Watch out for your health in combat

Dying in combat is rather unusual in Kao the Kangaroo.

The opponents aren’t strong, you’re free to defeat them with a few punches.

Such an enemy can take your life when you’re simply exploring the map.

PC

Watch out for their movements, as they are not signaled in any way, e.g.

by a shadow of a falling object.

Gather collectibles

Many of the collectibles on the map have a direct impact on the hero.

PC

The heart fragments are the most important.

Use the shops

You will find a shop on every island.

Here you’ve got the option to buy clothes for Kao, lives and heart fragments.

PC

The latter are the most important, and you should invest in the hearts at the beginning.

you might buy only 2 heart quarters in each shop.

Focus on it in advance and don’t panic, because they regenerate quickly.
