slide down the stairs, and kill all of the enemies in 

your way!

underneath it (on the white table) and pressing Button A.

and use the star magic.  There are two floors to this 

level.

defeat them.

ROUND 2:  THE STREET

ROUND 2 § LEVEL 1:

Stand on the fire hydrant and press Button A for a 

surprise!

Check the dumpster on the far right for the last child.

BOSS:  Hit all of the characters once with the Star 

magic, or use the Dance magic to defeat them.

ROUND 2 § LEVEL 2:

Go all the way up the levels, checking all of the car 

trunks for the children.

Watch out for the deadly time bombs, they don't give you 

much time to escape.

BOSS:  Move left and right, while ducking down and 

hitting the enemies with the guns.  You can't make these 

guys dance.  If you use the Dance magic on them, they 

will only run off the screen!

ROUND 2 § LEVEL 3:

To find the hidden children:

1.  Stand on the man holes and press Button A.

2.  Go all the way left and take the elevator all the way 

up.  When at the top, go right and when the ledge runs 

out, jump to the right.  You will land on a ledge with a 

child and a thug on it.  Once the child is rescued, 

continue to the right to find a window with another child 

in it.

BOSS:  Hit the WHITE dog 5-7 times, while avoiding all of 

the other dogs.  The dogs are fun to watch dance!

ROUND 3:  THE WOODS

In this round, look for tree branches that are just out 

of jumping range.  Place Michael right under them and 

jump while pressing up on the Control Pad.  If you do it 

right, Michael will be hanging.  Now, you can make 

Michael zoom across the screen by pressing the B Button.

ROUND 3 § LEVEL 1:

Check behind the bushes and the tombstones to find all 

the children.

BOSS:  Stand on the rock ledge in the middle of the water 

and continuously hit the zombies that are coming at you.  

Then, once they disappear, jump and hit the zombies that 

are on the bridge above you.  When the number of zombies 

left starts to get low, use your dance magic to finish 

them off.

ROUND 3 § LEVEL 2:

You can turn Michael into a robot in this round.  Find 

the correct child first, and a blue streak will fly 

across the screen.  Once you grab it, you will be a 

robot.  HINT:  It's usually not the first child you come 

across!

BOSS:  Stand approximately in the middle of the screen 

and duck down, shooting each of the zombies, so they 

don't hit you.  Then, two zombies will come on the 

screen.  hit them as many times as you can before their 

heads fly off.  When their heads fly off, either duck 

below them, or jump above them.  Hit them a total of 8-10 

times with the Star magic, or 2 times with the Hat Attack 

magic.

ROUND 3 § LEVEL 3:

You can turn Michael into a robot in this round.

BOSS:  Stand on the left side of the screen and hit each 

one of the zombies 8-10 times.  When their heads fly off, 

move right, then left and avoid the fireballs that drop 

on you.

ROUND 4:  THE CAVERN

ROUND 4 § LEVEL 1:

Check behind the no dancing signs (press Button A), and 

the spiders (push Up on the Control Pad) to find hidden 

caverns.

While in the caverns, if you jump and hit the ceiling, 

you will knock down spikes.  If your jump is timed 

correctly, you will kill some of the enemies!

BOSS:  Stay towards the middle of the screen (to the 

right of the spider web, and use the Star magic on the 

enemies.  Don't stay ducked down too long, because if you 

do, the enemy will duck down and shoot you.

ROUND 4 § LEVEL 2:

Push the large rock at the lower right of the maze to the 

far right to enable you to reach the ledge just beyond 

your reach.

This is a pretty big maze, so remember where you are, and 

where you haven't been.  If you can't get to a place from 

above, try going to the right or left and dropping down.

BOSS:  Stand approximately in the middle of the screen, 

ducking down.  Continuously use the Star magic to defeat 

all of the spiders and other enemies.  If you like, 

watching the spiders dance is a lot of fun!

ROUND 4 § LEVEL 3:

Check behind the waterfall for a hidden cavern!

Move the big rocks in this round to where they will be of 

most use to you.  There are three of four of them.

BOSS:  Stay approximately in the middle of the screen, 

using the Star magic to defeat everything that is coming 

at you.

ROUND 5:  THE ENEMY HIDEOUT

ROUND 5 § LEVEL 1:

To open the white and black doors, stand with Michael's 

head touching the colored box next to the door and push 

up on the Control Pad.

Look in the boxes with the doors to find hidden children.

Take out the laser guns on the ceiling as quickly as 

possible.  To do this, get right next to them (when 

you're close, they will be pointing straight down).  

Then, jump and use the Star magic twice on them.

The hard part of this round is remembering where the 

transporters take you.  So, when you take a transporter, 

remember where it took you.

BOSS:  Stand towards the right of the screen, and use 

your Star magic on the enemies.

ROUND 5 § LEVEL 2:

There are more of the transporters in this level, so 

remember where they take you!

Try to take out the lazers before they get a chance to 

harm you.  To do this, get right next to them and hit 

them twice.

BOSS:  These guys are difficult, so keep trying if they 

kill you a couple of times.  Try to keep them on the left 

hand side of the screen.  If one jumps over you to the 

left, move all the way to the left, duck down and 

continuously use your Star magic until the enemy appears 

again (you can hit them when they aren't on the screen).  

Don't use any of Michael's special magic's on these 

enemies, because you will need the energy to beat them.

ROUND 5 § LEVEL 3:

BOSS:  Start by hitting all of the enemies.  After a few 

seconds, the screen will go black, and Michael will be 

hit by a blue streak, which will turn him into a robot.  

Fly around, shooting all of the green guys you see.  

After killing 50-60 enemies, the screen will explode, and 

the round is over.

ROUND 6:  MICHAEL'S BATTLE PLANE

This round is different from the rest of the game.  

Michael and Mr. Big have taken to the skies, and the 

object is to blow him up before he blows you up.  To do 

this, start by holding down on the Control Pad, while 

continuously firing.  You will notice that there are 

meteorites coming at you.  Continue firing until the 

meteorites start to slow down and eventually stop.  Once 

this happens, look at the lower right hand corner of the 

screen and you will see the radar screen, with a blue dot 

on it.  The blue dot is Mr. Big.  Try to keep the blue 

dot in the middle of the screen, while constantly 

shooting at him.  Watch out though, because he also fires 

and in addition to his firing, he tries to ram you with 

his ship.  To avoid his dodge, move up or down when he 

starts to come at you.
