Welcome to the first and only GameFaq for Insmouse No Yakata.
Insmouse is the only Ego-Shooter for the Nintendo Virtual Boy. It is one of 8
Japan-Only Games and the 6th rarest of all 33 (22 different) released Virtual
Boy Games. It was developed in 1995 by I'Max based upon a Horror-Movie which
was only shown in Cinemas in Japan. Most people consider this to be the worst
game for the Virtual Boy, but I don't, I think it's quite cool. With it's 45
levels it's much longer than many other VB-Games, it runs smooth, the sound
is quite good and it has a great atmosphere. I haven't played all of the
released games yet, but I haven't seen such a cool intro and titlescreen
in any other Virtual Boy Game (OK, except 3D Tetris...). Much more could have
been made out of it, though.
This is my first FAQ ever but I did my best and I hope that it'll
help you seeing Ending A =) By the way, since I'm german, please drop me a
line if you find any spelling- or grammar-errors or other mistakes.

[03] THE GAMEPLAY ___________________________________________//__________/
______________________/

Insmouse is a Doom-style Ego-Shooter and your goal is to walk through the
mazes and find the key to open a certain door which leads to the next level.
Insmouse contains a total of 45 different levels. While playing through the
game you'll see 13 of them. After you completed a maze the next one will
eighter be higher or lower depending on the time you needed to complete a
maze. If you were fast enough, you'll enter the next highest Level. At the end
you can get one of four endings. You'll only get the best ending (A) if you
completed the 13 levels fast enough. That's not as easy as it sounds,
especially in the last levels... Below you can see the level-scheme as it is
in the Game:

While exploring a maze, the screen is divided into 3 parts. 2 small Bars
on the left and the right give information about your ammo and life, the
items you found, and the directions you can go. In the center you can see
the proper game and a timer.

(2) Your Ammo is displayed here. Maximum is 6 Bullets. When you have no
Bullets left, you can reload by pressing the left shoulder button and
your Stock will decrease by 1.

(4) The Key is displayed here in case you found it.
(5) When you're able to walk to the left, an arrow is displayed here.
(6) This is your Lifebar. Everytime you get hit by a monster it de-
creases by 1. You can increase your Life by 1 by picking up a
heart. Maximum is 5 Hearts.
(7) The White and/or Black Orb are displayed here in case you found it.
(8) When you're able to walk to the right, an arrow is displayed here.
(9) This is the crosshair of your weapon.

If you type in "DEMO" as a password, something weird happens:
The level overview appears as if you were playing "normal", but no level is
marked, so you don't play one of the regular levels, if you press a button,
the level starts as usual, but in the next moment, before you can do
anything, you run out of time, and the "Game Over" screen appears...

[08] LEVELS/MAPS ___________________________________________//__________/
______________________/

You can find ASCII maps of all 45 levels of Insmouse below with marked
starting points and exits. I couldn't mark items on the maps, because they're
placed randomly every time you start a level. So I just listed all the items
that can be found in each level. Under every map you can read how to enter
the next highest level.

The field marked with "S" is the starting point.
The field marked with "X" is the exit.
Fields marked with "L" are doors.
Sometimes large monsters break through the wall at fields marked with "*".

Level 13a "HYDE"
--------------------

This is the biggest and hardest level in the whole game; you're starting
in a long corridor which leads directly to the exit. It has doors on both
sides every 2nd screen. It is nearly impossible to get Ending A, because
you have to complete this maze in under 8 seconds (!! or less?), so you
have to a have a lot of luck: the key MUST be in the long corridor so that
you only have to run straight to the exit and beside that you'll have to
kill the monster in that corridor as fast as possible. I still couldn't
get Ending A, my best time was 8 sec and it was still too slow!!
Well.. good luck =)

[09] THE ENDiNGS _________________________________________//__________/
______________________/

Ending A:
-----------
I couldn't get this one yet, but I suppose that it is like Ending B, just
this time the gun doesn't run out of ammo and kills all the monsters and in
the end the fog doesn't come back. In other words: an happy end in which
the guy manages to escape from the mansion.

Ending B:
-----------
At first the mansion is shown with some effects in the sky, then some kind
of a monster's face shortly appears in front of the mansion. After that you
see this guy (supposedly the hero of the game) standing in front of the
mansion when suddenly a creepy hand appears behind him. Then there's a cut
to a dark scene where you can only see half of a monster's face, with some
pairs of eyes in the dark behind the face. After that you see a gun firing
and some eyes disappear, then the gun is shown again, but it ran out of
ammo. The eyes reappear and you see the fog from the intro reappearing in
front of the mansion. After that the credits are shown.

Ending C:
-----------
This is by far the coolest ending in my opionion: at first the mansion is
shown with some effects in the sky, then some kind of a monster's face
shortly appears in front of the mansion. After that you see this guy
(supposedly the hero of the game) standing in front of the mansion. It
becomes dark around him and then you can see him being hit by a lightning
in front of a big monster's face for a few seconds. In the next scene you
see a monster that looks very much like a human... It's the guy! After that
the credits are shown.

Ending D:
-----------
At first the mansion is shown with some effects in the sky, then some kind
of a monster's face shortly appears in front of the mansion. After that you
see this guy (supposedly the hero of the game) standing in front of the
mansion when suddenly clouds of ashes rise from the ground of the
foundation of the mansion as if it was collapsing. Then a screen sppears
that says: "THIS IS NOT TRUE ENDING. LET'S RETRY! Ending D"

[10] TiPS ___________________________________________//__________/
______________________/

Especially in the higher levels bullets are rare, so try to save your ammo.
That means to only attack a monster if it is blocking your way to an item or
the exit or if 2 or more monsters trapped you.

If you attack a monster, try to shoot it from one or two screens away, so the
monster can't attack you while you CAN attack it.

Never rest while exploring a maze, your highest goal is finding the key and
after that the exit as fast as possible to enter the next highest level.
Beeing too slow results in a lower ending, so hurry!

When you found the key but haven't found any Orb, run through the maze and
enter as many doors as possible and you may luckily enter the correct one,
the exit!

Sometimes the bigger monsters break through walls, so if you see stones
flying in the corridor in front of you, be careful, because that means that
a large monster is near. But besides that, this can sometimes be a nice
shortcut.

[11] FUTURE ___________________________________________//__________/

There is still a lot of work left for me. I still have to do descriptions of
all the monsters and there are also about half of the maps waiting to be
"ASCII-ed". But the hardest part seems to be getting Ending A ;)
