Finally, a game that is as perverted as me! ;) Not much of an

1) Story
--------

Once upon a time, in a land far, far away...Wait, not really. In the
Kingdom of Balls there are several large towers that were bult by an
ancient, intelligent civilization of balls. The old balls are gone, but
the towers remain. Iggy and his friends want to blow them away, for some
reason. The only problem is that they argue about who should do it. They
decide that they'll have a race to the top of each tower. Whoever wins
the race gets to push the large, red button at the top that will make
the tower go "Bye Bye." And then, we're off...

---------------------
2) GamePlay Mechanics
---------------------

I'm taking all of this stuff DIRECTLY from the training mode, so it's
accurate :)

___Start of quotes from game___

Let's begin training! You can jump using the button below (A). Try a
jump now...

Grappling is important: Use the button shown below to grapple now
(B)!...Great! Let's move on...

Push up and grapple at the same time to go up this platform!

You can drop through platforms! Push down and jump at the same time. OK,
come back up! What's over here?...

This platform is high up, you'll need to jump and grapple at the same
time! Give it a try...

Hang downwars from a platform. Use down and grapple together!...You've
got it! Now pull yourself back up and we'll continue.

Head left to the end of the next platform. Get ready to jump!...OK...

You'll need to take a running jump to get onto this next platform! Let's
move on...

The drop swing: This move can be tricky! You need to grapple hang...pull
down and grapple now! Swing left and right until uou fly up. Get ready
to grab the platform!...Well done!

This object here is a plunger! Jump on it to blast upward! Try it and
see!

Cool! Now use what you've learned to climb this tower.

This tower is a littler harder...keep climbing!

Great work, and now for something FUN! This archway marks the start of a
roll section. Walk through it and see what happens!

Here you'll learn about flapping. At the gap, jump and hold the jump
botton. Flap across the gap and get ready to grapple!...Well done, now
jump into the warp!

Now we'll look at slime! Slime slows you down. Walk through it and see!

The next part is icy! Ice is very slippery! See for yourself!

The track above you is amoured (My note: It's made of steel). You can't
grapple it! Try it and see what happens!

Going up...

You can't drop through armoured tracks! Try it and see!...Let's go look
at something NEW!

This section is quite long. It would be nice if could go much more
quickly along it...Well you can! Press the use powerup botton to
activate your rollburst!

The object to your left is a chance warp. You want to jump into it only
when theyt arrow points upwards. If you miss, just try again (My note:
Although you'll have to run back to it, it'll make you go back to a
previous section).

Almost done!

Here is another player. They are trying to beat you in the race to the
top! Here's how to stop them...

Attack 1 - Basic Slam
To slam a player, fire your grapple into them. Try it now!

Great, try it again!...Let's try another attack...

Attack 2 - Multi Slam
Fire your grapple into th enemy and wiggle the control stick left and
right. Try it on this player now! It takes practice!

Attack 3 - 360 Spin
Fire your grapple into the enemy, push up and begin a circular motion on
the control stick (My note: Actually, you only have to hold up). This
move is tricky, keep practicing!

A fun way to slow a player down is to jump on top of them! Try it and
see what happens! You sure showed them! You can use these tactics on
some enemies, too!

Defensive Tactics 1 - Dangle
Dangle to avoid enemies or projectiles. Press down and grapple now! Come
back up!

Defesnive Tactics 2 - Duck
Duck to avoid enemies or projectiles. Press down on the control
stick!...You've got it! Now you can avoid enemy attacks and projectiles!

..Head on over to the left.

Finally, here's another device. If you walk up to the arrows and wait,
Evan will pick you up!

OUTSTANDING!
You've completed your training!

__End of quotes__

The best attack is the 360 spin because it actually throws the player
OFF the track and it will take a while for him/her to get back (Evan is
kinda slow and will wait awhile).

The best defesnive move is the duck because it's so easy to pull off!

The default controls are the best to use, in my opinion, because it's
easy to do everything. Something that the training didn't teach you:
Press "R" and you will grapple and jump at the same time. Although I
still press jump (It's almost invuluntary, I've been playing games that
long), but it's useful when going up long stacks of platforms (Which is
almost all of the time).

The rollbooster is quite simple: Press "Z" and you can rocket forward
way beyond your top speed for several seconds. You can only do this as
long as your Turbo Meter has some colored nothces on it. Once it's
empty, it's EMPTY! You can only refill it by: Pressing jump over and
over again when in roll mode (boosters) and it gets refilled
automatically when you start a new lap.

Use your rollbooster when there's some balls/enemies in front of you,
they'll be knocked out!

A final tip, but only because it's so common: Stacks of platforms, but
the entire section is steel EXCEPT one little part (or only a few
sections) and you'll have to hurry to the other side. Use those boosts!
When you grapple and it's still in action, and when you get to the next
platform, you'll get an extra little boost. It's hard to explain, but if
you've played it you'll know what I mean.

--------
4) Items
--------

~Pick Ups~

You can get these by touching the star fish that are trapped in
bubbles...god, this game is strange/original! :)

3 Bombs: Set a bomb down and it will stay there until someone hits it.
When someone does, it'll blow them backwards and usually make them fall
down a few sections. Avoid at ALL counts.

Ice Bomb: This will make everyone be incased in ice, which will slow
them down considerably. If this is done to you, boost and it will break
the ice.

3 Blue Energy Balls: They'll circle around sections, occasionally
jumping around, until someone hits them. When someone IS hit, they're
knocked out for a few seconds.

Yellow Energy Ball: Tracks down the nearest player, never misses unless
the other person is in the middle of being transported by Evan or
warping to another section. When it hits they are shrinked and move
slower.

Red Energy Ball: This baby tracks down the nearest player, when it hits
that ball will go FLYING backwards. It really screws them up.

Reverse Controls: 'Nuff said. That person turns red and their screen
flashes red, too.

Star: Talk about blatantly copying something...guess what this does? It
makes you invincible!!! You go faster, plus you can grapple through
steel platforms. Very useful.

Let's Play Catch Up: You only get this when you're WAY behind, it makes
you fly to another section.

T: Refills your turbo meter.

~Terrain~

These are found on the tracks...

Plungers: In an impressive show, these will "bounce" you to another
section.

Warp: Same as Plungers, except it's just a few little sparkles and
"POOF!" There you are!

Roll Zones: Have you ever played a Sonic game? If you have, you
probabaly remeber those loop-da-loops that make you go really fast. Same
as that, except not all of them have loops, they speed you up...BIG
TIME. Press jump a lot and your Turbo meter will slowly fill up.

Zippers: Just normal platforms with arrows on them. You'll slowly build
up speed, so the longer the section the faster you'll go. When it ends
you'll still retain some momentum, but you'll slowly lose it.

Air Fans: You can't just hop on these, you'll have to take a running
jump and then stay in the same place. They make you go straight up.

Conveyor Belts: Do I really have to explain this? Didn't think so.

Wall Fans: They push you around, pain in the...

Goo: They only cover a few sections. They slow you down...A LOT! Hop
over it.

Ice: Slippery, almost like a Zipper.

Raising Platforms: Just like normal ones, except they go up and down.

Chance Warps: If you go in when the arrow points up, you'll go on. If
you get in when the arrow points down, you'll go backwards.

Steel Platforms: They can not be grappled (Unless you're invincible).

Spring: Makes you go super fast!

Some may be missing.

5) Courses
----------

There are 110 levels, split into 11 towers with 10 levels each. Each
level has it own unique landmarks and personality...imagine, all of this
on a 4MB cart! Talk about compression!! :)

For difficult I rate it in stars. 1 being simple and 5 being nearly
impossible.

=== Tower One: Easy Street ===

- Course 1: Grapple Up -
Two Laps
Difficulty: *

Layout: A track that leads to a plunger which then warps you to the
finishing line. Simple!

Suggested Turbos: All the time!

- Course 2: Mind the Gap -
Two Laps
Difficulty: *

Layout: A straightaway with a few hills and sections to come over, which
leads to a plunger. This goes to another section, a few grapples and
your at the black and white!

Suggested Turbos: All the time!

- Course 3: Loop da Loop -
Two Laps
Difficulty: *

Layout: A straightaway with a few sections, a warp that leads to a
boostzone, and then a spiral part. That's it.

Suggested Turbos: When you start out, that's twice. Save the last two
for the spiral section.

- Course 4: [email protected] -
2 Laps
Difficulty: *

Layout: A curving part which leads to a spiral, some of the parts are
amored. When I say an "amored spiral" that means that there is only a
few places to grapple. At the top is the end.

Suggested Turbos: When you start out, and in the amored spiral.

- Course 5: Jump up, up, up... -
2 Laps
Difficulty: * *

Layout: First there's a jump, so don't turbo. Then an amored spiral, it
twirls around, so I call it a "twirling amored spiral." A few sections
and then it's the end.

Suggested Turbos: At the beginning, but immediately jump to avoid the
gap. Then just whenever.

- Course 6: Follow the Path -
3 Laps
Difficulty: *

Layout: An amored spiral, then a zipper that zips you to a platform. Get
on the triwling section and then there's the finish line!

Suggested Turbos: At the start, to clear the spiral. Then right before
the zipper, you'll go FAST. That's all you need, really.

- Course 7: Movin' on up! -
3 Laps
Diffiulcty: * *

Layout: A twirling spiral, coupled with broken parts. At the top you'll
find a long path that leads to a dead-end, or does it? Part of the floor
will rise to another path, which leads to a twirling spiral. At the top
of that is a finish line. Make sure to make it to all of the floors in
time or the other guys will cream ya! :)

Suggested Turbos: Right away, to clear the the first spiral. Then RIGHT
away to make it to the rising floor...if it goes up before you make it,
wait on the other side so others don't come and grapple you. Also when
you make it to the upper section after the rising floor.

- Course 8: Ride the Roller -
3 Laps
Diffulty: * *

Layout: Welcome to the first level with items! First there is an amored
spiral, at the top are some warps that lead to a Loooong rollzone. Then
there's a small amored spiral, and a few platforms to finish it off.

Suggested Turbos: Right at the start, to clear the amored spiral.
Anywhere else if fine. Don't forget, you can refill it in the rollzone
by pressing jump quickly!

- Course 9: Tricky Grapplin' -
3 Laps
Difficulty: *

Layout: Some little platforms, some that twirl, must be overcome before
reaching another similar section. At the top is a rather short rollzone,
at the end waits the finish line. No biggie, right?

Suggested Turbos: Doesn't matter...I always use them to clear the
spirals.

- Final Course: Baby Enchilada -
1 Lap
Difficulty: * * *

Layout: A amored spiral leads to a a strangely set up zipper, which
bursts you into another amored spiral. At the top is a plunger. Here you
must go up the twirling amored spiral, with a few gaps, it can be
confusing. At the top is a chance warp...it goes to a rollzone, recharge
your turbos if you want, but at the end are a few platforms and then the
end.

Suggested Turbos: At the start, to get to the zipper. Use it in the
twirling spirals, and at the middle where there is only one side to go,
which is on the OPPOSITE end.

=== Tower 2: Downtown ===

- Course 1: I'm Saying "Eleven!" -
3 Laps
Difficulty: *

Layout: A large, normal spiral goes to a long path with an amored spiral
at the end. Then there's a zipper, but be sure to jump before you run
into the slime. Then it's another amored spiral. That's it!

Suggested Turbos: Use them sparingly in the spirals, before the zipper
to the goo, and the long path after the first spiral.

- Course 2: Tube Ride -
3 Laps
Difficulty: * *

Layout: A long path leads to a plunger, but it is fraught with puddles
of goo, so jump to avoid it! A long armored spiral is at the top, but be
careful of the all the items spinning everywhere by now. A long path
greets you at the top, at the end is an "Evan Caller." Hop on the
plunger he takes you to, and then rush forward and jump over the fan so
it propels you up. At the top is another plunger, Go up the twirling
spiral and it's over!

Suggested Turbos: Use two in the first spiral, and the one on the long
path to the "Evan Caller." The last one is up to you...

- Course 3: Nice Action -
3 Laps
Difficulty: * *

Layout: Run to the fan that's in front of you, it will cause you to go
up and land in a warp. Quickly run to the 2nd fan, it will transport you
up to a long and tedious spiral. A zipper will carry you to another
spiral, then a wall fan to another. Then there's another zipper that
puts you under the finish line.

Suggested Turbos: Use one to get to the 2nd fan. And to the long path to
the 2nd spiral. Then on the way to the 3rd...and finally on the last
zipper, since it's nice and long and will give you some room to reach
top TOP speed.

- Course 4: Cooky Jar -
3 Laps
Difficulty: * *

Layout: It's just a series of long, amored spirals until you get to the
end! Each one has a plunger at the top to transport you to the next one.
Some twirl, as well.

Suggested Turbos: After the warp at the start. Use them spraingly until
you get to the last amored spiral, it's long.

- Course 5: Wobbler -
3 Laps
Difficulty: *

Layout: You start out in a tall, armored spiral (What? Surprised?) with
only one place to grapple, so get there quick! At the top you must wait
for a platform to come down, and then hop into the warp that's on the
"secret" platform above, it's not hidden. Hit the spring and go flying!
Whoohoo! Then it's a BIG spiral, which leads to the end.

Suggested Turbos: Save them for the last spiral, it's big ya know. :)

- Course 6: Supper Happy Fun - (My note: An obvious poke at Yoshi's
Story!)
3 Laps
Difficulty: * *

Layout: You begin in an...amored...SPIRAL! Yes, you guessed correctly.
Then it's on to a zipper that puts you in a long path, at the end is a
plunger which puts you in the heart of ANOTHER amored spiral. At the end
is a zipper which bursts you into another spiral, then on to another
zipper. Grapple the ice, go to the other side, and that's one lap!

Suggested Turbos: Try them on long paths, zippers, and the last
platform. Use the last one in a spiral.

- Course 7: The Ring's the Thing -
3 Laps
Difficulty: *

Layout: Spirals, amored spirals, plungers, and yes, more armored
spirals. Nothing exciting here, folks. Move on, move on.

Suggested Turbos: In the spirals...

- Course 8: Clang Clang! -
2 Laps
Difficulty: * *

Layout: A VERY short rollbooster will send you into a plunger, at the
top an AMORED SPIRAL (!) will greet you...sheesh...! That's basically
the entire level, all spirals.

Suggested Turbos: In the spirals...again...

- Course 9: Maze of Torment -
2 Laps
Difficulty: * *

Layout: A long path leads to a giant maze of twirling platforms with
items and players all around. Get up to the main path, follow it until
you see an ice platform: This is the ONLY way out (That I know of, at
least), so get up there! Then there is a loooong path, full of gaps and
platforms to navigate before the final few twirling spirals...whew!

Suggested Turbos: Immediately, the path to the maze is the perfect place
to boost. From there on, try it on the long path. Just don't fall...

- Final Course: Orbital -
1 Lap
Difficulty: * * *

Layout: First there's a little race to one singly warp, which leads to a
rather short rollbooster. Then there's another warp, this sends you to a
rather large AND confusing twirling amored section, just a hint: Go to
the OPPOSITE side for the way up, ok? Ok. After that there is a long
path to a warp which leads to an "Evan Caller." He'll fly you to a
really short rollbooster. Use your momentum from it to keep going,
though, it *really* makes a difference. Go up the slick and difficult
ice platforms, to the final part of this already grueling level.    Here
you'll find fans, plungers, yellow blocks, and other oddities. Then
there's the familiar finish line...ah.

Suggested Turbos: Use two for each of the first two warps! You can
refill it in the rollboosters, even if they are kinda short.  Use the
last few in the last section, or in the loooong paths that take awhile
to go  through...duh.

=== Tower 3: Candy Lane ===

- Course 1: Critical Juncture -
2 Laps
Difficulty: *

Layout: A few zippers, an "Evan Caller", and some other things will lead
you through this easy course, plus a few...ahem...spirals...Near the
middle, you can either go up a spiral or through a zipper; use the
zipper, it will take you to a warp that drops you off near the end.

Suggested Turbos: On the long paths

- Course 2: Lebanese - (My note: Uh...hehe)
3 Laps
Difficulty: * * (5 *'s if you're not used to grappling)

Layout: A long stretch of platforms, straight up. Just tap R a lot and
you'll make it up in no time! At the top is a rather confusing ordeal of
twirling amored platforms. Just wait at the end of it, and the one
overhead will come to pick you up! Then there's another stretch of
platforms, a few more spirals, and that's IT!

Suggested Turbos: In the confusing spirals...

- Course 3: Roll 'em baby -
3 Laps
Difficulty: * *

Layout: Some spirals will lead to four different paths, take either one
you want! They all lead to the same place...sorta. At the end is a
plunger, which rockets you to a medium sized rollbooster. Eventually
you'll need to jump on a plunger, on a strange platform, to end this
course!

Suggested Turbos: In the looong path before the rollboosters, the place
after...everwhere! Whoo!

- Course 4: Steady Eddie -
3 Laps
Difficulty: * (Two *'s if you miss the shortcut)

Layout: At the start, fall through the platform to reach a secret
plunger! You get to skip a really big amored spiral that is a pain in
the...! Go up some platformes, a plunger, another amored spiral, and
then jump on the finish line! It's not short, but when it's written down
it sure is :)

Suggested Turbos: In the spirals, dum dum...

- Course 5: The Nest -
3 Laps
Difficulty: * * (Three *'s if you missed the shortcut)

Layout: When you start out, go left a little and drop down to find a
secret platform with a warp! It takes you way ahead, to a spring that
rockets you forward. Use the Bubble Machines to reach the plunger, it
takes you to the finish line...Can you say "Yay!"?

Suggested Turbos: When getting the secret warp, before the spring, and
anywhere else you want, you really don't have to use any turbos!

- Course 6: Curly Twirly -
2 Laps
Difficulty: * *

Layout: First there is a looooong rollbuster, then a long path after a
zipper. Another boring twirling amored spiral awaits! Then there's a
bybblemachine, more spirals: END OF LEVEL.

Suggested Turbos: At the start, after the zipper, and in the spirals.

- Course 7: Tricky Climbing Wall -
2 Laps
Difficulty: * * *

Layout: First there is a short rollboost, then a long path to some
platforms that go up, and a looong circling path that never seems to
end. After that, there is a REALLY big secion with little platforms,
take the upper path, it's faster. At the top is a fan that will lead you
to the exit. Not much, but it takes awhile.

Suggested Turbos: In the long sections at the beginning! That should
wear them all down.

- Course 8: High Roller -
3 Laps
Difficulty: * *

Layout: First there is a floor that goes up and down, it acts as an
elevator to above. Then there are some...armored spirals...and
rollboosters, bubblemachines, another spiral, and then THE end.

Suggested Turbos: Whenever

- Course 9: Doughnut Shortcut -
3 Laps
Difficulty: *

Layout: Go up the spiral, into the distance you can see a road...follow
it to some secret spirals! At the top is an arrow pointing up, wait and
a platform will come here. Hop on the plunger that is on it, a POOF! A
few platforms and you're done!

Suggested Turbos: When going down the long road, the spirals, and that's
about it!

- Final: Spiral Insana -
1 Lap
Difficulty: * * *

Layout: First it will be some INSANA spirals, a few rollboosters, and
another short, but sweet, spiral. Then there are these weird things:
Platforms that move back and fourth...it's hard to explain, but it's
very disorientating. Near the middle of this you'll see a platform in
mid-air, well, fall through the platform (Down and Jump) and PRESTO!
Nice, BIG shorcut! Some platforms, lots of spirals (amored, of course)
and a few springs and rollboosters make up this stage.

Suggested Turbos: Everywhere! But don't waste them.

=== Tower 4: The Deep ===

- Course 1: Color Wolf Inc. -
3 Laps
Difficulty: *

Layout: A long path leads to sme armored spirals, at the top is a long,
circular path. Get on the platform above it, go to yourself (i.e. the
character is facing you) and drop through...another secret! This one
warps you to the very end of the level!
Suggested Turbos: At the start, and in the spirals.

- Course 2:  Davy Jones' Locker - (One of my favoirte levels!)
3 Laps
Difficulty: * *

Layout: A really long path leads to a section with a platform above, get
on it and (a) jump to the adajcent platform with the plunger. Follow the
arrows to find another plunger. Up the easy amored spiral it goes, at
the top is a warp. Take the left side, through the rollbooster. Grapple
up one platform, to find the finish line in the distance.

Suggested Turbos: At the start, where I put an "a". It's best to turbo,
jump to the upper platform (which will give you a mini-burst), do an
about-face, and use the mini-burst to hop to the plunger platform!
Getting into the warp, and getting into the rollbooster. Powerup in the
booster and unleash it near the end to make it a quicker trip!

- Course 3: Ski Jump -
3 Laps
Difficulty: * * *

Layout: Carefully go up the zipper platforms, which is hard to do, and
then through the rollboosters. "Flap" towards the nearest bridge, and
get in the middle. Don't worry about the enemies, the other players will
get hit, too! Then it's a little ammored spiral, and the black-and-
white.

Suggested Turbos: Whenever, not really needed.

- Course 4: Slip Slidin' Away -
3 Laps
Difficulty: * *

Layout: A long path and some platforms, then a plunger. Use the zippers
to go to the chance warp, which warps you to a rather large and winding
amored spiral (I'm getting tired of saying that...er...typing that),
then it's on to some swaying platforms, which leads to the end...JOY!

Suggested Turbos: At the very beginning, and after the first plunger,
and in the spirales...that should just abiut covcer it! :)

- Course 5: Fanatos -
3 Laps
Difficulty: * *

Layout: Go to the spring and rocket through all of the crud, up the
platforms, and to another spring. As it starts to wear down, turbo!
Oops..that doesn't belong here...oh well! Then it's on to A HUGE amored
spiral. After some nifty platforming, your at the finish line!

Suggested Turbos: Save them for the big armored place!

- Course 6: Taxidermy -
3 Laps
Difficulty: *

Layout: GO up the platforms, hit the plunger, and it;s off to a spring!
Can anyone say "armored spiral"? Well, there's one of those...

Suggested Turbos: In the long paths with nothing to do.

- Course 7: Hopadelic -
2 Laps
Difficulty: *

Layout: Some twirling armored spirals get in your way. Instead of going
up the platform, go behind it, there's a secret chance warp good for a
nice shirtcut!   Get in the chance warp on the next platform, after
going down a hill, and presto!!

Suggested Turbos: In the sprials, not to mention straightways!

- Course 8: Fan-Tastick! -
3 Laps
Difficulty: * * *

Layout: Go up the short amored spiral and go in the LOOOOOONNNGGGGG
(!!!) rollbooster, you should charge up all of your turbos (Don't need
'em, but hey!). Take a running jump and go over the fans to go up, up,
and away! The rest of the stage is just made up of twirling platforms
and fans, so...

Suggested Turbos: Don't REALLY need them.

- Course 9: Jimbabwe - (Another one of my favorites!)
2 Laps
Difficulty: * *

Layout: Go to the plunger, go up the platforms until you find an "Evan
Caller." Up the armored spirals we go, and even the slime covered path!
Watch out for Mr. Hammer, and you will see a platform UNDER the path
you're on. Well, drop down there! Keep dropping down until you find a
hidden warp, use it! Now you're at the end! Yay!

Suggested Turbos: In the spirals!

- Final: Bar Maldoror - (Yet another of my Favs)
1 Lap
Difficulty: * * *

Layout: Go hop on Mrs. Plunger and then everyone will land in one, big,
messy pile...ew! GO forward up the slime covered paths, and hit the
rollbooster! WOOOHOO! After a nasty twirling armored spiral, you'll
reach a warp. A veryyyy long rollbooster waits for you! Get on the "Evan
Caller" and Evan will come and fly you away! All I can say now is to go
with the flow, and the exit won't be far away.

Suggested Turbos: When everyone is in a pile, before rollboosters,
difficult platforms, etc...

NOTE
****

Well, this is as good as place as any to wrap this up. Now, now, I know
about the 5 other Towers, but it's time to return Iggy's Reckin' Balls
to BlockBuster :( Look forward to the next five (hopefully) when I rent
it this Friday...so...


----------
6) Secrets
----------

You can get 9 secret characters! Just beat the towers getting a
"Perfect!" on each one, set on Medium or Hard difficulty.

See the characters section for more!

That's the only secrets known at this time, but I'm sure more will
surface soon...hopefully.

7) Credits
----------

Nintendo: Well...no explanation needed

Acclaim: Company...

Iguana: They made it, along with the magnificent Turok franchise!

Presdient of Acclaim, whoever that may be: He (Or she) let a team of
people make Iggy's Reckin' Balls, the highly unique racer this FAQ is
about (if you haven't been paying attention) ;)

Me: I wrote this...
