specified at the start in the time limit given. Easy Mode is for a Dragon Egg,

and Hard Mode is for a Light Gem. With Hard Mode you just get less time to

start with really, though the things are also spread out differently too.

Here you'll be getting Rings, Time-Gates, Targets, Gnorcs and Vultures. You'll

also be given a 3 minute time limit in which to get all these, though going

through Time-Gates gives you +5 seconds, so you could count that as 3:40.First off, take off and head down towards the time-gate on the right. Fly

through it and along through a few more, shoot anything that gets a target to

appear on it. Go through the rings at the end here, and then through another

Time-Gate, a ring and then shoot a Gnorc. In a short while when you get to an

island with several Gnorcs on, make sure to get all four.

Right ahead, you should get the last two remaing Time-Gates as well as the last

couple of Gnorcs, then head off towards the flock of Vultures and take all

eight of them out. Just past the Vultures you should find the last of the

Targets to blow up. If you're still missing anything, then fly around the level

looking for it/them.

That's all for this section of Crocovile Swamp, you won't ever need to come

back here if you don't want to. Anyway, head back to Moneybags shop again.

Follow the steps upwards on the pyramid with the spikes moving on it. Make sure

to jump over the gaps as they contain the same deadly swamp water as the swamp.

to open up the front gate of the temple permanently.

The path to the right of the entrance is currently unavailable due to the fact

that you don't have electric breath just yet. You'll probably want to come back

here once you've gotten that in order to get what's behind the door there.

Step on the small button in front o--------------------------------------o

of where the Light Gem was, and

jump back down to Zoe. Follow the platforms along again, this time going leftat the second split.

And here, you should easily see Blink locked inside a wooden cage. Quite why

it's never said, but step on the small button infront of him to release him.

[ ] - Let Blink explore

Say yes. This is the first of many increasingly difficult mini-games for Blink.

First off to get a Dragon Egg, you'll need to get five Dark Shards, then on the

second run through to get a Light Gem, there'll be more dark gems to get, ten

in fact.

Read the Help if you want to know how to control him, or just refer to the

controls section of the introduction to this walkthrough. Wooden Crates can

simply be shot or punched, Horn Dive chests require you to perform Blink'sequivalent to Horn Dive, except that you don't need to double jump. Blink's

bombs can be thrown a short distance and will stick to certain things. They are

required for blowing up the Dark Shards as well as larger obstacles.

Instead of Zoe everywhere, there are Blink Bomb rechargers which will save your

progress in the current Mini-Game, so if you die and continue you'll go back to

the last one you walked over with the amount of Dark Shards you had then.

There are also several points that will require Blink to dig, these are in

walls for getting around, and at certain points in the floor which will dig up

a few gems. Trina will introduce all these things as you go along the level,

eventually and in an annoying fashion.

Anyway, with the level. Head straight ahead, and when you get into a pit withseveral green vines in, dig at the far wall which when looked at through your

goggles, appears a light pink. Collect some bombs, and then proceed to use one

on the cracked door on your right if you want some gems, and in HARD mode,

there'll be a Dark Shard in here.

Next, jump up onto the ladder type thing, and use Blink's wall kick ability

(even if Spyro doesn't have it yet). At the top, shoot the large spider and

drop a bomb next to the first Dark Shard.

Jump down just past this (HARD: Dark Shard next to the bomb dispenser), and

blow up a large stack of metal crates, you'll need to blow them up twice. And

just beyond them are a couple of spiders and the second Dark Shard. Use the

wall kick section here to get back up, shoot the spider at the top too. Jump upto the next level and then use the wall kick thing there too.

At the top, shoot the two spiders across the large gap with dragon dogs in and

then when the moving rock gets closer, jump onto the bottom of it and Blink

will hold on. Wait for it to reach the other side and then drop a Blink bomb on

the Dark Shard over there too.

On the platform at the end (HARD: Use stone platforms to get up really high

where there is another Dark Shard), jump down to the left where the fifth Dark

Shard is waiting. (HARD: In the middle of the swamp water is another Dark

Shard).

Once you've done both of those, head off to the left of his cage to where

another Moneybags' shop is, Elder's Tree.

Find the Ball Gadget near to where the nursery is, and get into it ready for a

trip to Dragonfly Falls. There's very little to do inside the Ball Gadget,

simply work your way to the other end of the short path to get to the next

level. Select No when you fall into the hole at the end.

Continue on past it, buy another Lock-Pick if you need one, and as you get to

them, flame the goats/rams that charge at you. Very similar to those of the

first game, they even have a shephard behind them. Now, when you reach the

shephard, turn to the right and glide over to the platform with a button on it.

Horn Dive it to activate it.Go up the platforms and use the cannon on the top to destroy the large metal

Use the newly cleared platform to get o---DRAGON EGG 14/80 - Character Set---o

Now head off to the other end of the place where you landed and go through to

the 'right'. Just before you exit the tunnel here, jump onto the boxes and then

up onto a ledge on the left. You'll find a few gems as well as a door locked

until you collect 70 Light Gems. You won't have enough just yet, but you'll

need to come back later if you want to complete the game to 100%.

Now head back to the tunnel again and

out the end. You should appear in an o------------DARK GEM 09/40------------o

land on a place with a small knee-deep pond on it. Then glide over to a

mysterious floating platform in front of the Dragon Elder statue. Jump up to

another and then glide on over to the signpost with a picture of Sparx on it.[ ] - Clear Sparx Shooter

This is the first of the Sparxminigames. As with all other mini-games, you'll

go through once to get a Dragon Egg and a second time for a Light Gem. The

minigame here involves you controlling Sparx and flying him down a tunnel with

loads of bugs and things flying at you and attacking you. Sparx will appear on

screen sort of like a cross-hair, but larger and gets in the way of your view

occasionally, though you get a cross-hair too.

Shoot continuously if you want, I highly recommend it. You'll want to kill the

spiders that drop down as they will hit you if you don't, though the rest of

the bugs can generally be avoided.

Once shot the spiders will sometimes o-----DRAGON EGG 15/80 - Sparx Set-----odrop powerups, and the bugs will | Complete Sparx Shooter on Easy mode. |

11/61

Just get to the end to win. The only difference with Hard mode is that there

are a few creatures on the floor who will attack you much like the spiders do.

Now jump down to the right onto a platform with a Crocovile on it. Go down the

tunnel, flame the bats as they

appear and out to the large open area o-----DRAGON EGG 16/80 - Sparx Set-----o

Now work your way over to the north- o--------------------------------------o

western side of the lake. On the left

up the first step you should be able to see Hunter standing there. This is hisfirst playable level.

[ ] - Retrieve Dragon Egg

That's the whole point of this, though there is a Light Gem too. Unlike the

other extra characters, Hunter isn't a mini-game guy, his levels are parts of

levels and are just a simple change of character rather then being Spyro. If

you want, you can turn around and shoot Spyro a few times. You've got Sparx so

it won't hurt.

Jump up the ledge here and go through a tunnel. Follow the platforms around,

shooting Gnorcs as they appear. Try not to fall into the water below, this cat

can't swim. Trina will give you some helpful pointers at controlling Hunter,

though for the most part it's just common sense.On the ledges with Gnorcs that shoot at you, shoot them and then shoot the

baskets if there are any, the gems will fly towards you so there's no need to

try the impossible jump over to them.

Once you reach Zoe again, go forwards a short way and then jump through the

waterfall to a tunnel. In here you'll find a whole load of gems, a few Gnorcs

and a couple of explosive arrows, similar to what Spyro has for a fire powerup,

but more useful as they are required to be used if you want to get everything.


12/61

Head back out again, and jump onto the climbable surface at the end of the

path. This is really just a demonstration of what you'll need to do in later

Hunter levels as there are only gems to be gotten this way. Head back again.

Now continue along the platforms, take the path to the right and land on the

ledge with some fodder on it. Use an Explosive Arrow on the cracked wall for

some gems and another explosive arrow.Now back to the main track again. o-----DRAGON EGG 17/80 - Flame Set-----o

Now just drop down, you're back at

the start of the Hunter part, and walk back to where Spyro is waiting.

Glide over to the green steps ahead and go up them to where an armouredGnorcis standing, kill it of course. Wander along the path, you can drop down to the

water level if you want, and into a large area, the last part of the level.

There's a Light Gem in here which is unreachable due to the fact that you don't

have Wall Kick right now. So instead, head over to the top of the first

platform you get to in there area.

Wait for a moving platform to arrive, jump aboard and let it carry you to its

destination, though you will need to jump as it doesn't quite reach where you

want to go. Remember I mentioned a

The wall will collapse and a task will be completed. You now have all ten Dark

Gems of this realm collected, opening up the way to fight GnastyGnorc.

Collect the gems and jump into what is now known as a 'thermal', it's basicallyjust the same as a whirlwind from previous titles though, except Spyro looks

like he's about to sneeze whilst he uses it. You'll also need to jump off from

the top yourself.

You might recognise the place now, you're at the place with the spikes coming

out of the ground. You'll now want to be heading all the way back to the start

of the level and getting back into the Ball Gadget to get back to Dragon

Village, as the remaining Light Gem and Dragon Egg can only be obtained once


13/61

you've opened the 70 Light Gem door. It's basically just left now and continue

along until you get there.

from when you get all the eggs of her set. I'm not sure whether Flame is meant

to be male of female really.

| Activate Teleporter |

+---------------------+ Sporting a new look, similar to the picture of him on

the front of Spyro the Dragon, Gnasty has returned

(properly) for the first time since the original game. No long chase sequence

followed by one flame this time however.

Gnasty's bar will appear onscreen with his little face on the right. He'll slam

his club down to the ground, jump over the shockwave and go up behind him to

flame his rear. He'll then smash the ground three times in quick succession, no

chance to flame him yet though. Another slam which sends out mini tornados, andyou can flame him a second time. Again he'll do the three smashes followed by a

larger one, this time with more tornados, jump over them and flame him for a

third time.

This'll 'beat' him and save your progress against him. Talk about making it

easy.

Another burst of three, followed by a smash which starts rocks falling around,

avoid them. He'll eventually do another single smash which will again leave him

vulnerable to flaming. This will repeat the first part again, but with rocks

falling around, flame him two more times to get to another save point.

He'll do the three burst, and then turn his club into an electrical weapon,charge round him keeping just ahead of it, then once he stops he'll do a single

smash again, and he's a ripe for a flaming. He'll now instead of having the

thing chase after you, he'll smash one at floor level to jump over, and another

at jump level to go under, make sure not to mix them up. Flame again. Next

he'll change it to short bursts all the you will need to jump over. Flame him

one last time to defeat him properly.

[ ] - Use Electric Breath


14/61

A fairy called Amp appears out of Gnasty's club and gives you the ability to

breathe electricity now. Press Up to switch to it, Left to switch back to fire

breath. Jump onto the platform ahead and use the electricity to power the metal

thing on it. The platform will now start moving along out of the cave. It'll

require a second burst about halfway and a third too. Once you get to the end

jump off and head back through to Dragon Village.The Professor will start yattering on about his Teleporter and how it's better

then Moneybags'. You'll appear on the teleporter, simply press to activate it

and you'll be given a screen with Dragon Kingdom on it, press R/R1 to select

Lost Cities, then press to teleport there. The usual teleporter loading screen

will appear.

A short cutscene with Red will play out, introducing the new boss for the

Realm. The Professor will again start talking and introduce you to the realm.

it's worth. Use the floating o--------------------------------------o

the far end of the lake.

Once you've got that Dragon Egg, head on back to the first area of the level.


15/61

When you get to the end of the path which you followed into the area with the

piranhas, turn right and follow the path there along. You'll find some more

crabs and things along there before getting to Otto. He'll want you to fill his

pool.

[ ] - Activate 1st Water Wheel

Jump down into the shallow water and head to the other end smiting crabs as yougo. You should see some green platforms at the end with an armouredGnorc

standing a bit back, head up there. Kill all the Gnorcs and things down this

path, and then as you reach a large waterwheel, go over to the lefthand side.

Get up to the highest point of the wall and then jump onto one of the poles

sticking out of the waterwheel, if you have the Tail Spin ability you'll attach

to it. Jump forwards to the other pole, this will turn the wheel and so turn

you, repeat this process as many times as you can as quickly as you can.

There's no need to wait for you to stop moving, you can jump as it's still

going backwards in order to speed up the process.

Once the red bar reaches full, the water outside will rise up half-way.

Back down the bridges again and over to Blink.

[ ] - Let Blink Explore

Another of Blink's underground missions, and as before it's basically the same.First time through for a Dragon Egg, second for a Light Gem.

Jump down the ledge in front of you, and there's the first Dark Shard, though

of course you don't have any Blink Bomb's just yet, you'll find a dispenser

just a fraction away. Jump back up to the start again and then onto the

platform infront, it'll move down towards you. Use the moving grabby platforms

to get across to the second Dark Shard. Jump down off that platform and then

dig through the wall here.


16/61

Head to the right and throw one of your bombs at the large mine sitting on a

platform. Then jump onto the freed up platform and get aboard the platform that

moves down to you. Wait till it gets you to the top and then jump onto the

monkey bars. Follow them along, you'll need to jump down and up again about

halfway, all the way to the other end. There are a couple of spiders here,

shoot them and then jump over to where the third Dark Shard is.Now simply jump down to the large o-----DRAGON EGG 21/80 - Blink Set-----o

and shoot the spiders. Then destroy | mode. |

Dark Shard number four. Throw a bomb o--------------------------------------o

at the nearby mine, use the platform

to get over to the fifth Dark Shard, and relax.

For Hard mode, you'll need to now dig through the wall here. Collect any extra

bombs you need and drop down to a shelf below the place you're standing on,

make sure not to fall into the water. Dark Shard #6 is here. Once it's taken

care of, a rock will fall allowing you to get over to a spider and continue on

with the level.Next to this spider is the seventh Dark Shard. Jump across a couple of

platforms and then shoot a couple of spiders in an area below you. That area

also houses Shard 8. Use a bomb on the cracked wall here, shoot a spider and

then get over to where it was, which is where the ninth Shard is found.

A platform comes down which will take o-----------LIGHT GEM 024/100----------o

o--------------------------------------o

Back in Spyro's world, go to the

right (west) and through a short tunnel to a large open cove. Watch out for the

swinging seashells and tribesmen things.

Note that you can jump over the

fencing at the edge of this area, I just don't recommend it as you will die

upon touching the water for some reason.

Now head to the opposite side of the o------------DARK GEM 12/40------------o

area and work your way up to the top | On top of a blackened tower in the |of the blackened tower. | far west region of the level. |

o--------------------------------------o

[ ] - Access the Sunken Ruins

This will cause a large dome to rise up out of the water nearby and for you to

get a new task, one which isn't immediately needed to be completed, but you

should probably do the first part of it now. Go towards the dome and use the

pillars circling it as steps, get right to the middle of the dome and perform a


17/61

Horn Dive on the circle there. This gives you access to a lift which will take

you to Sunken Ruins. If you want you can go there now, but for the purposes of

the walkthrough, I'll do that later.

[ ] - Collect Reward

o-----------LIGHT GEM 026/100----------o

About time to go get what Otto | On a platform in Otto's pool. |promised. Head back through the caves o--------------------------------------o

to the pool area. On your way back

through the pool though, jump up onto o-----------LIGHT GEM 027/100----------o

Light Gem. o--------------------------------------o

Once you've got that one, head back to where Otto is still standing.

Now head all the way back to the starting area, and go through the path

opposite the one you just came out of. This should be leading to the eastern

section of the level.Here you will find a couple of buildings which spawn tribesmen, Horn Dive them

to stop this, much like you may have done in Year of the Dragon with Sheila.

Head into the far left corner of the area and go through to where there is a 20

Light Gem door, and luckily, you

should have 27 by now if you've kept o----DRAGON EGG 22/80 - Concept Set----o

o--------------------------------------o

In the main part of this area is a

thief. Much like the thieves of the o-----------LIGHT GEM 028/100----------o

first game, he's carrying an egg. | In a cave at the far end of the 20 || Light Gem area. |

Now head down the far end of the area o--------------------------------------o

and jump up into the cave.

All the way back out of the area now, go along the first path to your left as

you get back out. Make sure not to fall into the browny green stuff on the

floor, it will kill you. Continue through the area with a couple of platforms

in, and into a second here.

Go over to the large red and white button and Horn Dive it. This will raise the

two platforms you saw previously. Race back to them and use them to get up to

the slightly higher solid platform. Then jump and glide over to a pole spinning

pole which is used to get to a solid bit of land. It looks over a set of polesand windmills.

o-----------LIGHT GEM 029/100----------o

This will require some good timing. | At the end of a series of pole jumps |

and jump as it passes the point when o--------------------------------------o

you'd get hit. If you're lucky you

should be able to make it to the final pole with little trouble. You will need


18/61

to do a jump and glide from this final one in order to reach the target Light

Gem.

Another tunnel with the same swampy killy stuff in is at the bottom of this

platform which you'll need to jump off now. Go through to where the shop

'Domain Doorstep' is. Jump across

to Zoe and then up to the armoured o-----------LIGHT GEM 030/100----------oGnorc. Then use the electricity | Use a few electric platforms to get |

another part of this area. Kill the o--------------------------------------o

large crabs here and then use the two

powered seashells here to get up to a Light Gem. It's easier to just use the

second one, aim downwards at it and activate it with your breath.

Another seashell nearby will take you almost all the way back to where the shop

was, though you'll have to do a bit of gliding yourself. To the right now, and

you'll find yourself by the entrance to Cloudy Domain. Again, you can use it if

you want, though for the walkthrough I won't be just yet.

Head back out of this area again all the way past the windmills and the swampybits, once you're back in the area that leads to the Light Gem door as well as

the path you just came out of, go to the left and follow a third path out of

here. Make sure to kill the armouredGnorc right at the start of it.

You'll emerge in a large pool area o------------DARK GEM 13/40------------o

Now jump back to where Zoe is, and o--------------------------------------o

then use the poles that go along the

wall. The first three are easy and just require a bit of timing. The fourth

pole moves away and so requries you to jump slightly before it reaches its endpoint nearest you, then again to jump off right at its other end. The next

requires the next one to be at the top, then jump and glide off this one to get

to a solid platform. Jump to a

second and then to a third. o-----DRAGON EGG 23/80 - Spyro Set-----o

[ ] - Save the Turtles o--------------------------------------o

Drop down to the beach nearby and you'll be next to a piece of cracked wall.Smash it to reveal a short tunnel to the Turtle Mother.

This is another of Spyro's Turret Mini-Games, not really what would first

spring to mind of a mini-game designed for Spyro, but whatever, it hardly

matters who's doing the shooting. First Person here, and the task is to protect

all the baby turtles from being stolen by the birds or crabs so that they can

Level nearly complete. You'll only be able to get that last Light Gem above the

waterwheel in this area once you've gotten Water Breath, and you won't be

getting that until you beat this realm's boss. Onwards to Cloudy Domain!

will open up the door to Elder Titan who will promptly teach you Wing Shield.Very useful for this level and parts of others.

off it is to jump onto another

platform which likes to go upwards, so time your stay there right. It'd

probably be best to wait for your current platform to raise high enough to get

onto the platform above the egg, then use the other moving platform to quickly

grab the egg and jump back onto it.Either way, go to the top of the platform where Zoe is. Then jump onto one of

two small circular platforms a little off to the south-east of you. These will

act as your transport for getting to another platform further along. Standing

on one will cause the other to orbit you can so manouvre it into a position

ahead, then jump onto the moved platform and repeat all the way to the other

end.

Once you finally reach it, head round o----DRAGON EGG 29/80 - Concept Set----o

Now, head off to the right where you'll find a new set of platforms to use.

This should lead to a platform north-east of you, there are several gems

floating along the way. At the end you should find a platform with Zoe and a

Dark Gem Shard on it. Go past where

you'll be up by Sgt. Byrd.

[ ] - Clear Sgt. Byrd's Speedway

Fly through the rings straight ahead all the way, shoot anything you can along

the way but don't worry too much at the moment. Once all eight rings are

collected, fly through the archway right near the last one, then down to the

right for the next, continue on through these arches, through a tunnel and out

to another arch with a couple of turrets nearby, destroy all those and fly

upwards, you should see another platform in front of you now with another

couple of turrets on. Off to the left and destroy the turret on a large

circular platform before continuing on to the right where there are a couplemore as well as the final two arches. Head over to the other end of the level

where you should hopefully find the

to miss is the last of the turrets, o--------------------------------------o

it's found on top of one of theplatforms, just under the outer rim so you have to be close and higher to see

it.

Once you're done with Sgt. Byrd's part, walk down the walkway behind you

leading away from Byrd. At the end of it you should find yourself standing over

a glass pane with a Light Gem beneath you. You can't get it yet, you'll need

Wall Kick in order to do so. Horn Dive the nearby switch anyway, it doesn't

really make a difference. Glide forwards to the blackend platform ahead. Try to

keep level with the line of gems and once you land, go around to the left and

activate a switch. This isn't especially useful except that it opens up a path

back to where the as yet unusable

The Dark Gem will heal the final fan of the level and cause yet another set of

stepping stones to appear. Follow those steps over to the Ball Gadget.

You'll be better off holding down speed and forwards for most of the duration

Once you get the Light Gem, select No to exit the Ball Gadget. This brings you

out on the opposite side of the level and a single firework to destroy the

strong chest at the very start of the level. With 1 Egg and 1 Light Gem still

left in the level, there's nothing you can do to get them right now so head on

down with the same thing you used to get into Cloudy Domain.

To complete this level when you come back, you'll require 40 Light Gems and the

ability 'Wall Kick'. That won't be for a short while now so head on over to theentrance to Sunken Ruins (far west inside dome that rises out of the water). Or

you could just buy a teleport pass to Moneybags' Shop 'Waterfall Walkway'

instead of using the fan. This is very close to Sunken Ruins and saves a lot of

unnessacery walking.

opposite side, you'll find a

passageway with a Shard in it as well as a mermaid sitting at the edge of a

pool of water.

Talk to Lily and she'll tell you to follow some markers, I believe she's

referring to a line of gems, but I'm not sure. But whatever, follow the line of

gems if you need guidance of getting through this underwater section, it's not

all that difficult really it's just full of gems and a few enemies.[ ] - Collect 24 Light Gems

Once you get out the other side, kill the large blue crab and talk to the

hologram of the Professor. If you have enough Light Gems (24) then you'll be

able to power the Invincibility Gadget. It's only temporary and runs out quite

quickly, if you want to proress all the way through the level I believe that

you need to use this at some point, though the reason for it being here is a

completely optional Light Gem.

Use the gadget and dive into the o-----------LIGHT GEM 041/100----------o

jump out of the water as fast as you

can as the gadget is designed only to last this long giving you the minimum

time to get through.

Don't worry about swimming back though as the Light Gem will open the window

next to you back to where the gadget is. Now go along the tunnel on the left of


25/61

the green pool, guarded by a trident Gnorc. You should fall down to where

Moneybags' Shop 'The Depths' is.

Through the door and you'll emerge in an area with several Dark Shards as well

as an invincibility gadget, a wall kick that also requires the use of the

invincibility gadget, and a Sparx level which is in the far left corner. If you

accidently fall down to the layers below, there's an electric platform you canuse to get back up again.

again though. Also getting past the

closing doors, slow down to wait for it to close and then as it opens againspeed through. Also use the same sort of tactics for getting past a fan near

the end of the level, though you should obviously avoid the blades.

Hard Mode is just more of the same but more. Also with a couple of things on

the ground and one room full of spiders, other then that it's basically the

same as before.

Once you've gotten them both, or one or none, jump down to the bottom of this

place and collect up all the stuff down there, smash about a bit and ignore the

strong chests, they're related to the currently impossible Wall Kick.

Go through the passageway at the end o---DRAGON EGG 35/80 - Character Set---o

the electric platform and power it

This will take you to an opening in the wall above the fishes. Jump onto the

fan powered elevator at the end just past a Dark Shard and let it take you tothe bottom, failing that just jump down to the bottom and go on through the

passageway/door there. Now comes the first bit with required Invincibility

Gadget to continue on, so it you don't have the 24 Light Gems required by now,

you'll have to turn around and go search for them in previous levels.

If you do have access to the gadget, o-----------LIGHT GEM 044/100----------o

unfortunately they're back at the other end of the green water. Head backthrough, remember to use the gadget first, and then make your way up to where

area again, flame the firework to free a load of gems, and then glide over to a

locked chest nearby.

Now head back through to the area with the newly created doorway, and go on

through. You should eventually find yourself at Moneybags' Shop 'Toxic Rise'

before a large door. In case you were wondering whether that referred to the

previous section, you're wrong. Head through the door to see why.

Over to the left of the large pool you can see another crumbled doorway that

you'll need to get fixed. Go around to the opposite side of the pool where anelectric platform is sitting. Jump off it to the site, either left or right,

you'll have to do both ways, and Horn Dive the switches on them. These will

partially rise a statue out of the pool. On the lefthand one, electrify an orb

thing on the wall and then jump over

Head over to the other end of the room and jump up to an opening. Horn Dive the

switch there and the door will open leading to the very start of the level. Use

the elevator to get back to Coastal Remains and go on over to the start area of

the level, or just use Moneybags' Teleporter to take you to his main shop which

is right near it anyway and is overall just simpler to do.

+---------------------+

Nice subtle hint as to her weakness in the opening

scene, it's her belt if you were still wondering.

Wander around and keep as far away as you can from her, she'll breathe some

green stuff which doesn't reach very far and then yawn, charge into her beltbuckle to injure her. One of the sections will now go underwater with her so

just stand in the middle part to make sure you're safe, and then an electric

swipey thing will appear on the part that just went under, calmly jump over the

electricity a few times and wait for Ineptune to return.

She'll throw a couple of green bombs in your direction, simply charge a little

out of the way and then she'll repeat her breathing exercises. Again just the

one section will go under, this time appearing with what is probably slightly

faster and reaches further quicker. Just a simple jumping routine will suffice.

Another couple of bombs, another breath another hit and she's 'defeated'. Fear

not she'll still continue on, it's just that the place will sink a little

further for no reason.She breathes first so just keep back for that, it's no different any time so

the distance required is always going to be the same. Two sections will go

under this time so stand on the third and await both to return with electric

lasers on. A few double jumps will be all that is required to avoid them, just

time it right to jump over both in the same jump. She'll arise again and throw

a single large bomb and then breathe again. 'Nother two sections will go, same

double jump routine as before. She'll next send two single bombs at you not


28/61

immediately one after the other but a while after each other, then again with

the breathing, another 'victory' is upon you.

Single bomb and breathe in quick succession. Still just the two platforms going

under again. And use the same jumping tactics again, though now it doesn't

really matter if you're hit as you should have enough hits left to survive to

the end as she gets injured when you hit her. A couple of small bombs and thena breath attack. She'll be down to just the one hit now. The two will go under,

but this time with a twist. One of them will have a top laser as well meaning

you have to time your jumps not to hit it. She'll now bombard you several times

with bombs, a mixture of the two and one variety. Then as usual it's breathing

time. Charge into her one final time and she's properly defeated at last.

[ ] - Use Water Breath

Aqua, a fairy, will now give you the power of Water Breath. You'll need it to

get out. The water has also turned blue meaning you can now swim in it, though

there's little reason to. Go through the exit door and use the water breath on

either of the two water wheels there.

to protect Peggy's playground from Eskimoles and Yetis.

[ ] - Let Blink exploreYou'll find Blink in the area that Dark Gem opened up. He's all ready to go

exploring again. You start off on a Bomb dispenser, so there's no need to worry

about that. This starting area has a few gems, and if you look up at the top of

a wall above an ice pond, you can see a digging section, you can't access this

now and I don't recommend using it when you can as it's one way taking you from

the end of the level right back to here, the start.

Anyway, wander along and go down the tunnel here, avoid the snowballs as you

go. Go over to the left and go down into an area full of skeletons and bear

traps. The traps need to be destroyed with a bomb, the skeletons just take a

single shot however. (HARD: There's a Dark Gem Shard up at the top of the left-
