Act Walk-through:

Act 1:  Leaty's Power

Act 1, Part 1:
Start off by going to the upper right corner, taking out
all of the enemies, and the craters (they flash when you
hit them).  When you see a statue on the left, talk to
it, and then continue through the palace gates.

Act 1, Part 2:
Start off by going to the right, and following the
passageway.  Eventually (next to the water), you will
find a soldier.  Talk to the soldier, and continue
through the maze.  When you reach a + in the road (the
road goes off in four different directions), go up, to a
waterfall (You'll know you're there, because you will get
a message).  Then, go back down (the way you came) and
take the first passageway, to a place with giant frogs. 
Go up the far right passageway, and behind the waterfall
to find an item (doll of life), then back down and to the
right.  Take the next passageway up, and go behind the
waterfall to exit the round.  Once at the exit, you will
be in a square room, facing a boss. 

Boss:
To defeat the boss, try to trap him against the walls in
the middle of the room, while hitting him.  If you have
rebounding shots, use them to your advantage (you can
trap him against the middle part easier).

Act 2:  A Lost Cave
Start off by heading up and to the left, until you find a
prison, with four prisoners.  They will tell you about
the Prison Key.  Follow the pathway back to the
beginning, then head up and to the right.  Find the first
chest (with the Magic Power Crystal in it), and head up
from there and take the first right.  Follow it to the
Prison Key.  Once you have the Prison Key, head back to
the prison, and the first person you talk to will join
you (in two player mode, two people will join (one for
each player)).  Then, talk to the dying prisoner, and he
will tell you about the Exit Key.  Go back to the place
where you got the Prison Key, and instead of going right,
take the left just before where you turned right before. 
Follow the passageway to a bridge (different color from
the rest of the maze), and take the first right
passageway.  Continue on the pathway, until you see a
bridge.  Walk to the bridge, and you should find the Exit
Key (it's actually a little above the bridge).  Once you
have the exit key, head back to where you got the Prison
Key, and head up from there to find the exit. 


Boss:
Once you have reached the exit, shoot the thing that
appears, and then jump on the Turtle's back.  The Turtle
will start moving.  As it moves, an enemy (Frogman) will
appear on the outer edges of the shell.  Continuously hit
the Frogman when he pops up out of the water.

General Hints:
The skeletons in this round come back to life after you
hit them, so hit them and move on (don't stand above
them)

Act 3:  Bad Dream

Act 3, Part 1:
Start off by going left, and going up the stairs.  Once
at the top, go left and up another set of stairs.  Once
at the top of those, head right, and go up two sets of
stairs (one BIG staircase), and go left, past another set
of stairs, to a door.  Behind the door is the Sword of
Hero.  Once you have the sword, head all the way back to
the beginning of the round (where you went up the first
set of stairs), and go right instead of left this time. 
Follow that around, avoiding the flying bats, and you
will come across a long set of stairs.  Go up the stairs,
and go down to a door.  Take the door, to find several
treasure chests!  In them are many useful things.  Once
you have gotten all the items you need, proceed back to
the stairs, and head to the upper right corner to a door. 
Take the door to enter Part 2.

Act 3, Part 2:
You start off on the right hand side of the map, in the
middle.  Walk through this maze, heading to the upper
right corner to find the Sword of Ambition.  Take the
Sword of Ambition to the upper left corner of the maze,
and enter the door.  This will take you to Part 3 of the
maze.

Act 3, Part 3:
You start off this part in the lower left hand corner. 
Walk to the upper right corner to a door.  Enter the
door, and take the Sword of Darkness.  Once you take the
Sword, a several guards will come out and capture you. 
They take you to a room, with a guy on a Spider's back. 

Boss #1:
To defeat this guy, continuously hit this guy (hit the
guy on the Spider's back), moving only to not let it trap
you in the corner.  If you have gotten your weapon
powered up in the first two rounds, this guy shouldn't be
a problem.  Once you have defeated him, exit and you will
be in Part 4.

Act 3, Part 4:
You start this part in the lower right corner, right
above the exit!  Start off by walking to the upper right
corner, and getting the Sword of Fighter.  Once you have
the sword, walk back down to the entrance, and continue
down to find a door.  This door leads to a room with a
triangle in the middle.  Place the sword in the triangle
(it will do it automatically), and exit the opened door. 
The open door will lead back to Part 2 again.

Act 3, Part 1 (again):
This time, you start off in the lower left corner.  Start
off by heading up and left, to find a place where you
will put the Sword of Darkness.  Enter the room, and get
the Sword of Peace.  Exit, and walk back down to the
exit, only instead of taking the last left, go right at
the bottom instead.  You will find a place to use the
Sword of Peace.  Enter the room, and you will be faced
with the second boss. 

Boss #2:
To defeat this boss, stand in front of it, and shoot at
it.  If you have a Doll of Life, or Lamp, just use them
and stand in one place to defeat it.

Act 4:  The Wicked Flame
Start off by going up the stairs, and heading back to the
left to talk to the guy.  Once you have talked to the
guy, head all the way up, until you come across a red
pool with one of those dragons coming out of it. 
Continue going up, and follow the passageway around. 
Eventually, the passageway will start going in a circle,
and once at the end, you will be stopped, and hear the
voice of two people talking.  Continue to the right, and
enter the door.  Immediately, you will be surrounded by
two guys.  To defeat them, concentrate your fire on them
one at a time.  Each one should die pretty easily, if you
do it this way.  Once they are defeated, get the Gate
Charm from the table in the middle of the room.  Once you
have the gate charm, you can go back through the maze,
and take out all the walls in the area where you can't go
(water will rush through them, if you do them in the
correct order).  Eventually, once you take all of the
gates out (there are at least 4 of them, maybe more), a
waterfall will have fallen over the entrance, which will
allow you to leave (under the waterfall).  Once you have
left, you will be faced with the boss. 

Boss:
To defeat this boss, concentrate on hitting it, until it
shoots, then move left or right to avoid the fireballs
and concentrate on hitting it again.  Repeat this
procedure until he is defeated.

Act 5:  The Arrival
Start off by going up and to the left, to the prison. 
Talk to the guy behind the cell, and then head to the
right.  When you come across a mini-boss (green guy that
talks to you), go right and you can find two guys sitting
there.  Talk to one of them, and it will join you!  Go
back to the left, and take out the mini-boss (if you
haven't already), and head up and to the right.  Continue
past the first mirror, to the right.  Eventually, you
will come across a big opening, with a passageway to the
right.  Take the right passageway (not the bottom one,
the second one from the bottom), and enter the door.  Go
in and defeat the crystal looking thing, and you will be
able to break the mirrors!  Go out and find the mirror
you just past, then search to the right of the area where
you fought the crystal thing.  Take out all the mirrors,
then make your way to the upper right corner, to find a
set of stairs, which leads to the boss. 

Boss #1:
To defeat this boss, stand just to the left of the head,
a good distance away from it, while shooting at it.  When
it shoots it's fireballs, you can stand in the same place
(if you are standing just to the left of the head). 
Eventually, it will shoot out purple rays.  To avoid
them, simply move up or down until they have missed you. 
Then, continue to hit it.  Once this thing is defeated,
head up, and talk to the guy above you.  He will
eventually turn into the second boss.

Boss #2:
To defeat this boss, constantly move, avoiding his shots,
while hitting him.  He doesn't move too quickly, so you
should be able to hit him a couple of times, before you
have to move.

Act 6: Dark Minions

Room 1:
Move up until only one statue is showing on the screen. 
Shoot that statue until it has exploded, then move onto
the next one.  Once you have defeated all of them, exit
through the door.

Room 2:
Don't let the Spider's Web you.  To avoid this,
concentrate on them one at a time, while constantly
moving.  If you stand in one place, you will be webbed,
and when you are webbed, you will lose alot of life! 
These Spiders don't shoot diagonally, so use that to your
advantage!

Room 3:
Move around, hitting the snakes, while avoiding the rings
they shoot.  Keep moving.  Concentrate on one at a time,
and you will be better off.  This is probably the hardest
part to this round, so practice.

Room 4:
Use magic, and continuously hit the creature until it is
defeated.

Final Boss:
Talk to the guy, then head down the stairs, to the top of
the second set of stairs, and shoot up at the creature. 
If you do it correctly, you will be able to hit it over
and over, and it won't be able to hit you!

Act 7:  Nightmare Castle
Start off by going down and to the right, and talking to
the guy.  Go back down, and then take the middle pathway,
all the way up.  Continue up, and take the first
passageway leading up.  Continue to the up and to the
right (over the bridge), and take the stairs.  This will
lead you to a big area of land, with some chests on it. 
Continue all the way to the left, and enter the door to
fight the first boss. 

Boss #1:
To defeat this guy, go around the enemy that appears
before you, and shoot the guy sitting on the throne at
the back of the area.

Exit the area, by going back to the stairs, then go back
over the bridge, and head to the right and up.  Behind
the mist, at the top of the area to the right, you will
find another door.  Enter the door, to fight the second
boss.

Boss #2:
To defeat this boss, go around the enemy that appears
before you, and shoot the guy sitting on the throne in
the back of the area.

Once you are out, go down and all the way to the left and
up.  Take the stairs, and take the left passageway all
the way down.  At the very bottom, you will fight the
third boss.

Boss #3:
To defeat this boss, go around the enemy that appears
before you, and shoot the guy sitting on the throne in
the back of the area.

Once he is defeated, go back to where you went left, and
go all the way to the right, and down.  At the very
bottom of the passageway, you will encounter the final
boss (if you go here before you have defeated all of the
other bosses, it will say "It feels like there is
something wrong here".).

Final Boss:
To defeat the final boss, wait for his head to come out
of the ground, and hit it.  Keep moving, stopping only to
shoot at his head.

Act 8: The Full Moon
Follow the maze around, taking out all of the monsters
along the way.  At the top of the maze, you will meet a
guy.  He will ask you two questions.  To answer them
correctly, answer "YES" to the first question, and "NO"
to the second one.  When you answer the questions
correctly, you will fight the guy, and once you defeat
him, you will be transferred out into space.  Defeat him
out in space again to see the ending!
