Zack & Wiki - Mirror, Mirror (1 of 3)

The next leg of Zack's journey is...Barbaros's bedroom. Apparently, even this has security against the treasure chests, since there's a prankster in this place. You'll know who it is soon enough. Notice how the treasure chest is only in the reflection and not in the room Zack's in. But notice something (or really, someone) else missing as Zack runs around...

That's weird. Music notation pops out of the various props in this room. The skull on the dinner plate makes rattling noises and emits a bass clef. The meat makes a sizzling noise and a dinner bell, then emits a quarter note. The candelabra makes a funky "shove" sound effect and produces a treble clef. The window causes the sounds of shattered glass while making an eighth note. The chandelier creaks with a pair of conjoined eighth notes. The deer plaque (which you won't see until later) screams like Johnny Style, and a pair of conjoined sixteenth notes comes out of it.

There's also a telephone, a wardrobe with Zack's reflection, and a bed with Johnny Style hanging out in this room. What a lot of strange props.

So, after a bit of wandering around, the telephone rings. Pretty creepy. Maybe it's just a telemarketer..but it turns out to be a delivery of a clue: You see the notation rise out of the speaker, but on the Wii Remote are the sound effects heard in the room. (You can't hear them, obviously, because the recording can't pick up the Wii Remote noises.) Zack must trigger them to get to the basement.

How eerie...there's another room just like the first room Zack was in, only a mirror image. Well, there are a few changes. Again, the treasure chest is only in the reflection, and there's a key on the bed that appears only in silhouette. Something isn't right about this place...

By the way, when you were passing through the hall at about 6:08, there was a sparkle that gives up another Mysterious Treasures.

Figure I'd mention it since it's fairly easy to miss & the Mysterious Treasures get no hints on to how to find them

[Overhazard]

I didn't even notice that there until you pointed it out...I tend to get coins rather than the Mysterious Treasures, so it'll be a rough ride.

Don't give the locations of the other ones to me though. I want to find them myself.

[snowyarticuno]

Right but here are some hints:

-There is one in every level. Every. Level.

-They can be found in pots(etc) or sparkly places (maybe out of the way things)

-I'm not sure about ones from sparkles, but ones in pots seem to be random (like with the Bionic Commando in the Clocktower that you only found in one playthrough)

Good luck! *yells & runs away*

[Overhazard]

Sparkles are randomly assigned too. I found PIRATE in "Keeper of the Ice," but Jeeves got me, and I couldn't find it in any of my subsequent tries.

I prefer to save these for after I finish the game. I'll make a montage of my remaining ones.

I noticed that Wiki is Missing and (not sure about this one) but the Zack in the mirror has a different hair color.. Fishy indeed.

[Overhazard]

I don't really see a different hair color, but I could be wrong. They look equally orange to me.

[snowyarticuno]

Now that's just mean

[randomyoshi]

That phone is supposed to give out the note combinations to trigger a specific event, eh? That's quite clever.

[TamrielTerror2]

the atmosphere of the whole level is well made.

[tyronetee7]

that mirror should have zack and wiki's reflection theres something fishy about that mirror but I wonder what it is
