Hello, I will list all requirements below, round the minigame is in, advice as necessary, and will notate if later cards have stricter requirements.
NOTE: if you want to boost with someone or get matched against bots, then select Asia as your region and turn off crossplay.
1. Win 1 tournament - You need to win the round 4 minigame to win a tournament, you will also get the Wing and a Prayer achievement.
2. Unlock 6 full costumes - some will come as you level up your battle pass, and some can be purchased in the shop for crumbs.
3. Achieve the 1st place in a bonus round 1 time - pretty self explanatory, will come naturally. If you want to maximize your chances, I would try to qualify for a round 3 bonus instead of round 2, as the majority of players will enter the bonus after round 2.
4. Don't lose any hearts for 30 seconds in Yes Commander - this is a round 1 minigame and is very easy. The first ~45 seconds of the game are very time-lenient so once you memorize each move this becomes second nature.
5. Achieve a score of 350 in Super Striker - this is a round 2 minigame where you have to hit the foosball on the last note of the beat. This score is extremely easy to get, as your score is based off of your combo and perfect hits. Later cards require a perfect round and 650 score. A perfect round will net you well over 1000 points.
6. Get a total score of 100% on a 3-pigeon sequence in Stereo Ga Ga - this is a round 2 minigame where you hit A, X, or B the amount of times that respective pigeon makes a sound. This challenge can be VERY difficult as keeping up with all 3 presents quite the challenge. Best advice I have is try to focus on grabbing the items, as the bonus automatically gives you 100% on one of the pigeons. Just keep at this one and it will eventually come.
7. Don't lose any hearts for 30 seconds during Run Pigeon Run 2 - This is a round 4 minigame similar to Run Pigeon Run (the exact same but with color and only one life). 30 seconds is pretty easy as each song is about 2 minutes long and a later cards requires not missing a note. Biggest caveat is since you have only 1 life if you mess up you have to make it back to round 4 and have a 1/5 chance of getting this minigame again.
8. Spend 75000 crumbs - self explanatory.
9. Achieve a score of 180 in Guilty - this is a round 1 game. You have to choose the pigeon dressed per the music, with the first four rounds being singular genres, and the last four being a mashup of 2. You get 1 point for every pigeon you are faster than, including yourself, so you need to average about 22-23 points per round. This is not too bad if you at least get all 8 correct and are somewhat quick, and other challenge cards require a whopping 220 points and a perfect round. Note there is a bonus that adds points to your score if you manage to grab it.
10. Get an average response time of 0.550s or less in Faster Than Sound - this is a round 2 minigame where you 1v1 another player where you press A as soon as you hear the sound pictured before each round. The unfortunate thing with this game is if you are too soon or too late on any of the 7 rounds it will destroy your time, so you pretty much have to at least answer all the sounds somewhat timely. Also, a later card requires a time of 0.440s and as far as I know you cannot cheese this one like you can with Yes Commander and Oui Votre Majeste.
11. Perform 5 perfect notes in a row in The Final Ride - this is a round 4 minigame where you just have to match the button sequence to the beat. 5 in a row will come within your first game or two, as it is not too hard to get a perfect note (plus your cart moves a lot faster too). A later card requires 15 perfect notes in a row which is insane.
12. Achieve a score of 75 in The Stunt Moles - this is a round 3 minigame where you memorize the beat of the whack-a-moles and replicate it. 75 is pretty easy to obtain, just try to get perfect hits and if you do not remember the full sequence it is better to just not hit anything as each miss subtracts your score by 1. A later card requires a score of 110.
13. Get an average response time of 0.600s or less in Oui Votre Majeste - this is a round 4 minigame and is CHEESABLE. Exactly the same as Yes Commander, but with only one life. 0.6s is pretty easy but later you need a time of 0.450s or less, so here is my advice: If you want to guarantee this it will take some patience and luck - As long as you get ONE correct answer it will count. So what I did was just press A (or whatever button you want) as soon as the king speaks and if you are right, then on round 2 just do the same thing and your average time will be ~0.2 or 0.3 seconds. I know it sucks since you effectively have only a 25% chance of getting this, but trying for this naturally will absolutely take more attempts than just guessing, I can almost guarantee you that so I hope this advice helps for one of the toughest in game challenges!
14. Be the first to replicate an order in Oui Votre Majeste - this is a round 4 minigame similar to Yes Commander and if you followed the advice from 13 above then this will automatically come. But, if you decide to play it out you will still probably get this as there will only be 5 players and the rounds do not get difficult until around round 15 or so. Otherwise, this one is pretty easy.
