Started this one out of boredom, and to let everybody know that I'm
still writing frequently. Since no one had wrote for this game, I
figured that I might as well step up to the plate and take a swing at
it.

Hey guys and gals! It looks like ol' Zoopster is back to write another
FAQ/Walkthrough once again, but this time it is more based on the fact
that such a great game like Tail 'Gator doesn't even have a friggin'
walkthrough for it! What a crime! Tail 'Gator was one of the Game Boy's
brightest titles, and one that Capcom fans could truly enjoy just as
much as those Konami freaks down the corner. Natsume created one of the
best gaming experiences available at the time that could please anyone
that enjoyed a side-scroller, and it is still a classic to this day.

There is only so much that you can write about in regards to this game,
so here is the list of where to find everything: if you're saving money
by switching to Geico, you're here in the Introduction. You can find out
how to e-mail me at the Contact Me section. The controls and a couple of
game basics are found in the Controls/Game Basics section (what a
shock!), while the step-by-step details on how to complete the game can
be found in the Walkthrough section. The Enemies List will contain all
of the enemies in the game, with brief descriptions of them, and the
Credits carry all of my Thank Yous. You can find all of the passwords in
the Passwords section. Wrapping things up is the Disclaimer, which will
tell you not to steal my guide.

No more beating around the bush, as we've got a game to play!

If you need me for anything whatsoever that IS NOT covered in the guide,
and that means SEARCHING THE GUIDE by pressing Control and F together
and typing out what you are looking for, and then hitting enter. But as
long as it has to do with the game. Sorry, but I don't feel like hearing
about how cute your kitten is if I don't really know you, yanno?
Actually, kittens are cute... Ahem. You can contact me via e-mail, or
sometimes IM. I check my e-mail several times a day; so don't hesitate
if you have a question! But please read the long paragraph below my

Please only e-mail me if it's something you do NOT see in the guide. Try
to look for it; if it's not there, feel free to e-mail me.

If you don't know how to e-mail me, just simply bring up a new,
unwritten mail (this varies with different services. It should say
"Write Mail" on the button, though) and write out my e-mail address. For
the subject, copy and paste this: Tail 'Gator FAQ. In the body of the
mail, write whatever you like, even hate mail! Just one request: Only e-
mail in English. Any foreign language e-mails will be discarded. Sorry,
I'm not smart enough to know a second language. I don't care what you
send, but positive feedback is always nice. But if you're into the hate
mail thing, I can dig that, too.

In Tail 'Gator, there are several parts to each stage, which are simply
called "Areas." You can choose to defeat each section of an Area in any
order that you wish, but for reference sake, you can easily follow my
walkthrough as it tells you which section to go to. Sit back, relax, and
enjoy.

\ AREA 1 /
/ TOP SECTION \
/ \
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Starting out, jump up to the very top section, and enter through the
small hole in the wall. You will wind up in an area with plenty of
clouds that Gator can slip through, so watch your step. Immediate take
out the Knight with a few tail swipes, and drop down to the cloud below
for a couple hits on the second Knight. A Bird will swoop into action
from the right; so quickly hit it to knock it away. Bash the treasure
chest to find a B Icon, and take out the upcoming Knight on the ground
level for some extra protection.

Coming up, you will find a few more Knights as the ones behind you
respawn. Collect the P Icon in the treasure chest near the top, and grab
the Key from inside of the treasure chest on the far right. Quickly take
out all of the Knights that lurk amongst the clouds above as you make
your way to the newly-opened exit near the upper right-hand corner of
the screen.

In the second room, you will notice a waterfall-like substance to the
right. Burst the treasure chest, kill the closest Knight, and grab the P
Icon. Drop down to kill off the Knight and Bird that roam in through
here, and grab the second P Icon inside of the treasure chest on the
ground. Hit the waterfall-like substance to find out that it is really
gusting wind, and break open the treasure chest as you land to reveal
the Key to exit. Stand off to the right, a break the Knight's skull open
as you climb to the exit.

Immediately drop down and break open the treasure chest to the left.
Grab the Bomb to watch all of the enemies get blown up instantly, and
head to the right. Drop down and head left to find a B Icon, as well as
a few others to the right. Kill the Knights as they spawn, and take the
Key from the treasure chest near the top. Exit the room after you have
the Key securely in your possession.

In the next room, quickly take out the two treasure chests to find a B
Icon, as well as a P Icon. Take out the Knight near the bottom, and the
two Birds. Notice the disappearing blocks in the area to the right, and
ignore them. Instead, kill the Knight and break the treasure chest to
find a Heart, and climb over to the left to find a Key to exit. Kill the
final Bird, and hop over to the exit to clear the stage.

\ AREA 1 /
/ HIGH CENTERED SECTION \
/ \
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Collect the couple of Hearts that are laying out, and go through the
highest section available now that the top section has been sealed off.
Upon entering, quickly jump up as the Knights cross one another, and
take them both out. Drop down a couple of platforms to break open the
treasure chest on the left, which contains a Bomb to knock away all of
the evil doers, including that Mouse that is coming after you. With the
enemies cleared, head right and collect a second Bomb in the lower
treasure chest. Now, hop up and break the high treasure chest to collect
your Key, and walk through to the next area.

Drop down and go to the platform with the treasure chest sitting on it.
Bust it to find a P Icon, and beat up the Knight to the right. Quickly
head further right, and bust the treasure chest to collect the Bomb
before the Mouse reaches you. This will destroy all of the enemies on
the screen. Jump up onto the pole to the right, and break the chest to
the left that contains a Key. Jump to the platform on the left, and over
to the right to reach the exit. Go through the doorway.

Drop a few platforms, and descend to the next platform once the Knight
heads left, and turn around to destroy him before he touches you. Hit
that treasure chest on the left to find a P Icon. This will fill up your
meter in the upper right-hand corner of the screen. Destroy the Knight
to the right, and break the chest down here, as well, to reveal another
P Icon, along with a third up above in the treasure chest. The P Meter
will allow you to launch unlimited projectiles with every attack.
Lovely. Keep heading right, knocking every enemy that you can find into
the dirt, and collect the Key to get to the exit.

You can destroy the treasure chest that is high above and to the right,
if you wish, or you can wait until a later time. Another P Icon rests
inside of it, so the choice is yours, but grab it before we depart.
Break the crate in the center to find a Bomb to clear the room, and head
left for another P Icon in a chest. The Key is on the bottom right-hand
corner, inside of a treasure chest. Hop up the clouds to reach the exit.

\ AREA 1 /
/ LOW CENTERED SECTION \
/ \
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Go through the level above the watered area down below after you collect
your two Hearts, and you will enter a rocky area with a couple of
Rattlesnakes that are patrolling throughout. You should have a little P
Power left, so take out the top one, as well as the Mole that comes
charging at you, much like the Mice from the previous section of the
area. Go through the bottom and bust several treasure chests to find
some P Icons, and go through the upper portion while fighting off the
Rattlesnakes and the Moles to find the final treasure chest containing
the Key to get into the next room.

Once you arrive in the next room, bash the high treasure chest from the
other side of the rocks, and collect the P Icon. Drop down and bash open
the next treasure chest, revealing a P Icon and some solace. Hide from
the Moles, and bash the coupling, along with the annoying Rattlesnake.
Go through the lower path, and take out the treasure chest down here.
Take out the treasure chest on the far right to collect a B Icon, and
jump off to the left to deal a few swipes to the treasure chest
containing the Key. Take out the Mole, if it respawns, and exit through
the doorway.

Jump onto the disappearing block below, and over to the next platform.
Deal some pain to the Rattlesnake here, and bash the treasure chest open
to reveal a Bomb to destroy all of the enemies within range. Jump up and
dish out some tail to the next treasure chest to find a P Icon.
Backtrack to the bottom, near the volcano, and kill the Rattlesnake,
then crack the treasure chest on the right. Climb back up via the
disappearing blocks, and head towards the east further. On the floor is
a treasure chest containing the Key, but a Rattlesnake guards it. Take
care of it, and take the Key. Hop onto the small rock on the left for
leverage, and jump over to kill the second Rattlesnake before heading
for the exit.

Now, it's time for a boss fight with a Giant Frog. Collect the giant P
Icon, and begin unleashing your wraith on the Giant Frog. He will line
three tiny rocks up, and launch from at you from bottom to top. Jump
over the first two while launching your projectiles at him. He will jump
clean over your head, and to the opposite side of the room. Watch out
for his quick tackle, as it may hit you. Continue to bash away at the
menace. By the second time that he jumps to the left, he should be
destroyed. Take the Key, and jump over the rocks to the right.

\ AREA 1 /
/ BOTTOM SECTION \
/ \
----------------------------------------------------------------------

With only one more section to go in the stage, collect your two Hearts,
and head for the lowest section available. Ahhh, an underwater stage! In
the first room, you will be able to swim by using the directional pad up
and down. Take out the Piranha that zig-zags through the water, and bust
up the treasure chests to find some P Icons, and then the Key. Go
through the doorway after you have your equipment.

Swim down, and take out the Piranha and the Rattlesnake near the middle
platform, and then quickly destroy the two treasure chests that are on
this platform, collecting the P Icons along the way. Drop down to
another platform, and take out all of the Rattlesnakes that clutter the
area down here. Proceed to bust open all of the treasure chests to find
goodies, as well as the Key. Dart for the exit, which is, as always, to
the far right.

In this next room, you will notice some moderately fast Seahorses. Do
not be intimidated, as they will go down in one hit. Eliminate them all,
and burst the three nearest treasure chests to find some Bombs and a P
Icon. The Bombs will clear the way for you to collect the Key in the
fifth treasure chest, and go through the exit doorway on the right.

As you enter the fourth area, destroy the first treasure chest to find a
B Icon, and quickly destroy the abundance of Seahorses and Piranhas. You
can also watch for the Jellyfish that rise from the sea floor. Two hits
will do it in. Swim to the bottom and bust the Rattlesnake that is
guarding the B Icon inside of the treasure chest. Head over to the right
before the enemies respawn, and collect the P Icon inside of the
treasure chest here. This should fill your P Meter. Take the B Icon from
the highest treasure chest, and drop down to the left to kill the
Rattlesnake and take the P Icon inside of the chest. On the other side
is the Key inside of the treasure chest, so take it and exit whilst
defeating the enemies that surround it.

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

As usual compared to before, start out on the highest level available.
After entering, head straight and break the first treasure chest, and
head down a few clouds and to the left to find the second treasure
chest. This one contains a Bomb, so watch as it blows away the
competition. The treasure chest across from it contains another Bomb to
bash those Knights and Birds clean off of the screen. Now, head down and
break the treasure chest here to find a B Icon. Head left and crack two
treasure chests before reaching the third, which contains the Key.
Careful jumping is in order to avoid the annoying Seagull in the area.

In the next room, jump repeatedly while slashing your tail at the
treasure chest up above, and collect the P Icon after you bust it open.
Drop down to the left, and destroy the Knight as he charges towards you,
then break the treasure chest that is farthest left. Pop up through the
clouds on the right, and dish out some pain on the Mouse before popping
the treasure chest to reveal a P Icon. Get in the gust of wind, and jump
off to the left several times, bashing the treasure chest until it
breaks. Kill the Seagull and the Bird, and hop off of the gust of wind
and over to the right to bash the treasure chest here. Use the Bomb, and
grab the Key out of the final treasure chest before exiting this room.

As you arrive in the next area, drop all the way to the bottom on the
left and break the treasure chest to reveal a P Icon. Head right, and
pop that middle treasure chest whilst defeating the Birds in the area.
Hop towards the top, and attack the chest from the right side, as it's
impossible to from the left. Go right and break the treasure chest near
the top, and fend off the Mice along the way. Take the Heart in the
center, and go right to destroy another treasure chest containing a
Bomb. Blow everything up, and take the Key inside of the treasure chest
in the corner, then exit.

At the start of this room, sink through the cloud below, and kill the
Bird and the Seagull along the way. Break the treasure chest down here,
and smash the one on the ground before jumping up to attack the left of
the two paired together through the vine wall. Afterwards, jump up and
smash the chest that rests up here, and go through to the other side to
do damage to the right treasure chest. Kill a few Birds, if need be.
Jump over to the left to destroy the treasure chest that is high above,
and go back to the right to take out the one near the center by heading
right and dropping down. Watch out for the Ghost Girl, as you do not
want to get trapped. Backtrack, and collect the Key. Go through the
doorway to clear the room.

Take those two Hearts that you will likely need, and go through the
doorway that is directly below the one that you completed last. As you
enter, you will notice that the platforms are in stacks. Take out the
Raccoon, who enjoys hopping, with two hits of the tail, and then take
out the treasure chest that is to the left to reveal a Bomb to eliminate
every threat in the immediate area. Proceed to burst every treasure
chest above this one, as well as the hidden treasure chest containing a
Heart that is in the middle of the stage. Head right, and take out a
Mouse along the way. Break the three stacked treasure chests to find a P
Icon, a Heart, and the Key.

Upon exiting, you will fall onto a cloud. Drop down, and take out any
enemies in your view, including the easily defeatable Sharks that charge
at you in the water. Take out the Knight, and hit the chest for a P
Icon. Climb back up, taking out the majority of enemies that get in your
way, and pop the two closest treasure chests that are up high. When near
the center, sink down and take out the treasure chest resting at the
bottom of the pond. The final treasure chest is on the far right, at the
bottom, unguarded. Take the Key, and run in defense.

As you reach the next room, drop into the water, and bat the Swan away,
along with the Shark. Take out the treasure chest on the left, and climb
up the small platforms, eliminating each Treasure Chest before the
Raccoon has a chance to reach you. Jump into the water again, but head
right this time around. Watch out for the pellets from the Sunflower,
and take it out with your tail from beyond the wall. Just below it is
another treasure chest, so it's for the taking. On the far right side is
a mirror replica of the treasure chests that were on the left, so break
and collect as fast as possible, and dart for that exit.

Collect your couple of Hearts, and go through the highest doorway
possible. You will end up in another cavern with Moles and Rattlesnakes
to bother you further. Along the ground, attack the Rattlesnake, and
take out the treasure chest. To the slight left is one suspended that
you must climb platforms to reach. Destroy it, and take care of two
Moles before hitting the one on the far left wall. Take it out, and
glide over towards the right a bit further, taking out the treasure
chest that is along the top of the ceiling. Hit the chest to the right,
near the exit, and the one "underground" afterwards to find your Key.
There's a possibility that you'll get lucky and snag a Bomb in the
process. Go through the doorway to go into the second room.

Defeat the Rattlesnake, and run along the platforms above. Knock away at
the two closest treasure chests, and note the hidden chest above the
second closest one. Go left, and you will find a Seal that wants to
play, so kick the crap out of it. One hit will do! Kill the Seahorse,
and break the treasure chest back here. Go back out, and go down. To the
left are two more treasure chests, so pick through them, and head along
to your right. Defeat any enemies that may respawn, and break the final
treasure chest on the right. Collect the Key, and climb the ridged
platforms to reach the doorway.

Once on the other side, jump over and defeat the Rattlesnake. If you
jump too high when attacking the treasure chest on this platform, a
spike will hit you. Try to adjust yourself to where your head is hitting
the top of the cavern into of the spikes overhead. Head left, and
destroy the two nearest treasure chests, and take out the Jellyfish
along the way. Break the two treasure chests on the left, and collect
the Heart without hitting the spikes. This is fairly simple, considering
the fact that you're swimming. Carefully jump off of the ledge to the
left to reach the treasure chest containing the Key, and don't forget
the hidden treasure chest in the waterfall. Now exit this area.

In the fourth room, you will drop down, so pop the chest open, and kill
the Rattlesnake. There will be Bats that launch rocks at you towards the
right, so watch out. Kill them whenever you get the chance, and drop
into the water to deal with the Seals that float about. Take out the
treasure chest down here, and destroy the Jellyfish at the end. Float up
to the top, and blow the treasure chest away up here. Carry on, and
clear out the rest of the treasure chests that lie up here before
heading down a waterfall to defeat the Bats and take the goods inside of
the treasure chests. Head through the doorway after you're through with
this room.

Grab your two Hearts, and head through the lowest door possible. By now,
it should be the only door possible. Deal pain to the Rattlesnake, and
watch your back for a stray enemy. Take out the treasure chest directly
in front of you, and get that treasure chest that is high above and to
the left. Take out any one-hit-death enemies as you destroy the treasure
chests along the zig-zag path on the way up. The final treasure chest is
in the lower right-hand corner of the room. Collect the Key, and go
through.

In this room, you must watch out, as spikes corrupt the flooring of the
place. You must kill the Jellyfish one by one as you go along, and crack
the treasure chests through the seaweed walls. You will likely have to
ditch a few Icons that come out of the treasure chests, if you're bad at
retrieving the items amongst the spiked flooring. Just be sure to hit
the very last treasure chest exactly that: last. That way you can easily
grab the Key without it sinking to the bottom of the pit. Go through the
doorway.

In the third area, go straight and take out the Piranha that swims your
way, as well as the treasure chest that is directly in front of you.
Swim down and to the left, bashing any one-hit-death enemies along the
way, and crack the three chests in a row. Hopefully, a Bomb will be
amongst them. After all is clear, head down and left to break the
treasure chest over here, and the second one down here before heading
back up to travel over to the right. There will be two treasure chests
along the middle path, so break them and head under the cove to find the
final one. Take each swipe individually, so you do not hit the spikes on
the bottom, and collect the Key. There's a secret treasure chest near
the final platform to the door in this room. Now, go through the
doorway.

Ahh, another boss battle! This time, it's against a Giant Goldfish.
First and foremost, collect your giant P Icon to get prepared for the
fight. He will spit out a bubble that will split into three rock objects
within a few seconds, so get underneath the bubble, or over it, all
while shooting him with your projectiles. You can easily defeat the
Giant Goldfish before it can move to the other side of the screen by
simply wailing into it with your projectiles, over and over again. Thank
goodness for a pattern.

As you start off, jump up to the very top and enter the doorway, and
take out all of the immediate enemies along the top. Break open every
single one of the treasure chests along the top, and drop down below to
expand the playing area. Now, it's time to knock those middle chests
out, so patrol the center and take each one of them out. Remember to
grab the goodies before they fall, as they're nearly impossible to reach
after they're on a cloud's surface. Take out those Seagulls and Ghost
Girls as you carry on towards the bottom. There's a hidden chest
underneath the chest with the gap below it near the bottom.

Take both out, and pop the one beyond the vine wall to the right. Get
rid of the treasure chest to the far left, and head towards the right
after popping up from the lower point to break open the chest with the
Key inside. Manipulate the wind gusts by moving to the far left, and
reaching the higher platforms. Watch out for the Knights and the flying
enemies along the way to the exit, but watch out for falling through the
clouds along the way.

In the second large area, a Sunflower will be to your immediate right as
you begin to fall through the closed area. Hit the treasure chest once
as you descend, and climb the disappearing platform to reach the cloud
on the right. Jump and attack the treasure chest in mid-air to the
right. From here, take out the Bird and the Seagull, and jump to the
left at the right time. Pop the treasure chest while standing on the
disappearing block, followed by jumping over to the right while
attacking to find a hidden chest. Hop back on the cloud, and jump to the
far left. Climb up, and take out the treasure chest.

Up higher is a second one that you can reach from the disappearing
block. Jump right afterwards, and fall down a ways to reach the next
treasure chest. Jump over to the right once again to find another chest.
Now, backtrack towards the top, and kill the Birds as you make your way
towards the right. Break the two treasure chests near the door while
ignoring the one near the Sunflower, and backtrack to that very one to
collect the Key. Go through the door afterwards.

Move forward and drop down after you've taken out the Seagull and the
Bird, and turn around quickly to remove the chest. Hop up the clouds,
and kill the Raccoon. Drop back down one level and head into the small
enclave to take out the chest through the vines, and head left to reach
the next treasure chest. There are four stacked treasure chests in the
center of the room, which you can reach the higher ones by heading into
the wind gusts. Just make sure that all of the enemies are dead before
doing this. Head right and take out the lower treasure chest, and head
on ground level to grab the Heart. Clear the enemies, and take the Key
in the treasure chest above this one to clear the room. To reach the
exit, jump in the gust and ride it to the clouds.

Uh oh, it's boss time! Giant Bird is the next boss on our list, and this
one is an annoyance compared to that last one, mostly due to the fact
that our health will likely be low. Start out by grabbing the giant P
Icon. The first attack that the Giant Bird will use will be a simple
rock-spitting routine that can be dodged by standing on the highest
clouds, so as the rocks line up in the back of the Giant Bird, while
it's invincible, climb to the top.

Begin wailing into the Giant Bird with these attacks, and drop down a
cloud as the Giant Bird slowly moves towards the bottom of the screen,
and back towards the top as the Giant Bird makes it's way up. It's
easiest to stay near the middle for most, however, and simply jump over
the rocks that get spit out. Just keep your distance, that way you can
anticipate the attacks. The Giant Bird will swoop near the center of the
room after it makes its way up and down. Immediately after this attack,
get ready for a sonic wave in the center of the screen. The key to
winning this battle is to keep your distance, and close in when striking
only. Head for the exit afterwards.

Collect the couple of much needed Hearts, and go through the highest
doorway available. Now, drop down and take out the treasure chest on the
left, and drop further to destroy the second and third treasure chest
that you find immediately at the start of the room. Jump up and take out
the Seagull, the Bird, and the treasure chest through the wall. Climb to
the top and break the treasure chest, and fall down to the right to find
another by your left side. Take out the chest to the right, beyond the
wall, and kill the Sunflower below you before tackling the treasure
chest down here. There's another below it. The rest are in plan sight to
the far right with no kinks to figure out. Backtrack to the top, knock
the chest here, grab your Key, and go through the doorway.

At the start of the second room, sink through the clouds and take out
the treasure chest to the right. Now, head far right and take out the
chest that is opposite of the one that you just destroyed. Sink into the
clouds, and take out the treasure chest that would've been in-between
the ones that you just destroyed. Sink another level, and take out both
treasure chests on the sides. Yet another level we go, so destroy the
treasure chest in the center of the room. Now, hop up and go right.

Jump into the "pit" that is walled-in, and destroy the two treasure
chests through the walls. Sink through to the water, and break through
the chest that's on the left. Destroy the one in the center on the
seafloor after you go through the next treasure chest to the left. You
can find a way to reach it on the left. Now, pop back up through the
platforms in the center, and go left this time to break the two treasure
chests. Sink through the cloud, grab your Key, and run towards the exit,
killing any enemy that gets in your way.

Wait for the disappearing block to appear, and jump attack the treasure
chest on the right. Do the same to the one on the left that is below
you. Take out the Mouse, and drop down to destroy the treasure chest on
the left. Drop a few platforms, and take out the treasure chest in the
center. Drop a few more platforms, and take out the treasure chest on
the left after destroying the Swan. Head right, underwater, and take out
the Shark as you reach the treasure chest on the right that is
underwater.

Hop out of the water, and destroy all three of the treasure chests that
remain in the area. Head up, towards the center of the stacked
platforms, and dish out some pain to the treasure chest here. Take care
of the Sunflower, and jump up to bash the treasure chest in the center.
Hop over to the tiny cloud on the right and destroy the treasure chest
through the wall. Drop down, and head right, up the clouds, and pound
the final treasure chest before entering the boss chamber.

Yep, another boss, and this one is rowdy. Grab the Giant P Icon, and get
ready to battle with the Giant Beaver. Ho ho! Insert a sexual innuendo
THERE, Bill O'Reilly. The Giant Beaver will chase you, and spit out
three sets of four spikes. You should have a few Hearts left, so this
fight shouldn't be too harsh. Bash the Giant Beaver with your
projectiles, and position yourself to where the spikes will land next to
you rather than on top of you. To dodge the Giant Beaver itself, just
jump to a cloud and back down to the left very quickly. This battle will
be over before it really even begins. Grab your Key, and exit.

As always, collect your two Hearts, and go through the highest doorway
available. We are back in the cavern area, so take out the treasure
chest through the rocks as soon as you enter. Jump up and take out the
treasure chest at the end of the line, followed by a second inside on a
depression in the wall. Drop down, and kill the Rattlesnake that lies on
this platform. Keep traveling to the left, and drop down again after
timing the Bat's movements. Fall into the water, kill the Rattlesnake,
and take care of the treasure chest on the right.

Be prepared to battle a Mole afterwards. Sneak up and take out the two
Bats as you bash the treasure chests along the way. With a mere two
chests left, take out the bottom one through the rocks, and drop down to
fight the mean ol' Rattlesnake down here before deciding to jump up the
tiny rocks. To do this, jump and swerve to the outer right edge, and up
to the next rock. Just watch out for the volcano along the way. Take out
the treasure chest at the top, take the Key, and exit the area.

In the second room, drop down a level and take out the Bird and the
treasure chest. Jump over the rocks coming from the Bat, and defeat him
as he pops up. Take out the chest to the right of where the Bat was, and
take out the final treasure chest on this line, on the far right. Now,
sink into the sand/water/whatever it is, and head right to drop down
below. Make small jumps across the tiny rocks to avoid hitting your head
on the spikes that are aligned amongst the ceiling of the platform
above.

Destroy the three treasure chests amongst these tiny rocks, and drop
another level. Take out the Bat down here, along with any Rattlesnake
that gets in your way. Destroy the treasure chest on the far right, and
walk to the far left to jump on top of the volcano. Quickly jump up the
platforms until you reach the top. Carefully jump over the small wall
that blocks you here, and destroy the treasure chest that you see first.
Jump over the spikes, and take out the Seals that you find along the
way. Destroy the final treasure chest, and take the Key. Sink through to
the bottom floor, and backtrack up along the left. Jump early to reach
each disappearing platform until you reach the exit.

Drop as far down as possible, and take out the Seal in the water,
followed by the Seahorse that lurks below. Take out the Treasure Chest
here, and watch out for the volcano as you go right to nab the Heart.
Exit the enclave, and take out the Mole that lurks down here. Take out
the treasure chest in mid-air, and believe it or not, you can jump over
the spiked gap by mashing the button down and going for it. There's a
hidden treasure chest on the end of the right. Take out the Mole as it
comes from above, and climb the disappearing platforms.

To the left is a treasure chest that can be broken with your tail. Do
so, and continue to ascend the disappearing platforms. Quickly take out
the treasure chest on the left before your flooring disappears, and
repeat the steps with the treasure chest on the left. Jump over the next
treasure chest on the left, and wait until the bottom disappearing block
appears until you land to destroy said treasure chest. Jump back over to
right, and drop down to destroy the treasure chest down here.
Afterwards, backtrack back towards the top.

Just up the disappearing blocks, and take out the two nearest treasure
chests from left to right. Kill the Mole before carrying on towards the
right, and quickly destroy the treasure chest to reveal the exit Key,
and dodge the spit from the Bat that rests to the right. Destroy it
extremely fast, and dart for the exit.

In the next room, destroy the treasure chest quickly, and jump over the
spit of the jumping Bat as carefully as possible. Destroy the Bat
without falling down, and cross over the gap to find another chest to
the right. Destroy it, and drop down to quickly disassemble the lives of
a Mole and a Mouse before busting up the treasure chest next to you.
Head towards the left and bust both of the reachable treasure chests up,
and head back to the right to take out the treasure chest here along
with the hidden chest in the same region before going over the hump in
the platforms. Take out the treasure chest above the volcano from the
safe platform, and jump down. In the water, swish towards the left to
reach the last treasure chest containing the Key. Collect it, and
backtrack to the exit.

With only one more area to go, hit it after collecting your well-
deserved Hearts. Once inside, swim forward and dodge the Bat's spew, and
break the treasure chest. Swim up and to the left to find another
treasure chest, and back down slightly, curved off to the right for a
fast couple of treasures chests. With four chests down already,
backtrack to the beginning and sink down a bit while fending off the
Seahorses. Take out the two closest treasure chests near the bottom, and
kill the Bat for good measure.

Sink down slightly, and slip through the small path to reach a new area,
and bust up the first couple of treasure chests that you spot. Easy
chest stages rock! The rest of the treasure chests are in this exact
spot, and all are easily reachable, not to mention the fact that simple
Seahorses only guard them. Take the Key from the last treasure chest,
and backtrack through the tunnel. Go through the exit doorway to reach
the second room.

Once you arrive in the second room, drop slightly and take out the
treasure chest to the left. Take out the Piranha, and sink down. Destroy
the treasure chest near the bottom, and head left through the bottom
while taking out any enemies that get in your way. Dip down once again
and follow the path to the right near the bottom, destroying every
treasure chest that you come across. Head up, and through to the left,
killing a Jellyfish along the way. Once again, go down and destroy the
two treasure chests down here.

Backtrack to where you first descended amongst the depths of the ocean,
and head right this time. Now, kill the Jellyfish, and go up through the
first area to find a couple of treasure chests, and some well-placed
enemies. Backtrack and go through the second top opening to find one
more treasure chest. Now, hit the downlow and hit the chest, and notice
a second chest that is on the seafloor. Go through the area to the left,
and head down to find it, and the Key. Now creep to the exit.

Keep going forward in the new room, and take out the treasure chest
along the top, and go through the hole to the left to reach a new area
with plenty of easy to reach treasure chests. Three are to the left, and
go through the hole along the bottom of the area, killing enemies as you
carry on. Destroy all of the treasure chests that you find along the
way. Now, take out the two treasure chests along the right wall, and
backtrack to the left to reach the hole to access the final treasure
chest through the middle. Take the Key, and go through the exit doorway.

With only one section available for access, go through it. Fall onto the
top of the treasure chest, and whip your tail to the right to find a
hidden treasure chest. Take out the Bird as it comes towards you. Jump
up to the platform on the right and take out the treasure chest to the
left. Drop down and hit the Mage twice to send him flying before he uses
his wand to create a skull to hit you. Take out the two treasure chests
in the immediate area, and jump over to the right to destroy the
treasure chests over here before dropping to take out the persistent
Advanced Knight.

Jump up the platforms to reach the suspended treasure chest, and drop
down to take out the lone treasure chest on this platform. Drop off to
the right and clear all of the abundance of treasure chests down here,
along with clearing the "basement" screen of those pesky Ninjas that
jump all around as you try to navigate through. After you have the Key,
jump up the platforms on the right side of the screen to reach the exit
doorway.

As you drop from the doorway, use your tail to whip the treasure chests
along the way down. Quickly rush onto the third platform and destroy the
treasure chest at the end. Hang off the side and tail whip the treasure
chest over here before jumping into it. Kill off the Advanced Knight,
and jump off of the side, and turn left to hit the treasure chest. Fall
back into the cove that you were in, and repeat these steps with both
chests until they have been destroyed, and you're on the top right
platform.

Head over to the far upper-left platform, and take out the treasure
chest here. Head over to the right side of this left platform, and drop
off and onto the platform directly below it. Destroy the Advanced
Knight, and the treasure chest. Drop into the center of the water, and
destroy both bottom treasure chests, followed by the Ninjas that patrol
down here. You can take out the two upper chests by jumping onto the
rocks, and to the tabletop platforms that extend to the chests
themselves. Break the treasure chests, and grab the Key. Jump up to the
exit doorway, and go through.

Drop into the water, and destroy the two treasure chests immediately.
Take out the Mermaid with a couple of swigs of the tail, and carry on
through the underwater region. Destroy the treasure chests in order to
reach a platform to jump up from. Take out those Advanced Knights and
the Mages on this platform as you head left, taking out every treasure
chest that you come across. Destroy the top treasure chest through the
wall first, before you destroy the one on the bottom, that way you can
reach the Key easier. Head through the doorway after you've obtained it.

As we enter the next area, notice the Sunflowers below you. Jump down to
the list after they spit, and turn around to eliminate the treasure
chest here to provide a platform for you to stand on. From here, take
out the treasure chest to the upper right, which will hopefully have a
Bomb inside. Drop down to the ground and destroy the two treasure chests
here. Go right on the very bottom, and destroy the treasure chest in
front of you. Hop up and take out the last treasure chests and take the
Key. Climb up to the doorway, and walk in.

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

As you walk in, dart through the top section and eliminate a couple of
Birds as you hit the three treasure chests along the way. Drop off to
the right and hit the hidden treasure chest in the water, on the
platform. Now, kill the Ninja and take out the treasure chest here, as
well. Take out each treasure chest as you go along to the left, and
climb up on the small platform to destroy the treasure chest to the
left. Knock away the last remaining treasure chests on the left side,
and hop onto the disappearing block to go to the right side and fall in
to destroy the treasure chest here before exiting as you grab the Key.

Walk forward and fall down, but hook a sharp left to enter the area
here, and destroy the treasure chest lying here. Go up, and take out the
Advanced Knight. Jump across to the treasure chest in mid-air to destroy
it, and drop down to kill the Mage before taking out the treasure chest
on the left. Destroy the treasure chest here, and drop into the water to
the right.

Destroy the treasure chest on the left, and inside of the enclave to the
right. Head towards the west, and beat up the treasure chest in the
bottom left-hand corner. There's a disappearing block nearby to use for
leverage as you begin to collect the Key from one of the treasure chests
on the left, on dry surface. You can find your way back up by making
awkward jumps via disappearing platforms.

Hold a tight right, and fall into a hole that leads to a treasure chest
across a gap. Perform a jump that leads around the outside and hug left
to reach a higher platform with a treasure chest atop of it. Destroy the
chest, and drop back down. Go further left to find two treasure chests
to destroy, and pull off another outside jump to land on the platform to
the left. Jump into the small opening on the right, and jump off of the
edge of it, leading left. If done correctly, you will land on top of the
platform will ease, and with direct access to the rest of the treasure
chests up here.

Drop off to the left, and go all the way down. Destroy the Ninjas, the
Mage, and the Bird once you reach the bottom. Destroy the treasure chest
here, and head left. You can find two treasure chests on the left, and
two on the right. Once you have the Key, climb up to where the rock
ledges are to the right, and jump onto the platform on the left, but
watch out for that lousy Mage. Jump off here, and you will reach the
rock ledge. You must perform one last outside jump to reach the top
rock, and the boss entrance.

Yep, it's a boss fight! This time, you will face the mentor of the evil:
the Giant Dragon! Ooh, spooky! Starting out, grab your Giant P Icon
AFTER THE GIANT DRAGON HAS STOPPED FLASHING, and the lone Heart
container. The Giant Dragon isn't too hard, as he will launch out giant
fireballs that burst into debris. The debris is the key factor in the
battle, as it will do damage to you. Just remember to shoot your
projectiles at him constantly, stopping only to jump over the fireballs
or the debris that the fireballs produce. Try to stay in the center
platform, and remember, if the fireball is centered, you must jump
afterwards. If it's slightly tilted down, stay in place and keep firing.
The hardest part of the battle is noticing the fireballs, as sometimes
they get glitched out.

After the final blow to the dastardly Giant Dragon, you will have
completed this rigorous game! Congratulations! Now, can anybody tell me
why in the hell an alligator was fighting mermaids, mages, and knights
in the first place?

::: ::: ::: ::: SECTION IV. - ENEMIES LIST ::: ::: ::: :::
::---::---::---::---::---::---::---::---::---::---::---::---::---::---::

Here, you can find a list of the enemies in the game, listed from A to
Z. Enjoy.

ADVANCED KNIGHT
---------------
A ground patrol guard that lurks in Area 4. He cannot do much of
anything besides be stubborn with his armor, so send him for a loop with
a few tail whacks.

BAT
---
The Bats can become an annoyance as you progress throughout the game, as
they will quickly launch several rocks at you. You must be careful of
their placement in the room when battling them.

BIRD
----
The Birds will swoop down into action in an attempt to hit you. One
swipe of the tail will do them in.

GHOST GIRL
----------
The Ghost Girls appear in the second area of the game, and can be very
deadly in small corridors. Watch your back when dealing with these
demons.

JELLYFISH
---------
Along with the Seahorses, Jellyfish can be found as they rise from the
sea floor. They are very slow, and can easily be avoided. You can kill
them with two hits.

KNIGHT
------
The Knights resemble the Meta-Knights from the Kirby series, and have
basic short-ranged attacks. You can kill them with two hits.

MAGE
----
These guys are pesky, and appear in Area 4. They will use their wands to
create stones to throw at you.

MERMAID
-------
Much like all of the other fictitious characters in the game, the
Mermaid appears in Area 4, and can be killed with a couple of hits.
Think of an underwater Seagull, and you have the Mermaid.

MOLE
----
The Moles will come charging at you without much fail, so watch your
step. You can defeat them within two hits.

MOUSE
-----
The Mice in the game look extremely funny, and they are quite persistent
when it comes to chasing you around. Give them a couple of whacks to
make them leave you alone for once.

NINJA
-----
They are the fastest of the ground patrolling troops, and they are also
a pain in the rear end due to their pesky jumps.

PIRANHA
-------
The Piranhas will swim in a zig-zag fashion, but can easily be killed
with a single swipe of the tail.

RACCOON
-------
These Raccoons mean serious business! You can stomp their hoppiness out
by hitting them twice with your tail.

RATTLESNAKE
-----------
The Rattlesnakes patrol the ground in typical fashion, and only have
extremely short-ranged attacks. Defeat them with two swipes of your
gator tail.

SEAGULL
-------
The Seagulls, found in Area 2, are slow non-swoopers in comparison to
their Bird counterparts, and they're also a bit tougher to kill.

SEAHORSE
--------
The Seahorses are quite slow in speed, but persistent in comparison to
the Piranhas. A single hit will also eliminate them.

SEAL
----
These little fellas will swim along the stretches of the ocean, and can
be killed with one hit.

SHARK
-----
The Sharks can easily be stopped with a mere swig of the tail. They act
as Piranhas, for the most part.

SUNFLOWER
---------
The Sunflowers are tricky enemies, as they will shoot seeds at you. Be
very wary of your current placement on the screen when Sunflowers are in
the area.

SWAN
----
Yes, it's the deadly Swans of doom! These "creatures" lurk around the
surfaces of ponds, and they want you DEAD! One hit will kill them...
Hey, they're friggin' swans. Did you expect something terrifying? Just
watch out for their charges, as they can catch you off-guard.

First and foremost, a sincere thank you to Jeff "Ceejaycee" Veasey for
providing me with a motive to actually get up and start writing in the
first place. He's a great guy with a great website. Thanks to Stephen Ng
for appreciating my work, and for posting it even when I'm annoying and
submit through e-mail instead of the website function over at
faqs.ign.com. Thanks guys, you both rock my bedroom.

Thanks to Natsume for making such an awesome game. Seriously, if you
have a Game Boy, and you do not have this game, you deserve a kick right
where the sun don't shine. This is a classic side-scroller that deserves
some serious attention.

Thanks to my loving girlfriend, Valerie, for putting up with my constant
writing. I never stop, and she still supports me. What a great gal...
probably because I stop to watch soap operas with her. Woo for Days Of
Our Lives!

Thanks to my pals, Snow Dragon, Devin Morgan, Andrew Schultz, Brian
Sulpher, Kain Stryder, Colin Moriarty, Chad Steele, Tom Hayes,
Gobicamel, ZeroSHIFT/Masamune3, Reverend Vegita, Jennifer Langston, Jess
Hawkins, Melissa Norton, and everybody that reads my LiveJournal, which
can be found under the username "zoopsoul".

Thanks to Collective Soul for supplying me with a lovely soundtrack to
my guide writing.

And lastly, thanks to you, ya big freak. You actually read this thing
for an ancient game that practically nobody knows. You deserve a hug, so
go tell your parents that you're special.
