Hey there, and welcome to my FAQ for "Cabbage Patch Kids: The Patch Puppy
Rescue". The Cabbage Patch Kids are a brand of dolls, and you can find out
about them at their Wikipedia page:

4. Walkthrough
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
First of all, you will be asked to select a character. Pick whicher of the
twenty-four you like best, and press the A button to continue. There will now
be a cutscene which introduces the story. Basically, all these kids get
puppies and leave them in a pen while they go out to play. The puppies escape
and not a single child knows where to go and find them.
You start off in a house, next to a girl with pigtails. Walk up to her and
speak to her with the A button. Approach the door to the right of her, and
go through it.
Area One
--------
Run to the right, collecting the blue gems. When you come to two trees with
low hanging branches, jump onto them, collecting the gem on the left and then
the gem on the right. Jump across to the next branch. Now, if you time it
right you can jump off and collect all three of the gems in one go. If you
miss, run back to the left, and climb back up into the trees to repeat. There
are some gems on the ground as well, so remember those, then continue right.
Soon, you will find another tree with low brances. Jump on the low branch,
then once again to reach the higher branches. There's a gem a couple of
trees to the left. Drop back down to the ground and run to the right.
After some more blue gems, you will find a gem above a prickly vine. To clear
the vine and pick up the gem, you need to take a running start, then jump
at the right moment. After you manage that, the scenery will change and you
appear to be outside some kind of house. There are some shelves with gems
on top, and two on the ground too. After taking care of those, continue.
Yet more gems are up some more branches to the right. Pick up them then walk
up the big hill. At the top, you will find one of the missing puppies. Speak
to it to complete the area. Cutscene.
Walk right a little bit and you'll reach another door. Go through that to get
to the second area.
Area Two
--------
This area is a city. Go right, past the lamp post, and over the bridge. On
the right hand side of the bridge, jump very high to collect a blue gem. After
passing another lamp post, a fire hydrant, and a barrel, you will come across
a dancing circle of fairies. Walk into that circle and the fairies will
levitate you up onto a ledge. Walk right, along the hedge, avoiding the nuts
that the squirrel on the branch drops systematically. Once you're lower down,
avoid another squirrel, collect a blue gem, and return to the pavement. Watch
out for a small white chicken on the ground. If you touch it, you will lose
some health. Jump over it (or wait until if flies up), then go up the hill to
another group of levitating fairies.
This time, they will dump you on a balcony. Walk right, down a flight of
stairs, and hop up onto the table. Jump to collect the two blue gems, and
repeat that for the table next to you. Back on the ground, collect the gems,
avoid another little chicken, and jump over a water fountain. Walk up the
small incline, to see a boy standing there. Speak to him. You will now have to
play a mini-game.
You will have to water the flowers as quickly as you can in this game. To do
this, you have to run as quickly as possible to the fountians, and press A
to turn on the tap. If you take too long doing later taps, the original plants
you watered will need watered again. My advice is to always do the top row
first and do the bottom second. This is because dropping from top to bottom is
quicker than jumping from bottom to top. Once you've finished, you can
continue to search for the puppy in this area.
Go right, avoiding another squirrel, and run over the bridge. Up on a little
platform, there will be a white hen so wait until it flies up before going
forwards. Collect the gem on the other side of the platform and use the group
of fairies to get up onto the hedge. Jump over the prickly vine and walk
downhill, avoiding two hens in the process. For now, ignore the gems you can
see in the sky, and drop back down to ground level. Hop over the fountain to
another group of fairies. Take a running jump left, over a massive gap and
leap onto the awning above the windows, to collect gems. If you fall off,
just walk back over to the fairies and they'll lift you back up. Collect all
of the gems on this side, and make your way back to the fairies to the right.
This time, instead of going left once they lift you, go to the right. There
will be a slidey patch on the pavement, but for now, avoid it and jump onto
the balcony above it. Follow the path of balconies and awnings to the right
where you will find many blue gems. When you reach a small hedge, go back
along the way you came, and this time, slide down the pavement. There will be
a fountain to avoid, but the gems make it worth it. Fairies will lift you back
up to the small hedge, and this time, continue along it. Slide down the steep
pavement, and you'll be stopped at the bottom by one of the puppies! Speak to
it to complete the area.
Jump up onto the little ledge to access the third door and the third area.
Area Three
----------
Go right, and step on the little waving branch. This branch acts as a spring
from which you can bounce to higher branches. Follow the ascending branches
upwards, and avoid a fountain that's mysteriously up a tree. On the right
side of the founding, jump onto the branch, and from there, onto two green
branches. These green branches will not support your weight for any decent
length of time, so don't stay on one for more than a second or two. Jump up on
to an even higher branch and then leap off, collecting the trail of gems in
mid-air. Slide down the slippery patches of leaves until you reach some
fairies. These fairies will not levitate you but will give you some floating
powder. Now, for a short period of time, if you jump, you will float longer
distances. Take a running jump to the right and try and clear the massive
distance. If you fail, simple walk back up to the fairies and try again.
Now, just like the springy branch, this sunflower acts as a spring. Use it
to reach the high platforms slightly to the left. Follow the platforms until
they finish, and finally drop down. Now, run onto the slippery patch to go
sliding down a great distance. When you reach the bottom, hop up onto the
ledge, collect the gem, and avoid the prickly vine. Just beyond that is a
bright red puppy. But, the level isn't over yet. There's a mini-game.
In this game, you have to splash in the puddles and score 10 points or more.
Puddles appear on the ground in random places but in frequent intervals. Just
run left and right and use A to jump. Land on one of the puddles to score 1
point. It really isn't hard at all. On my first try, I scored more than 30.
Now that you've done that, the dog will tell you that it thinks it can see
another dog in the distance. Go to the right, avoiding the beaver, and another
prickly vine. Keep jumping up the little ledges, and leap over the larger
fountain (with a fish on it??!?). Now go down onto the patio and watch out for
the moving turtle. Avoid it completely and get up onto the ledges. Hop up
another few ledges to find more of the fairies which make you float. Float
right, collecting gems, and this will cut out quite a bit of the level.
Now simply continue right, avoiding the occassional beaver or vine, until you
reach a slide. Slide down it and you will find some levitating faries. Use
them to reach the branch, and jump onto the green branch. Quickly move on to
a more stable branch, and keep going upwards until you reach another green
one. Make sure you don't stay on it for a long period of time, and hop up on
to another similar one above it. Now leap left to some more stable ground.
Jump up the slope and over the beaver, then onto the springy branch. Follow
the path of branches, gems, and ledges left, until you reach yet another
slide. Use it, and you'll find a prickly vine underneath a branch at the
bottom.
Watch out for the vine when jumping onto the branch, and use that branch to
reach higher ones. Go left onto the ground, and slide downwards, to find the
puppy. It turns out that the dog was lying and he couldn't see the other
puppy at all. Now, at last, this level's over.
Go down the slope to find the fourth area.
Area Four
---------
Start off by collecting the single gem straight in front of you. Slide down
the short slop then hop over the fish fountain. Go down the flight of stairs
and avoid the turtle, continuing to the right. Jump on the bee which acts as
a springboard. Use the floating fairies to give you some floating powder then
launch yourself to the right, collecting the gems in the sky. Watch out at
this point for a turtle that might appear out of nowhere. Jump over the two
white chickens. Take a running jump, taking off just before the steps, to
grab a gem that's almost out-of-reach. There's another turtle to jump over,
and a beaver too. Use the bee to bounce to the right, onto a platform. If you
go left there are some gems, but right is the way forward.
Now there are two options. You can jump using the fairies to get some gems or
you can go down the slide, also giving gems. Either way, you will end up next
to a little girl. It's mini-game time!
In this mini-game, you have to wash the puppies, scoring more than ten points
while you're at it. To play, catch the different coloured bottles that fall
from the sky, then press A when you're next to the child with the same
coloured jumper that the bottle was. It may take you a few tries to get 10
points though. This is the hardest of the mini-games so far.
Use the bee in front of you to go straight up to the platform. Now jump up to
the right on to the next platform and follow the path laid out by the gems.
Some floating fairies will allow you to float onwards. Time your landing
correctly as to land on the branch of the tree. Jump across to the springey
branch to the right and use that to reach the higher platform. From there,
simply step down onto the next two branches. Their positions can be seen from
the positions of the two blue gems. Leap across onto the balcony and use the
blue slide. Now go up on to the patch of raised ground and leap on to the
branch. Follow the path of the gems until you reach another slide. Use it and
you'll see that it's a much smaller one, and it leads to the next missing
puppy. Are Complete!
From the Area Four door, go right, and jump up on to the chest. Jump again on
to the platform, where you'll find the next area.
Area Five
---------
From the start, go right, jumping over the turtle, and collect the two blue
gems. Hop up on to the two branches and use the fairies to float on to a
platform with a treehouse on it. If you miss, you'll fall down to the ground,
but if you go back left, you will find more fairies ready to take you back up
to your starting point. Anyway, land in the treehouse, and jump on the bouncy
branch to your right to get on top of the it. Leap across to the branch to
your left and climb up the tree to find more fairies. These fairies will lift
you up to a green branch. Quickly jump to the second green branch, then again
to the right to reach a solid branch. Jump over to the next treehouse.
Continue to your left, collecting the gems, and you'll find yourself on a
much larger platform.
Run all the way over to the left of this platform and jump down to where you
can see a blue gem below you. Repeat this to the left. You will see some
fairies but do not use them unless you want some gems. Instead, drop down,
and you'll find the puppy that marks the end of the area.
Hop across the small gap and enter the next door.
Area Six
--------
Go right and collect the blue gems. Hit the switch to get the platform to
start moving. Stand on it when it's low down and you will be lifted up to a
platform. Hop over to the left and hit the next switch which will do the same
to the next platform. Before you get on the moving platform, there is a blue
gem further to the left. Jump off the platform into the floating fairies, and
jump to the right to float down on to a ledge. There's another switch here,
which gets a third platform moving. Go up the stairs, but watch out for holes
which will send to back to the bottom of the level. Use the sunflower to
bounce up to a hanging ledge. Hit the switch to set a platform moving. Leap
across on to the small platfrom where the moving platform goes up and down.
When you reach the top, JUMP OVER the stairs going down, because if you slide
down them, you won't be able to stop in time and you'll go rocketing down
below.
Halfway down the stairs, hit the switch. Use the platform at the bottom to
reach a higher balcony with fairies on it. There is a single gem above this
balcony if you stay on the platform. The fairies will allow you to float,
so float right to a narrow ledge. Jump up twice then leap left on to a ledge
that's hanging from the cieling with chains. The puppy will be standing on
this ledge (how it got there, I have no idea).
Back in the playroom, if you speak to the dog next to you, you can play a short
mini-game in which you have to put toys in the correct chest. Once you've done
that, you've completely finished the game!
