Tchia is a game about family, exploration, and the ties of friendship. While most of the game is rather peaceful, there are enemies in the game that wish to capture 
Tchia. These are known as 
Maano and are servants of 
Meavora. These are beings created by the ruler out of nothing more than fabric and totems, meaning that they can’t be destroyed by your slingshot or a crab pinch. The guide below goes over how to defeat Maano in Tchia.

What are Maano Weak to in Tchia¶
The only thing that can get rid of the Maano is fire. Tchia herself can’t naturally produce fire, but she can possess objects using soul jump that can produce fire. Luckily, these enemies aren’t wandering out in the wilderness. They are stationed in camps scattered around the map. They are usually in groups of three to ten and will even have surveillance units that can locate you from farther away.

Unfortunately for the Maano, though, their camps are also packed with everything you need to defeat them. There are four primary ways you are going to defeat the Maano.
- Using a lantern to ignite them.
- Using a gasoline can to ignite them.
- Using coal to ignite them.
- Using a fire to spawn a flaming log, which can be used to chase them down or be thrown at them from afar.

Most Maano camps can be wiped out within a couple of minutes. We do recommend that you go for the surveillance units first, as these can capture you from a decent distance.
How to Escape Maano in Tchia¶
If you are spotted by a Maano unit, then they will start throwing fabric at you. Generally, you see this attack coming, and you can dodge it. This is harder if you’re in a bad spot or if you have several Maano after you at once. When captured, you are able to tap a button to try and escape. This happens every time you are captured, even if it’s back to back. If you can’t escape, you will be placed inside a cage.

Once you are able to move, use soul jump and search around your surroundings to find an item to transfer into. This will likely be some coal that can be used to set fire to any nearby Maano. Being captured does not revive any Maano or restart your progress in the camp.
