Main Menu

The CD begins by showing a short movie, composed of clips from the six Rahkshi animations and the Takanuva one. Once the movie ends, the main screen is shown. The narrator describes how Teridax had unleashed the Rahkshi, and it is up to the Toa Nuva and Takanuva to defeat them.

Wallpapers

Wallpapers

On the upper-left corner of the screen are three buttons. The first one would link to nine different downloadable wallpapers for the desktop, featuring pictures of Mata Nui, Teridax, the Kraata, Takanuva, and the Rahkshi that was packaged with the CD.

Links

Links to various websites

The second button would show three different links on the internet - one to BIONICLE.com, one to the official movie website, and one to the official game website.

Movie

The third button would simply show the movie from the beginning of the CD.

Rahkshi information

Once clicking on the Rahkshi shown in the Main Screen, the narrator will describe the Rahkshi's abilities and powers. Four buttons can be seen in the left side of the screen.

Weapon

The Guurahk CD showing the Staff of Disintegration

An image of the Rahkshi's Staff of Power is shown, and the narrator will describe its powers. Depending on the CD, this can one of the following: the Staff of Fear, the Staff of Disintegration, the Staff of Poison, the Staff of Hunger, the Staff of Fragmentation, or the Staff of Anger.

Kraata

The six Kraata carried by the main Rahkshi

A short explanation about the Kraata is provided, such as about their power to spread infection, or that once they are exposed to Energized Protodermis they can turn into Rahkshi shells themselves. The animated image shows the Za, Ye, Xi, Vo, Ul and Cu Kraata in each of the six power levels (not including the Shadow Kraata).

Set

This screen allows the user to click and spin a 3-D render of the Rahkshi in set form, letting the user see every angle of the set.

Animation

A twenty-second animation of the Rahkshi packaged with this CD is shown. Clips from these animations are used in the starting movie and in the Takanuva animations.

Takanuva Information

Takanuva

In the Main Screen, once clicking on Takanuva, the narrator will describe his abilities and powers. Four buttons can be seen in the left side of the screen.

Weapon

Takanuva's Staff of Light

The narrator provides a short explanation on Takanuva's Toa Tool, the Staff of Light, and its powers, such as the ability to channel Takanuva's Light energy, or throw spheres of Light.

Mask

The Great Mask of Light

Again, the narrator provides information on Takanuva's Kanohi, the Avohkii. He explains how it can be used to turn a foe's anger into feelings of peace, and freeze an opponent in a column of light.

Set

The Takanuva set

Similar to the Rahkshi section, this interactive image can be dragged so it would show the Takanuva set in every angle.

Animation

A screenshot from Takanuva's animation

Similar to the Rahkshi animations, this would also show Takanuva in the dark chamber. Looking around, he senses that the other Rahkshi are closing in on him, until finally they use their staffs to light the ground beneath him in the form of the island of Mata Nui.

Trivia

  • Almost every one of the CDs was printed with the wrong Rahkshi's Staff of Power on its label:
    • Panrahk's CD has Guurahk's Staff of Disintegration
    • Guurahk's CD has Turahk's Staff of Fear
    • Turahk's CD has Panrahk's Staff of Fragmentation
    • Kurahk's CD has Lerahk's Staff of Poison
    • Lerahk's CD has Kurahk's Staff of Anger
    • Vorahk's CD is the only one that features the correct staff: Vorahk's Staff of Hunger.
