ending to a better one. But you can still find the last amulet (Relic of Prosperity) by solving the light puzzle.
Above all that, I was wondering why at the very end of the game, the max exploration I got was only 80% and cannot do more than that. What is your final percentage? Just out of my curiosity. Thanks
The game has gone to game paused – don’t know how to get it going again.Anyone know?
help please! I have only 25 shells at frozen vale island. I looked everywhere and I feel like I’m going blind!I really want to get that last anicent coin. I also only have 79% complete for rainbow road. I presume that means I have to find more than just 21 jewels -.- but i’ve completed every island except frozen vale for the treasure chest. There’s only the last island – inside the comet left…. thank you! oh and I’m missing the uppermost right item which looks like a bear’s head. where do i get that?
Could you post a screenshot of the Treasury completely finished in Totem Tribes… and possibly a list of all of the islands they are located on? I’m missing one… the top right corner item. Have looked and looked all through the islands for it.
Thanks for the walkthrough… yours is bar far the best on the net! I’ll look into buying you a cup of coffee. Again, Thanks.

I found Application Data in All Owners, so the complete path would be:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Owners\Application Data\Enkord\Totem Tribe
That said, how the aich-ee-double-toothpicks do you read those goshdarn data files??????? I’ve tried em in WordPerfect, MS Word, Notepad, and Wordpad, and all I get each time is goobledeegook!

I’m trying to find the 3rd Shaman mask. Any ideas where I find it??
Also need to know how to get the Thunder tower. Did I miss something??
What island do I get the thunder tower and where is the middle shaman mask? I’ve tried everything and can’t find it.
i cant find the 10 roots please help
Could anybody tell me when I start or continue a game why it goes to pause and how I can stop it from doing that.
Susan did you place your Scout Flag on the Chest so they can walk to it? That should “Bring your Unit…” to the chest & cause it to open.
Dini this is a great Walkthru! I had to replay the entire game because it crashed & froze in the Comet… However, somewhere along the line I missed one of the items that go in the Treasure Chest, Can you tell me which Island I can find it on? it is the item in the Right upper corner, above the “Tribal Amulet” & to the right of the “Pendant of Nature Force”.
Also is there any way to check How many Gems are left to be found & on which which island? I’ve gone through all of the islands several times & haven’t gotten the Guardian Moon yet! (argh!)
thnxx so much, your walktrough really helped =). But it sucks I only need four precent, thats like ten gems right? Aw well then I have some thing to do tomorrow XD. Owh and my mom says thnxx to, she really loves this game.
I’m on witch island and i can’t melt the huge ice block, i can’t built a fire tower because all my worker are sick
what do i do?
In Your Treasures, Can anyone tell me what the item is between the Pendant of Power and the Diadem of Courage and also the item above the Heart of Bull and Tribal Amulet? Where do I find them? Also, what are the six circular items surrounding the Tear of Heaven? I’m going to the last level, and it says I can’t go back to uncover any items I didn’t find after visiting this level. Help please..
I have played this game on a different computer that had windows vista or xp, can’t remember, but now that i have upgraded to windows 7, i can’t do the paint thing to color the gems, or at least i can’t get to the place to do it. I can’t figure out how to do it like i did on the other windows program. Any ideas of how to paint the gems?
