I've all the hearts for 'Timberdale' and can lend advice; several others have completed this as well and can help too.

[For organization's sake, let's start a thread that contains all answers to questions regarding each world (there's several threads below that have duplicate content). I'll start one for each world I've completed and can offer advice on.]

Here's the style of help I prefer giving; hints without perfect directions, so there's still the fun of figuring out the rest for yourself:

"Rock Suit" (the 'molten lava' clue)
There's a red circle printed on the ground near the entrance from the hub. To activate it, you need a red disk. The place where you 'lay in state' refers to the room where you started the game, at the far side of the level.

"Six Potions"
One of these is very difficult to find. But if you stand on the bridge midway through the level and look up towards the top of the 'tree', you'll see a series of three yellow poles.

having trouble reaching that little 'secret' window to reach the castle made of sand. know what i mean?? need more precise instruction to jump accross 2 it. what a strange tedious frustrating mission lol

We're talking looooong time since I've played this, but ... let's see. Maybe practice this somewhere safe first, but I think you've got to do some kind of extra kick or something to get the distance to the window. Wow, wish I could help you more than that. No idea if my Xbox even works anymore, lol. Great game though, I never traded this one in. Maybe I should blow the dust off it.
