0.1 - Intro
-------------------------------------------------
Introduction: Jo, and welcome to my (first)
walkthrough. I don't know exactly why I would want
to start one...but hey, I just felt like it.
I like this game a lot. So, I wanted to make it
easy for you so you dont get frusterated and give
up :( But it all depends on who you are and how you
take it. I like a little humor in my guides...it
makes them more manageable. If you don't like it,
tough. Don't complain. Go somewhere else and read
someone else's walkthrough. Enough chatting then,
let's get walkthrough-ing.
Oh and sorry if the text looks strange.
Formatting it for gameFAQs is pretty hard. I'll
get it fixed later. I PROMISE!!
---------------------------------------------------
0.2 - Versions

---------------------------------------------------
0.3 - Contact Info and Such
---------------------------------------------------
If you have any tips, suggestions, missions,
compliments, secrets, and anything NICE, please
send it to:
black_mamba17@hotmail.com
I also might not answer you for a couple days,
but don't worry...I'll try to get to you as soon as
I can. I will NOT answer your email if you use a lot of
profanity, tell me mean things, tell me HOW to play
the game, or use really really bad grammar and
spelling. I will not tolerate flaming. That's it.
Common courtesy. I will really try to make
this guide the best it can be...so please bear
with me, and contsructive critism would be good.

0.4 - Legal Crap
----------------------------------------------------
You're not allowed to take any section of my
walkthrough and put it on your site or someone
else's site without first consulting me. You CAN
print it out and use it so you don't have to sit
at your computer all day! :)
The only website allowed to use this is
www.neoseeker.com
If I find it anywhere else....I don't even wanna
think about it.
Reproduction of this Walkthrough in any way other than
personal use is strictly prohibited. All characters,

=====================================================
1.0 - Controls
=====================================================
Okay finally we've started!
So here are our basic controls:
+ pad to move in the direction you press
A to select things when they have an arrow over them,
talk to someone or select an option.
B to run. Be careful...in one mission you're not
allowed to run :(
X and Y to scroll through the menu on the bottom of
the screen
L to hide the needs bar...but I never do
R to change the colour of an object when it's selected.
Not all object's colours can be changed.
Start to pause, so you can itch that spot on your
forehead. Yeah...
Select takes you right to the options menu. Where you
can save! Save often!
Use the stylus to select things on the bottom screen.
You play minigames such as Doctor max Stat!,
MooGoo Monkey, The Pet Show, and Gene Splicer.
You can also check your missions, acess your pockets
and see a map of the world. How cool is that?
=======================================================
1.1 - Characters

comment I have made.

come to Miniopolis to check out the scene and steal some
good ideas.
Kris Thistle - Kris is a smart and sassy dreamer,
currently working as King Tower's lead custodian.
Luthor L. Bigbucks - Luthor is the handsome, talented,
arrogant son of Daddy Bigbucks. Easy to hate, but
impossible to ignore. (Leader of the Richies)
Ephram Earl - Driven to near madness by almost two
centuries of lonely wanderings, Ephram is a ghost looking
for some rest.
Ewan Watahmee - Ewan is a builder for whom every
project, no matter how minor, is an easy
opportunity for artistic enlightenment.

boss. Just where he's disappeared to, no one can say.
Misty Waters - One - time lifeguard (from The Sims
Bustin Out), Misty Waters is now a fitness guru and
the manager of King Tower's state-of-the-art fitness
center.
Cannonball Coleman - There is no sweeter sound than
Mr. Coleman's sax playing. He's an artist, through
and through.

person as talented, fearless, and crazy as this local
carnie, Roxanna Moxie. (Leader of the Artsies)
Maximillian Moore - Dr. moore is the handsome
hypochondriac in charge of Miniopolis University's
medical center. Approach with gloves.

Pritchard Locksley - Pritchard (what a nice name ;) is
an actor temporarily waiting tables at a resturaunt
outside Miniopolis. Or is it the other way around?
Sharona Faster - Sharona hasn't got time to waste,

to say and make it snappy.

partner. She means well but is a terrible
judge of character.

things her mother and step-father never taught her...like
how to work.

wisdom to share with the aimless traveller in times of
great confusion.
Bayou Boo - Boo is one of your strong silent types -
a gentleman with a mind running riot with fanciful ideas.

pundit, Polly Nomial is geeky, pretentious, and nauseatingly
(not) brilliant. (leader of the Nerdies)
Crawdad Clem - Clem is the more talkative of the two
bayou brothers, though they share an insatiable
thirst for invention.
Gramma Hattie - Outspoken firebrand and social activist,
Gramma Hattie gets more done in a day than you could
in three lives.
Busta Cruz - (My favourite person if you've ever seen SLC
Punk ;) Busta is from a strange land just across
the pond from Miniopolis. He's busy doing nothing much.
Sue Pirnova - (Awesome name!) Sue Pirnova is a college
student struggling to find her path. This year
she's majoring in physics. What will next year bring?
Dusty Hogg - Dusty has a mean streak much longer than his
patience, but if you can prove you're tough, he just might
like you.
Dr. Mauricio Keys / Mokey (You'll see) - Mokey has a strange
way about him, a confidence you can't quite put your finger on.
And he's pretty cool too.
Giuseppi Mezzoalto - Since moving here from SimValley (and
getting out of jail, if you've played Bustin Out),
Giuseppi has ditched his black-market dealings.
Now he's just a shady guy.
Jack I. Deal - Is he Mister Right? Or mister Not-Now-Not-Ever?
Yes, okay, Jack is full of himself...but so is ice.
(I dont get it:()
Lincoln Broadsheet - (He suprised me...) If there is a
conspiracy to unearth, you can bet local journalist
Boradsheet with (that's how
it was in the game's description. Maybe they
meant will???) be there, shovel in hand.
Pheobe Twiddle - Erstwhile SimValley knick-nack maven (meaning
she used to work in Nikki Knack's Bric 'a' Brack in Sims Bustin
Out. You'd understand a lot more if you played it! ;)
Pheobe Twiddle has come to Miniopolis to ply her trade
and sell her awesome junk.
Cynthia Braintrust - Cynthia is one of the warmest and most
softspoken people around, but she usually reserves
kindness for animals.
Daddy Bigbucks - Most people simply call him Daddy B. it's
the only reistance against this miser and his money.
Futo Maki - Stern but affable, the multi-talented Futo Maki
is one of the city's legendary luminaries.
Gary Geezer - Gary's a kind old gentleman, but just a touch
hard of hearing. Speak up when you talk to him or he'll miss
the gist completely.
Olde Salty - (He has an action figure! ^_^) Sunshine, open
ocean and briny saltwater have warped dear Olde Salty
into a confused and crazy ex-captain.
Berkeley Clodd - If you think Berkely is the model of human
honesty and decency, he's got some swamp land to sell you.
That's everyone!!
============================================================
1.2 - Conversation Likes
============================================================
When talking to someone, you'll find that Crystal may like
Aliens, but Gramma Hattie thinks its stupid. So, to save you
the frusteration of five failed conversations, I have supplied
you with a list of what the people like! If an option on
the topics you can talk about isn't one they like, just go to
Friendly Options (or something) and then back again.
Voila! The topics change! Also, this list shows things
that they react with plus signs to. If no change occurs,
it is not on this list. DO NOT send in items that people
do not react to!!
*NOTE* This part is going to take a while to complete. Bear
with me, and if you have any more, send them in! Don't be shy!

And that's that!!
===========================================================
1.4 - Rep Groups
===========================================================
A basic description of the groups. If you feel the urge
to have more information, look at the FAQ on
neoseeker titled Rep Groups.
It will tell you EVERYTHING.
Richies - My group! LOL, a bunch of rich kids who get
their kicks...being rich. Hangs out a lot in Glasstown
and Paradise Island. Because, you know, we can afford
that kind of thing. Rivals to the Streeties. Leader
is Luthor L. Bigbucks. And no, Daddy Bigbucks is not
a Richie.
Streeties - A bunch of kids who say "yo" and "dawg." They
like to hang around Urbania. Rivals the Richies. Leader is
Darius.
Nerdies - Computer hacking, 1337 masters. Although, they
could all use a makeover. Originally I was in this group
then my batteries died and I hadn't saved. Leader is
Polly Nomial. Rivals are the Artsies.
Artsies - A bunch of wandering, bright eyed daydreamers
with their own agenda. Live on SimQuarter and they'll
like you! Roxie Moxie (girl with flashy outfit!) is their
leader. Rivals the Nerdies
HOLY CRAP! WE'RE FINALLY STARTING THE WALKTHROUGH!!!!!
EXCITING!!
____________________________________________________________
2.0 - Notes About the First Mission
____________________________________________________________
You take your first little baby steps, and finally
see the world...err I mean, King Tower. You start
out as a humble, unknown janitor, wanting to find fame
and sucess!! Well, here starts your adventure, and what
a humble beginning! Squeegeeing bird poo off windows
and picking locks to other people's offices...
:sigh: You gotta start somewhere. I suggest working
out so you have at least 4 body points in the basement (after
you play Squeegee Clean, of course) and get at least 2
promotions in Squeegee Clean. But hey, that's just me.
But trust me, it'll come in handy later. Also, try and get the
best relationship with Misty Waters, Lily Gates and Kris
Thistle, the only people in the building that you can
talk with. It'll make life easier.
Also, the missions do not nessecarily have to be done
in the exact order that I have put them in. Whenever
you get the mission is whenever you can complete it.
Unless it says otherwise, do the missions at your
own pace and in any order.
But now...
ONWARDS!
____________________________________________________________
2.1 - "Slave to the Grind"
____________________________________________________________
You're kicking back on a bench, and out of the elevator,
this girl comes up to you and tells you to get back to
work! :GASP!: I would tell her you were getting on it,
but if you're feeling saucy tell her you're on break.
Oh by the way this girl is Kris Thistle. When you exit
dialouge with her, a box will pop up
informing you that you have a new mission. So look
at the bottom of your screen, press the bullseye logo and
press Mission 1.
You will see:
SLAVE TO THE GRIND
-Play Squeegee Clean
-Befriend Kris Thistle (Rel 30)
-Give Kris your Squeegee and Bucket
Actually, you'll only see the Squeegee Clean option
right now, so walk over to the Simoleon sign and press
A. Read the instructions on how to play and scrape that
nasty crap away!
Next talk to Kris and she will tell you you're FIRED!
Oh NOE! Say whatever you'd like here. It doesn't change
the outcome of the game at all. Then keep talking to her
(You might have to enter dialogue with her again by
pressing a) and get your relationship up to thirty.
To give her your squeegee and bucket, press the yellow
icon at the bottom of the selections and do give a gift.
Double tap the Squeegee and Bucket, and that mission
is complete!
You will get a new mission, which is....
_____________________________________________________________
2.2 - "Get Cleaned Up"
_____________________________________________________________
GET CLEANED UP
-Take a shower
-Take a nap
-Eat something from the vending machine
Go to the elevator and select fourth floor. WOAH!
This place is a mess! Don't worry, it'll be prettier
and you can buy it later. But for now, go to the
shower (tall white thing) and select TAKE A SHOWER!
Next, go to that ratty old brown couch and dare
to lay down on it to sleep. Any amount of time spen
sleeping is okay. I would satisy the whole energy
and comfort need. After that, head to the Lobby
(floor 1) and hit up the vending machines, and they'll
spew out free food! Might take a while to fully satisfy
your hunger need, but it'll be okay.
Talk to Kris because this mission is DONE!
SAVE!!!!
Next!
____________________________________________________________
2.3 - "Help Kris Thistle"
____________________________________________________________
HELP KRIS THISTLE
-Move the bed to the suite (*snicker*)
-Repair the TV
-Repair TWO drinking fountains
Go to the second floor and find the bed on the left side of
the building. Not in Lily's office... Select "Put in
Pocket" and head back up the elevator to your "suite." Hah hah.
If you feel the need to interior decorate with almost
any object, press the R trigger when the yellow arrow
is over the object to change it's colour. Pretty
nifty, eh? Go back to that second floor and select
the TV. Select Repair, and once it's fixed, talk to
that crazy boy Harlan King. Anything you say is fine.
Now about those drinking fountains. To know if they're
broken or not, select them and select "Repair."
Then wait while your Urb fixes it.
SAVE!!!!!!
With that done go talk to Kris and....
___________________________________________________________
2.4 - "Get the Key"
___________________________________________________________
GET THE KEY
-Earn One Mechanical Skill Point
-Pick the lock to Lily Gate's office
-Find the key
Kris has bad news. Very bad in fact. Turns out you're
not going to see Glasstown this early. Well, she
locked us out of the building! So, pump up your
mechanical skill to one measly point
(you can't do anymore than that) and go over to the
door that is now closed on that same second floor.
When there is a big yellow arrow over it, select
pick lock and wait for your Urb to pick it. Now
you're in. Great! Let's go over to all the stuff. If
something has a big yellow arrow over it at ANYTIME,
press A! You might find Xizzle beads, money, or recyclables.
But in this case, we're heading over to the desk
and pressing A. You found the key! (Da-nah-
nah-nah!! :from Zelda...:)
But before you can go anywhere, a big man comes in and yells
at you! :( This man is actually Daddy Bigbucks, and he owns
this building, remember the conversation with Harlan
King?? Another man comes in, and he arrests you!
This is Det. Dan D. Mann. You get
tossed in jail! Ono!
SAVE!!!!
So now you have to....
___________________________________________________________
2.5 - "Get out of Jail"
___________________________________________________________
GET OUT OF JAIL (FREE~! ^_^)
-Befriend Detective Dan (Rel 30)
-Answer Detective Dan's Questions
Well, in this here jail cell, you have everything
you need to fill your (probably low) motives. So do that,
and talk to Detective Dan.
-(Any choice is fine)
-The janitor told me I could stay
-Real food, I was tired of eating junk
-No, he is finding legal ways of making people
miserable
-(Anything)
After he finally backs off with the questions, now
you get to barrage him with conversation!
So talk a lot about crime, law and jail if possible,
until you are at 30 with him. Since he's such
a nice guy, he'll let you out fo jail. Aww...
SAVE!!!!
But he told us to...
___________________________________________________________
2.6 - "Find a Place to Live"
___________________________________________________________
FIND A PLACE TO LIVE
-Play the Hoopz Minigame
-Earn $150 for Rent and Taxes
-Buy a house
First things first. If you see ANY TRASH at all,
SAVE IT!!! If you want to beat the entire game 100%, do
save your trash and DO NOT recycle it. It will stop appearing
around day 100, thus leaving you trashless. Onwards...
Since you've played the Squeegee game about three
times you should have automatically completed goal number
two. If not, no worries. Money is easy in this game! So
once out of jail with your motives maxed, Head to your
left and up those stairs. Play the game. What you have
to do is line up the hole and the ball
right in the middle (the green zone). In the
first two levels, you don't have to get them exactly
straight to get money. But from the third on up,
it's perfect or nothing. You should get a promotion if
you got some body points and a good score, if not, no
worries there either. Head back down the stairs
when you're done (pick up the trash if
there's any on the court, BUT SAVE IT!!! :goes rabid:)
and head outside to: URBANIA! Your final goal, buying
a house, is easier than a lot in this game...so pick
either Small Brownstone (to the right of the lady on
newspapers) or the Large Brownstone (to the left of
the lady). Read section 1.3 for more about this.
And now we get to start the second set of missions.
SAVE!!!!
Yay!
____________________________________________________________
3.0 - "Work Study"
____________________________________________________________
WORK STUDY
- Befriend Maximillian Moore (Rel 30)
- Give The Artemisia Plant To Max
- Write a Doctoral Thesis
Sue Pirnova (girl with red scarf on her head)
should have an exclamation point over her head.
Wonder why? Talk to her and she'll blabber about
class. "Oops, you don't go to my school!"
But you want to, right? Answer her questions
any way you like. Nothing will die if youre a
cynic. She will tell you to go talk to Doctor
Max (man with afro) and see if he can get you in.
So head over to the hospital (building with
red cross on it) and check if Max is there.
If not, he usually is outside the hospital,
and if you just can't find him, give him a call.
Buddy up to him and get it up to 30. I would get it all
the way up to 100 for later missions concerning popularity,
but its your desicion. Anyway, he will tell you about the
artemisia plant that grows in damp, dark regions. He
also tells you to write a doctoral thesis. So,
either go to the Chronicle (just south of the Hospital,
by the roadblocks) or go over to the dumpster with
the graffiti on it that you can "Critique"
At the chronicle, head upstairs and choose write a thesis on
the computer. If it says you have writer's block,
do research. You gain Logic points for this, and
it'll cure your writer's block. Also, try working
on your creativity by critiquing the dumpster.
You'll need this for the next mission, anyway.
At the dumpster
is a tangled mass of...something. That
something is the plant. You will have a skill point bar over
your head that's decreasing as time passes. Quickly - to
the hospital! Deliver it to Doctor Max and the thesis also, and
the mission will be done. You can attend the University next door
at any time to gain skill points easily. The only points you
can gain, unfortunatley are Mechanical, Logic, Creativity and Cooking.
Still, it's an easy way to make skills. The game you
unlock, Dr. Max Stat! is pretty fun, but HARD. Your brain has to
like look for patterns and react in 90 seconds. The more
you get done in 90 seconds, the more money. Kaching!
SAVE!!!!!!
With that done we have to....
____________________________________________________________
3.1 - "Gotta Finish The Riff"
____________________________________________________________
GOTTA FINISH THE RIFF
- Befriend Cannonball Coleman (Rel 30)
- Give 1 saxaphone reed to Cannonball
Coleman
- Earn Creativity 1
- Finish Cannonball's Song
Go find Phoebe Twiddle. She will tell
you that Cannonball Coleman is depressed.
That's so sad...what can we do to help? Well,
first let's be friends with the guy. He's
the guy always wandering around with a
saxaphone and wearing a green hat. So we'll
talk about music and art. When he's at
thirty, go to the Second Looks Thrift Store
and buy the Saxaphone Reed. Give it to him
and he'll feel like bursting out in song.
He invites you to join him but you're
not up to the street chat! Go to the dumpster
where you found the Artemisia plant and
critique the graffiti sprayed there just
for that purpose. When the skill is earned,
go back to Coleman and finish his song!
Choose:
"...up to old tricks?"

RACE FOR GLORY
- Give Dusty $500 for Renovations
- Talk to Ewan Watahmee
- Bring Ewan Lunch for 3 Days (12-1 PM)
First, go find Dusty Hoog, the big biker man
with the du rag. He
will tell you about a race he wants you to
join. So give the man 500 bucks and go in his shop to check if
Ewan is there. If he
isn't there try the street leading to the jail.
Chat with Ewan and he'll tell you to bring you his lunch
for three days from
12-1 PM. What are you, some kind of lunch
person? Gosh. Anyway, just buy a corn dog or something from
Slice o' Life (the
stairway leading down with the big neon pizza
sign above it) and bring that to him between those hours.
After you bring him
lunch the third day, you'll be able to race bikes
from 9 AM - 6 PM! Get good upgrades for your bike by
shopping from the NPC guy.
Make sure that your bike goes fast and you'll
be able to win the game a lot.

Sound familiar, my Bustin Out people? Well
it is, because you have
to win the shrunken head at an auction!
Yay!
Before I get too ahead of myself, talk to
Berkeley Clodd. He is the
guy with the feather in his hat and weird
glasses. He looks like the more attractive form of Dracula
in Dracula....
So, at 5 PM, go to second looks thrift store
and bid like crazy on
the head. Make sure your bet is higher than
everyone elses. Afterwards, track down Berkely and
give it to him. He, in turn,
gives you a skateboard - with no wheels!
But it hovers, and it looks rather attractive in
the house. That's where I
kept mine. It's pretty hard to control, but

talk to Crystal between those
really good hours with 100 simoleons in
your pockets and talk to her. Take her out on the town! Go
first to Slice o Life and
talk to her once inside. She'll tell you
to buy her some food, so walk over and get her something.
Give it to her via the Friendly
Actions/Give a Gift. Now she wants to play
some games. Hop over to the DDR (Dance Dance
Revolution, a really fun game. What
the urbz are playing is exactly like it

cool moves! Crystal will play with
you, and once you guys are done boogie-ing,
then talk to Crystal once more. She'll claim
to be exhausted and want to go
shopping. Take her to second looks thrift
store and talk to her. She will ask for a "gift from

in the purple dress always
walking around. She'll go on about protesting
against Daddy Bigbucks, and how you can help. First
you need three friends. If
you got a good relationship (above 50) with
three people, then the three friends goal is done.
Next you have to give her
$500. If you don't have the money, play some
games. Getting the promotions are easy. Logic for Dr.

MISSION FOR THE MANN
- Play Moogoo Monkey
- Folllow the directions on the bulletin board
- Give the "Mysterious Briefcase" to Det. Dan
- Give the "Rigged Briefcase" to Giuseppi
Talk to Det. Dan to start this mission.
He will tell you about Moogoo
Monkey and illegal activities he thinks
are going on down there. So now you get to play Moogoo
Monkey! Head over to the
Riverboat and go over to the simoleon sign.
What you have to do is put bets on a monkey, then put high
cards on that one, while
you trash others with pitiful 1' and 2's.
I would spread your bets around so that almost every
monkey has some stuff on
it to make sure you get at let what you put
down. Once you're done there, Giuseppi Mezzoalto
should come up to you and tell
you to go check out the bulletin board.
Head over to the Chronicle and follow the instructions left
to your name. Now, go to
the museum in SimQuarter, but don't go in.
Scout around outside the bushes and find the slip of paper
that says: "The answers
you seek lie beyon the grave." A grave
belongs in a...GRAVEYARD! Okay now listen: If you haven't
beat the mission "None
Shall Pass" then you can't go into the graveyard
until you beat it. So if you haven't let's stop here
and come back after you
have. If the graveyard is open, check all the
graves until you find yet another slip of paper
saying something about a guy
with a feather in his hat. And who could that
be but Berkeley Clodd! Excellent. He'll hand you a
briefcase, and you get to
run it to Det. Dan. Just make sure Berkeley
doesn't know you're working for the cops. Dan will rig
the briefcase, and then
you must give it to Giuseppi. Once again, make
sure he doesn't know you're working for the cops!

_______________________________________________________________
DADDY BIGBUCKS AND THE XIZZLE FACTORY
- Earn creativity 5
- Convince Ewan to Fix the Factory (Rel 50)
- Challenge and beat Dusty Hogg
- Convince Polly to help at the factory
First, go find Lily Gates and have a chat
with her. She's usually
on the dock by the Riverboat. She will tell
you Daddy B is going to shut down the Xizzle Factory, which
caught fire a while
ago, and she wants you to help save it! The
first goal is creativity 5. So head to the University and
check when he teaches
Creativity. Come back every day and build
your creativity skill. Once that's done, go talk to Ewan.
Earn a 50 Relationship
score with him and he'll fix the factory....
if you beat Dusty Hogg in a race!  I would get your
relationship score with
Ewan up to 100 for now. You'll thank me later.
At 6 PM, go down to the bike shop and ride against the
Dusty Hogg.
I had the micro chassis, street suspension,
zipper engine, large
nitrous tank and racing tires. I won easily.
Just make sure that you don't acellerate all the time because
some bumps will
throw you off your bike if you do. Once you win,
Dusty will give you his bike (sore loser, eh? Guess that
was his last racing
day) and tell you that Polly Nomial would help
at the factory. Call her and see where she is, then get
your
relationship to 50. I would get it to 100, but
that's just me.
And that mission's over!

_______________________________________________________________
NONE SHALL PASS
- Earn Body 5 OR Charisma 5
- Meet at the cemetary between 11PM and 12AM
- Guard the cemetary for four hours
Talk to Gramma Hattie. She will tell you about a
meeting she's
having, revolting against Daddy B. But you're not
on the guestlist, you get to be the bouncer!
If you worked out in the basement of the
King Tower like I told
you, then you've only got one more point
to go! So get that point and you've gotten
that one. If you
haven't worked out at
all, then go buy a mirror and practice your
charisma. Charisma and logic are important
in being promoted in
Moogoo Monkey, and
if you get the highest promotion you can get
a lot of Rep with the Richies. (Details on
that in the Rep
mission section)
So either one is fine for this mission. At
11PM,
head over to the graveyard. Gramma Hattie
will come up and
talk some more,
then leave you to guard the place. Daddy B
will
show up. Say whatever you'd like to him, and
he'll go away.
Darius then shows
up. And we thought he was a nice guy! :(
Tell him:
"...I can deflect sunlight with my breath!"
"...people call me ______!" (Option 2)
"...Det. Dan kicked me out of jail!"
Darius will leave, and you'll win the mission. Now
you can access
the cemetary whenever you'd like!

After that, find Pritchard Locksley and he
will sell you
a fake beard for
$300. Buy the white one, and that goal is
done too!
Now go over to the Coffee shop and order the
Sailor's
Cap from SimBay Online.
It'll take about 2 days to get to your house,

THE GREATEST FEAR
- Prove to Clem you Aren't a Vampire (Rel 30)
- Find the "Dark Tree"
- Find a light
- Capture the Albino Alligator
When you wake up, there are two people
standing
over you! Wonder
how long they've been standing there. The
one, Clem,
accuses you of being a vampire. Silly
humans. Don't they
know that we only
like night hours....? Muhahahah! Don't
worry I'm not
a vampire. So, when Clem asks you what you
like to eat,
say "Garlic
Ice Cream," "A sunbath on the beach" and
"a Gnat."
The rest is all up to you. Say whatever.
Clem will be convinced
that you're
not a vampire. Go to the right after your
coversation,
and you will stumble upon a giant person
eating plant! If it
has you in
it's grasp, tap B repeatedly to get away.
Now it can't get you! If there
were items behind it, you can get them
now! Keep
going, and cross the planks to get to the
other little islands. Adventure
around a bit until you find a large
stump, and go
North of it. There is the big Dark Tree!
But the big huge Daddy B hologram
will make you pass out, so leave
for now and
get past a man eating plant to find the
glowstick.
Go back to the dark tree and now you're
not afraid of the
hologram! Talk to
the albino Alligator and tell him people
aren't so bad!

Clem won't beleive you when you tell him
you met the
Alligator, so he
sends you on yet another quest : to find
the Red Man and fiddle against him!!
Refresh your motives at the small
swamp
house, and at midnight, head over to the
stump by the dark tree and play
against the Red Man. You have to press the
arrows he
does at the exact same time he had pressed
it when it comes to be your
turn, so play carefully. Otherwise, this
game is
quite fun and easy.

Awww....now we have to leave the Bayou.
Go to Clem and show
him the
locket. He will tell you to show that to Boo,
who will lead you out of the
swamp. Boo should be at the Masoleum
entrance - if
you've wandered around the bayou a lot you'll
know where to find it. Show
Boo the locket and he will agree to
lead you out.
Walk through the masoleum, it's not that hard,
because it's not  a maze
or anything. Boo will be captured by
the clock,
so you must continue alone. Once you're out,
go to the right and follow
the arrows on various buildings. Gramma
Hattie will
tell you that people have opened Glasstown up,
but lots of other
have changed too. Afterwards, she will
walk through
a masoleum and out where the Daddy B statue was.
Run out and go anywhere.
You will get busted for RUNNING. Running
is now
illegal - DO NOT RUN! You will get arrested
every time you run for about
10 seconds. Use your newly acquired motorcycle
and
get around. It's a heck of a lot easier than
walking.

Always walk in this mission, because, as I said,
RUNNING IS ILLEGAL!
So, don't run. Ride your motorcycle or skateboard if
you're good at it. Anyway, when you're in jail, talk
to Det. Dan to trigger the mission. Afterwards, talk
to Gramma Hattie. She will agree to write your letter.
As for your messenger, once you get out of jail,
go to the University and talk to Gordie Puck, the boy
who's always sleeping. He'll delvier your letter -
- BUT!
You have to gain popularity 30! If you got up to
100 relationship with people you were only supposed
to get 50 or 30 with, then you should have this done.
If not, then talk to everyone and get them past 75%.
Why 75%? You get Xizzle beads, that's why! After you
are super popular, go to the Riverboat and go up all
the stairs. On the top deck, go into the small
room just a bit beyond the stairs. It appears to be
a small black
box with some grey things in it. Go in there, and up the
ladder.
The map is on the floor on theother side of that teeny
room. Go back to Gordie and talk to him. Then give
him the map.
That is
all the communication you'll be doing with Gordie. Ever.
Go talk to Det. Dan and now you can run again!!!!! You
also get a
fan boat that breaks the boundaries between you and
water. ^_^

walker and a dancing pet of some sort. First,
SAVE YOUR GAME.
My game glitched when I went to get on the fan
boat, and I
had to start all over from mission 3 because I
HADN'T SAVED!!
:( That's about two hours worth of playing I
lost. So
now you know why I urge you to save after every
mission. Okay,
get on thefanboat and head southwards. You
hould come to a
dock after a little while, get off on it and
find the dancing
rodent thing. It'll kind of boogie then jump
back into the
ground, come up and boogie again. So grab it
and bring it back
to Roxie. An easy way to get back to the dock
is to go through
the hole in those lifeguard ropes just
northeast of where you
are. Head back to Roxie and give her the
dancing Nutria and your
$500. Three goalsdone! Now we night a tightrope
walker...hmm
...who's in good enough shape and is attractive
enough to
be a tightrope walker...I know, Misty Waters!
So go talk to
her and she'll agree to do it IF you find her

Daddy B. It will make a total fool of him.
Awesome.
So first, we have to convince Dusty Hogg
and Sue Pirnova
to play our main characters : Daddy B and
Lily Gates.
I'd get the relationship with both up to

by faster. Once they're convinced, buy five
decorative items and place
them on the stage. Great, now the stage is
decorated! Now for that
