LICENSED BY

Imagine the island of Voya Nui. You are on a beach at the foot of a monstrous cliff. A line of meandering footprints leads you to a figure collapsed on the sand. As you approach, a deep rumble of thunder echoes in the distance. Exhausted, a Matoran looks up — at first fearful — but then understanding,

“I know who you are. You are the Hero,” he says. You smile. With this encouragement the Matoran tells you the story.

“This land has been invaded by the despicable Piraka. They have stolen the Mask of Life! The Piraka do not know the Mask’s real power, but in spite of that they have used it to take control of all the creatures on the island.

“You are the Hero. You must track down and defeat the Piraka, restore the Mask and bring peace back to Voya Nui. Here….”

The Matoran reaches into a large bag lying next to him and pulls out an ornate TOA Inika Mask.

“Collect and use the powers that the TOA Inika Masks will grant you to save Voya Nui. Hero, this is your quest!”

What YOU Have To Do

BIONICLE Heroes™lets you take on the guise of the heroic TOA

Inika and control their unique powers to overcome a host of different enemies. Many dangerous, aggressive BIONICLE creatures, created by the evil power of the Piraka, exist on the island. You must defeat hordes of enemies in each of the six elemental Zones of the island and then defeat the Piraka to win back the Mask of Life and return the island to peace.

Your power (as the Hero) comes from the six different TOA Inika Masks that you can find scattered throughout each level. Once you put on a TOA Mask, you assume the powers and ability of that TOA.

Don’t worry — even if the task seems too difficult, you will not be left without help. BIONICLE Heroes

™

will always prompt you on the best course of action to take: either indicating which TOA to use to make the most of a special ability, or pointing you in the correct direction to get through a level.

Main Menu

You begin your adventure at the Matoran Enclave, a large ceremonial clearing full of ancient structures, chambers, display areas, a useful shop and a nearby beach.

You’ll also return here regularly to check on your achievements, upgrade your TOA and review what you’ve collected and unlocked in these adventures.

Select New Game from the Main Menu to enter the Matoran Enclave.

Matoran Enclave

Zone/Level Select Chamber

Directly ahead of you and down a long staircase is the Zone/Level Select Chamber. This has six doorways that conceal passages to the portals that will take you to each part of the six elemental Zones on Voya Nui.

To return to the Matoran Enclave from the Zone/Level Select Chamber, face the stairway and move up the stairs.

The island of Voya Nui is divided into six distinct Zones:

Hakann’s Volcano — Based in and around the island’s volcanic zone, where you can explore caves, caverns and volcanic plains.

Reidak’s Desert — Set in Voya Nui’s desert region, with the action also based in and around the Island citadel.

Thok’s Mountain — Features a landscape of rocky outcrops, cliffs, and icy mountain passes.

Vezok’s Coastline — Set in and around the shoreline of Voya Nui.

Zaktan’s Jungle — A tropical jungle bristling with dense jungle, hidden temples, waterfalls and tree top villages.

Avak’s Stronghold — Set in and around the ominous Piraka Stronghold.

TO BEGIN A NEW GAME:

1. Enter the Zone/Level Select Chamber. The entrance to Vezok’s Coastline will open.

2. Enter this area, where you will find the four portals to the levels of Vezok’s Coastline. Only Piraka Bluff is initially selectable.

3. Press the A Button to start this level.

Levels

A short introduction leads you into each level and gives you an idea of whom (or what) you might encounter. Complete the three levels within a Zone to enter the Boss level, where you battle the Piraka who controls that Zone.

Initially, only one Zone is available, but as you progress, other Zones open up. Levels must be completed in sequence within a Zone, but you can play any completed level in Free Play mode

(see page 15).
