=============================================================================
First announced as an N64 game, then a Gamecube release game, Star Fox
Adventures finally game out in late September of 2002 as Rareware's farewell
project on Nintendo as they were bought out by Microsoft. Because of its long
game development Star Fox Adventures (SFA for short) was extremely hyped and
didn't live up to most people's expectations. Though the game seemed rather
rushed and the graphics less amazing toward the end, SFA is still an amazing
game showing the power of the Gamecube.

===============================================================================
Control Stick: As with most other games out there, tilting this in any
direction will allow you to move in that direction. Simple
enough, right?
D-Pad: Toggle your PDA's current function.
C-Stick: You can use this to access all of your items on the fly. Moving it
right or left will toggle between the different categories of items
and tilting it up or down will select an item from the chosen
category.
A button: This is the action button that'll perform most of your moves and
such. It also allows you to attack using your staff.
B button: Other than putting away your staff (if you have it pulled at), all
this button does is cancel your current selection.
X button: With this, you can perform a forward roll. When you're locked onto an
enemy, you can also execute a plethora of other evasive manuevers
with this same button.
Y button: You can assign an item, staff ability, or Sidekick command to this
button and use it easily with the press of the Y button.
Z button: Pressing this will allow you to take a look at your surroundings in
first-person view mode.
L trigger: Pressing this will center the camera behind your character. If you
hold it down, you can enter what's called "Sidestep mode". During
this, the camera will stay behind Fox's back and you'll be able to
easily strafe around and such. Pretty useful, if you ask me.
R trigger: This will execute a blocking move whilst fighting enemies. Very
useful.

===============================================================================
Fox McCloud: Fox is the protagonist of the story, and the guy we control for
the vast majority of the game. Not only is he the leader of Star
Fox, a group of space mercenaries, but he's also an incredibly
competent pilot. Unfortunately, we don't get to see a whole lot of
his piloting skills in this game. Instead, we get to help him beat
up dinosaurs with a stick.
Krystal: Krystal is a mysterious girl who is the sole survivor of some ancient
race. Since she's such a kindhearted person, she heads straight for
the world known as Dinosaur Planet when she hears a distress call.
Prince Tricky: Tricky is the young prince of the EarthWalker tribe, and a royal
pain in the neck. For a good portion of the game, he'll follow
you around like he's your shadow. Of course, he can't actually
do anything worthwhile to help you out in battle. Nope, instead
he can dig stuff up. Whoop-de-doo.
Peppy Hare: This old donkey is one-fourth of team Star Fox. If you contact him
during the game, he'll display the world map for you.
Slippy Toad: Another member of the Star Fox team is Slippy the Toad. Talk to
him during the game and he'll give you some nifty little hints
pertaining to the task currently at hand.
General Pepper: This guy doesn't play much of a role in the game, but he does
charge Fox with the mission on Dinosaur Planet. If you click on
his icon on the submenu, he'll display your current status and
all the stuff you've collected.
General Scales: Not only is this guy one bad dude, but he's also the leader of
the SharpClaw tribe and your main foe in this game. As bad as
this game's storyline is, though, I'd still rather not spoil
anything for you.

===============================================================================
=========================== Battling War Galleon ==============================
Tasks:
[ ] Win Battle
[ ] Gain Access to ship
The game starts out with a movie of a young girl named Kyrstal coming to
Dinosaur Planet because of a distress call. As she's flying in the air with
her dinosaur a fireball coming from a ship zooms by knocking her staff down to
the planet. After this the movie ends it is time for battle. The battle
consists of four phases, the first is you are fighting two heads on the back
of the ship, avoid their fireballs and deliver one of your own fireballs to
each head. You've hit one when it's on fire. The second phase is the easiest.
Basically what you want to do is destroy the back engine type thing. Shoot
your blue fireballs at the rods sticking out of the circle until all of them
are destroyed. The third phase is the same as the first, and the fourth phase
is you verse the head of the ship (literally). Deliver a few blows to the
dinosaur head and the battle is over and you appear on the ship.
=========================== Onboard War Galleon ===============================
Tasks:
[ ] Get key to Krazoa Palace
[ ] Get thrown off ship
After the battle is over you come onboard the ship. Run down the ramp and
across the straight stretch. Run up the ramp in the northern portion of the
ship now and talk to the thing in the cage by using the A button. After you
finish talking a door will open up behind you so run down the ramp, across the
straight stretch and into the newly accessible room. Inside this room find a
golden key to the Krazoa Palace then head out and back up to where you talked
to the thing in the cage. A movie will start with you talking to General
Scales, the dictator of Dinosaur Planet. Scales will get mad and throw you
off the ship, but your dinosaur will save you and you'll fly off to Krazoa
Palace.
============================== Krazoa Palace ==================================
Tasks:
[ ] Blow your way into the palace
[ ] Learn about the Krazoa Spirits
[ ] Get the first Krazoa Spirit
[ ] Get Crystallized
From where you start out outside the palace head north a bit and you'll go
through a fuel barrel explanation. After the fuel barrel thing continue going
north and talk to the nearby dinosaur that will tell you about rolling away
from enemies. Continue on going west and you should see a locked gate with a
place to put a key, put the key you got in the War Galleon in and the gate
will open. Inside there is a fuel barrel, pick it up and head over to the
eastern side of where you can go. There is a bunch of crates somewhere around
the eastern side, throw the barrel at them revealing a path down, but don't
go down yet. Go back to where you had the fuel barrel explanation and there
will be a fuel barrel there, pick it up and head over to the newly opened
path.
Head down the stairs (the new path) and into the sheltered area and there will
be a crack in the wall somewhere. Throw your fuel barrel at the crack making
a passage into the hallway and enter the hallway. Head left until you reach a
dinosaur, talk to the dinosaur then grab the fuel barrel near him and throw
it at the pile of crates destroying them. Don't go to the new area yet
though, go back out into the hall and go all the way left then up and find a
fuel barrel. After you get a fuel barrel go back to where the dinosaur is
then go into the new area. There is fire in this new room that goes on then
off, if you are hit by it while carrying the fuel barrel the barrel will
explode, so be careful when navigating through the room. At the end of the
room should be a cracked wall, throw the fuel barrel at the wall creating a
passage to a new room.
In this new room there will be a fuel barrel and a switch, pick up the barrel
and put it down on the switch opening up a new area. Go over and talk to the
dinosaur there then head to the Krazoa Shrine warp pad and warp to the shine.
When you arrive climb up the ladder and you'll be at a sort of a gauntlet,
but it's very easy. Wait until the fire is out to cross those obstacles then
climb down the ladder, run across then climb up. There is a weird barrier
protecting your access to the next room though, this is an enemy barrier, you
must kill all the enemies in the room before passing; grab a fuel barrel then
throw it at the enemy. The door will open, but first grab another fuel barrel
and move on into the next room.
Put the fuel barrel down on the pad then run across the fire things when they
aren't spewing fire and the gauntlet is over. Talk to the spirit and it's
time to take the first Krazoa Spirit test. This is the test of observation
and it's easier than getting dressed. All you have to do is watch the spirit
go into one of the vases then watch the vase it does into. Guess correct
three times and you get the spirit easy huh? After you get the spirit you'll
automatically be taken back to the Palace. Talk to the dinosaur then head
over to the circle with the weird looking design on it and ride it up to a
tunnel. Find a place to release the spirit in the tunnel then Krystal will be
crystallized by some mysterious force. The game now shifts over to Fox
McCloud.
========================== The Great Fox/ Flying ==============================
Tasks:
[ ] Get new mission
[ ] Fly to Dinosaur Planet
Welcome to the Great Fox home of the Star Fox crew. Your time at the Great
Fox is short, just some talking and fox gets a mission. After the talk
you'll be able to fly to dinosaur planet. Flying is pretty easy, basically
you must shoot things with the A button while going through the required or
more than required amount of golden rings. This time you only have to go
through one golden ring, but try to go through as many as possible. Also note
that if you hit something you'll probably die, so use your blaster to destroy
things and navigate around undestroyable objects.
============================= Thorntail Hollow ================================
Tasks:
[ ] Get Staff
[ ] Get fire-blaster staff upgrade
[ ] Talk to Queen Earthwalker
[ ] Warp to Ice Mountain
Welcome to Dinosaur Planet! Begin out by heading north until you see a staff
between some flowers and palm trees, pick it up and listen to the girl talk
about it. After the talking is over head north to a sort ofstone place and
some enemies'll attack you called sharp claws. Destroy them with your staff.
After the battle is over an area to the west will be shown, hurry over there.
At this area lift up the rock with your staff and go down the hole. Run down
the path and you'll be at a place with water and a bunch of platforms. Swim
to the platform in the middle and press A to get the fire-blaster staff
upgrade. Go back to exit this place, but you'll discover there's a gate
blocking the way. Next to the gate is a red pad, shoot it with your
fire-blaster and the gate will open and head back outside.
Now head back to where you were attacked by the enemies and look up, there's
a giant red pad. Shoot the red pad with your fire-blaster and head into the
place that opens up. Inside you'll find the queen. Talk to the queen and
learn that you need to rescue her son who's been kidnapped and taken to Ice
Mountain. After you're done talking a dinosaur will move revealing a weird
pile of dirt. To get to Ice Mountain you need a few things first, so time to
get them! Start out by pulling rocks up with your staff until you have 10
scarabs (money) then go to the store, the cave in the west portion of the
hollow. In the store buy a rock candy then leave and get 5 more scarabs and
buy a map of the Snowhorn Wastes.
Now there is only one more thing to do to, go back to where your spaceship is
and search around until the explanation of bomb plants and go up. Shoot the
bomb plant with your fire-blaster, collect some spores, then go to where the
dinosaur moved and the weird dirt is. Plant a bomb spore where the weird dirt
is making a bomb plant, then blow it up making a hole. Go through the hole
and you're in the Warp Stones place, go around to the back and talk to the
Warp Stone. He'll complain nobody ever brings him gifts so give him the rock
candy and he'll agree to warp you to places eventually. Now it's time to warp
to Ice Mountain!
=============================== Ice Mountain ==================================
Tasks:
[ ] Rescue Tricky
[ ] Make it to Snowhorn Wastes
After your journey to Ice Mountain Warp Stone style you'll appear in a cave,
walk out and a movie will start. Prince Tricky will be lowered down from a
plane, then beaten and taken into a locked place. After the movie ends find a
fuel barrel nearby and throw it at the pile of small crates. Defeat all the
enemies behind the crates making a red pad appear above where they took
tricky. Shoot the red pad with your fire-blaster upgrade opening it up,
Tricky will run away and the people that have Tricky captured will speed of
toward him. Grab a snow bike from inside and take off also. This is one of
the harder parts of the game, the objective is to beat the two enemies to
the end of the ride, which can be either done by passing or destroying them.
To destroy them ram them until they blow, and passing is self-explanatory.
It may take a few tries, but eventually you should win. Make sure to never
get hit by the mines they plant and to jump off hills if possible (it looks
cool and give you a speed boost). After you win you'll fly off a cliff a land
in the water where you'll have a talk with tricky, he'll then become your
partner until you get him home. Follow the path now and soon you should come
across a passage across lava, but sadly its broken so go to the right of it
and head toward a circle dead end place. In the south of this circle is some
cracked dirt, use Tricky's "find secret" command to unearth a switch. Get
Tricky to stand on the switch opening up a little area. Run over to the
little area and put your staff in the hole where you can.
This will make a platform rise where the lava passage is, making it able to
cross so go back there and climb down the stones. Jump across the platforms
and climb up the stone wall and continue on. There is a cracked wall coming
up, but no fuel barrel around, use Tricky's find secret command to create a
hole in the cracked wall and proceed through it then run on into the Snowhorn
Wastes.
============================ Snowhorn Wastes ==================================
Tasks:
[ ] Get Scarab Bag
[ ] Gain access to cave
[ ] Get to Thorntail Hollow
Welcome to the first area in the game with natural enemies that you can fight
(unlike that pesky Krazoa Palace *shakes fist*). Begin out by heading down as
you kill enemies until you get to a circular area. Destroy the enemies in the
area then talk to the dinosaur, who is apparently very hungry. To get the
dinosaur food you need to unearth in from cracked dirt spots, there are two
that contain food. Go to the bottom left, then the bottom right of the circle
and unearth the cracked dirt there to receive some Alpine Roots. After you
get both Alpine Roots talk to the dinosaur and give them to him. For the
first root he'll give you a new 50-scarab holding scarab bag and the second
time he'll make a block appear.
Push the ice-block east to where the area extends on your map and you should
hear a puzzle solving sound. After you hear the sound climb up ontop of the
block and up onto a path and continue on. Soon you'll be at some cold water;
Slippy will warn you about it, but go right down ignoring it. At the bottom
there are a lot of rocks around, lift them up getting at lease 25 scarabs
then continue on and you should see aguard. Pay him 25 scarabs and you'll
gain access to a cave so do it and go inside the cave (ya! Almost done with
this mission! Or so it seems).
The cave is pretty straightforward, move along killing bats as you go until
you get to the water. At the water jump in and go with the flow, left, then
up, then right onto the other side of the cave and finish the cave off. Soon
you'll see... Sunlight! But wait it's blocked off by a mysterious gate (damn
those nazis!). Anyway the morons put a switch where you can put your staff in
RIGHT NEXT to the gate that opens it up.
============================= Thorntail Hollow ================================
Tasks:
[ ] Get Firefly Lantern
[ ] Enter Well
Once you're back in the Hollow head down the nearby ladder and to the queen.
Once you reach the queen there will be a cut-scene and she'll be very sick.
Tricky will say the only way to save her is to get white grubtubs, so you'll
have to find six of them. Before you go off and get them you'll need to buy a
firefly lantern, get 20 scarabs from under rocks then buy a firefly lantern
from the shop. After you buy the lantern, head north until you see a cracked
wall, use Tricky's "find secret" command to dig a tunnel into a well.
========================== Thorntail Hollow Well ==============================
Tasks:
[ ] Get Staff Boost Upgrade
[ ] Head into lower portion of well
[ ] Collect Six White Grub-Tubs
As you enter the well head down the ladder to a small platform and jump down
to ground level. Go through the nearby tunnel and plant a bomb spore in the
middle of the room where there is the spore dirt (there is a plant if you
need spores in the northern portion of the room). Explode the bomb spore you
planted with your fire-blaster and head down the hole into a staff upgrade
shrine. Like the first one head into the middle and press A to receive an
upgrade, this time it is the staff boost upgrade. After you get the staff
boost upgrade leave the staff upgrade shrine and head back to the first room
of the well via the tunnel. Search for a weird looking thing on the ground
that brings your C-menu up when you go there.
Use your staff boost upgrade on the little pad when you find it and shoot up
to a higher area. From this new high area head into the other room and plant
a bomb spore where you can in the middle of a bridge. After you plant the
spore fire-blast it and a brick will fall down, jump down toward the brick
now and push the brick over to a switch opening a gate. Go through the gate
and talk to a dinosaur, who will move then plant a bomb spore where the
dinosaur was and fire-blast it with your staff creating a passage down deeper
into the well. Head down now into the bottom of the well.
After you reach the ground from climbing down the ladder turn around and
there is a white grub-tub, stun it then capture it. After you capture the
grub-tub head forward until you get to a side passage on the left, go into
the side passage. There should be a staff boost pad, put your staff in it and
boost to the higher area. Grab the white grub-tub and the fireflies then head
down and head left into the darkness. Use a firefly in your lantern to see in
the dark and find a place to plant a bomb spore. After you plant the spore
blow it up with your fire-blaster staff upgrade then head into the new area
and get the white grub-tub (yay! half done), leave the darkness now.
Head forward and there will be some fireflies, get them and head into the
nearby darkness and light your lantern. There will be a grub-tub in the
beginning of the darkness, grab it and head on. Somewhere in the middle next
to a pillar there will be a place to put a bomb spore, plant one then blow it
up making a pillar fall. Leave the darkness now and head to back to the
staff-boost pad and boost up. Jump across the platforms now, get the two last
white grub-tubs and some bomb spores and leave the well back into the Hollow.
============================= Thorntail Hollow ================================
Tasks:
[ ] Feed Queen White Grub-Tubs
[ ] Get Key from Queen
[ ] Head to the SnowHorn Wastes
Now that you have the white grub-tubs head back to the queen. Feed her the
six white grub-tubs and she'll come back to normal and there will be a very
long and boring talk. After the talk is over you will get a key, now head
back to the ladder you came from  the SnowHorn Wastes. Climb the ladder and
enter the cave. Head through the cave  until you get to the water, the
currents are backwards so you can't go anywhere, the only place you can go is
to a platform with a switch on it. Go to the platform and make tricky stand
on the switch, opening a gate. Climb through the gate and down the path and
you'll see a place to put your staff in. After you do this the water currents
will change, go back in the water and head to the other side and finish your
journey through the cave.
============================= Snowhorn Wastes =================================
Tasks:
[ ] Free the Wolly Mammoth
[ ] Head back to the Hollow
As you enter fresh air again head over to the nearby gate and put the key in
and continue on past the gate. Run over to the nearby wolly mammoth stuck in
some ice. He will ask you to get him out and a bar atthe bottom of the screen
will appear. Once this bar is full he will be free from the ice, you must use
Frost Weeds to unfreeze him. Luckily, Frost Weeds grow on a tree a little bit
to the south. You will need to bring the Wolly Mammoth three Frost Weeds to
unfreeze him. This task is not very difficult, simply run down to the tree
three times, hit it with your staff and push the Weed up to the Wolly Mammoth.
Sharpclaws do appear, but they shouldn't be much of a problem.
The Wolly Mammoth will open the gate to the Dark Ice Mines so you can get
back a spellstone that General Scales stole, head back to the cave and then
to Thorntail Hollow.
============================= Thorntail Hollow ================================
Tasks:
[ ] Get the Dark Ice Mines Map (and maybe fuel cells)
[ ] Fly to the Dark Ice Mines
There is not much to here. If you have enough fuel cells to take off the Dark
Ice Mines do so (go up to the Arwing to see if you have enough), but get the
Map of the Mines from the Shopkeeper first. If you do not have enough fuel
cells collect as many scarabs as you can and buy them from the store (also
buy the Dark Ice Mines map) then take off. Flying to the Dark Ice Mines isn't
that difficult. It is just like flying to Dinosaur Planet, but you have to
get three rings. Zoom through any three rings you want; the only problem I
can see happening is if you hit into too many giant asteroids you might die.
============================= Dark Ice Mines ==================================
Tasks:
[ ] Get Tricky's Flame Command
[ ] Brake through the main gate
[ ] Enter the mines via Bike
[ ] Find Tricky and Belima
[ ] Defeat the boss and get the SpellStone
Ah! The Dark Ice Mines. Begin out by running across the elevated ground until
you reach a snowy camp place. Take out the SharpClaw then run to the left
over to a house with a crack in the bottom. Have Tricky use find secret on it
and then crawl through. Take out the SharpClaws then get the Shackle Key from
the box and crawl out of the cave. Run north to a SnowHorn (I will no longer
be calling them Wooly Mammoths) and free them with the Shackle Key. They will
reward you with the Bridge Cog. After you've gotten the Bridge Cog run forward
out of the camp and down the cliff. Run up to a wall with a bunch of gears on
it and insert the Bridge Cog in the middle.
Inserting the Bridge Cog caused the bridge to work, run over to the cliff and
climb up. Run past the bridge and follow the path until you reach some
SharpClaws beating up a poor SnowHorn :(. Destroy the SharpClaws then talk to
the SnowHorn. He will help tricky learn the Flame Command, but he is too
weak/hungry to help you bash the front gate of the mine - you need to bring
him Alpine Roots. Head all the way back to the camp and to the house on the
right that has an ice coating on it. Make Tricky use Flame Command and the
ice will melt allowing you go through. Kill the bat that should be around and
have Tricky Flame Command the sticks burning a hole in the ground.
Jump down into the hole and run to the end where there will be an ice
coating. Have Tricky use Flame Command on it like before then have him use
Find Secret on the weird patch of dirt revealing an Alpine Root. Head back
and push the Ice Block with you, once you reach as far as you can go climb up
on the Ice Block and climb back up to the upper portion of the cave. Exit the
house and leave the camp, cross the bridge, and run straight down a hill. Run
to the right until you reach an ice coating; like past times use Flame
Command on it to melt it. Have tricky use Find Secret on the odd patch of
dirt in the cave revealing another Alpine Root. Head up the hill and over to
the SnowHorn.
Feed the SnowHorn the Alpine Roots and he'll recover. Climb onto of him using
the elevated wooden area and ride him to the gate (straight ahead). Having
him use the Tusk Attack and ride him to another wooden area and dismount.
Head left to yet another ice coating. Use Flame Command on it like previous
times and head though climbing the nearby ladder. Use the Staff Booster on
the pad to get onto a ledge and jump across the platforms into a cave. Head
through the cave and kill the SharpClaw. Take control of the SharpClaw Cannon
and shoot the thing with a giant X and then kill all the enemies that come
out of the house until you see a cutscene where a red barrier disappears. Run
out of the cave now and jump off one of the platforms.
Run north where the Red Barrier disappeared from and enter the cave there.
Open up the chest thing with your staff and get a Bridge Cog, run out of the
cave and into the SharpClaw house. In the middle is another chest, open it
like the last one and get a Second Bridge Cog. One more cog left, where you
shot the X there should be a cliff there, climb it into a new area where it
is snowing. Run up the hill on the left and flame command the ice coating
there. Get the Last Bridge Cog from a chest type thing there and run all the
way back to where the SnowHorn is. Head left to where you destroyed an Ice
Coating and climb up the ladder there. Instead of using the Boost Pad run to
the side and there is a gear board, insert the three Bridge Cogs.
A bridge will appear, jump down and cross it (it is behind you, below the
ladder) and approach a wall with a crack. Have Tricky use Find Secret and
crawl through into a cave. There is a switch on the wall, shoot it with your
Fire-Blaster and a clock starts, and four vents appear. Use Flame Command on
all four vents within the 60 seconds and a door will appear, run through it.
Jump off the cliff and run along the midair path and Flame Command the ice
block. Receive the Dinosaur Horn and leave all the way back to the place
where you destroyed the X. Climb the cliff and run up the hill on the left
and stop in the middle where there is a C Icon. Use your Dinosaur Horn and a
SnowHorn will come.
Climb onto the SnowHorn and head north into the blizzard. Follow the Alpine
Roots until there is a cutscene at the end. Tricky has been captured, but
you're fine. Have the SnowHorn bash the door then dismount and head into the
cave, kill the SharpClaws, and ride the bike into the mines. Run across the
ramp watching out for the fire once you arrive in the mines and kill all the
SharpClaw in the area opening an area with an ice coating (ignore it for
now). In the south of the area is a Staff Boost Pad, run there and boost up
and crawl through a small space in the wall. Run down the path and shoot a
switch that is on a wall making a fire go out. Where the fire went out there
is a chest with a key, get the key and leave and jump down to the area again.
Tricky is located in the northern portion of the area, run across the wooden
circles until you reach his cell; unlock him when you reach it. Smack him
with your staff to wake him up, talk to him, then run to the cave with the
ice coating. Use Flame Command to melt the ice then get the key, leave, and
unlock the SnowHorn in the cell next to Tricky's. Attack her to wake her up
and you will discover she is the GateKeeper's Daughter. She'll blast through
the wall and down into the lower caves, use Find Secret on the side and crawl
through. Shoot the green icicles on the ceiling when you emerge making ice
blocks in the water. Cross them and activate the switch with your staff and
cross back.
Head over to a Staff Boost Pad and boost up then jump onto a block close to
you, then jump to one in the middle, and finally jump to one on the right. On
the one at the right jump onto the ledge at the last moment and push the Ice
Block into the water. Jump down on the ice block and climb on the ledge. Run
down and kill the SharpClaws. Run onto a ramp and ride that down avoiding
fire blasters, then run the rest of the way down. You will meet up with
Belima. Find a ladder behind a pillar and climb it up to the top. Grab a
barrel and run to the top. This is a very hard process, the only advice I can
give you is trust your eye, the barrels come in left to right to left to
right to left order. If they are coming to the left and it's in the middle
move to the left on the next one, it will be in the right.
Once you reach the top find a place where it says "Put Down" put it down, and
then climb up. Activate the Magnet and the barrel will be zapped up, graab
the barrel and run over to a wall at the end of a long bridge. Throw the
barrel making a huge hole in the wall. Activate the switch there and go down
the ladder and go over to a small bridge and cross it. Run into the cave and
activate the switch there. Run out and climb the ladder, run across a small
bridge that should have appeared and climb the ladder. Kill the SharpClaw and
gain control of the cannon. Shoot the X's with the cannon then jump all the
way down and cross the lava on some platforms that appeared and warp to the
boss.
BOSS BATTLE: GALDON
Galdon is not a hard boss at all. When the battle begins he is solid ice,
have Tricky use Flame Command to start the real battle. Run around to the
tail and hit his tail three times with your staff and he'll swallow you. Now
you're in his stomach. Repetitively hit the thing hanging in his stomach
until he spits you out. Now you're at the hardest stage. Avoid all the
attacks and when he is sucking in air shoot a fireball at him with your
Fire-Blaster. He'll eat you again; attack the hanging thing and the battle is
over! He'll spit you out and die. Now that you've got the spellstone fly back
to the planet, fly through one ring (that's a real challenge) and you'll be
there with four life bars now. Cool!

the fire bats and jump across the hole in the floor. There is a place to put

energy re-fillers and go back down. Head across like before until you reach a
cave. Yay! Another Staff Upgrade! Get the Ice Blaster upgrade and leave. Head
back to the room where you used Flame Command and use your Ice Blaster on the
torches. A platform will rise, ride it down underground and run to a room with
some SpellStone holes. Listen to Peppy then put the SpellStone in and leave the
room. Put out the torch to your left and go up the platform.
Climb up a ladder and make all the fire blasters go out with your Ice Blaster
and a door will open. Run back to the ladder, go down and head to the door.

is water. Jump into the water and swim around to the other side. Run along to
Light Foot Village. As you enter kill the SharpClaws and go forward and pay
the machine 60 Scarabs to get entrance to Cape Claw. Run through the maze and
follow up this upwards area until you reach Cape Claw.
============================== Cape Claw ======================================
Oooo... a beach like area ^_^. Head down the ladder and Tricky thinks he saw
something. Head to the left to a waterfall and shoot a red thing behind it
with your Fire Blaster. A bridge will appear, cross it and head into the
water and swim towards the big dinosaur (HighTop). Pay the guard 25 Scarabs
and talk to the HighTop. He has lost his gold bars and needs your help to
find them they are located at:
- Near the ramp you ran up to the HighTop, dig to find it
- In a sandy area with a Thorny wall. Kill the enemy and dig nearby to find
the bar.
- Have Tricky burn the thorn wall with Flame Command and have him dig in the
water and it is there.
- Run to the side where you first came into the water and there is a bar
there, dig it up.

appear, climb it and put your staff in the switch opening a gate. Jump down
and jump across to another platform. Enter the gate and the door will close
behind you. Move the blocks over the vents so that the gas doesn't kill you
within the time limit and a gate will open. Run over to the gate (it's by
where you dug up the 4th Bar) and you will talk to the Queen CloudRunner.
She'll open up the way to the CloudRunner Fortress, but Tricky won't go
because of species rivalry. Anyway, head by to the Hollow and enter the
Arwing. This mission isn't that tough to get to the Fortess. You have to go
through five rings, try to go through the first five you see so you won't
have to worry later on.

time is up. Jump across barrels to improve your time, if you succeed a red
thing will appear above the gate, go back up the ladder and shoot it with your
Fire-Blaster. Head through the gate and kill the SharpClaws. Head up the ramp
and climb down the ladder at the top. Put your staff in the switch and it will
open up the gate. Go to the gate and Scales will put you in prison. Push out
the block and get out of jail.
Walk to the left until you are in a room with a sleeping guard. Walk (not run)
and out of the room (watch out for the water). Run straight and climb down the
ladder to your left. There is an air thing, put the barrel down in the air
thing and step on the button blowing up the room. Slippy will now transport the
SharpClaw Disguise. Use the disguise and head back to the room with the sleeping
guard. Head over to him and he'll go off into a break. Take your staff and put
it in all the switches releasing the animals. One of the dinosaurs will give you
the Power Key, run to the area where you went down the ladder and use your
Fire-Blaster on the thing on the roof. Climb up until you reach the top.

it. Push the CloudRunner logos to open some gates and put out the fire with your
Ice Blaster. Use your Staff Booster to enter one of the gates and get a Light
Gem. Find the crate with a switch and flip it dropping a latter. Put out the
fires with your Ice Blaster and press the left CloudRunner button. Run back and
climb the ladder, get another Light Gem and push the middle Cloud Runner button

stand on the SharpClaw pad to bring the barrel up. Throw the barrel at the wall
to the right opening it up. Kill the SharpClaws and turn on the disguise and
stand on a pad lowering the ladder. Climb the ladder and put your staff in a
switch. Talk to the Queen CloudRunner and jump out to the crate and flip the
switch opening a gate.
Go back to the air thing and grab a fuel barrel. Jump across the air thing and
toss the barrel at the pillar holding the cage the queen is in. She will give
you a CloudRunner Flute to help get her lost babies. They are:
- Where you killed five SharpClaws, it is to your right. Kill the SharpClaw
and use the flute bring it back.
- Where you found the Light Gems, it is around there. Kill the SharpClaws
around it and send it away with the flute.
- Where you used your Staff Booster on the platform. Defeat the SharpClaws
and use the flute to send it away.
- Where you saved the first one, go left of it. Defeat the four SharpClaws
and send it back to the Queen.
Go talk to the queen now, She'll open up a room. Go back to where you saved the
first baby and go under the arch thing. Head down the ladder and walk along the
path and you'll reach the room. Kill the SharpClaws and head right; Flip the
switch making the air go down. Put on your disguise and pick up a fuel barrel
where they are. Go to the air thing and run into a dark room and put on your
lantern and there is a crack. Throw the barrel at the crack and there is a
ladder. Go down the ladder and you'll see Scales. Some SharpClaws will go off
on some bikes with the SpellStone. Head on a bike and destroy them to get the
spell stone and head back to the planet!
============================= ThornTail Hollow ================================
Ok, so now that you're back to ThornTail Hollow, where to? The Ocean Force
Point Temple is your new itinerary. If you check Peppy's map subscreen, you'll
learn that it's located down at Cape Claw. You've been there before, so make
your way down there by yourself.

Tasks:
[ ] Protect LightFoot and collect Fire Gem
[ ] Use SharpClaw disguise to enter caves behind Krazoa head
[ ] Open the mouth of the giant Krazoa head
[ ] Navigate through the catacombs and locate the Ocean Force Point Temple
When you arrive, follow the path down towards the beach on the right side of
the cape. You'll find a helpless LightFoot getting his butt beat by a few
SharpClaws. Of course, you'll need to intervene and take down General Scales's
advocates. Talk to the LightFoot after the battle and he'll express his
gratitude (or lack thereof) to you. You'll also receive a pretty little jewel
called the Fire Gem. Nifty.
Run over to the giant Krazoa head in the middle of the cape. Just past it, over
the opposite side of the beach, is a set of wooden platforms. Climb up the
ladder that you'll find over here and hop over to the left. That SharpClaw
