(1 of 2) Make use of the Iron Blade’s Triple Slash

Make use of the Iron Blade’s Triple Slash (left), focus on hitting all of the Time Boxes first. (right)

The game is simple in practice, you’ll be in an area littered with boxes of different shapes and numbers. Destroying a particular box will award you the points with that number however you’ll have a time limit to contend with. For the most part, Whack-a-Box is all about practice makes perfect, you need to get a feel for each of the different boxes but here’s some simple tips to get you started:

  • Equip and use the Iron Blade, this allows you to use Triple Slash in the mini-game, the most useful ability for taking down boxes.

  • Ignore the large boxes to begin with, they take longer to break and as such, not worth their initial point value.

  • Seek out every Time Box first, these small red colored boxes will give you the maximum amount of time allowed and you can then go back and wrap up any boxes you may have missed.

As mentioned above, you’ll need to get a feel for how much damage your attacks do to each of the boxes, specifically the 1500 boxes but the above tips should make this a breeze. Once you have all of the available time boxes, you should find yourself with more than enough time to beat the High Score.
