001-General Information
-----------------------------------------------------------

This is a walkthrough for the Nintendo Entertainment System
(NES) game called Wagyan land.  It's a Japanese game, and
presumably only cam out in Japan.  Since language is an
important part of the game, you shouldn't try to play it
unless you can read Japanese.  Maybe you can get a translated
version.

You can e-mail me at [email protected], but make
the subject blank so I know that it's not spam.  If you want
to use part of the guide for something, please ask first

004-Walkthrough
-----------------------------------------------------------

You start off at the beginning of Wagyan land.  It seems
obvious that you'll have to get all the way across to the
other side of Wagyan land.

Stage one
----------

You start off at the port.  Go right, and jump across the
high platforms.  You'll meet a snail.  Now, every bad guy
in Wagyan land kills you if you touch it, so avoid the snail
and get the stuffed version of you.

When you pick up a stuffed wagyan, your attack power is
increased.  Collect four to become invincible.

Go right.  Jump over the next snail and get another stuffed
wagyan.  Go right past it.  A bird will try to fly at you.
Press B while in midair to fire something at it.  The bird
will be stunned.  It only lasts a while, so go past it and
jump onto the platform.

As soon as you're on the platform, start firing your thing.
Go right, and two pigs will attack, but you should have gotten
them with your firing.  Keep going right.

When you have to go down, you'll land near a worm thing.  Go
right past it.  You'll meet a mole.  Go past it to a springboard.

Spring off the springboard right.  You should get a stuffed
wagyan on the way.  If not, you messed up, and if you messed
up, the mushroom will probably kill you.  Go right.

Jump over the worm thing's pit.  Go right casually and get
another stuffed wagyan.  That's your fourth one!  Now go right
really fast, using your invincibility to kill all enemies in
your way.

Eventually, you'll meet three frogs.  The frogs are guarding two
paths.  Take the upper path right out of this stage.

Stage two
---------

Go right.  Jump across the snail's pit, and go to the river.
Jump from platform to platform (don't fall in the water).
Avoid the frog and get the stuffed wagyan.

When you pass the river, go right.  Fire before you jump over
the pit.  You'll stun a mushroom.  Jump into the pit right
of him and get the stuffed wagyan.  Jump to the platform right
of it, and stun the mushroom there.

Right past it is a forest-like area.  Go right (a mushroom
is on the long run of stumps).  Jump off the end of the
run of stumps and get the stuffed wagyan.  Go right (look
out for the mushrooms).

Right past the mushrooms is a stuffed wagyan.  Get it to make
four.  Use your invincibility to quickly go as far right as
possible (you'll have to jump off of the stumps).

Eventually, you'll be stopped, and an ominous purple mushroom.
He'll take you to a word chain game.

There are a bunch of pictures of different things.  The boss
picks out one thing.  Then the game begins.

To play correctly, pay attention to the last letter of the
word your opponent chooses (the game points it out).  Then
you want to find a word that begins with that letter.  It
goes on and on.

However, there's a time limit.  And when a picture is picked
it cannot be picked again.  You want to make it so that your
opponent has no possible picture to choose so he can continue
the game, and he'll go out.  But he's trying to do the same
to you.

Since it's random each time, I can't give you a step-by-step
solution.  You'll just have to do it on your own!

Here's an example of a word chain:

Gorilla
Oinker (can be a pig)
Rat
Trumpet
(Bad guy dropped out)

Beat the chain game to pass this stage.  If you lose, you die.
You also get another life if you win.

Stage Three
-----------

It appears that you are in a place with many stone blocks
(Stonehenge?).

Go right.  Jump on the stone, and jump to the next stone
(avoiding the beach ball).  Get the stuffed wagyan while
jumping to the next stone.  The spring right of you will take
a short jump, and then a big jump.  Stun him when he does the
big jump.  Then fall down, get the stuffed wagyan, go right,
and jump onto the stone there.

Jump right (avoiding the beach ball).  Walk across the top
of the stone to avoid the cane.  Jump off it onto another
stone (avoid the beach ball).  Jump to the next stone using
timing so you don't get hit by the spring.

Jump off this stone right (avoiding the beach ball).  Fire
while you're level with the stone right of you to stun a
cane.  Jump onto the stone and go right off it (not easy if
the cane isn't stunned).

Here's a tricky part.  A spring is in front of the next stone.
Stun the spring when it's about halfway between the top of the
stone and the ground.  Then jump off the ground onto the
stunned spring, and off the spring onto the stone.

Jump onto the stone right, avoiding the spring and the beach
ball.  Go right onto the stone there.

Right of here are three springs in a row.  Get past them
however you can (if you're good, you can stun all three of
them with one shot).  Go onto the stone right of them.

While avoiding the beach ball, get the stuffed waygan
and get onto the platform right of you.  Jump from platform
to platform, and get the stuffed wagyan.  That makes four
of them!  Go right as fast as you can, using your invincibility
to its best.  You should make it to the boss, a construction
worker.

The boss takes you to a board with a bunch of cards like last
time.  But instead of a word chain game like last time, it's
the memory game.

Everyone knows how to play the memory game, but if you don't,
I'll explain.  You flip two cards over, and try to get a
match.  If you get a match, you get to go again.  If not,
your opponent takes a turn.  This continues until all the
cards are gone.  The person with the most matches wins.

So just beat the guy at the memory game to beat the level.
I don't know if this is different every game, but the middle
two rows are each other going in opposite directions.  Same
with the other two rows.  Here's the example:

L O S T G A M E R
R E M A G T S O L   (the other row backwards).

Beat this guy to get to the next stage.

Stage Four
----------

Yay, a sliding level!  Slide down the really cool slide to
the right.  You get a stuffed Wagyan.  Jump off at the end
onto another slide (jump to the higher one).

Ride this slide right.  You get a stuffed Wagyan.  Jump off
at the end (you get a stuffed wagyan) onto the other slides.
Take the middle slide.  When you get the stuffed wagyan, jump
onto the highest slide and go right as fast as you can through
the enemies (you're invinicible!)

At the end of this slide, jump off and land on the lower slide.
Ride it right through more enemies.  Jump off this slide onto
the lower platform (it's a slide that moves straight left/right
like ground).  About now your invincibility wears off.

Go right to the edge of this platform.  Two platforms are
going around in a circle.  Jump onto one of the platforms
when it is at the left part of the circle, and off it when
it is at the right part.  Take the middle slide (you get a
stuffed wagyan).

Jump off the middle slide onto two more circle platforms.
Jump off them onto more slides (get the stuffed wagyan in
mid-jump).  Take the top slide, and jump right off it onto
two more circling platforms.

Get the stuffed wagyan to make four.  Invincible time again!
Go right onto the higher slide and ride it right through all
the enemies.  Jump off it onto another slide (take the higher
one) through more enemies.

Jump off this slide onto more slides (the higher one).  Don't
worry, this is the last one.  Ride it right, but jump off
the tall bump (and only bump going up).  Jump to the right
and you avoid a spiked cannonball.  Walk right to the boss.

The boss is a purple fairy.  She does a chain game with you.
Beat her to pass to the next stage.

Stage Five
----------

Hey, it looks like you're on a tropical island!

Go right to meet some crabs.  Get used to their weird way
of moving, as you'll have to dodge it a lot.  Go right past
the crabs.  Stun one of the crabs, and jump off the crab to
get a stuffed wagyan.

You'll run into a bunch of stumps with crabs on it.  Stun the
first crab.  Keep stunning him until the second crab is pretty
much in the same spot he is.  Now go right past them (easier
with both of them in the same spot).

Jump off at the end of this platform.  Go onto the stump.
Jump up and stun the crab on the next stump.  Jump onto the
stunned crab, and right off that stump.

Go right across the platform with two crabs.  Jump onto the
stump right off it, and off the stump to get a stuffed
wagyan.  On the stumps right of you here is an octorock.  You
know, from the Zelda games.  Go past him.

Go right past the two crabs.  Walk right here.  Worms fall
out of the sky.  If you keep walking, they miss you, but when
the third one starts to fall, turn back left.  When it hits
the ground, jump right over it.

Stun the crab here and jump off it to get a stuffed wagyan.
Go right through the two crabs.  Go right past it, and in a
little while you get a stuffed wagyan.  That's four!

Well, you should know what to do here.  Go as far right as
you can.  You'll cross over some water on your way.  You can
make it all the way to the boss, a crocodile.

The crocodile challenges you to the word chain game.  This
time, your time is cut in half.  Quickly beat the crocodile
to get to the next stage.

Stage Six
---------

Well, you seem to be in a lake.  You seem to be getting close
to the edge of Wagyan land!

Go right.  Move towards the stuffed wagyan, but move back
left to avoid a fish.  When the fish is gone, get the wagyan.

See the platform right of this one?  When the crab is out of
the way, jump to that platform.  Wait for the fish to stop,
and jump to the platform right of that one.

Stun a fish in midair, and jump off it to get a stuffed
wagyan.  Once you get it, jump to the next platform.

Go right over the crabs.  Wait for the two fish at the end
of this platform to leave before you jump to the next one.
Land in the middle of the platform to avoid being hit by a
fish.

Jump right onto a platform with a worm.  Jump right off that
onto a platform with a crab.  Wait for the two fish at the
end of the platform to pass.  Now you have to spring off the
springboard right.  You have to do a running jump, like in
Super Mario Bros.  Good luck.

If you do make it, get the two stuffed Wagyans there.  That
makes four, which means you're invincible.  Go right (you
have to do another spring).  Before your invincibility wears
off, you should meet the boss, a pink crocodile.

The pink crocodile challenges you to the memory game.  Here's
the chart of where the cards are (each letter represents a
different card:

ABCDEF
GHIJKL
LAIJFG
HDEBCK

Beat the pink crocodile (easy since you know the secret) to
get to the next stage.  You get seven extra lives if you get
a perfect score (your opponent doesn't make any matches).

Stage Seven
------------

Finally!  You made it to Wagyan village!  But where are the
other wagyans?

Go right and stun the shoe.  Stun the cane, and jump off it
onto the wagyan house (a pink house...that looks sick).  Get
the stuffed wagyan on the house.

Wait on the house until the cane and shoe go away.  Then go
right.  Jump over the spiked cannonball.  Stun the cane
and jump off it onto another house.  Get the stuffed wagyan
there, and head right.

Go right here.  Jump onto a house with some dirt right of it.
Stand on the left part of this house, and fire right.  You
hit some invisible thing.  Keep hitting it, and a portal
opens.  Jump in it.

Hey, a hidden level!  You're invincible now, so explore around
and kill the enemies.  As soon as your invincibility ends,
you get sent back to Wagyan Village.

Go right.  As soon as the shoe shows up, jump onto the house
behind you.  Jump off the house (avoid the spring) onto the
fence.  Right of you are three springs.  Do what you can to
go right past them, but don't get the stuffed wagyan here
(you'll find out why later).

Go right through the simple area here (get the stuffed wagyan).
You make it to Wagyan Rock (a big rock shaped like Wagyan).
Another Wagyan (a yellow one with a beard) comes out to talk
to you.

The old Wagyan says, "You've done well Wagyan but you're too
late.  Our people were kidnapped.  I'll give you our treasure.
'Super Wagyanator'.  This may help you save the villagers.
Will you accept it?  Are you sure?"

You can choose to accept it or not.  If not, the old Wagyan
says, "It will be hard, but I know you can make it...Go save
our village."  If you do get it, he says, "You truly are
brave.  But be careful.  Go save our village."

No matter what you do, you get sent to the next stage.

Stage Eight
-----------

Go left.  Avoid the spiked cannonball, and jump onto the house.
Get the stuffed wagyan there.  That makes four!  Go right as
fast as you can.  Take the upper path on your way to the
next stage.

Stage Nine
----------

You have to travel along a water-filled place to reach a
graveyard.  Maybe you'll meet the dead Wagyan's ghost there...

Jump left.  A bugger lands on the platform above you.  It
follows you around.  Stand on the end of the platform you're
on.  When the bugger falls to get you, jump to where the bugger
was.  Get the stuffed wagyan.

Look left.  Wait until both the fishes have done two jumps,
and then quickly jump left onto the platform there (quickly
because the bugger is still on your tail).

Jump to the platform left of you.  Jump to the platform left
of that (get the stuffed wagyan on your way).  Land on the
platform in midair.  Quickly, jump onto the platform in midair
right of you, and jump right off it.  Try to land on the log
(if you took to long, you miss).  Ride the log left.

Jump off the log onto a platform in midair.  All this while,
look out for the fish that jump twice.  Go right, jumping from
platform to platform (get the stuffed wagyan).

A long way left, you'll find some tree stumps.  Go left,
and one has a stuffed wagyan.  That makes four!  Quickly go
left as fast as you can.  You can make it to the graveyard.

In the graveyard, a tealish Wagyan ghost shows up.  It says,
"Wagyan...is that you brother?  After you left a lot happened.
I have a treasure that might help you get to Dr. Devil...
'Wagyan Copter'.  With it you can fly but can't attack.
Will you take it?  Are you sure?"

Take the Wagyan copter.  It will save you a LOT of trouble.
Once you decide, you go to the next stage.

Stage Ten
---------

Well, this level isn't too much of a challenge with the Wagyan
copter.  You can stay at the top of the screen and go left
the whole time to avoid being hit.  All you have to do is
duck down when a spiked cannonball or a missile comes at you.
Simple as long as you have the copter.

Past the two mosquitoes, you make it to the boss, a vulture.

The vulture challenges you to the memory game.  Here's the
layout:

AACDDF
GHIJKC
LJKHIF
GBBLEE

Beat the vulture to get to the next stage.

Stage Eleven
------------

Well, you're on your way to get to the tree where Dr. Devil
must be.  However, the tree's mouth is way up high.  So you're
going to have to go up there by doing many tricky jumps straight
up.  Hard.

Wait a tick...you can just use the Wagyan Copter!  Yes!  Simply
fly straight up.  At the end, enter the small hole in the
tree's bark.  Easy.

Stage Twelve
------------

For some reason, you're falling down to the bottom of the tree
(you're inside the tree, don't worry).  You don't have to do
anything to beat this stage (you can try to get the stuffed
wagyans, but since there aren't any enemies, just get three).

Stage Thirteen
--------------

Uh oh, thirteen.  Not a good number.  And this is the last
stage, too.  Ominous.

You'll need to go up to the top of the tree again.  This time,
you follow a different strategy.  Here it goes.

Step one: Go left.
Step two: Go up.
Step three: Go right.
Step four: Go up.
Step five: Repeat steps one through five.

With the Wagyan Copter, this stage is easy.  The only problem
is that this level's so damn long.  Along the way, you'll see
the villagers, all trapped in cages.  How cruel!

At the end, you'll stop and it seems that the game has frozen.
Then Wagyan closes his eyes and the evil Dr. Devil comes
out.  He laughs at your puny attempts to beat him.

Dr. Devil challenges you to a memory game.  Here's the format:

ABCBAF
GHCJKL
HGFDLK
JEIDIE

After you beat him, Dr. Devil says, "Crap!" (I'm betting in
Japanese he said shit).  He makes up the excuse that it was
just a practice round.  Then he takes you on in a word chain
game.

This word chain game is like the other ones with a twist.
When you continue the chain, a small bar appears left of you.
Get enough bars so that they pass the line above them.  Then
beat the doctor.  It's really hard.

Well, beat the doctor to win the game.
