Beyond Good & Evil Hints

Which pearls can I get in the Akuda bar?

  • 1 of 9: The first one is obvious. Look around.
  • 2 of 9: Francis, one of the sharks, wears it on his head.
  • 3 of 9: Talk to him and he will tell you how to get the pearl.
  • 4 of 9: You have to win a game of that air hockey against him, but each try costs 1000 credits.
  • 5 of 9: The second one belongs to Rufus, the other shark.
  • 6 of 9: He acts strangely, don't you think?
  • 7 of 9: Whenever you come near him, he hides a code under is fin.
  • 8 of 9: He doesn't know, you have a zoom, so use it to read the code. (I can't give you the code as it is randomly generated when you start a game.)
  • 9 of 9: Follow the lead and you find the pearl in a locker.
