I Like to Move It, Move It! - Introduction:
Madagascar Kartz is the second PS3 kart racing game to support trophies. Play with your favorite Madagascar characters: Alex, Marty, Gloria, Melman, the wacky King Julien and the crafty penguins, plus unlock bonus DreamWorks characters Shrek and B.O.B. from Monsters vs. Aliens.

Like Cars, this is an easy platinum. But this platinum is slightly harder than Cars, due to a number of trophies that can take a long while to get. Also when it gets to 150CC/200CC the computer-controlled racers can be so annoying and they can zoom past you if you just make a mistake.

Please note, to GET this platinum you must have a second controller and a second player.

1 - Play through all championship races
On the menu, select "Single Player" -> "Championship" to begin.

You start off with only 3 50CC championships. To unlock all 100CC, you need to complete all championships in the 50CC. Make sure in the end of the championship YOU COME FIRST PLACE IN THE TABLE. You don't have to win every race, but make sure you end up first in the table when all 3 races are completed.

Same technique for unlocking 150CC and 200CC.

Basically as you play, you unlock in this following order:
50CC -> 100CC -> 150CC -> 200CC (Mirrored)

150CC and 200CC championships CAN BE seriously annoying as it looks like the computer-controlled karts cheat. They somehow zoom past you, even if you are using turbo. They know every shortcut in the game, so it's gonna be hard. But here's a trick come FIRST in one of the first two races, then you should be fine when finishing 2nd or 3rd in the rest of the races. If you don't come 1st in the first two races of the championship, you better might as well restart the whole championship.

2 - Play through all Time Trials
On the menu, select "Single Player" -> "Time Trials".

Now look at the trophy list. There isn't a trophy for beating every single gold time trial, so that's good. All you have to do is look at your trophy list on your PS3 and read the description for each time trial trophy and do it. Like for example for the "Volcano Gold Medalist", you must BEAT the Gold medal time set in 200CC. Not 50CC, not 100CC, not 150CC. It won't unlock if you don't do it in 200CC.

Another example for "Mothership Gold Medalist", you must beat the Gold medal time set ONLY in 150CC. Again, doing it in 50CC won't unlock it. Finish the selected trials and you should have all the trial trophies!

3 - Move It! Move It! Trophies
On the menu, select "Single Player" -> "Move It! Move It!". Note that it has to be single player only.

On this mode, is basically 4 players (including yourself) and you must take the disco ball off a computer-controlled player, have the disco ball to yourself and earn points. Be the first to get 50 points.
There are 4 easy trophies here. Do one Move It! Move It! race for each kart class and win them.

4 - Checkpoint Trophies
On the menu, select "Single Player" -> "Checkpoint Race".

All you have to do is collect 40 hourglasses in one checkpoint race. It can be any stage. But the NYC Zoo track was the easiest for me. If you collect all 40 hourglasses without fail, then 3 trophies are yours just like that. If you failed, don't worry. Try again until you get 40 hourglasses.

Now after that go back to the menu, select "Multiplayer" -> "Checkpoint Race".

YOU NEED ANOTHER PLAYER TO DO THIS MODE. It is impossible to have two controllers and play the level by yourself to get 40 hourglasses for each player.

Basically you and your friend, just hit their colored hourglasses. Player 1 is blue and Player 2 is red. YOU AND YOUR FRIEND MUST GET 40 HOURGLASSES EACH in order to net all 3 trophies.

5 - Stunt Trophies
Now this is easy, but time consuming and it can really knock you off as you keep trying and trying again to get it right.

There are 5 stunt trophies. Foosa Flipout, Danger Freighter and Triple Stunt are very easy stunt trophies. Then there is the "Just Plane Stunts" trophy - where you have to perform 3 stunts in Plane Wreck track. This is not that hard, but it's annoying that if you don't perform your stunts in time, you'll crash and you have to go through the whole lap again as you can only do stunts at the end of the track. MAKE SURE YOU MIX UP YOUR STUNTS.

Then there's the 5 Stunt Trophy and it's probably the hardest trophy in the game. While your kart is in the air, you have to perform 5 stunts before landing and not crash. There are two tracks you can get this trophy in.

Freighter - When you go up that huge pipe. Also the pipe is also the only way to get the "Danger Freighter" trophy.

Monsters vs. Aliens Mothership - When you get sucked up in some blue vertex.

You have to be very quick with your stunts otherwise you won't make it. And I'll say this again. Be sure to MIX up your stunts. If you do the same stunt again, it takes more time for that character to perform that same stunt and you would fail.

6 - Clean up
All the rest of the trophies are pain easy shouldn't take long to get, including the license trophies. Platinum is all yours after this.



Madagascar Kartz Champ
Collect all other Madagascar Kartz Trophies (2) 

May I present you, this platinum trophy! Collect all 50 trophies, and this trophy is yours!

Finish Line Frenzy
Finish any race in 1st, 2nd, or 3rd Place. 

Just finish any race in 1st, 2nd or 3rd. If you can't get this trophy after 4 races, then you will have a hard time getting this platinum.

Zany Zoo Champ
Finish Zany Zoo Cup in 1st, 2nd, or 3rd Place. 

Finish that particular championship cup in 1st, 2nd or 3rd. But if you are after platinum, you MUST come 1st.

Wild and Wacky Champ
Finish Wild and Wacky Cup in 1st, 2nd, or 3rd Place. 

See "Zany Zoo Champ".

Fabulous Freak Champ
Finish Fabulous Freak Cup in 1st, 2nd, or 3rd Place. 

See "Zany Zoo Champ".

Bump Free
Complete a lap without bumping into a wall. 

Got this when I did my first ever race in this game. Just don't bump into anything (bumping into other karts is okay) and the trophy should pop up immediately after completing the lap.

Triple Stunt
Do a 3 stunt combo in any race. 

The easiest stunt trophy. You can get this in your sleep on Mothership and Freighter. You can get it easily on other tracks to including NYC Zoo. Just go on a decent ramp, while you're on the air perform a 3 stunt combo. Trophy should pop up once done. Make sure you don't crash though on your landing.

5 Stunt Flyer
Do a 5 stunt combo in any race. (1) 

When they mean any race, they mean Mothership or Freighter as those two tracks are the only tracks you can gain this trophy. This is the hardest trophy in the game as you'll be trying over and over and over again until you get it right. While your kart is in the air, you have to perform 5 stunts before landing and not crash. There are two tracks you can get this trophy in.

Freighter - When you go up that huge pipe. Also, the pipe is also the only way to get the "Danger Freighter" trophy.

Monsters vs. Aliens Mothership - When you get sucked up in some blue vertex.

You have to be very quick with your stunts otherwise you won't make it. And I'll say this again. Be sure to MIX up your stunts. If you do the same stunt again, it takes more time for that character to perform that same stunt and you would fail.

Tip made by Roughdawg4 - Use Marty and do 100CC. (Do the freighter level for the 5 stunt combo).
What you need to do is hit square at the end of the ramp to jump to get additional air. After you do this you must alternate between up and down backflips until you get it. After a little trial I noticed up and down is slightly faster than left and right.
Make sure you boost to get some additional speed. I did not use any items to get this so you don't need any.

Alex License
Win a Quick race or a Championship race with Alex. 

Win any race at least once with each of these characters and you should have all the license trophies in no time. Do a 50CC race and you're all good.

  • Fabulous Freak Cup (50CC, 100CC, 150CC, 200CC)
A quick reminder that you don't have to come 1st place in EVERY race you do. But I repeat, you have to come 1st (have the most number of points) at the end of each championship you do.
Just Plane Stunts
Perform a 3 stunt combo on Plane Wreck. (1) 

One of the hardest trophies in the game. You have to perform 3 stunts in Plane Wreck track. This is not that hard but it's annoying that if you don't perform your stunts in time, you'll crash and you have to go through the whole lap again. You can only do stunts at the end of the track. MAKE SURE YOU MIX UP YOUR STUNTS.

Forgot My Trunks
Complete a race in Shark Beach without falling in the water. 

Just don't fall in to the water during the "Shark Beach" race and the trophy is yours.

Foosa Flipout
Perform a 2 back flip combo on Foosa Rocks. 

Be careful when aiming for this trophy because you may forget the trophy description during the race. You must perform a TWO backflip combo in Foosa Rocks to earn this trophy. You'll encounter a whole bunch on ramps during the race. Go on a ramp and perform a two backflip combo.

NYC Air Freight
Grab an Item Crate from above the water in NYC Zoo. 

I got this with my eyes closed. Didn't even know there was a trophy for this. At one point, you drive in to the air above the river to perform your stunt and there are item crates on the air. Grab one and the trophy is yours.

Danger Freighter
Perform a 4 stunt combo on Freighter. 

From the start of the race, make sure you take the first right and you'll be driving up the long crate. As you come down, perform an easy 4 stunt combo.

Fire Proof
Complete a race on Volcano without falling in the lava.  

I got this when I was doing a time trial. Obviously for me, it was very hard to do during the championships because another opponent can knock you in to the lava or someone uses an item and you can't control yourself and fall in to the lava. But yes, do the best you can and don't fall in to the lava.

Log Dodge
Complete Shrek Swamp without getting hit by swinging logs. 

This is pretty easy but annoying. When driving through, you never know when the log is going to hit you. So stay in the middle and look out.

Ziggidy Zap
Complete a race in Monsters vs. Aliens™ Mothership without getting zapped by the clones.  

Just don't get hit by the lasers that zaps across some areas in the track and this trophy is yours.

Going on Safari
Complete a race in Watering Hole crossing the Hippo pond and avoiding the Giraffes. 

I was wondering why it didn't unlock for me after playing the track 3 times. It's because I didn't cross the Hippo pond. It's very easy to miss the Hippo pond. If you can, follow a computer controlled kart and it will show you a shortcut which is crossing the pond. Oh and don't hit a giraffe near the end of the lap.

Plane Wreck Gold Medalist
Beat the 50CC Time Trial Gold Medal time in Plane Wreck. 

All you have to do, is use the kart you are most comfortable with, and take all the shortcuts in every race. Make sure you drift to get Turbo so you are zoom through the race. If you make one mistake like falling off the road, restart the trial again.

Foosa Rocks Gold Medalist
Beat the 50CC Time Trial Gold Medal time in Foosa Rocks. 

See "Plane Wreck Gold Medalist".

Checkpoint Master
Collect 40 Hourglasses in one Single Player Checkpoint Race. 

All you have to do is collect 40 hourglasses in one checkpoint race. It can be any stage and these trophies stack. The NYC Zoo track seems to be the easiest track. If you collect all 40 hourglasses without fail, then 3 trophies are yours just like that. If you failed, don't worry. Try again until you get 40 hourglasses.

Multiplayer Checkpoint Master
Collect 40 Hourglasses each in one Multiplayer Checkpoint Race. 

Basically the same requirements for the "Checkpoint Master" trophy, but now it is multiplayer. You must have a decent second player to play with you. You need to collect 40 hourglasses EACH for the master trophy.

Mango Collector
Collect 5,000 Mangos. 

You should get this trophy before completing all championships from 50CC to 200CC. At the end of the race, you'll earn mangos. The higher the rank in the race, the more mangos you earn.

More Fruit!
Collect 10,000 Mangos. 

I didn't get this trophy after completing the championships but that's okay. If you haven't too, you DON'T have to play a quick race to get more. If you are following my roadmap, you will get this trophy in no time as you can collect mangos in Time Trial modes, Move It! Move It! modes and Checkpoint races.
