Like Dororon! Youkai Daikessen! on the Nintendo DS, Taiko 3DS has a secret password menu in which you input a sequence to unlock hidden goodies that you cannot get by normal means. However, this time you're not using letters or numbers; instead, the password is made up of 10 small pictures. To enter the password, you have to tap the six faces on the bottom screen in order, and they can be repeated too so it's not easy to guess the sequence by luck.
The passwords unlock treasures in the Story Mode and new Taiko sounds to be used in the game.
In case it's difficult to see, the six faces you are able to tap in the password menu are arranged like so:
From the top-left: Don-chan, Wada Inu, Chick, Cat, Squid and Grandpa. The passwords will be presented in picture form below!
As of September 4, 2014, all passwords are now open to everyone through Taiko 3DS' official site.
