Clean Cut is a Mini-Game in Skyward Sword.[1]

Rules[]

Clean Cut can be played on Bamboo Island. The Mini-Game is run by Peater, who tolls Link 10 Rupees to play. When the game begins, Link will be faced with a giant bamboo plant. He must cut the plant as many times as possible before the top of the bamboo touches the ground.

Prizes[]

Link can randomly receive one of the following prizes if he has cut the bamboo enough times:

Cuts Prize
0 to 14 No Prize
15 to 19 SS Green Rupee Icon 30 Rupees
20 to 27 SS Evil Crystal Icon Evil Crystal
or
SS Monster Horn Icon Monster Horn
28+ SS Blue Bird Feather Icon Blue Bird Feather
or
SS Golden Skull Icon Golden Skull
or
SS Goddess Plume Icon Goddess Plume

Strategy[]

  • Performing a Spin Attack counts as hitting the bamboo twice.
  • Cutting two pieces of bamboo at the same time as they fall counts as two cuts.
  • Stabbing the bamboo causes it to drop vertically, allowing for a reliable high number of cuts.

Trivia[]

  • According to a Gossip Stone, Peater claims he holds a record of 43 slices.[2]
  • The counter resets after exceeding 64 cuts. This means that 65 cuts is counted as 1 cut, 66 cuts count as 2 cuts and so on.[3]
