Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards - Strategy Guide (Page 03)

Below are the cheat codes, hints and help for Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards - Strategy Guide (Page 03).

Card 4: Acro

The killer whale that spits out more garbage at you than a drunk person
is Aqua Star's boss.

Card 5: Magman

The lava beast with very cool looking lava effects is Neo Star's boss.
Scary looking, yes?

Card 6: HR-H

The big robot with the nasty arms is phase 1 of Shiver Star's boss,
which is of course, a robot.  Cool Futuristic background.......

Card 7: HR-E

The second form of Shiver Star's boss, with better arms and tricky
attacks.  Nice shifting animation.......

Card 8: Miracle Matter

Think of that one dice you roll on Scattergories, but it can shift to
multiple elements (7 to be precise), and has lots of eyes.  Ripple
Star's boss, and the last one if you didn't get all of the shards.
That, and you get a scary "fake ending".......*Shudder*

Card 9: O2

The boss of Dark Star, and the final one if you find all of the shards.
Do not say he's scary until you've seen him for yourself!

Card 10: N-Z

These black guys walk around like they own the place......yeah
right....they have no abilites, and very easy to take down.

Card 11: Rocky

They try to land on you from high places most of the time.  Avoid it,
then swallow it for the Stone ability.

Card 12: Bronto Burt

We figured those flying guys would return.  They have no abilites, and
they always fly around.

Card 13: Skud

This missile locks on Kirby the moment he gets close.  Swallow one for
the Bomb ability.

Card 14: Gordo

It just wouldn't a Kirby game with out those guys, wouldn't they?  These
black balls with spikes can't be inhaled or destroyed.  Avoid them.

Card 15: Shotzo

And another popular enemy from Kirby returns!  They always fire shots at
you in one direction and are invincible.

Card 16: Spark-i 	

These diamonds open up and fire at Kirby when he comes close.  Swallow
for the Spark ability.

Card 17: Bouncy

They just bounce up and down for no reason.  They have no abilities,
either.  Swallow and spit, they're a little hard to dodge.

Card 18: Glunk

These underwater creatures that cling to the surface (Or anywhere
underwater) will fire at Kirby.  Some of them are out of the water.

Card 19: Slushy

These white blobs just float there.  They have no abilites whatsoever.

Card 20: Chilly

These snowmen will try to freeze Kirby.  Swallow one for an ice ability.

Card 21: Propeller

They usually hover in place, but if you have an ability, they'll come
toward you!  Why you get an Ice ability when you swallow these guys
instead of the Bomb ability is one of life greatest mysteries-they don't
even try to freeze you.

Card 22: Glom

Aren't these frogs cute?  Yes they are......just don't let them swallow
Kirby or you'll regret calling them cute!  You'll know when there's one
when you see a pair or eyes sticking out of a hole.  Fool them or work
around them, then move on.  Don't try to kill them, it doesn't work.

Card 23: Mahall

These yellow guys with green lids stick out and spit bubbles at you.  No
abilites, just inhale, and don't step on the lid when it's on the
ground.

Card 24: Poppy Brothers Jr.

Surely you recognize these guys?  They throw bombs at you.  Swallow for
the Bomb ability.

Card 25: Splinter

When they roll, get out of the way!  Don't even think about harming them
or swallowing them, they have spikes which can hurt you!

Card 26: Gobblin

These plants in the background try to bite you, wait until they bite,
then move on.

Card 27: Kany

A crab with claws:  ISN'T IS OBVIOUS NOW?!  Don't have them snap you!
They have no abilities.

Card 28: Bivolt

These glowing light pulses appear when climbing ropes.  Jump off when
you see one.  They can't be inhaled or destroyed.

Card 29: Sir Kibble

They throw a cutter at you, and when in the air, they'll get at an even
height to throw it at you.  You'll have the cutter ability when you
swallow one.

Card 30: Gabon

They throw bones at you.  Ouch.  They have no abilities, although it's
funny to see them running around without their skeleton hat on.  He he
he he......

Card 31: Mariel

A black spider that tries to bump into you.  No abilites, and it looks
like it came out of a cross between another dimension and a pile of
black sand.

Card 32: I3

I need to find out how they come up with weird names.  Anyway, this
green block with one eye will try to smash you.  Odd, it doesn't kill
you instantly unlike other times when Kirby gets smashed.........let it
drop, then as it rises, continue.  No abilities, and they are
indestructible.

Card 33: Snipper

They come out of holes and try to pinch you.  Easy to avoid.  They have
no abilites, and they can't be harmed.

Card 34: Blowfish

Once Kirby get close to this green fish, it'll explode.  Immediately
swallow it before it explodes for the Bomb ability.

Card 35: Bonehead

Once Kirby gets close, they'll fly into him.  They have no abilites, but
they shouldn't be hard to take of.

Card 36: Squibby

A very annoying underwater enemy, they stick out three stingers which
can harm Kirby.  No abilities.

Card 37: Bobo

These fireballs just run around.  Perfect for getting the fire ability
if you swallow it.

Card 38: Bo

Just black balls that float around.  No abilites.

Card 39: Punc

These green guys curl up into a ball and try to hit Kirby.  Once
swallowed, you'll have the fire ability.

Card 40: Mite

They dig out of the ground to surprize you.  They have no abilites.

Card 41: Sandman

Small hills of sand that rise when Kirby gets close.  No abilites for
these guys either.

Card 42: Flopper

They swim around like everyday fish, and some flop on land.  They have
no abilites.

Card 43: Kapar

These green guys function just like the Sir Kibbles.  They too, have the
cutter ability.

Card 44: Maw

Just as annoying as the Gloms, they try to swallow Kirby from floors and
ceilings.  They can be killed, but the can't be swallowed.

Card 45: Drop

Just drops of water that fall from the ground.  No abilites.

Card 46: Pedo

Underwater torpedoes that come out of underwater alcoves.  One swallow
will get you the Bomb Ability.

Card 47: Noo

Appearing in the background, they throw fire at you when you get close.
They can be harmed, but that counts a stun.  They'll only come back.

Card 48: Tick

Not the superhero "Tick", but these annoyances.  They appear from under
the floor and will shoot their needle-like hair through it!  Swallow for
the Needle ability.

Card 49: Cairn

Think of a snowman, but it's with stones.  They bounce up and down and
when swallowed, they give you the stone ability.

Card 50: Pompey

These stones shoot volcanic rocks at you when you get close.  Swallow
one for a Stone ability.

Card 51: Hack

A stone axe with no eyes will try to chop you.  Becuase it's a stone
axe, you'll get a Stone ability, not the cutter (Which is more
dangerous, getting cut in half or getting smashed?).

Card 52: Burnie

A fiery bird that drops volanic rocks on you, and some dive bomb you.
These can be swallowed for the Fire ability.

Card 53: Fishbone

Weird triangle fish that spit triangles at you, swallow one for the
cutter ability.

Card 54: Frigis

Same as Burnie, but it drops icy rocks on you and can be swallowed for
the Ice ability.

Card 55: Sawyer

They remind me of those circular saw-like enemies in Super Mario World,
but they go through the ground instead.  Cutter ability can be obtained
once swallowed.

Card 56: Turbite

They float in place, and when Kirby comes, they'll run into him and zap
him.  Dodge and swallow for the Spark ability.

Card 57: Plugg

Apropriately named for these guys, they plug into the ground and emit
and electrical charge when Kirby gets close.  Also has the Spark ability
when swallowed.

Card 58: Ghost Knight

They'll poke Kirby with their lance, and block any projectiles with
their shield (Exception: Explosives, since they may go through it).
It's better to swallow one for the needle Ability.

Card 59: Zoos

These Lakitu rip-offs throw electriciey at Kirby, and will drop
raindrops on him.  Get in the air and swallow one for the Spark ability.

Card 60. Kacti

These cactus will roll into Kirby.  One swallow, and you'll have the
Needle ability.

Card 61. Rock'n

A uh.......missile that come out of alcoves on the walls.  Like the
Pedos, they can be swallowed for the Bomb ability.

Card 62. Chacha

They shake their maracas, occasionally at you!  They have no abilites.

Card 63. Galbo

These small dinosaurs are asleep, but when you get close, they wake up
breathe fire at you!  The Fire Ability can be gotten if swallowed.

Card 64. Bumber

They float to the surface, then walk around.  No abilites.

Card 65: Scarfy

Uh.....not these guys.  If you try to swallow it, it'll freaky until it
either (A)hits you, or (B) explodes by itself.  They'll also do this
whenever your back is turned.  You can kill in other ways, like using
your abilities, but it's better to run.  Obviously, they have no
abilites.

Card 66: Nruff

These hogs just run around.  No abilites.

Card 67: Emp

Scamper the Penguin was more cuter than this.  This penguin runs away
when you gets close.  For multiple laughs, swallow one for an Ice
ability while it's running away.

Card 68: Magoo

A black fireball.  It'll give you the fire ability if you swallow it.

Card 69: Yariko

These jungle natives throw spears at you from high places.  They have no
abilites.

Card 70: Flutter

These butterflies just fly in background.

Card 71: Wall Shotzo

Same as Shotzo, but is stuck to a wall and the cannon tracks your
movement.

Card 72: Keke

It's not that beautiful teenage witch that does a delivery service,
rather, it's a witch that flies in the background.  I sometimes wonder
why they put those there.

Card 73: Sparky

The infamous lightbulb enemy has returned to try and shock Kirby again!
Swallow one for the Spark Ability.

Card 74: Ignus

These Volcanic rocks fall on you in the volcano stage on Neo Star.  No
abilites.

Card 75: Flora

These flowers float toward Kirby when he gets close.  No abilites.

Card 76: Putt

This little fathead will push a boulder toward you on a slope.  Dodge
the boulder, then harm him.  He has no abilites, and it kinda makes you
wonder why a little weakling would push something this big....

Card 77: Pteran

These prehistoric birds fly back and forth, and they have no abilites.
I know what bird they are, but I forgot how to spell it.

Card 78: Mumbies

When your back is turned, they follow you!  They can't be swallowed, so
they have no abilites!  But they can be harmed.  I'd rather run from
them.

Card 79: Pupa

They drop down in front of you.  They can't be harmed, but they can be
killed by either hitting them with a ability or by touching the wire.
Beware of the explosion, though.

Card 80: Mopoo

They come in and out of the clouds.  They have no abilites, and can be
very annoying, since they appear out of nowhere.

Card 81: Zebon

These are more of "helpers", but who cares?  Jump in one and they'll
launch you!  Some you'll have to aim manually on (Press A.).

And these are all of the info cards.

8. Boss Battle Walkthrough

Okay, it's an option where you have to beat those bosses unarmed, with
one life, and can't recover your health (Insane people........) here's
the complete walkthrough for that, also.

1. Whispy Woods

You know what to do.  Suck in the tomatoes.  If you get hit even once,
stop playing this game right now!

2. Pix

Suck in the molecules and spit those back at the cubes.  Again, try to
remain untouched, especailly during the beginning.

3. Acro

Suck in the enemies (Except Gordo) and the rocks and........you get the
idea, but try not to get hit even once again.

4. Magman

Same idea-rocks at the lava pillars in the first phase, rocks and his
face the second phase.  If you get hit only make sure you get hit once,
and only once!

5. HR-H

This guy's tricky!  Suck in the missiles and try to hit his arms, then
run to the far end of the screen in his second phase.  Inhale the
missiles from afar when they reach their highest point, and....you know
what to do.  If you get hit again, make sure it is only once or twice.

6. Miracle Matter

You know what to do, see the walkthrough (I made a rhyme!).  You should
have at least three or four pieces, but if you have all 6, you're better
than I am at this (I usually have two when I reach him.)!

7. O2

Ditto, especailly if you dodge his shots 99.9% of the time (If not
100%.).  If you have one piece on you life meter left, just dodge as
best as you can (Although I have beaten him with one bar left, and that
was luck!)!

If you beat them all you get some cool art saying "Congratulations!"
from the designers!


9. Credits

HAL/Nintendo: For making this game.

Me: For writing it.

CJayC: Created this oh-so fun site, www.gamefaqs.com

Man, was that short, or what?

10. Disclaimer

1. You will print out this FAQ with my permission.  Besides, who wants
to waste time going back and forth through the internet reading
walkthroughs like these?

2. You can post this on your site with my permission, but posting it
directly without my permission will result in me taking lights, camera,
and more importantly, action!  Well, just action, just joking about the
lights and camera.

3. You will not steal my FAQ!  That's including saying all of this is
yours, messing with certain items (Such as a paragraph with helpful
info, ASCII art, etc.), and besides, stealing is a cruel crime.  So do
me.....well......us a favor and stop it with this stealing of other
people's property!

4. No selling my FAQ in any form whatsoever!  Remember, this is an FAQ,
not a player's guide!  I'm not selling out, you know.

5. The latest version (Even though I use no numbers) of my FAQ will only
be found at www.gamefaqs.com.  NO WHERE ELSE!

6. I will not accept any letters that involve working for your site, any
idiotic questions, etc.

7. You must update this when I update it.  Not doing so will only mean
you're a greedy person who slaps in info which I didn't know about!


Well, that's it!  My first guide is finished!  Any questions, comments,
blah, blah, blah, can be sent me at cedoda@cs.com.

One more thing before I go-this game took me 2 days to beat, including
all of the crystal shards!  I've seen both endings, the fake one and the
real one, and the fake one scared me at the end.  The real one, however,
was pretty funny.  Plus, I've also played the mini games!  How nice!
The only thing I didn't want to see (Besides Dark Matter) was that
option where you fought the bosses in consectuive order, that got me
very mad.

Also, why isn't Kracko (That eyeball character) in this game?  He was
the only other common boss besides Whispy Woods and King Dedede!  Plus,
what happened to his "Traditoinal Victory Dance?" (You know, where he
splits into three and starts dancing.)  And we could use more
worlds/levels (Like 9 or 10 planets, or maybe 10 stages per planet.).

Nevertheless, HAL should be given credit for such a short, yet fun and
creative game.  (Don't forget to read my review at www.gamefaqs.com!)

Until the next guide, everyone............
PEACE!!!!!
