Ratchet and Clank blast from planet to planet, exploring new planets, and using
weapons and gadgets to get past certain missions and stop Ultimate Supreme
Executive Chairman Drek from doing... well youíll just have to see as you go
through the game!
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
5: Walkthrough
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
This is where I explain the aspects of and how to get through this game, with
all bosses included.
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
5a: Planet Veldin
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
Find out what happened
Once youíre in control of Ratchet, move forward to the Hoppers. Whack each one
with your wrench, and the boxes to. The boxes provide bolts, which you spend on
many different things. Jump up on to the rock and whack Hoppers and boxes. Cross
the bridge and kill the Hoppers. I will no longer tell you to get boxes or
bolts, as you should accustom to that soon. Jump on the ledges in front of you
and kill the Hoppers. You will see two paths; take the right one first, as it
will give you more bolts, than go to the left path. You will than encounter a
new enemy and I will refer to these as Tesla-with-a-circle-on-end-of-zap Robots
Kill them with your wrench, or your Bomb Glove. Keep going, killing and killing,
until you find a crash-landing. Watch the cut scene, and crash into a new
planet, Planet Novalis.
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
5b: Planet Novalis
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
From where you crashed, go behind your ship and through the water. Then go in
the tunnel. Screw in the screws you find with your wrench. NOTE: If you are
attacked by anything, you have to start again. Eventually, you will find a room
with a big pool divided in to sections, and you will be in a cavern type room.
(Want a Gold Bolt? Read on!) There will be a darker section of rock. Blow it up
with your Bomb Glove. Go inside and find a Gold Bot (This rare form of currency
is used in conjunction with regular bolts to buy Golden Weapons. You canít yet,
though. Iíll tell you when you can.) (End Gold Bolt Info)
Explore the waterworks
Get out of the cavern, and go in to the place where there are rocks for
platforms. Stop and LET THE ROCKS FALL! Then you will see moving yellow
platforms that go up and down over and over again. Jump on the first one when
itís down low, than the second one when itís at your level, then onto the ledge
when youíre at the highest point to continue.
(Want a Gold Bolt? Read on!) Where there are those stairs, donít climb them.
Here is a better idea. Wall jump the walls near the start of the stairs to find
another Gold Bolt. (End Gold Bot Info)
Now climb the stairs to find your pathway chopped in half! Nothing to worry
about, kill the yellow robots that shoot you (they suck at shooting, as they
continuously shoot in the one spot for some time, then they move), then jump
over the river, if you fall in, you will go back to the beginning. If you made
it, go to the room with two, yes TWO streams of water. But if you fall in
(ëcause you have to), you have to go to the stairs on either side of each
stream. Once your n the other side of the two streams, you will meet a plumber,
and a cut scene will take over.
Buy Infobot from mechanic
Then buy the Infobot for Planet Aridia for 500 bolts (you do HAVE 500 bolts,
right? You should), and watch another cut scene. Then go where the plumber went:
DOWN THE SEWER PIPE! Donít worry, thereís no disgusting stuff in here. If you
have the moolah (moolah means money, which means bolts, you know), go to the
Gadgetron Vendor. There is at least one in every level, and buy your self at
2500 bolts, the Pyrocitor! (For details about all the weapons and gadgets in the
game, go to the Weapons section or the Gadgets section of this guide.
Find a new ship
Go down the yellow elevator (everything in this level seems to be yellow) and
attack everything you can. If you bought the Pyrocitor, practise using it.
(MMMMMM, orange coloured flame.) When you see an old house, there will be a
yellow robot shooting. Kill it, and climb the stairs. Go right and a big...
watch the cut scene. Go and kill those no good robots and continue over the
bridge. Kill the yellow birds (there were some before that I forgot to mention)
and whack away with the wrench! Then youíll see a ship come down, but donít get
your hopes up; you wonít be taking THAT ship, no way! Kill the robots and a cut
scene will be issued. The old man gives you a courier ship, and coordinates to
yet another planet. But hey, any one that generous to lend you something that
big can be described as kind, giving, and crazy. Well, weíre done here, lets go
to Planet Aridia!
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
5c: Planet Aridia
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
Locate Skid McMarx
Go behind your ship and itís done. Watch the cut scene, and do what he says.
Help Skid get to his ship
Kill all the Sandsharks. The Pyrocitor is good here, so get it out if you have
it, and buy it if you donít. There are also these yellow things (not another
planet filled with yellow!) that spew out Sandsharks as you kill Sandsharks! So
get rid of the yellow things first, and I will now call them yellow things
re-generators. Also, check the top of that hill in the middle, thereís two
regenerators up there. Once youíre done (make sure you check everywhere where
the music doesnít change), to receive a Hoverboard!
(Want a Gold Bolt? Read on!) From Skidís location cross the metal bridge, and
stay right. Keep walking until you reach another bridge. Cross that bridge and
another bridge to see a boulder like the one in Novalis. Blow it to smithereens
and collect your Gold Bot (End Gold Bolt Info)
Find Skidís Agent
From your ship, go left and over the mud. If you try and jump out of the mud
three times with out success (three jumps, that is) you will fall in totally.
Kill the Sandsharks and the Pyrocitor robots. Kill the robots by Hyper Striking
them (remember... [X] then [Square]...) and the Sandsharks with your Pyrocitor.
At some point you will see a purple elevator. Go up it. Ignore the green circles
in the air and go right just keep killing and smashing and bashing; you get the
idea, and stop at the elevator. Go down the elevator and keep doing your job (of
killing, smash... you know, the idea) and jump up to the wall with hands on it.
Jump again and do the same thing to the next wall. On the last wall, jump up to
the hands, move right and jump on to the platform when you can. Then you will
find Skidís agent. Let the cut scene tell you what he wants from you, then go
back to your ship via the blue cylinder and go to Planet Kerwan!
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
5d: Planet Kerwan
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
Visit Alís Roboshack
First, go to the Gadgetron Vendor. If you have yet another 2500 bolts in your
pocket, you can get the Blaster. Similar to a real pistol, the Blaster shoots
out bullets like a pistol, and has the same range as a pistol. The only
difference is real pistols (I mean Grand Theft Auto pistols, not water pistols)
shoot out metal bullets, while the Blaster shoots out... well who cares anyway?
Go right from the vendor and use your trusty Blaster (or some other weapon; itís
as if I care how you defeat enemies, except for the last boss...) to kill the
Robo Dogs and the Robots with guns. Then you will see a helicopter; another job
for the Blaster. Get into first person mode (remember... I wonít do this any
more... [L1]...) and blast the helicopter out of the sky into bolts and lots of
ëem. Continue on and down the escalator we go into a circled area. Kill the
mine-chucking guy with your wrench or any weapon and there it is. Alís Robo
Shack! Go in and talk to Al.
Buy Heli-Pack upgrade from Al
Buy the Heli-Pack upgrade from him for 1000 bolts (damn guy, you need it to get
out of here, but just take the taxi back if you donít have the moolah).
Ride the Robot train
Now do what the Helpdesk messages tell you down the bottom of the screen (you
DID keep them on, didnít you? If you didnët, TURN ëEM ON, DUM-DUM!). In the area
with those robots, kill them with something, and move on. Go towards the
train-station and kill all the robots. But DONíT, I repeat DONíT board the train
yet! GO left of the train and smash the boxes to get about 1500 cold hard bolts!
(Want a Gold Bolt? Read on!) Now go back to the elevator and Boost jump the wall
to the right of the elevator when you first come up from it now carefully jump
on to the boxes and get the Gold Bolt (End Gold Bolt Info)
Now board the train. Yes. Nothing more to see but the train ride. Done.
Finished. OK? Kill the robots with your Blaster or Bomb Glove on the platform
behind the on the robot your trying to kill is on. When you get to the front of
the train, the Infobot will escape. (Donít go
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, because youíll get him
in les than 60 seconds!) Go to the left for some bolts and one bit of Nanotech,
then attack the helicopter and the mine-chucker with the Blaster, then go into
the room on the right to get that Infobot. Watch the cut scene and go down the
elevator.
Explore the rest of the city
Go straight past from the vendor (from the elevator) and meet up with Captain
Quark. Actually, the cut scene you see will tell you different.
Complete fitness course
Go up the ledges and wall jump. Watch out for the red boxes (you probably saw
some on Planet Aridia too), as they are explosive. If you walk into them, a 3
second countdown will sound from the box, and it will not hurt you unless you
are in its range. If you hit it with a weapon it will explode immediately. Keep
going and wall jump a much higher wall, then walk on to the green thing on the
ground under the wire and jump. You will slide down to an island leading to the
second part of the challenge. Cross the islands by double jumping and reach the
most annoying bit in any Ratchet & Clank game Iëve ever seen (I have Ratchet &
Clank 2 Locked and Loaded as well). The platforms on this island move in and
out, so of you are good at timing moves, timing is your biggest advantage on
this island. Also, the wall jump walls move in and out to, making it a bit
harder to manage. Do the same thing with the wire that you did on the first
island and meet... the fattest video game character I probably will ever see!
Buy Swingshot from trainer
If you have, and you should have 1000 bolts, buy the Swingshot. See that green
thing you saw on Planet Aridia? This is the Swingshotís use: To grab green hooks
and go to them, and to swing on yellow ones. Press [Circle] if you can see the
green Swingshot hook, and go to the second yellow island, then swing to the
third. Do what you do with the wire and go to your ship.
(Want a Gold Bolt? Read on!) From the grass that your ship is on, glide off it,
and go on the opposite direction to see a highway underpass. Go in there to fin
a Gold Bolt, some boxes, and have some fun blowing the traffic with your Comet
Strike! Now take the taxi to your ship and go back to Planet Aridia!
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
5e: Planet Aridia (2nd Visit)
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
Use your Swingshot
OK, go to the place where you saw the Swingshot hooks on your way to Skidís
Agent. Start using that Swingshot. When you reach the end, you will find the
Trespasser! This device allows you to use Invinco Locks found in many different
places. Go to the Gadgets section of this guide to find out what it does, as it
will interfere with the walkthrough if I put it here.
(Want a Gold Bolt? Read on!) On the platform that you find the Trespasser on,
look in first person mode under over the edge. You will see a moving fan type
platform. Glide down on to one of the fanís blades and go to the middle of the
fan. There is your Gold Bolt (End Gold Bolt Info)
Now go to Planet Eudora!
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
5f: Planet Eudora
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
Explore the mills
Firstly, if you have 7500 bolts then go to the Gadgetron vendor. Now buy the
Glove of Doom. Now, youíre probably asking me íWhy do I have to buy it?í and the
answer is ëBuy every weapon in the game to beat the gameí
(Want a Gold Bolt? Read on!) Go down on your right from your ship to find 4
Dual-Saw robots. Kill them and turn around. On your left you should see a very
small platform, reachable by a Boost Jump. Get up there and get the Bolt. (End
Gold Bolt Info)
Go to where the screw is and kill everything around you. Now screw in the screw
to make the bridge come up, and cross the bridge. There will be a wall jump
area. Go up it to find some boxes and a Nanotech box. Now continue on to another
screw. The developers must have been in a screw craze when they made this
planet. Screw it in and cross the bridge. Smash the crates (first time in a long
time Iíve told you to do that), and again screw in the screw, but this time,
Boost Jump to the hydraulic platform you just lowered and glide of it when itës
back at the top (finally, a change). Now you will see a big robot with an axe.
Hyper Strike him then hit him normally with your wrench. There will be another
wall jump thing here, and youíll find more crates. Now kill another big robot
and see a room with three! This is NOT a job for the Pyrocitor, but any other
weapon will do the job just fine. Now you will find the Suck Canon! Now glide
back to the platform you saw the Dual-Saw robots on.
Find and confront the lieutenant
Go back to your ship, and go to the Invinco Lock area. Complete the interface
and continue on. Glide over to the ledges that are there and see yet another
screw. Do the deal and swing your way to the other side. Now do another screw to
bring down platforms that you glide to one by one. Then you will find another
Invinco Lock. But this time the game has introduced Invinco Barriers to the
puzzle. Solve it and make your way to the lieutenant. Watch the cut scene and
collect the Infobot for Nebula G34. Go there right now!
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
5g: Nebula G34
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
Explore the Blarg warship
If you have over 6500 bolts, buy the Taunter form Gadgetron. Itís pretty
useless, but it does blow up explosive boxes. OK, go to the two doors closest to
the Gadgetron Vendor and take the one on the right. Press [Triangle] to board
the warship. Go along and kill the Pyro-Ground Bot, then pick a corridor any
corridor: left or right? Take either one, as toads are a cominí! Once you get
past the Hoppers, destroy the two Pyro-Ground Bots in the area. Then chuck two
or three Glove of Dooms at the Lizard Beasts. Now whatís that big, shiny, red
button for?
Destroy the warship
Press the button. Just press it. Donít leave yourself in suspense. Now RUN FOR
IT! Run in the opposite direction and get to the end take the corridor you took
before as the frogs wonít come out any more (hey, that rhymes!) Get the hell
outta there, then the Infobot for Planet Rilgar will become available for you to
get. Get it, but donít blast off yet. Thereís still more to do!
Explore the space station
Now go to those two doors again, but take a hike down the left side of town
(another rhyme... OK, OK, Iëll stop it now. Just got to get some humour to keep
going). Smash the yellow globe and go through where the lasers were. Now kill
the frogs will your new Suck Cannon: suck five up, kill even more with the frogs
as ammo! Hit the two globes and try yourself at the Invinco Lock. You donít have
to, but we need more bolts, for something on Planet Rilgar. Itís not a weapon or
a gadget, but youíll need 4000 bolts for it! Now get out the Bomb Glove, stand
back (at least a bit behind the door you just unlocked), and let the bombs rip!
If you get to close, frogs will come out, so not as many bolts. Now take
yourself to the Poison Gas Chamber. Jump over the green gas, and make your way
to the top of the platforms. Now get out your Swingshot and swing to the next
bit. Hit one circle, and a Lizard Beast will break out of its glass cage and
attack you. Get out your Pyrocitor and make toast! Smash the other globe and do
what you did just then, just like deja vu. Now youíll see a long corridor, and
itís filled with frogs! Get out your Pyrocitor and start the toasting again.
Once youíve completed the corridor, a ledge with a Pyro-Ground Guard on it will
be presented. Jump up and kill the Pyro-Ground Guard with your wrench; youíll
need ammo for the next bit, but thereís a Gadgetron Vendor there, so never mind.
Now here come some frogs and two Lizard Beasts. Burn all of them to bolts and
continue with your progress.
(Want a Gold Bolt? Read on!) In the room with the frogs and the two Lizard
Beasts, kill them all and look on your right. Boost-Jump yourself up to the
ledge to find a way into somewhere. Kill all the frogs and get the Gold Bolt,
then go back the way you came. (End Gold Bolt Info)
You will then see a circular room with some frogs, Lizard Beasts and a
Pyro-Ground Guard. Kill them all with your Blaster. And donít forget to clear
the lasers by shooting the Frequency Jammers. Now for your first boss fight.
BOSS FIGHT BOSS FIGHT BOSS FIGHT BOSS FIGHT BOSS FIGHT
ALIEN QUEEN
BOSS FIGHT BOSS FIGHT BOSS FIGHT BOSS FIGHT BOSS FIGHT
1st form: Alien Queen
2nd form: Alien Queen and Frogs
3rd form: Alien Queen and 2 Lizard Beasts
1st Form:
Shoot the Alien Queen with your Blaster until she moves on to the 2nd form.
2nd Form:
Get out your Pyrocitor and burn all the frogs. Then get out your Blaster and
blast her full of yellow bullets.
3rd Form
Shoot out twelve Gadgetron Doomies (three shots of the Glove of Doom) and finish
the two Lizard Beasts and the Alien Queen off.
Once youíve defeated the Lizard Queen, kill the frogs in the next room and watch
the cut scene. Now buy the Grindboots form the Gadget Engineer and grinding the
rail in front of you.
Journey outside the airlock
Once you land on firm ground, get out your Trespasser and complete the puzzle.
Now send Clank outside the airlock. Controlling Clank isnít any different from
controlling Ratchet, but Clank canít use weapons, although he can punch. Step on
the button and leave the room. Walk carefully along the green, narrow path, as
you will encounter many of these as you go along. Punch the Hopper and jump on
to the box on the left. Smash up all the boxes and smash the box that you jumped
on as well. Now glide down on to the blue boxes straight ahead, or right of the
green path you took earlier. Kill the Hoppers and go to the right. Climb the
platforms to witness to being of a very long green, narrow path. Walk VERY
slowly to reach the end and find some Gadge-Bots. Gadge-Bots are little robots
that accompany Clank on certain missions where you use Clank. You can command
Gadge-Bots to wait, follow you, attack enemies and Enter Bot-Ports or
Bot-Devices. Once youíve smashed all four free, make them attack the Lizard
Beast in front of you and some Hoppers behind it. CAUTION: If the Gadge-Bots get
killed, they will respawn at the location you found them in when you broke them
free. Now command them to enter the Bot-Device and get the Hydrodisplacer. This
gadget is used for filling and draining pools using Insta-Faucets for draining
and Insta-Drains for filling. Now return to Ratchet using the bridge provided
and go to Planet Rilgar.

5h: Planet Rilgar
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
Before you do ANYTHING, but only if you have 11,500 bolts, BUY THE MINE GLOVE!
Although I never used it in game-play, itís AWESOME! In conjunction with he
Taunter, the mineís range increases and that means more bolts, which means more
weapons, which means an easier, less stressful game.
Locate Captain Quark
Stretch-Jump to the platform near the Versa-Targets and swing to the elevator.
Step on the button and go down. Get out your Hydrodisplacer and empty the pool.
Walk to the higher bit and Boost-Jump twice to see an Insta-Drain. Fill it and
go to the corridor. Smash the big blockers and drain the next pool. Smash the
blocker then go back to the Insta-Drain and fill the pool. Swim underwater
through the corridor the blocker was in and rise to the top. Now go down the
green slide. Step on the button and run! This can be very hard if you donít
follow the proper instructions.
1: DONíT attack enemies
2: ALWAYS Stretch-Jump when you can.
3: NEVER dive too deep down underwater.
When you finish that, go to the trailer to find... a bodyguard?
Bribe the bodyguard
Well, donít blame me if you donít have 4000 bolts to bribe him. If you do, pay
up! Make sure to step on the orange button near a glass door after bribing the
bodyguard and acquiring the coordinates to Planet Umbris.
Win the hoverboard races
Go right from the Gadgetron Vendor and Boost-Jump to the ledge. Step on the
button and kill the Flame Guard and the Goo-Shooting Tank. Get the boxes and
Stretch-Jump to the ledge. Blow up the box and Stretch-Jump to the next ledge.
Step on the button and compete five flames to one; in other words burn the Flame
Guards. Now you will see some Sludge Monsters, but these ones are bigger than
the ones you saw while in the rising water area, and if you attack one as big as
this one, it will divide into two, then if you attack it again it will divide
again. But on the third hit, it will die. Move on and get out your Blaster. Try
and kill the Flame Guards on the other side of a bridge that will appear when
you step on the button, but at least try to kill the enemies first, then step on
the button. Go in the elevator and step on the button to make it go up. You will
find a Sludge Monster and two rooms with Flame Guards in them. Kill the Sludge
Monster and step on the button. Get out your Pyrocitor and start the toaster.
Once your finished, get the boxes, get on the taxi and head downtown. Here you
will find lots of Flame Guards and Sludge Monsters. Waste all of them and go to
the weird looking guy. Watch the cut scene and admit that you donít have 150000
bolts to buy the R.Y.N.O, but the R.Y.N.O is a VERY VERY VERY cool weapon! So
start saving now! Now blast the Goo-Shooting Tank and get out the olí Pyrocitor.
Step on the button (this time the developers must have been in a button craze,
and theirs about 20 coming right up) and toast the Flame Guards. Step on the
button to make the elevator go up, and go through the corridor to find a large
cave. Get all the boxes on the outside, than kill all the Sludge Monsters in the
middle. Now again step on a button to find tonnes of Flame Guards trying to kill
you. Yet again toast them with the Pyrocitor and go to the elevator. Step on the
button to make the elevator go up and find a maze (this is what I meant when I
said thereís 20 more buttons coming up). Step on the first two and kill the
Flame Guards. Step on the next two and kill the Sludge Monsters. Go ahead and
step on the next three buttons. On the next one, kill the Flame Guard. Step on
another two buttons and nothing will happen, but now go around to the very left
and step on the button there. Now kill the Sludge Monsters. Step on the
remaining buttons and head for the potholes. After you select your Blaster, jump
on the pothole near the tank and shoot it (it should take 12 shots) and jump on
the ledge where the tank was.
(Want a Gold Bolt? Read on!) Go on the pothole you just went on but DONíT jump
to the ledge. Instead, jump on the slim walls behind it. Walk very carefully to
the other side, then go right and do the same thing. Once you see the Gold Bolt,
jump down to the room itís in and grab it. Now step on the button and leave.
(End Gold Bolt info)
Now kill the next tank and go to the elevator. Step on the last button to go up
and go to the lady in the middle of the field. Watch the cut scene and enter the
hoverboard race! The objective of the race is quite obviously to come first, so
when you win it, youíll win a Platinum Zoomerator. Now go back to Planet Aridia
and show the agent your accomplishments.

Bring prize to agent
This is the third time weíve been to Outpost X11, so lets just deal with the
matter of proof that you won the hoverboard race. Take the cylinder subway and
go to the agent. Heíll then give you the Sonic Summoner. Although this is
another gadget I absolutely never ever used, it brings up Sand Mouse Houses when
you see one underground (those little things on the ground with antennae). If
the Sand Mouse likes you, it will shoot enemies without any trouble at all.
(Want a Gold Bolt? Read on!) Go back to the end of the factory. Stretch-Jump off
the grass to a small platform on the edge of the factory. Now Stretch-Jump again
to the big island in the middle, look around for a green truck, go to the truck,
collect the Gold Bolt, and find someway to get off. (End Gold Bolt info)
Now go to Planet Umbris.

Survive Quarkís gauntlet
This planet was designed to look like a World War 2 field, so it looks weird to
the average teenager, but ask a World War two soldier and heíll be quite happy
two tell you tale after tale about how the war came together. Now swing to the
ground below and glide to it after letting go of [Circle]. Get out your Blaster
and kill the bomb-toting machine. Go across the bridge and kill the bomb-toting
machines and the mines with your Blaster also. Watch out for the permanent gun
as it will not die, whatever you do (unless you come back after getting the
Morph-o-ray). Now kill all the mines and the bomb-toting machines. Go up the
stairs and kill the mines. Now kill the circling mines and step on the three
Tripads (the green things on the ground) to open the door. Kill all the
bomb-toting machines and step on the next three Tripads to open another door.
Now the bridges ahead are jinxed. If you step on a grey platform and stay there,
it will fall off and take you with it, but the black platforms are fine. Now
youíll see some missiles, and they are coming from a permanent gun. Go through
the platform and get out your Swingshot. Swing to the black platform.
(Want a Gold Bolt? Read on!) When you get to the black platform, look to the
right. Youíll see a Tripad. Glide to the platform with the Tripad and step on
it. Run and find another one to step on. The last one is on a separate platform.
When youíve stepped on all three, a door will open. Go back to the black
platform and in to the room with a Gold Bolt and lots of boxes. (End Gold Bolt
info)
Now youíll have to find three more Tripads in a very big space with permanent
guns. Find all three and step on all three to open up the next door. Go up the
stairs to find LOTS of circling mines. Waste them all, somehow and step on the
three Tripads. Climb the ladder and drain the pool. Kill the Murder Fish and go
through the tunnel that is in the pool. Kill the rest and go up the stairs.
(Want a Gold Bolt? Read on!) Up the top of the stairs you just climbed, look
down to see a room. Jump in the room to get the Gold Bolt, step on the three
Tripads and do up to the stairs again. (End Gold Bolt info)
Then glide to the next Insta-Faucet. Drain the pool and kill everything. Now go
back up the ladder and fill the pool back up and dive in. Go to the left and
rise again. Drain the pool then swing to your next destination. Here you will
see a big circular area with an Insta-Drain. Kill all the enemies first, then
fill up the pool. Now go to the small platform in the middle and do the Tripad
deal and go back to the Insta-Faucet. Empty the pool again and jump up to the
ledge at the end of the pool. Walk through the stone corridor to meet Captain
Quark. Watch the two cut scenes and get ready for another boss fight.

Destroy the Snagglebeast
First, pump the Snagglebeast full of yellow stuff with the Blaster while dodging
attacks: His vibration attack (the big yellow rings) should be dodged by double
jumping, his f
