1. FAQ History

Last Updated - May 18th, 2011

Version 1.1 - Added line breaks and surrounded the stage information with
tildes to set each stage apart from said line breaks. Fixed a few spelling
errors.

Version 1.0 - The guide is pretty much done. I really need to add a couple of
line breaks in some of the stages, though.

Version 0.9 - Forty nine stages done, pretty much done now.

Version 0.6 - Thirty three stages finished, pretty much two thirds of the way
there.

Version 0.4 - Finished a total of twenty stages, nothing much left to do but
grind away.

Version 0.3 - Another nine stages finished.

Version 0.1 - Five stages into the game. I tried out the passwords floating
around to see which ones are good and which aren't. Built the rest of the
guide up.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------


2. Introduction

Crazy Castle series of games, starring anyone from Roger Rabbit and Bugs
Bunny to Garfield and Woody Woodpecker. On top of that, it's just one of
three versions of the same game. Released as Mickey Mouse IV: The Magical
Labyrinth in Japan and Garfield Labyrinth in Europe, it was given a
Ghostbusters makeover when it was released stateside.

You play as Dr. Peter Venkman, who with the aid of his Proton Pack must
navigate his way through 51 floors of this dungeon, collecting stars and
defeating enemies along the way.

A      - Jump, select items in the menu.
B      - Proton Pack.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------


4. Walkthrough

Before the game starts, Peter is randomly walking around, only for a bridge
to collapse right out from under him! Oh no! After falling for a few seconds,
he somehow lands safely on the ground and heads right to pick up a star.
Peter then moves left and, using his Proton Pack destroys a section of the
floor. There's a door right there and he didn't even knock to see if someone
was home, he just goes and destroys the place. Under the block is a second
star, which rewards Peter with the key to open the door next to him. The door
leads to...

Head right to pick up the bomb. Go up the ladder and follow the enemy, either
jumping over him or dropping the bomb to kill him. Pick up the key and your
first star, and use the key to lower the drawbridge. Use your Proton Pack to
destroy the block and drop down to pick up your second star and the door key.
Crawl under the blocks and pick up an extra life before exiting through the
door. The W door warps you somehwere else on the stage, this one takes you
back to the start in case you need to go back to get something.

 Stage Two - 5 Stars - 999 Seconds
 Password - LFBD
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Head right to pick up the first star. Continue on and destroy a block or two
to pick up a bomb and your second star. When you reach the fire, wait for the
enemy to pass in front of you before jumping to safety, and drop a bomb to
deal with him. Climb up the ladder for your third star, and crawl under the
blocks to pick up your fourth. Destroy the lone block and pick up another
bomb, using it to kill the upcoming enemy. Head past the gate and destroy a
block to get the key, and go back to unlock the final star and the door key.
Continue right and jump over the water to finish the stage.

 Stage Three - 6 Stars - 150 Seconds
 Password - VCSB
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Head left and destroy one of the block to get your first star. Continue on
and jump up to reach the second star. Heading left, drop down and pick up the
third star and a heart. Continue left, jumping over the enemy as well as any
shots fired by the cannon to the far left if necessary, and climb up the two
ladders to acquire your fourth and fifth stars. Take the left set of ladder
to the fifth star or you'll get hit by falling blocks, which outright kills
you. Going down the ladder, head right and avoid falling into the water, and
destroy the lone block to pick up a key. Head back to the left to open up the
locked gate, and blast one of the blocks away. The middle block on the ground
contains a free life for you to pick up. Take the warp up and climb the
ladder to get your final star and the door key. Go back down to proceed to
the next stage.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 Stage Four - 3 Stars - 250 Seconds
 Password - TRFF
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Move to the ladder immediately and start climbing. You should be able to get
off on the first level before the monster runs into you. Pick up the bomb and
either jump the monster or kill him with the bomb you just picked up.
Continue up the ladder and destroy the first block on the right for a heart.
Destroy the blocks next to it to pick up a key and your first star. Climb
under the blocks and head back up, and go right past the blocks which should
have regenerated by now. Destroy the left block for a bomb and pick up your
second star. Drop down and use your bomb to kill the upcoming monster if you
wish, there's another right next to you. Unlock the gate from the left
keyhole or you'll be trapped to the right and have to warp back. It takes you
right above it anyhow. Drop down and hope you don't get hit by the enemy,
bomb him and pick up your final star and the door key. Before leaving,
destroy the middle block of the three next to the door for a free life.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 Stage Five - 4 Stars - 200 Seconds

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Jump across the platform to reach the first star. Climb up the ladder and
tear through the blocks to reach the second star. After going through another
layer of blocks, crawl left for the third star. Blast through a few more
layers of brick and jump over the fire to your left for a key, avoiding any
of the shots from the cannon. Open the gate to the right and jump over the
witch, grabbing your final star and the door key. The third block here will
award you with a bomb as well. Climb up the ladder and use it to kill the
witch running around. Walk across the rocky ground and climb down the
makeshift staircase. Destroy the lower left block and crawl under the ladder
to reach the exit.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 4.06
 Stage Six - 18 Stars - 350 Seconds
 Password - NGSF
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Your first stage with a large amount of stars to collect. Climb up the ladder
to make the blocks fall, and use them to jump into the next room. Collect a
bomb and your first two stars. Climb down the ladder and go right, which
leads to another ladder. Go left on the first landing for your third star.
Jump across to smash some bricks for your fourth and fifth stars as well as a
potion. Drop down, avoiding the monster, to pick up the sixth and seventh
stars as well as a key. You can kill the monster if you want to. Head back up
and go left across the closed gate, and go up the ladder for the eighth star
and a heart. Open the gate and head down the ladder, picking up the ninth,
tenth and eleventh stars, as well as the twelfth star just across some water
to the right.

Continue jumping over the water and eventually crawl under some bricks for a
bomb. Head up the ladder and slide across the icy floor for your thirteenth
star. Go down first, and lure the monster up to bomb him. Alternately, you
can use the potion and just run him down. The first ladder nets you a heart,
and going across the water gets you the fourteenth, fifteenth and sixteenth
star, as well as a key. Go back and head up two ladders, nabbing the
seventeenth star right after. Open the gate and go left, jumping across more
water to get you a free life, your final star and the door key. Head back to
the right

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 4.07
 Stage Seven - 2 Stars - 200 Seconds
 Password - QDCZ
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Break the opening brick in front of you for a key. Bust through the massive
pile of bricks to the small opening, which drops you onto your first star.
Crawl left to the ladder and go up. Use the key on the bridge to the right
and jump across to get the second key, which opens up the gate to the left.
In front of the gate you can destroy a brick to acquire a bomb. Use it to
defeat the enemy in front of you, and hopefully while avoiding the cannon you
can pick up the final star and the door key. Head right back to the start of
the stage to finish.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 4.08
 Stage Eight - 4 Stars - 300 Seconds
 Password - KCNG
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You're given three keys and three gates you can open up. Use the arrow key on
the left most gate as the other two just drop you into pits of fire. Head
right again to pick up another set of keys. This time, use the circle key to
open up the middle gate. Head right a third time to pick up some more keys,
if you can, and if you couldn't guess you need to use the X key on the right
gate. There's a very large pile of breakable blocks below you, with two stars
hidden inside. Burn through them and then make yourself a hole all the way to
the bottom. The third and last star are here, along with your door key and a
bomb.

The crystal in the middle always transports you to the left, so you have to
jump over it to continue. Destroy the lone block on the right. and jump over
the two large crystals to the left down here. Crawl under the block hanging
down in front of you, as spikes will shoot out of it. Do so again on the
second half of the two longer ones hanging down next, and the middle one on
the final stretch. If the monster from before is alive and chasing you, go
ahead and bomb him now. Destroy one of the two bricks and drop through the
hole below. You can climb up the webbing and go over the fire to reach the
door to the next stage.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 4.09
 Stage Nine - 3 Stars - 250 Seconds
 Password - TRBD
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Head right and dig down to pick up your first star. Go down the ladder to the
left and jump over the pit of fire, which now features a fireball jumping out
of it, to get the second star. Go down and jump over the water to reach some
blocks surrounding a heart as well as a key. Pick them up and head up the
ladder. Jump over the water, the icy floor can send you into it, and you're
already at the final star and the door key. Go back to the start and head
across all of the blocks. Jump over the water, pick up the bomb and use your
key to drop the bridge. The next section of blocks has an enemy running
around on top of it, use the bomb if you so choose. You can collect a clock
if you dig down the left side a little bit. Continue digging on the right
side to reach a key, and keep moving so you don't get killed by the
regenerating blocks. You'll reach a ladder that takes you down to a bridge,
which leads right to the final door.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 4.10
 Stage Ten - 6 Stars - 220 Seconds
 Password - LGCK
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Crawl right to begin with, and instead of pressing up to climb the ladder,
jump first so you can avoid the cannon right next to it. Pick up the bomb and
potion before climbing up the next ladder, bomb the witch and pick up the
first two stars. The next level up has a witch and a cannon to the right. You
can pick up a bomb to the left to deal with the witch, before heading up
either ladder. Another witch is roaming around here, with a heart to pick up.
Yet another witch is on the next floor, and a third star is to the right.
After climbing up yet another ladder, avoid the cannon to the left and make
your way to the next ladder. Start moving upwards, picking up the heart and
bomb along the way. Crawl along under the blocks and take the ladder up to
the top, nabbing your fourth and fifth stars along the way. Before getting
the final star below you, you can head into the warp door for a free life if
you want, but you have to walk back up the majority of this stage. Either
way, avoid the final witch, get the final star and your door key.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 4.11
 Stage Eleven - 4 Stars - 400 Seconds
 Password - WGRD
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Head down the ladder to your right, and go down the double ladder to your
left. From here, take the left ladder down to a bomb and start digging,
avoiding the cannon fire until you're down at least one layer. Grab the heart
and then the key that you came down here for. Go back up two ladders,
avoiding or bombing the monster walking around up here, and use the key on
the first gate. Go right for another key, and then head left. Take the far
ladder down as the middle one will leave you in the drink, and pick up your
first star. Continue down, being careful again of the water, to pick up a
clock and another bomb. Move back to the gate you opened and head right to
open a second one.

Use your bomb on the enemy here and head left, to find a big pile of blocks
to break through. There's a heart and a bomb here, and a key if you dig far
enough. Take the warp right next to the key which takes you right next to the
gate the key opens up. Do so, and head down the rocky section, bombing the
enemy along the way. Crawl along the bottom for another bomb and another key,
and keep crawling into a hidden warp, which is the only way out of this area.
Move upwards and drop a bomb for the monster coming down towards you. Keep
going to reach another warp door, which takes you back to the very start of
the map. Open the final gate and crawl across to pick up your second, third
and final star of the map, as well as the door key. Go right to finish the
stage.

 Stage Twelve - 19 Stars - 350 Seconds
 Password - TCMF
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Your largest star count yet, start by burning through the ice to pick up your
first three stars. Break one more and go down the ladder. Go left for your
fourth star, and burn through the blocks to your right for two keys. Head
down the ladder and drop down to the bottom, picking up three additional
stars to the left. Go back up, either by ladder or crystal, and open the gate
with the X key and your eighth star. Go through the warp to make your way
back to the beginning. Go right and burn the left and right blocks away above
the opening, and crawl down to grab your ninth and tenth stars. Burning the
middle block drops you into a hidden warp, back down to where you just were.
Use your circle key to drop the gate above the pit of fire, the warp gate
down there doesn't help you. Go down first, avoiding the witch and picking up
another star, then go up.

Crawl under the blocks to get a bomb, a heart and a star, and drop down. Jump
over the crystal and bomb the witch to move on, and jump from left to right
instead of just falling down, which would leave you in some fire. Burn
through the block for your thirteenth star, and head right. One of the blocks
will fall, but not until you've already walked under it, and some spikes will
shoot out of another. Jump the crystal and the witch, and watch out for
spikes coming for you from the ground. There's one set right after the
crystal you're jumping, and another about four blocks away from the second
crystal. There's also a couple of blocks that will fall your way. Go up and
find a star and a free life, but don't take the warp. Head left for your
fifteenth star, and go left to the pile of bricks. The giant crystal here
doesn't do anything, so it's not necessary to jump it. The final four stars,
and your door key, are hidden in the two blocks on the bottom left and bottom
right of the pile. Go through the door to finish the stage.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 4.13
 Stage Thirteen - 11 Stars - 600 Seconds
 Password - RBCN
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Drop down for the obvious first star, and then head left. Jump the three pits
of fire, head down the ladder and burn through the leftmost block of the
bottom layer to get a heart. Jump across for a key, and climb all the way
down the ladder. Dropping down the side drops you in some water. Pick up the
star and take the warp. Pick up the third star before you dig your way down.
There's a bomb at the bottom, which is the only reward you're going to get as
all twenty of the blocks are empty. Take the warp and start off across the
bridge, bombing the monster on the other side. Go down and head all the way
right for a bomb, breaking through some blocks along the way to pick up the
other bomb and your fourth star. Burn through the right chunk of blocks and
drop down, avoiding the witch. You can burn through some more blocks for the
fifth star.

Head down the ladder for a heart, and go left, using your bombs on whatever
happens to get in front of you. The sixth star is buried in this section, and
you can go left for another bomb as well. Don't take the warp, as it will
take you all the way back to the start. Go right and burn into the open
section for your seventh star, and go right to the first ladder you see.
Climb up and go right, and burn into another hole for your eighth star. Pick
it up and head right. You should have the circle to use on the pulley, so
head inside. Jump around the two witches and burn your way to the ninth star
and an arrow key. Head back out and go up the first ladder you come across.
All the way to the top leads you to a room with water on the bottom, a heart
and your final two stars, giving you the door key. Head left, back towards
the warp gate I told you not to take, and bust through the ground to find
another pulley. Use your key and enter the door to finish this stage.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 4.14
 Stage Fourteen - 40 Stars - 280 Seconds
 Password - NBMF
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Forty stars, and only 280 seconds? This looks like the toughest stage by far,
but it's actually rather easy. It's just running around, picking up easily
visible stars while avoiding a bunch of monsters. Start by dropping down for
a bomb and head up. Pick up the two stars you see, head up and pick up two
more, head down for two more and keep going down the stairs for two more.
Head all the way up the ladder to increase your count to ten, and then go
left. Pick up two more stars and the heart, and jump across to make the
monster, or monsters, fall in the hole if any of them are following you.
Then, jump back and nab those other two stars. Keep going left for two more
stars, and go down the ladder if you can. If not, jump across and wait for
the monsters to pass and then go back and down the ladder.

Go to the top left corner to pick up for more stars, bringing you to twenty
and half of the stars on the map. If you get stuck here, you can try to bomb
your way out or just eat some damage. Head down for one more star, down for
another star, and down some more for another lone star. Go down the final
ladder for five more stars and a heart. Back up the same ladder, go right for
another three stars, bringing you up to thirty one. Go right some more for an
extra life, head up the ladder and go left, going down the first ladder you
reach. Jump across the gap for another star. Drop down, go down a ladder and
head left for four more stars, bringing you to thirty six total stars.
Continue moving through this area for the final four stars and your door key,
which is in the same area.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 4.15
 Stage Fifteen - 27 Stars - 550 Seconds
 Password - GPBL
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Climb up for your first star, and then break through the ground where you
started to fall to the second. Break through yet again for your third star,
and head left beyond the door. Go down the ladder and head right for a total
of three stars, and take the leftmost ladder. Pick up your seventh star in
the bottom left corner, and head past the first ladder to the second, and go
up it for your next two stars. Go back down the ladder you just came up and
head right, picking up your tenth, eleventh and twelfth stars. Head right and
burn through to the next star under the ladder, and continue right until you
reach the side of the stage, bringing your star total to fifteen. Go up the
second ladder from the right, getting yet another three stars.

Continue going up ladders, and pick up one star on the second, third, fourth
and fifth stars, which should bring you up to twenty two. From the top of the
bridge pyramid, climb up a bit of the wall to reach the landing above you and
jump to the icy ground. Head right for a heart if you need it, otherwise jump
left and get your twenty third star. Go back down or jump to the left, you
need to reach the ladder up against solid ground either way. Continue left
and break the block for another star, and go to the top of the left ladder
for your twenty fifth star. The last two stars and your door key are waiting
for you one level up and to the right, and once you pick them up jump over to
the single ledge to the left. Fall down and break through the ground, and use
your key to open the gate. Fall down and the door is just a little to your
left.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 4.16
 Stage Sixteen - 27 Stars - 400 Seconds
 Password - RBCT
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Pick up the first star to your left, and dig down through to your second
star. Continue digging on the left side to avoid the fire and pick up your
third and fourth stars, as well as your fifth star one layer later. After a
few more layers, you're presented with the door to end the stage and two warp
doors. Both of them take you back up to the start, so enter whichever one you
want. Head right and stay towards the top and you'll eventually reach two
more stars, bringing you up to seven. Fall down the gap for number eight and
head left for your ninth star. Go down the ladder a short distance and jump
across for a star, and head back to the ladder. Instead of going down,
destroy the block next to it and fall on top of a star, and then jump some
fire to reach another. Head back up top and move across, going right this
time after falling down the gap.

There's two more stars down the ladder next to you, bringing you up to
fourteen. Collect them and climb back up. Jump across and grab the ladder and
climb all the way to the top. Jump over the fire and the two witches, and
crawl the rest of the way as there's some spikes that will try and take you
out. You get two stars and a heart, which you may want to use after you make
your way back to the ladder. Go down the ladder and grab the seventeenth star
right in front of you, and fall off the ledge to land next to another heart.
Go down the ladder and grab the eighteenth and nineteenth stars. Keep going
right and go down the sole ladder to reach another star, and go across the
fire to reach another two. Climb the long ladder and jump over the crystal,
which teleports you back to the very start. Dig around the crystal to reach a
star, a heart and a key, and eventually fall down into a section with your
final four stars and the door key. Use the key to open the gate from the
right side, climb back up the ladder and take the crystal back to the start.
Dig back down to the door to finish the stage.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 4.17
 Stage Seventeen - 7 Stars - 250 Seconds
 Password - RCNG
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A monster comes right after you the second the stage starts, don't bother
jumping over him as the only thing over there is the door. You can jump him
to let him get in front of you instead of trying to outrun him. Either way,
climb the ladder up past two cannons and destroy the brick guarding the first
star. Continue climbing past the third cannon until you reach the icy
landing. Jump across it to get your second star, and fall off the edge to the
left. Dig a short way down here for your third star and a bomb, which you can
use on the monster to your immediate right. Continue right until you see a
free life buried, go ahead and dig it up. During this you should see a heart
down there as well, so head towards that next. Once you reach it, jump left
into the open space and dig straight down for your fourth star. After that,
crawl over and down for your fifth and sixth stars, then continue by crawling
to the right. This leads to your final star and the door key. Just dig
through the bottom and go right.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 Stage Eighteen - 12 Stars - 500 Seconds
 Password - FCRF
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

First, go right and jump over the witch to pick up an early bomb. Jump back
over the witch and take the ladder to the upper left for a second bomb and
your first star. Be careful of the ceiling here as a block will fall down. Go
back right and climb up the other ladder for your second star. Go down the
stairs and to the right. Over the pit of fire is your third star as well as a
cannon, so time your jump so you don't get blown up. Go down the ladder and
break the left bricks to make your way into the next star and a warp door. It
takes you right back outside, next to the blocks. Continue right, and go
ahead and use your two bombs on two of the three witches here since another
pair are buried right below you. Break open the blocks to pick up the bombs
and your fifth and sixth stars.

Continue on and dig out the next two stars as well. Go up the ladder to your
left and dig through to the potion, then jump over to the ladder and take it
up. At the top, move over and let the two blocks fall so you can safely cross
the fire to your ninth star, and then head down to the icy floor. Don't slide
into the water. Go right and into the crawlspace for a heart, and then head
down and dig out your next two stars. Go back up the ladder and head right,
crawling at first to avoid some spikes, and then climb up to reach a key.
Jump over the warp door to pick up a free life, and then ride it over to the
left. Climb up to the ladder and cross the bridge, keep moving so you don't
fall through the broken part of it. Jump and climb the wall again, up and
over the tall ledge, and be careful of the witch when you fall. Use the key
on the pulley to reach your final star and the door key.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 Stage Nineteen - 11 Stars - 300 Seconds
 Password - YBRD
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Move left, ignoring the first two sets of blocks. Jump the enemy and break
the middle block of the third set for your first star, and the left block of
the final set for a bomb. Head over and dig down to the second bomb, but
don't break the block out from under it. Instead, break the one to the left
so you don't fall into the fire. Jump the fire and go right to collect your
second star, and a little further in you can crawl to your third. Head back
to the fire and dig down to a third bomb. Jump out of this space and use one
of the bombs on the monster around here, and then take the ladder. Dig
through the blocks here for a heart and two more stars to the right, and when
you dig through the bottom beware of a cannon to your right. Crawl to avoid
getting hit not only by it but some spikes coming up.

Climb the ladder for your sixth star, and destroy the lone block to pick up a
key. Head down and right, and jump three blocks out to avoid landing in more
fire. Jump left and break the first block to get a star, and jump over the
block directly next to it to avoid some spikes and pick up the eighth and
ninth stars. Continue by going right over the fire and picking up the tenth
star, and keep going right. Avoid the falling block and the wandering enemy
and head up the ladder. There's a cannon on both sides of you this time, the
one on the left at your level and the one on the right one block up. Go right
and jump up to collect the extra life, and then go left and jump onto the
ladder and use your key to lower the gate. Jump over the space right under
the ladder as it's broken and will drop you right into the cannon's path, and
collect the star. The block above you will fall down, avoid it and go up the
ladder to finish the stage.

Not a lot of time to tackle this stage with, but don't worry as it's the
easiest stage in the game. Jump towards the extra life to pick it up to avoid
some spikes. This is pretty much how you need to approach the entire stage.
Just keep moving right, jumping all the way, and it's a straight path to all
eight stars. There's a handful of spikes and one enemy, but as long as you
just keep jumping you'll have to get rather unlucky to die before you reach
the door.

Head right and jump both of the enemies waiting here for you to pick up a
bomb. Use it on the monster that's going to be coming up the ladder any
second. Take the ladder down and pick up the first two stars in here. The
pile of blocks here contains nothing, so move on down the next ladder. The
left block in the middle row of the blocks here contains a key, so pick it up
and go left for your third star, avoiding the enemy here, and then head down
the ladder some more. Go right, ignoring the blocks here and jumping over any
of the cannonballs. Head up the long ladder, and go right to open up the
arrow gate. Down here you can pick up a heart in the fourth block from the
left of the second line of blocks, so get it and dig the rest of the way
through. Proceed down for your next star and crawl out, dropping straight
down to avoid the fire.

Continue on to dig out the next two stars which are in plain sight, and move
left. Dig around here and make your way to the block right on top of the left
most piece of solid ground to get an extra life. Keep going down and try to
drop through the middle space of the five blocks to avoid landing in the
flames, and head right. Jump off of the edge instead of falling, or you'll
fall right into cannon fire, and jump over the two standard enemies here.
Jump over the monster and leave a bomb for him, and then head down to pick up
another three stars. Go up the ladder now, eventually reaching another key.
Take it up the ladder again, reaching the door that you're not able to open
yet. Instead, take the warp and it will deliver you right next to the gate
for that key you just grabbed. Open it up and head down, picking up your
final star and the door key. From here, just retrace your steps back to the
door.

Head left to pick up your first star while avoiding the cannon and the spikes
that shoot out below where you'll probably jump. Break through the blocks for
a bomb, and pick up the free life hidden inside the left most block. Head
right and pick up the star that's opposite the bomb. Continue right past the
next cannon and break the blocks here for your third star, and head back to
the previous pile of blocks. From here, fall down the right side of the wall
and land on the icy blocks, taking the first section down. Collect the two
stars down here, and if you dug yourself down in a way that you can't jump
out take a swim and walk to the right and you'll warp out. From here you can
climb up to another warp door, which takes you back to the original blocks.
Drop right again, but jump over the first hole and get the sixth star, and
then break through the lone block in the floor.

From here, destroy both of the left blocks on the top row, and the middle two
blocks in the opening of the second row to reach your seventh star. Go back
up and wait for the blocks to regenerate, using the clock you picked up from
that lone block if you want to, and burn the top two blocks again. Now,
destroy the two below them and then the one on the left to crawl down to the
key. Keep crawling right for another star, and drop down to the icy ground.
Jump over the enemy and into the small section to the right for your ninth
star, and then head up the ladder and use the key you just acquired. Pick up
the star and go through the warp, and then drop left this time. Take the
first hole down for the final two stars and a door key, and then break
through the ground. Head over and take the warp door again and drop left one
final time. Jump over the first hole and drop down, jump over the enemy and
enter the door.

Look at those numbers, less than four seconds per star? Pick up the bomb and
go right for your first star. Burn through the blocks up ahead, the bottom
left one contains a key. Continue right and use the key to pick up an extra
life, and walk under the three falling blocks. Go up the ladder and go right
for two more stars, and then jump onto the ladders. There's a heart and a
grand total of eleven stars here, bringing you up to fourteen total. Climb
the ladder and jump on the blocks going right for a heart and two stars, and
then pick up the key, all while avoiding the cannon. Jump the cannon and grab
the key above the gate, and drop the gate with the first one. Jump along the
blocks over the sea of fire, picking up five stars along the way. Open the
third gate and grab your final star and the door key, and exit the stage.

They sure like these short, quick stages all of a sudden. Burn the four
blocks to pick up a heart, a clock and two stars. Go ahead and use the clock,
and wait for the monster to come over and fall in the hole you created.
Ignore the warp doors for now and keep digging out the items, including a
bomb and five stars, bringing you up to seven. Go back and take the first
warp door, which takes you to a room with two stars and another warp. Destroy
the blocks while moving right so you can safely pick up both stars and take
the door without waiting for anything to regenerate. Up here, grab the bomb,
the free life, the potion and both of the stars, and then drop back down the
middle. This time take the right warp, which for me always dropped me right
next to a witch so deal with that whatever way you want. Grab the bomb, the
key, your final three stars and the door key. Jump down onto the platform to
avoid having to take the final warp door and use the key to create a path to
walk across.

Just the opposite now, lots of time and few stars. Head left, jumping the
crystal and the witch, and head up the ladder. Break the block for a potion,
jump the witch and start breaking the blocks. You'll reach a key and your
first star. Go back around and head up, jumping across the pools of water to
reach a gate for your key. Go up and right, jumping over the crystal and
eventually the witch, and break the middle block to pick up a heart. Now go
back and jump up the blocks to the top left, and take the ladder. Go right
and jump over the water, there's a cannon here but as long as you don't fall
in the water it should never fire at you. Head up and start breaking the
blocks, and crawl through and jump over the gap. Break the single brick and
crawl through some more, and pick up a heart and your second star. Walk up
against the left wall to teleport to another room, and pick up the key, the
potion, two stars and the door key. Break the right block and fall through
for a free life, and head way back up to the pile of blocks at the top. Head
left from here and drop the gate to walk across into another hidden warp,
which takes you to the exit.

Walk forward to pick up the first star right in front of you. Climb the
ladder that's flanked with cannons to reach your second star, and continue up
for a free life. Continue right to find a large pile of blocks, with four
stars and a bomb buried towards the surface. After digging them up, continue
digging below the rightmost star to find a hole and drop through it. Bomb the
enemy coming towards you and and pick up your eighth and ninth stars. Drop
down and wait for the blocks to fall to make it safely accross the fire and
pick up the tenth star, and then drop down for the eleventh star. Open the
gate, pick up the key and walk over to use it on the next gate. Walk over the
gate to teleport down to your final star and the door key, and then teleport
back up. You'd think that you would need to retrace all of your steps, but
instead just walk over to the door and jump over the spot that warped you.
You should land safely on the other side and can walk to the door.

then jump over to the third section. There's a total of six stars on this
section, and you should notice a monster falling off the edge of the next
one. Follow him back up the ladder and grab the potion, and then continue
right. Climb up and over and break through that side, picking up the heart
hidden inside. Keep breaking the blocks and crawl right, going up the ladder
for your tenth star. Head left, jumping the enemy and taking the ladder up.
Cross over the blocks and burn through to get the arrow key, and then head
right. Use your key and break through the blocks to pick up your eleventh
star, and after waiting for the blocks to regenerate break through them again
to pick up the key and move on up the ladder. Take the warp over and open the

Start the stage by breaking the three blocks on the right of the top four,
and then the three that were directly under them for a key and a star. After
that, you can also dig up a potion in the bottom right corner if you wish. Go
left and use the key to open up the gate, and fall down. Skate along the icy
ground to pick up the second star, and wait to jump an incoming cannonball.
Take the ladder up and over the fire, and skate along some more for a heart
and your third star. Go half way up the ladder and go right, picking up a
star, a key and another star, and then head up the floating blocks for a
third and fourth star.

Burn the left block here to use your key and drop the gate, and break the
blocks over here to pick up a bomb, a free life and your eighth star. Head
back up towards the second gate and go up the ladder this time. Take the
right path first, grab the star and the bomb and head a little bit further to
find a heart. Now go back and take the left path, and break the block. Fall
down to make the hanging block fall down, and use it to cross the water for
your tenth star. Climb up for the heart and a star, and then start crossing
the water. Your final two stars and the door key are straight ahead, along
with a monster for you to take out and a pair of broken spots on the bridge.

Pick up the bomb right next to you, and start breaking the blocks below your
feet. The second block on the bottom row contains a star, and the fourth on
the bottom row contains a heart. Go for the star first, and fall down through
the gap you made. Head left for a second bomb, you should have a monster or
two chasing after you to use them on already. Climb up the closest ladder and
crawl for your second star. The bottom right brick on this section contains
your third star. Go to the right ladder now and climb it, breaking through to
your fourth star. The bottom left and right bricks here both contain stars,
so dig them out.

Go down the ladder and start digging here. In addition to the visible star,
there's a star in the first and fifth blocks of the third row, and the second
block on the bottom row contains a heart. Go to the left set of bricks just
like this one, and start breaking them as well. The fourth block of the
second row contains your tenth star, the fifth block on the third row has
your eleventh, and your twelfth star is visible in the corner. The opposite
corner contains a heart, and the middle block on the bottom row contains a
free life. Now head up the middle ladder to the very top, and dig your final
two stars and the door key out, one star located in each row. To reach the
door, head to the top right cluster of blocks and climb the wall a short ways.

Start by going down the ladder to pick up the X key. Use it on the pulley and
take the first ladder down to that bomb you saw and your first star, and then
go back to the pulley. Head up for the arrow key and your second star,
bombing the monster along the way. Don't break that block yet, head right and
pick up both of the stars in this room, and try not to get hit by the cannon.
There's a jumble of bricks in here with a bomb and three stars pretty easily
available, grab them and take the ladder at the bottom. Dig down here for
your eighth star and a key, as well as a free life in the block right above
the one in the bottom left corner. You'll be warped back above when you grab
the key, so make your way back down and use it on the pulley, bombing the
witch if she starts coming towards you right away.

Pick up the X key and the circle key, and then take the warp door at the end
of the hallway. Head down the ladder and go right, jumping the witch when she
comes along. Use the arrow key and go up to get a bomb, skipping the warp
door. Go up and use the two keys to open the first set of pulleys, bombing
the witch in the middle. Head left to pick up a cache of treasure, two bombs,
a star and one each of all three key varieties. Head back and go up, opening
up the second set of pulleys and bombing the two witches in between. Pick up
the two stars and take the warp door in front of you. Jump over for the bomb,
and come back and  break the lone block to pick up your next star. Drop down
and grab a second bomb. Dig the two keys out and make your way down to pick
up the thirteenth and final star. Open another two pulleys, and bomb another
two witches, and then take the ladders up to the exit.

The blocks you start on top of are all empty, so pick up the bomb and the
same thing applies for the second floor. Pick the bomb up, use it to kill the
enemy and drop down to the third. The same thing applies here, drop a bomb,
kill the enemy, pick up a replacement bomb. Only now you finall get a pair of
stars. The fourth level contains the same as the above, but two bombs and one
star. Finally, exit out of this repetitive section to the left and pick up
another bomb and your fourth star. Head left and jump over the fire, and you
might as well use one of those bombs to kill the enemy. There's two stars at
the end, pick them up and head back to the ladder. Go up the ladder and jump
to the right for two stars, and go left for two potions and a heart. Your
inventory might be too full to pick all of this up by now. Go up the ladder
and avoid the two cannons. Up one more level you have an enemy you may as
well kill, and the next level up has two more cannons. Your ninth and tenth
stars are atop the two cannons, grab them and and continue up the next
ladder. Head left and go down the next two ladders to pick up your final two
stars and the door key, which is located under the blocks to your right.

Pick up the star to your right and drop down off the ladder. You'll land next
to a key, pick it up and use it on the pulley to the right, as the one on the
left just rewards you with the same key again. Go up the first ladder and
jump right. Break the blocks and crawl into the middle space. From here, go
up and around to pick up a star, and crawl to the middle again to get out of
here. Head up the next ladder and break the blocks, grabbing the potion and
making your way up the ladder to your right. Watch out for the cannon to your
right when you get to the top, and go left to pick up your third star.

Continue right and break the lone block to get your fourth star, and then go
up and over the wall to get your next one. Start breaking these blocks, none
of them contain anything to pick up, and head down the ladder at the bottom.
The next pile of blocks contains two stars and a key, and once you reach the
bottom of these bricks you'll get another two stars. Break through all of
these blocks and crawl to the left, and start manuevering through the ladders
to reach your final star and the door key. Head up the ladder and crawl left,
and when you come out jump over the witch walking around. Keep going left and
use your key on the pulley, and go down the ladder. Walk right, all the while
avoiding spikes from the bottom, to reach the exit.

Start by skipping the first pile of blocks and go down either hole to the
left of them, they lead to the same place. The middle block of the third row
down here contains a free life, pick it up and crawl right for your first two
stars. Crawl back and go left this time, up the ladder and climb the wall for
your third star. Jump across for the fourth star and continue left, crossing
over the still locked gate. Stand on the right cannon and jump to the left to
dodge both of the cannonballs that are going to come your way, and break
through the blocks to reach your fifth star. After breaking through the next
single layer, you have two sets of two layer blocks right next to each other,
so make sure you break a long row of blocks to start with so you have room to
break through the second set, and grab the sixth star on the right side in
between the rows. Once you're at the bottom, take the bomb and move right and
break the lone block to get a key.

Continue down and drop down for your seventh star, and then jump back to the
ladder and go left for another three stars. The single block above the warp
contains a star as well, so pick it up and head on through. Go back up and
over the water to reach the previous gate, and open it up with your key. Drop
down for a star, and break through all but the bottom layer of blocks. Crawl
right for your thirteenth star, and then break the last brick and drop down.
Head towards the next set of bricks, breaking them from the left to reach
your next star. Break a block or two and head right for your fifteenth star,
and continue down to reach a set of two ladders. Take the right ladder and
break through the blocks to reach your sixteenth star, and crawl right for to
reach the short ladder. The block on the left next to the ladder contains
another star, grab it and smash through the blocks and then take the warp
door. None of the other ladders in that section lead anywhere new. Head right
for your final seven stars and the door key, which is directly to the left of
the stars.

An even 100 seconds apparently is too much time, but to be honest 99 seconds
is way too much as well. Jump around on the blocks, which are floating in the
air above pits of fire, and collect five of the six stars. Immediately to the
right of these blocks is your final star and the door key below a single
block, and after you pick it up crawl to the left one space to make a block
fall. Head left to finish this incredibly easy stage.

Head left and dig out your first star, I like to make a pit to stick the
monster in at the same time to try and kill him. Break a block or two to
crawl around and pick up stars, there's two, three and four on the three rows
going from top to bottom, bringing you up to ten already. Your eleventh star
is to the right of these lines, just jump off from the second line to pick it
up. Drop down to the blocks on the right, there's three stars hidden inside
here. The fourth and eighth blocks on the second row and the lone block in
the third row hold them, bringing you up to fourteen. Falling through the
hole leads to another set of blocks, there's none hidden inside any of them
but there is a visible one you need to pick up. Head left for now, jumping
over the first crystal but taking the second one to warp you to the top. Go
left and up, jumping over the fire for two more stars. Go all the way down
the ladder to the bottom and head right on the icy ground, jumping the fire
to reach another two stars.

From here, lead left past the ladder and the witch, jumping the crystal, and
pick up a heart and a star. Head up the ladder and fall off towards the water
to the left, you'll land safely next to the solid ground where some of the
climbably background is. Pick up the heart and the star and fall into the
middle of the water, which warps you to the left to pick up a star and a key.
You should be down to two stars now, take the warp door and head right. Below
where all the blocks you had to break through is a gate to open with your new
key, do so and pick up the star which should also cause a block to fall above
you. Walk across, waiting for the blocks to completely cover the fire along
the way, and jump the crystal and the witch for a heart and your final star.
Now take the crystal and head left, jumping over both of the crystals you
come across before the long ladder. Jump over the crystal right to the left
of the ladder as well, and go to the crystal to the very left of the stage,
which will teleport you right in front of the door.

Shortest amount of time we've seen yet, head right and break a single block
to trap the upcoming monster and kill him, and then jump up to the ladder
above you, picking up your first star and a heart. Jump over the fire below
you to get your second star, and break some blocks so you can head down
below. Continue left, breaking the lone block to get a key and hopefully
trapping a monster at the same time. There's another three stars down here,
nothing in the blocks so break through them as quick as you can. Go left and
use your key to get the one on the other side, and break some of the bricks
here. The first one on the top row mercifully gives you a clock, and all
three of the bricks on the bottom contain something. From left to right,
there's a heart, a star and a free life. I skip breaking the blocks a second
time for the heart to save some time.

Continue right, crawling under the fire and breaking the lone block to get a
heart here instead, or just go up the ladder and head right if you're worried
about the time. Continue from ladder to ladder, jumping over the small bit of
fire and ignoring the blocks for now as they contain nothing. Grab the
seventh star and head up dodging the cannonball at the top of the next
ladder. Head up and go right, landing safely on the scalable wall and use
your key on the pulley. Dig a hole up here and wait for the monster to fall
through, and then head right for your eighth star. Fall down the hole you
made now, pick up the heart and walk left for a hidden warp. Don't worry
about getting hit by the monster as you should have a couple of hearts by
now. Drop down and grab the four visible stars, and if you're really short on
time break the third block first to grab a clock. There's a lot of items
hidden in here, from left to right they contain nothing, a star, a clock, a
star, a star, nothing, a star, a star, nothing and your final star. Head up
the two ladders to reach the door to finish the stage.

Well that's a nice place to start a stage from. Fall down to the ground,
picking up a bomb along the way. Destroy the block in front of you for an
arrow key and crawl to your first star. Jump across the blocks until you get
to the wall, you might fall into the water once from the not so precise way
jumping works, and then head up and to the left. You'll grab another star on
the ice, and jump to your third a few steps later. Use your key to lower the
gate, and then pick up the heart and start jumping up the side. Wait for the
enemies to move if they're in the way and then jump on the blocks. Go break
the second block to your right that has empty space under it to keep the
enemies away from you for now, and start breaking the blocks starting from
the left.

After the first row, switch and start breaking the blocks from the right,
which should leave you with a diagonal line of blocks to the left only one
block long on each row. You should be able to reach the star without getting
trapped this way. Get the star and fall out next to the gate you opened
earlier and head back up. From here, climb the wall up to the ladder and take
it to mass of bricks. First, dig down to get that first star you see and then
head across the top of the brick platform  to pick up a bomb and two more
stars. From here, go to the part of the blocks that has an enemy walking
around in it and break your way in. You want to dig straight down to reach
another empty area, and from there you can crawl right to grab your final
star and the door key. Head up the ladder to finish the stage.

Head left to grab your first star, and then go up to pick up your second and
a bomb. Go down the ladder, probably being hit by the cannon along the way,
and jump to the left for a bomb. If you walk off the edge you'll end up in
water. Head right and bomb the enemy if he appears where you don't have room
to jump, and go up the ladder for your third star. Head right and grab your
fourth star, and then up the ladder to your left. Break the block and drop
down for a star, and then climb under the ground to the left of here for your
sixth star. Break the left blocks to drop down and get a clock and two more
stars, and then climb back out and wait for the blocks to regenerate. Break
the right blocks now to pick up a free life and head back to the ladder.

Go right and pass up the blocks, heading down the ladder. When you can fall to
the left, do so to safely land next to your ninth star. Now head back up and
get to smashing blocks. You'll find a bomb at the very bottom, take it and
start crawling to the left.Pick up the tenth star here and continue left,
grabbing the heart in front of you. Before going in the warp, break the four
blocks down there for four more stars, bringing you to half of your total.
Take the warp, grab your fifteenth star and then take the next warp. You're
back at the ladder now, go all the way to the top of the ladder and don't
bother trying to avoid the cannon. Break the brick and head right with your
heart and sixteenth star, eventually finding your way to icy ground.

Slide down it and break the lone brick for a key, and then pick up the heart
and the star. If your health is low, use a heart now because you're going to
have to take a dip. Walk through the water until you reach the treasure, a
bomb, a heart and two more stars. Now take another dip in the water and go
right, and when you get out use your key to drop the bridge. Continue for
your twentieth star and take the warp. Go up to get two more stars and a bomb
if you have the room, and then jump across the blocks for two more stars and
an X key. You have to make room for the key if you have too much stuff, drop
a bomb and fill your health up. With full health, just drop down in front of
the cannons, and go left. All four of the remaining stars, as well as the
door key are right in front of you. Go left to use your X key and reach the
exit door.

Pick up the star in the hole, and then break the block and fall down. You'll
land next to your second star, and break the left block to fall into the
warp. Grab the clock and use it before breaking the block, and fall onto the
pile below you. The bottom left corner contains a star, as well as the space
five blocks over from it. Pick them up and head right, jumping over the fire
and breaking through for your fifth star. Head up both of the ladders and
fall off the top one for a star and a heart. Climb back up and go over to the
left large set of blocks. You need to break the blocks against the right side
so you fall into the correct hidden warp to pick up those other two stars
next to the ladder.

After, head back up the ladders and break through the right set, doesn't
matter where, and grab the two stars down here. Head left and walk past the
door to warp back to the start. Head up again to the first set of blocks,
this time you want to make sure you fall through the hole exactly one spot to
the left of the one you fell through last time. You'll land safely at the
bottom, able to pick up a clock and your final three stars. You'll probably
be needing the clock, so use it and jump left to plummet over by the ladders
again. To finish the stage, go up top and smash through the right set of
blocks again, going left when you reach the bottom.

Head left first to pick up a clock and then break through the floor. Break
through the second block from the left to get your first star, as well as
your second right after, and then break the block up against the left wall to
reach your third. From here, destroy the left bricks to reach your fourth and
fifth stars, and then break the bricks here to the right. There's six bricks
to the right of the warp door and the block in the middle of the bottom row
has another clock. After grabbing it, head through the warp door. Go left
again and break all three blocks up against the left wall, but when you reach
the two blocks down here go down the right side this time. There's no stars
down here but there is yet another clock. Go through the warp and head left
yet again. On the second level, destroy the third block from the left for
your sixth star, and then grab your seventh right below.

Break through the lone block and fall into your eight star, and then break
the block right next to you to fall to your ninth. To get your tenth, break
through the blocks to the left side, it's hidden in the third row. Break
through to the right side and grab the eleventh star and warp to the top
again. You know the drill, head left and go through to the second level. This
time go right and destroy the third or fourth block here, and then drop down
one more level. This time you need to go through the right chunk of blocks.
Break the block hanging in front of you so you can reach the twelfth star.
Head up and right to grab another star, and then go down. In the group of
eight blocks here you can find another clock in the bottom left block, grab
it and warp up. Hey! We get to go right this time!

Break the far right block and then either of the two closest to you to pick
up your fourteenth star. Break the lone block here to reach another star, and
then break the second block out of the five possible blocks you can break
here to get your sixteenth. Break through the rest of the way for another
star, and then break through another level for your eighteenth star. Take the
warp back to the start and go right to the second level again. Go left and
break the furthest block to get a star, and then pick up your twentieth star
and a clock. Break this last block to reach the final star and your door key.
Break through and head down to reach one last warp. Now, to try and remember
where that damn door was! Head left and drop down one level, and then go and
break through either the third or fourth block. From here, break the single
block and then break the next single block you land next to. Break through
the pile of blocks here to finally end this annoying stage.

Those sure don't seem like favorable numbers for you. Less than two seconds
per star, we're going to need some clocks or some large star caches. Pick up
the first two stars on this level, and then go down the ladder for two more.
Jump the witch and the monster down here, and go down a third level for a
bomb and another two stars. There's four stars buried in the top row inside
the second, sixth, ninth and thirteenth blocks. There's another two stars in
the bottom row, inside the fourth and eleventh blocks. The eights block in
the bottom row also contains a much needed clock. Use the clock and head back
to the top and take the right warp door.

This section is almost identical to the one you were just in, two stars on
each of the three floors, but this time there's a heart in addition the the
bomb on the bottom floor. There's still four more stars in the second, sixth,
ninth and thirteenth blocks on the top row as well as two in the fourth and
eleventh in the second row. This time the clock is in the seventh block of
the bottom row, making this section a mirror image of the one you were just
in. This makes half of your stars, who wants to bet that there's two more
mirrored rooms to finish this stage off? Take either warp door, they both
lead back to the original room, and head left now through the other warp door.

This takes you to the bottom right room, which has another two stars on each
floor as well as a bomb on the third floor. For a third time, dig out stars
under the second, sixth, ninth and thirteenth stars on the first row and
stars under the fourth and eleventh in the second row, but this time there's
a free life under the seventh block of the second row. Down to twelve stars,
head up and take the left warp door. For the final time, grab the six total
stars on the three different floors as well as a heart and a bomb on the
bottom. Also for the final time, pick up the four stars under the second,
sixth, ninth and thirteenth blocks buried in the first row and from under the
fourth and eleventh in the second row. There's a clock in the eights block of
the second row but by now you shouldn't need it. The exit door is in the top
left of this room.

Head right until you reach the far wall, picking up the three stars along the
way. Go down the ladder and pick up the two stars down here, and head back to
the very start. Drop down and grab the two stars down here, try and trap the
monster and kill it with a regenerating brick if you can, but don't bother
spending too much time here. Break the right set of bricks to find a star in
the bottom right, and then go to the left set of bricks to find your ninth
star in the bottom left. Break through the middle section and pick up your
tenth star and then head right. Smash through the first set of bricks to pick
up a hidden heart and crawl right for your next star. Crawl back and forth
and when you come to the warp gate keep crawling right to go around for your
twelfth star.

Take the warp and dig through the right set of blocks, picking up another
heart hidden in the bottom block. Jump over the fire to your right for your
next star and then take the warp door to the left. Now break through the
blocks in the middle, this time grabbing the hidden key in the bottom block.
I don't see a way to avoid the cannons but you do have two hearts so they
shouldn't matter. You'll land on your fourteenth heart, from here break
through the right side of blocks. Fall through and go left for your next
star, and then head right up the stairs. Pick up the two stars and take the
warp door back up, and smash through the blocks again. After getting hit by
the cannons a second time, go through the left chunk of bricks and head left.

You need to smash the bricks and grab the star in the bottom right of these
blocks, and be quick about it because you can trap yourself down here just
waiting for the blocks to kill you. Go left, using the key to drop the gate
and grab your nineteenth star and then take the warp door to reach the final
area of this stage. The blocks below you are four rows deep. The final six
stars are all inside the third row of blocks, don't break through to the
bottom because the only thing you can find down there is another large pile
of blocks with a free life in the bottom right corner, which really isn't
worth your time unless you have a lot of it. Head up to reach the final door,
and don't take the warp door because it takes you to a T shaped area way back
towards the start.

Head up the ladder right next to you and jump over the monster. The first
block on the second row contains a bomb, and you can pick up your first star
to the right. Grab it and head back down the ladder. Go right and pick up
another bomb, feel free to use them whenever you want to take care of some of
these monsters, as well as two more stars. Keep going right for a hidden
warp, taking you to your fourth star. The fifth star is in the third block in
the second row, grab it and go right for another hidden warp. Break the left
block for a heart and grab your sixth star, and then head down the stairs to
your right.

Head over the ice for your seventh star, and then climb the wall and jump
over into the space to warp again, this time taking you to your eighth star.
Jump into the obvious hidden warp in this room to head back to the first room
I had you go to. Go back down the ladder and head left, and go up the ladder
to grab the two visible stars. In the jumble of bricks to your left, the
seventh block from the left of the bottom row contains a clock and the second
block on the same row contains your final star and the door key. Go up and
right and crawl into the corridor that contains a witch with no room to jump
over it. Either bomb it or just take the hit. Grab the free life to the right
of the door and finish the stage.

Go left and fall down all the way to the bottom, and head right for your
first star. Go left past the ladder and break the middle block for your
second star, and then climb the ladder to the very top. The second block on
the bottom row contains your third star, and then go right and jump over the
gap. The block on the left edge contains a potion, pick it up and go right.
The block on the bottom left here contains your fourth star, and you can get
your sixth by going up the right wall. Now go back to the left, jumping over
the gap and going down the ladder. When you reach the rocky ground, get off
on solid ground and jump out to the right. You should land on the climbable
wall, go right and make sure to jump over the gap. Even though there's no
solid ground you can still tell what parts of the wall you can and can't walk
across. After you get back on solid ground, jump up for the heart and head
down.

The bottom left block contains a clock, grab it and then break through the
fifth block of the second row for your sixth star. Wait for the blocks to
regenerate and then break them to the right to get your seventh star. Make
sure you break the blocks instead of crawling otherwise you'll get stuck down
there. Now you need to go left back over the invisible ground to the ladder.
Go left and head up the next ladder and get off on the first stop. Go right
and jump over the gap to end up back where you started, now head right. Go
down the ladder and grab the heart to your left, ignore those blocks as
there's nothing in them. Go down the ladder some more and head left onto the
blocks. The second block on the bottom row contains a bomb, you can pick it
up if you want or just move on if you don't want to bother, you should have
plenty of life with the two hearts you picked up. Head down the ladder and
your eighth star is right on your left.

The sixth block on the third row below you contains your ninth star, and the
block on the bottom right contains a free life. The star above you was
probably intended to be pick up by walking across the invisible ground above
you, but you can actually reach it just by jumping up to it. Whoops! Go right
and climb up the ladder until you reach some blocks. Get off and grab the
clock, and then break the bricks. You have to fall down the left side to
reach the eleventh star, and you need to fall off the ladder to reach the
twelfth star hidden inside the right block you just broke. Head to the top of
the ladder and go left to reach your final star and the door key. Now, head
back down the ladder and go back to the left ladder either by going over the
invisible ground or just going over the blocks at the bottom. Take the ladder
up and head left to arrive back at your original location. Go left and jump
over the gap again but this time go up the left ladder. Grab onto the
climbable wall and go right, there's a hidden warp against the far wall which
will take you to the exit.

Pick up your first star right to your left, and continue left. There's going
to be some cannons over here so be ready to jump their shots, and get the
second star between two of them. The third star is right to the left of the
second one, after grabbing it you have two choices. You can double back to
the very first ladder, or you can go up the ladder to your left and crawl
under the next section until you reach water. It's the same distance either
way. Once you're there, attempt to jump over the water. It can be done if you
jump at the very edge of the water but odds are you're going to lose a heart
here. Head up the ladder and jump over for your fourth star, and then climb
up the next ladder and jump right for your fifth star. Take the warp door to
move to the left side of the stage and grab your sixth star, and fall off the
left side of the ledge for your seventh star.

Your eight star is right below the next ledge, grab it and fall down and then
crawl to the right to reach the ladder flanked by cannons. Climb to the gap
in the first two ladders and jump left and right to pick up one star on each
side. In the second gap, there's a free life to your right but you have to
have pixel perfect timing just like the water to reach it. If you don't get
it in a few attempts just go ahead and skip it and continue climbing the
ladder. At the top of the ladder, head left for your final star and the door
key, which you can reach by entering the warp door to the right of the ladder.

Head left for your first star, and then go up and jump over the blocks to
reach your second. Next head down the ladder and go left for your third star,
and then head down the ladder next to it for another two. Go up the top path
to your right, and break the middle brick in the five you come across for
your sixth star. Keep going right for your seventh star and head down the
ladder for your eighth. Go left, jumping as you go to attempt to avoid the
multiple spikes down here, and break the single block to grab your ninth
star. Head back to the right and go up the ladder, and then up the ladder to
the left of it for a key and your tenth star.

You can get another star here by going left and up the ladder, after you do
head back to the right until you reach the twelfth star. Go down the ladder
and use your key to open it and fall down the left side to stay out of the
water and pick up your thirteenth star. Jump right into the warp, head up the
ladder and go right to the fire. Go down here for your fourteenth star, and
then take the warp door to reach your final two stars and the door key. Go
right and head up the ladder, and then continue to the right. At the end of
the ice, jump over the fire and head right, the ladder will take you to the
exit. You can destroy the line of blocks to reach the single one, which
contains a free life, if you want to.

Start by breaking the very first block to your right to pick up your first
star. From here, head right and start falling down until you reach a block.
There's a set of blocks to your left, the sixth block on the top row and the
first in the second row containing stars. The first in the top row also
contains a heart. Go back to the right and break the lone brick, and fall
down to reach a clock. The single block down here contains your fourth star,
walk into the left wall to be transported back to the top of the stage. Head
left from here, and don't break any of the blocks except the one closest to
the left wall, to get your fifth star. Fall down and move right, probably
taking some damage, and break the two right most blocks here to grab a heart
and your sixth star. Head back left, probably taking some more spike damage
along the way, and break down into the room with another clock.

Walk to the left to warp down into the bottom right corner. The bottom brick
here contains your seventh star, grab it and head into the warp. Head to the
right all the way again and fall until you reach the lone block, and then head
left. Break down here for your eighth star and head left into a warp, and
grab your ninth star by breaking through to the bottom brick again. You can
also grab a potion in the second row of blocks. Head into the warp and go
right, and break the first set of blocks you come across to fall down. To the
right is some climbable wall and a hidden warp, take it to reach your tenth
star. The first block on the first row and the last block of the second row
contain your final two stars and the door key, grab them and take the warp
door back to the start. Head right and break the bricks again, and this time
take the climbable wall to your left and reach another hidden warp to reach
the exit door and a free life.

Start by going up the ladder to your left, there's a few cannons on the way
up that will try and shoot you. In addition to your first star, there's a
heart that you're almost assuredly going to need so make sure you pick it up.
At the top, there's another star next to the cannon, grab it and start going
right. Your third star is against the wall, pick it up and start smashing
blocks. Fall down to pick up the X key, and go right to reach some climbable
wall. Climb up it and jump over towards the fourth star as there's a single
gap in it that will drop you in the fire, which is bad for what you're going
to seeing in a minute. Go to the left side and climb up the wall for your
fifth star, there's no space so you can walk right over to it. Break through
the blocks and fall down. Now, you need to jump in the water, either side
will do, and crawl under the space you're currently standing on. Your sixth
star is in here, you'll probably take four hearts of damage getting to it so
if you don't have that much use the heart before you go in.

After, take the warp door and start moving back down the ladder, the cannons
are a little harder to avoid than they were on the way up. Once you're at the
bottom, use your key on the pulley and head in, jumping the witch when you
reach her. There's another heart in here as well as six total stars, bringing
you up to twelve. Grab them and head back to the pulley, and start breaking
the blocks to the left. Take the clock and crawl to the right, getting your
thirteenth star right after. Keep going right until you reach your fourteenth
star, and then head back and take the ladder down. Head left for a star and a
key, and then go up the ladder for your sixteenth star. Don't take the warp
door but head back and go right beyond the ladder. Crawl across and use your
key on the pulley to reach your final star, the door key and the door.

Hey, a boss! For starters, don't break any of the bricks you're standing on
looking for stars, none are in any of them. Also, this guy is the only thing
in the game that takes two hearts away in one hit, so beware of that. To win,
you need to kill this guy by completely trapping him inside regenerating
blocks. This is actually pretty easy to accomplish. First, lure him to one
side of the stage. I used the left, it shouldn't matter though. Once he's as
close as you can get him without taking damage, go up the ladder and reach
the top, making sure to figure out what blocks you need to break from the top
to drop down onto the ledge above where you just lured him. Make your way to
said ledge. He should come up after you, jump over to the opposite side
you've been on and start breaking bricks.

Starting from the top row, you need to break the top four bricks closest to
the center platform or furthest from the ladder. Drop down and break the
three bricks closest to the center platform in the second row, and you'll
probably get hit by the boss here. You should have enough room to break the
three bricks closest to the center on the third row now, and when you do
there should be one single brick on the bottom row sticking out farther than
the top two rows. Stand there and make sure the boss comes down towards you,
possibly hitting you a second time. Once he's at ground level, jump up
towards the ladder and stand at the bottom of it. The boss should just sit
there now, and once he's completely encased in bricks he'll kick the bucket.
When he does, the nine bricks you trapped him in will turn to stars and
you'll get your door key.

~~~~~~~~~~~~
 The Ending
~~~~~~~~~~~~

Peter will walk out of a warp door and start climbing up a ladder, sprouting
an exclamation point when he reaches the top. He'll start walking to the left
and the screen will shift to a single room. Peter will fall down and the
enemies will all come out for a second before Peter sucks them back up.
You'll then get a still image of Peter standing in front of the Stay Puft
Marshmallow Man with END written in the corner.
