Level Guide ----------- Here's a world by world guide, with some hints... Warps take you to the next world. World 1 - Level One: Warp: Get a Teleport Helmet and teleport to the first Room. Now get another Teleport Helmet - but before you pick it up collect a Silver Star. Teleport to Room 2 and pick up the Golden Star there. Teleport. Quickest Route to Warping: Kill all nasties as usual (not capturing any) until you get to the second pair of green-blobs. (Dont kill the frogs on the above platform just yet.) Kill the first one, and capture the second. Pick up the Coin, collect the Cocktail Glass and throw a Big whirlwind to get four Coins. Capture the frog on the platform above to get a Silver Star (thanks to the Gold Coins) and continue killing everything as usual. When you reach the stack of Gold Coins with four gorillas, kill the first and capture the second to get a Gold Star. Teleport to Room 1 and collect the Milk Bottle, Gold Coins and Mask. Now, being protected by the Mask, drop down to the Gold Coins and the remaining two gorillas WITHOUT killing the gorillas. Collect the Gold Coins and break through the wall to the left. Continue going left WITHOUT killing anything, collect the Bonus's and the Silver Star. Now wait by the Bubble Gum Machine until it's safe to remove your Mask. When it is, use the machine and float up and right towards the platform at the top right. Collect the Gold Star - but becareful NOT to teleport. Drop down right and capture a nasty to get a Silver Star - go back to the Teleport Helmet and teleport to Room 2. Collect the Bonuses and the Gold Star. Teleport. Golden Chalice: Use the Teleport Helmet three times. In the third Room there is a Golden Chalice. Collect this and you will start each level super-powered. World 2 - Level One Warp: Get a Teleport Helmet and teleport. Then get another Teleport Helmet but before you teleport go round killing nasties until the NEXT nasty you capture will give you a Gold Star. Now go back to the Helmet and teleport (make sure you dont kill any nasties on the way). There will be a Sweet Machine to your right and a snake and a Silver Star to your left. Jump over the snake, get the Silver Star then capture the snake to give you a Gold Star. Teleport. Bonuses: At the start, go to left-most platform, throw a Big cloud and do a Big jump off it on to the platform above. There are some Points, a stack of Coins and a Silver Star to collect. Also, if you find a balloon in a teleport room, keep it until you find a cocktail glass. You'll then throw four balloons which turn into coins worth 5OOO points each! Beat the Gorilla: If you can get the gorilla to follow you to the *very* far side of the screen (recommend the left side), he will be unable to attack you leaving him vulnerable to your punches. Bronze Chalice: ??? World 3 - Level One Warp: When you find the Diving Helmet, go back to the first pools you passed at the beginning of the level. Jump in and explore. You will find Points, a Silver Chalice and a Teleport Helmet. Use the Teleport Helmet. Silver Chalice: See above. World 4 - Level One No warp (I think). Transport To Get Home: You must get a Teleport Helmet before time runs out (a Bubble will come). If you kill the nasties until you get a Silver Star, and then continue killing to try and get a Gold Star you will find that you are one nasty short. So, instead capture all the nasties on your level and then jump on the nasties below until you get a Silver Star. Then continue killing all nasties (with out capturing any) until the next nasty you capture gives you a Gold Star. Capture the nasty, collect the Gold Star and use the Teleport Helmet. (I haven't actually been able to do this, I got it from Jeff Fabre - I do know that the first nasty you capture will give you a Silver Star though). Bonus Objects ------------- Objects that show up on either the bottom left or right of screen are what you will receive with the next nasty you Capture. The more nasties you kill before a Capture increases the bonus you get. The first bonus's will be sweets (points). After you have cycled through all the sweets you will start getting power-ups. All sweets are shown on the bottom left of the screen, and all power-ups on the bottom right. Here's the list of bonus's in the order they appear.. Sweets Points Pod 1OO Sugar Cane 2OO Ice Lolly 3OO Sweet 4OO Chocolate Bar 5OO Cup Cake 6OO Ice Cream 7OO Liquorice Allsort 8OO Wine Gum 9OO Coin 1OOO Power-ups Effect Silver Star Use with Gold Star. Baby Bottle Extra Life. Cocktail Glass Throw four of the last sweet you picked up. Beer Bottle Walk faster. Coffee Mug Throw weapon faster. Tea Cup Faster power up weapon. Bottled Brew More powerful weapon. Long Glass ? Milk Bottle Restores all lives. Gold Star See below. Gold and Silver Stars - Collecting Gold Stars reveals a bonus, what you get depends on how many Silver Stars you have collected before. No. of Silver Stars Bonus No Silver Stars Mask (Temporary Shield) One Silver Star Teleport Helmet 2+ Silver Stars Bitmap Shades (Turn all nasties on screen into Coins) Nails, Fireballs or Laser Helmet Chalices -------- There three (I think) Chalices dotted around the different worlds. I have been able to find the Golden Chalice (see World One above) and the Silver Chalice (see World Three above), but unable to find a Bronze one. Presumably, it is in World Two, but I don't know for sure, there may even be a Platinum Chalice lying around in World Four. If you find any such things, please mail me. Here's a run down of what I know about them so far... Chalice Where Effect - - - Golden Chalice (World One, Level One) Start each level Super-Powered. Silver Chalice (World Three, Level One) ??? Bronze Chalice (???) ??? Other Hints, Notes and Secret Bits ---------------------------------- When you loose your last life keep your finger on the fire button and the game will start again with your previous score (apparently). Every 1OO,OOO points you become Super-Powered! It IS possible to kill the Bubble that comes and decreases your powers every so often. Fireballs (and possibly Nails) do the trick. At the end of a level you'll receive bonus's for... Nasties killed - You'll get a BIG bonus for killing all the nasties. Original lives - If you haven't lost more than five lives. Big bonus for not losing any. Helmet Bonus - Any helmets you were wearing. Toy Bonus - Having the World Toy (from the end of the world). Star Bonus - For any unused Silver Stars you may have. Warp Bonus - Finding the secret World Warp. Possibly more... Keep an eye out for strange occurings! I saw a JellyBaby sweet I had just got from a nasty, come to life and RUN OFF!! Weird eh? That's all folks! Hope this helps somewhat, and PLEASE mail me if you have ANY information Magic Pockets not included here, what I have is far from complete. Thanks to Jeff Fabre for the Magic Pockets HD installer, and for the original help file he included. - This file is comprised of things from the Aminet, stuff found by Jeff Fabre, and mostly stuff I have found myself, all re-edited for your ease! - Cheers! dELTA tX (Aug^1997) -*- deltatx@dcandy.demon.co.uk
