Hobbit, The - Strategy Guide (Page 02)
Below are the cheat codes, hints and help for Hobbit, The - Strategy Guide (Page 02).
Hop over these "holes" in order not to get "stuck."There's a green CP in front of you and around this next corner is, what IS that? It's and elvish lady! A cutscene will take place when you get near her. Let's take this monster! It's not really that tough, all you have to do is kill that little armadillo thing next to it and it gets mad and rears up, revealing its soft undersides, whack it as much as you can. Then two minions come out, kill them and whack the big one, then THREE! Once they are all gone, hit the monster one last time and it should be over. If only Bullroarer could see you now! There's lots of goodies in the cavern and it's a bit hard to walk you through it. Follow along the left wall (as you came into this place). There are pods that you see pretty quick but all you get are mushrooms. Open them anyway though. Pretty soon you'll see a sack up in a dark section of the wall, it leads into a cave so follow it. Destroy the armadillos (or whatever it is), collect your CP and chest, and head back out to the big room. Hey! Did you get another health bubble? Congrats! See all those dragon things in the ground? They are very annoying, but easy to kill, just use rocks and whack them. If you've still been following the wall, follow the blue CP towards a stand by a cliff. We can't use it yet. However, you can head behind those rocks to your right and get a SP from that pod! Keep following the wall to a rock pile. Inside are three green CP, get them. Now there's only one thing left in this place, to climb up the platforms and get to the end of them (the platforms are in the center of this cavern by the way). There are several ways to get up there, but once you are at the top, you'll see a healing draught sitting there, and a cave to your right. Inside the cave is a green CP, get both and drop down, now go back to the elf. She rewards you with a Witch King Crystal! Now you can go back to that stand. Save if you wish. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Checkpoint! 187 Silver Pennies, 664 Courage Points ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Go to the stand, place the crystal and either hop on really quick or wait for the platform to come back. It comes from below so watch for it! Get on and ride it till it takes you down and to a little covey in the wall with an armadillo and a chest among other things. Get the pods and chest. Now go back up and to the other side. Going up you'll meet another armadillo and if you look sharp, between two rocks to your left (before the tunnel) is a pod, break it open. Get the two pods in front of you and head left. Jump over the spikes, break the pods, kill the armadillo, get the chest and the CP in the little space behind the rocks, and back out. Simple as that. Now go! Well, pretty fast, but it could be done faster. Now back out and go up the tunnel. Sharp to your right is a green CP, before the spikes. If you wait for that creature to come at you, he'll impale himself very satisfactorily :) Just make sure you pick up the CP. Keep going up, kill the armadillos, head to the right (NOT towards the sunlight yet) and by that red CP is a pod, break it open. Keep going toward the greenish area but don't get near the edge! You'll slide down! collect the CP as you go. There should be a nice Pink one at the end, and four pods, break them. Now carefully go back to the center of this slippery area and cautiously look over the edge, center yourself so that you'll slide down next to that chest and CP. Now go! Whew! That was fun! Collect everything and jump on the vine, which will carry you up so you can jump on another vine and quickly (or it will break) jump to safety. If you fall all the way down, don't sweat, you'll just have to go the long way around again. NOW go out towards the sunlight. It looks beautiful doesn't it?! ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Checkpoint! 358 Silver Pennies, 859 Courage Points ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Climb up the vine with the Blue CP on it and....uh-oh. Back into those dark caves! Watch out for those spikes! There are three sets this time. After another turn, a cutscene will show you where the key is, when it ends, keep going. Take out all of the three enemies and then collet the CP next to the edge by the water, don't fall! Two red and one green I believe. Get the blue ones at the far end next to the save station and save. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Checkpoint! 358 Silver Pennies, 917 Courage Points ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Now hop onto that closest platform. Turn right and go across the vine to the next, then down to the left, onto another vine to the right (towards the waterfall) and then onto that small platform way down there with the green CP on it. Get onto the next vine and can you kind of see the cave behind the waterfall? Of course! Every kid knows that every waterfall has a cave behind it right? Or if it doesn't then it ought to. Get inside and prepare to fight a spider. It might be tough for you at first, but you should be able to get it. Ah! It's dead. Now you can collect at your leisure. There's that white CP next to the two Pink ones, a pod with a sack of coins in it, some more CP by a web (which you can't get through) and a chest. The chest contains money AND some Expert Throwing Tactics, now your stones deal more damage! Go back out to the water pool. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Checkpoint! 443 Silver Pennies, 1062 Courage Points ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ The easiest way to get out there is to stay in the water and get to those small platforms near the edge of that chasm, then hop up (be careful not to keep going over the falls) and get the sack, then onto the vine. You'll get a ride up, then you'll want to hop onto the next vine (heading out toward the falls), then onto the platform with the green CP and then onto the last vine, which will drop you down near that Pink CP, which you'll be able to get easily. Now get back up and onto that platform. You can go back to the save station if you wish, or you can continue to the other save station across the pool from it. You're definitely saving here right? Open the chest, get the CP and kill the Armadillos. To your right is a small cave where there's a chest and a crystal. Go back and towards that slimy hill that you'll have to go up. At the bottom of the hill. Get up there and kill all those little enemies that run towards you, they are easy and only take one hit each. There are a number of CP around here, get them, open the chest near the save station, place the crystal, get the blue CP next to the vine. Now onto the vine, and then the platform, then the moving platform. You can wait a little while for the next, lower platform to get in good timing, then hop onto it, to your right (you're on the second moving platform) there is a vine, jump on it and at the top is a platform with lots of goodies! Get them! ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Checkpoint! 539 Silver Pennies, 1290 Courage Points ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Go across the platforms again, this time going on all of them, there's the key! Once you have it, to your right is a platform with some CP on it. Get those too. Hop back, across the vine, and into the upper tunnel (you've already been in the lower one). Watch out for the spikes and get the chest behind the rock to the left before you go on the vine. Hop across the vine and out into sunlight again! Long jumpt across the ravine, but if you fall down, it's not too far of a walk to get back, just go into the cave again, and up the new vine that is there. If you didn't fall, good lad! And go up to the right side, kill the wolves. Whoopee! Get the three white CP, the chest, and you're done! How do you like that OTHER new health bubble? ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Checkpoint! 654 Silver Pennies, 1500 Courage Points ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Let me see, go ahead and get the rock bag upgrade now :) ========================================================================================= ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 4: Over Hill and Under Hill (CHPTR4) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ========================================================================================= []Talk to Bofur about the Campfire []Get Firewood for Bofur ()Fix the Gold Machine ()-Find Large Gold Gear ()-Find Small Gold Gear ()-Find Medium Gold Gear ()-Find Gold Shank Arm ()-Find Gold Shank Head ()Fix the Copper Machine ()-Find Large Copper Gear ()-Find Small Copper Gear ()-Find Medium Copper Gear ()-Find Copper Shank Arm ()-Find Copper Shank Head ()Fix the Metallic Machine ()-Find Large Metallic Gear ()-Find Small Metallic Gear ()-Find Medium Metallic Gear ()-Find Metallic Shank Arm ()-Find Metallic Shank Head Find Bofur and he'll tell you to find some firewood, pick up the three CP in front of him. Now head back out to Gandalf, turn to the left along the cliff, grab three more blue CP and a Expert Sword Tactics. Save. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Checkpoint! 0 Silver Pennies, 6 Courage Points ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Now you can go to the firewood. My! That was quite a wild ride! Away from the water fall and towards a small circle of CP in an opening you'll run into some wolves, so take them out, by the way, Sting will kill them quicker so it's best to equip that. There are mushrooms around this area so you can keep up your health pretty easily. Head back to the save station and jump out past it onto the first platform. Off to the left is another, higher one. Go to it. Then the next. Do you see two ropes? Well get onto the NEXt platform, and it should be the one in front of the second rope. If you look real hard you can see a cave behind the waterfall, jump into it. Inside are some more of those dragon things, and two chests. Get 'em all! Now go out of the cave and jump to the rope you've not been on yet. At the top of this rope you'll be able to jump towards the cliff wall and get on a ledge. Along the left side is another narrow rock jutting out that you can jump to (use your long-jump if you're uncomfortable) and then down below that you'll see a large white Courage Point. That's what we were after so grab it, and drop down by the save station (saving if you wish) and then back across the platforms in the middle of the waterfall area. When you reach the very highest one, look off to your left and you'll see a small ledge you can grab on to, and on that ledge is a blue chest. Open it. Now jump down the pillars to the save station on the side you're on (the one you've not been to yet). Don't go towards the blue CP yet! Instead, jump back out onto a lower platform near the edge of where the water falls down into nothingness. Now over to that Red Courage Point. Drop down by the rope and then on to it, slide down and turn around to reach for another rope. Jump on to it. Be careful here! Make sure that you face the wall when you jump off this vine or you'll jump down into the abyss! Open the chest and then go up and back to that save point. You haven't gotten those three blue CP by the save staion have you? Good. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Checkpoint! 95 Silver Pennies, 160 Courage Points, 4 Chests ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Now you can go get them, and fill up on mushrooms if necessary. Down over the edge by that first dead tree is a red CP. Get it. Now go over by those two pine-looking trees by the far edge, down the side is another Red CP. Here's a tricky part for you! Pole-jump out to that vine that has the white CP by it. Then jump back :) Now go up by that white block, you don't have to move it, and jump onto the ledge above it. Open the chest, and jump onto the rope. There's a red CP at the top of it. Back towards the white block is a higher up ledge with another red CP, jump over to it, then drop down, climb up the white block, onto the ledge, and BACK onto the rope. Now jump the opposite way. Follow the ledges along the rock wall and drop down by the blue chest. Get it, and then run back to save if you wish, if not, then continue back down, and past the white block to get on another vine. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Checkpoint! 135 Silver Pennies, 263 Courage Points, 6 Chests ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Hop up the vine for some more blue CP. Then just follow the walkway. Jump up onto the next vine, and when you jump off of this one, you can grab onto a little ledge and wiggle your way around this tricky part of the cliff. Regular cliff-hanger you are! Stick close to the edge and then to the save station. Phew! ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Checkpoint! 135 Silver Pennies, 273 Courage Points, 6 Chests ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Here's where the fun begins. I'll be writing fast so I hope you can keep up with me! ;) There are a group of Stone Giants who are using you Mr. Baggins, for target practice! Being the perfect little dodger you are, foil their every plan by keeping out of the way. Run around the cliff and get that little orange thing. These are fire stones and will make your stones do incredible damage. Equip them and keep running up to the next area, quickly target and throw a stone at each of the wolves. That was easy! No time for congratulating yourself though, you've got to keep on the move! Run into that little cave at the end and smash open the pods for some Silver Pennies. Now hop up onto the lower rope outside that little cave. The giants apparently can't hit you when you're not on the ground, so you're safe here. Jump across the vines and grab the CP on the ledge. Drop down, don't go up those steps where the blue CP are yet, we don't want to go there yet! Drop down the side of the cliff by that dead tree and get the green CP down there, there is also a red one on the vine that you use to get back up with. And another red one on the side of the cliff after that. Keep backtracking along the edge of the cliff. Get the two green ones on the ledges by the other dead tree in this area (no rope hanging down from it). Your last stop is to run into the cave right across from where that large stone is just sitting in the open. Bust open the pods and now go to those steps and go up them. You have to be quick on these vines, I believe if you stay too long on them that you will fall (don't know for sure though, as I never cared to make certain). Jump across them quick! Phew! Up on that ledge? You can survey where you have come from to make sure you didn't miss anything. Run down and quickly gather in the Pink CP over the edge, and the red one by the mossy pillar, and then save. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Checkpoint! 235 Silver Pennies, 399 Courage Points, 6 Chests ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Now trick those stone giants into making a bridge for you. You can do that by standing over next to that large mossy pillar until one of them throws a stone at you while you're there. Run across the bridge and whack that wolf. Kill it, and grab that pod over to the left by the rope. You may just as well jump on the rope too. Make sure you get the green CP at the top, and then jump over by the chest. Jump across the ropes and then all the way down to kill the other wolf in this area. Ready? Go! There's another VERY large group of wolves around here. Rush over to the orange thing again and get the fire stones. As quickly as possible, race to the cave entrance and when you start to see wolves, target, throw, target, throw, target, throw and keep doing that until all are dead. There's plenty of mushrooms in this room if you need it. Get the courage points and that's about all you can do. Run back out and whack the pods along the left side of these walls. Then drop down for the red CP, and then hop up to the vine (long-jump might be necessary) for the pink one. Hope back. If it hasn't happened already, you need to trick the giants into making another little bridge for you. Stand by that tall pillar. Now run into the safety of the cave. When you come to the bridge, take a good look at it. You can use trial and error, but just for your information, it's weak in the center. So pole jump over that light coloured spot. See the save station? Save at it! Don't drop into that large hole, you'll want to go around it first. There's more wolves out here, so equip your sword and charge them! Run around the pillars to pick up all the courage points, and then hop up onto that small pillar, then jump to the bigger one. The pillars are gathered to shelter a weak spot in the floor, you DON'T want to drop down until you've got all the courage points up here, you can even save that little blue one on top of the weak spot for last. Once you've got them all though, stand on it and the stone giants will help you for the last time. Equip your stick and kill all those little bouncy guys down there, the reason I say to use the stick is because it only takes on hit to kill them regardless of what weapon you use, and the stick has the longest range. Now walk down the passage. Take out some more little bouncers. Whack those pods in the corner. Don't exit to the outside yet. See that little cave that steps up and there's a rope inside? Well go in it. You'll see the room with all those wolves that we eliminated before, and across a gap is a chest! Pole-jump to get to it. Inside is Expert Jump Tactics! Now you can deal more damage with your jump attack! Go back the way you cam in. Before you exit to the outside though, pull that block over underneath the vine hanging down in the central room. Jump up and grab the three sacks of Silver Pennies. NOW you can go outside :) Kill the two wolves and you should get another health bubble! The walkway leading alongside the cliff gets blasted away, so we'd better go through the cave down here. Make sure you got all the Courage Points around where the wolves were. Then head into the cave by where the path got blasted. After a small loading scene, check your stats. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Checkpoint! 400 Silver Pennies, 979 Courage Points, 8 Chests ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Okay, now head on down. Like that music? Fill up on health if you need it, grab the two chests, and the CP and head into the only exit you can (other than the one you came in by). We need to get some pieces to that gear setup don't we? Save and then go in the exit by the station. Oh well! I guess we won't be going back that way anytime soon! In this next big room drop down and kill all the little guys first. Around the fringes of this room is two chests, mushrooms, courage points, and a couple of pods, make sure you bust those open. Grab that shiny gold thing on the low ledge. This is your first part! Now up the rope in the center of the room. Hop onto a pillar and keep going that direction (away from the save station) and in a little covey is another part. Now head toward the save station! If you desire, save, but in any event, head to the right across those vines. The third one is brittle, so don't stay on it long! Grab the gold part and then open the chest. Now back toward the vines, you can walk on top of where they are hanging from. At the end of this little stair-step sequence is a Pink CP. Then head back down. Go past the treasure chest you last opened to a lone vine. Climb up it. Then across the ledges and down to that platform that is next to the platform with the save station on it! You can jump back and save if you wish. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Checkpoint! 530 Silver Pennies, 1075 Courage Points, 13 Chests ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Now head into that entrance that is at the top of the pillar, and down this area you'll come to a room with lots of big pillars. Grab that gold piece in front of you, but don't jump off just yet! Over to the left and down is a ledge with pods on it, and in these are some large sacks of Silver Pennies. Get them! And then head out across the pillars. At the very top is a chest, a gold piece, and a save station! Save. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Checkpoint! 630 Silver Pennies, 1081 Courage Points, 14 Chests ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Hey, we're back in that room again! Place all the pieces you found and a new path will open. Follow it. It is your destiny. There's a save point down here you just might want to use. But follow the ledge along and jump across the small pillars in the water. The water is poisonous so don't fall in! Besides that, you'd probably drown! These are the olde dwarf ruins. Hop onto the steps but don't go all the way up. Just go into that little niche and you'll be able to grab onto the wall and wiggle your way to the left. Jump onto the rope. Hop onto the wooden platforms and then across the broken bridge. Jump across some other platforms at the base of the receiving end of the bridge. You're at the base of a castle looking structure, with Courage points guiding your way. Make sure you get the ones that are actually sitting on the castle structure itself. Ah! Save point! Save there and before you continue up the steps into the castle area, jump out to that little pillar out there. Then onto the next large pillar, and then onto the vines. See where we're heading? Out to that Pink CP of course! Get it an hop back. Try not to drop too far though. Where were we? Oh yes, back by the save staion now, right? Go up the steps and head left first. Down some more steps that lead, hey! Right into the water! Ah, but to your right is a wooden raft with a red CP on it! And next to that is a small covey with three Silver Penny sacks! Oh joy! Now head back up and press B on that switch on the pillar. It triggers a small block to appear. Head up that block/step, and get the copper piece and open the chest. Directly opposite the chest you'll see some Courage points on top of some pillars. Get them by jumpin out there. There are two reds and one green. Make sure you pole jump! Now head back down towards the switch. Go down the stairs past it and off to your left is a pillar that is higher than you and has a chest sitting on top of it. It's out in the water. Jump to it and get it, plus the copper piece next to it. On a lower bit of land sitting just above water level is a pink CP, make sure you get that too and jump back to the stonework. Off all by itself to the left is another copper gear. Now go up the stairs and to the right is a little copper gear. The last you need! Before you place all the pieces though, open the chest. Now look above where you are supposed to place all those pieces you found. It looks like some sort of a button! How do you suppose we could trigger it eh? You guessed! Stones! This was the last thing for me to find in this level! It opens a door (back where you caused that stone step to appear) and inside it is a chest, 5 courage points, and 30 silver pennies! I remember that well because twice I got to the end of this level and that's all I had left to get for a perfect score! It was a relief that they were all in the same spot! Okay, go ahead and lower the bridge now. Before you jump off the end though..... ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Checkpoint! 745 Silver Pennies, 1466 Courage Points, 18 Chests ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Got it? Got it. Great. Phew! You can save here if you want of course. Go to the right and open up the chest. The only other little thing in this area is a silver piece for ANOTHER one of those gear boxes? Wow. Walk past the save station again toward the other end of the spectrum. At the far end is a small silver gear and around the corner of the pillar next to it is a green courage point! Head back up to that block. Now you don't have to move this block to get up to that small pillar with a chest on it (it's toward the area you jumped across the bridge from). If it makes it easier for you though, by all means, move it! Don't miss the green CP while you're up there! Now on the opposite side of the block you can jump up on top of a small square pillar, get up there and up to the next area. There's a large gear! See that white block up there? We don't need it. Just jump onto that little ledge on your right to get up to the high top. All that you can see from here is a gold treasure chest out on top of another one of the buildings. You'll want to pole jump out there, preferably left because it seems easier to land on top. Open up the chest for a LOT of Silver Pennies! Go around the side to where you can see a pillar down below, jump onto it and then pole jump out to that white CP. Jump back, try to carefully get down to ground level, save if you want and continue this way. Go past that pillar that you jumped on top of before, and turn to your right. Jump across to your right and you'll see some little CP and a chest on a little ledge too! Get the chest and jump back onto that pillar, now just stand there for a moment. See that little button? Throw a stone at it. Now continue up (probably to your right) and get another little silver component and the red CP. Keep going up and around to your right towards where that door you just opened up is. Trigger the switch here. The switch opens a door, and in the door is a chest and ANOTHER switch! Plus another piece you need. Before you go anywhere else, go around the left side of the building (the one you're on) and around the corner is a red CP. Now drop down and get the chest in that door you opened with a button, inside is Expert Sword Jump Tactics! Now get back on top and that pillar you raised up has opened a new path for you, so take it. Keep following the path and then go down the steps on your left towards that treasure chest. Go back up and place all the parts you found. Now go across the bridge but before you drop down, save at the save station right at the edge. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Checkpoint! 900 Silver Pennies, 1695 Courage Points, 25 Chests ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Now drop down and whack all those little bad guys. Pick up any health you need, grab the key, and go through the door! In here is lots of stuff to get so I'll let you roam, when you think you have it all come back to me and I'll check on your work. Are you waiting for me at the hole with the vine in it? Good. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Checkpoint! 1075 Silver Pennies, 1736 Courage Points, 26 Chests ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ So drop down and save if you wish. Ah! Finally! Back outside again! Follow the mountain path. You can't really mess this up, just keep going and grab the chest at the bottom of the second vine, get back up etc. It's your last chest and last Silver Pennies. Or should be anyway :S Gandalf will call to you, when the cutscene is over, make sure you grab the CP around the other side of that rock sticking up. Then up the path! A cutscene takes place once more and then goblins are attacking! You can either let Gandalf handle them, or join in yourself and whack them. When they are all gone, pick up the loot. Make sure you're quick or they'll disappear! Then exit the area via where those two pink CP are. You should have another health bubble by now! Before you end the game, talk to the first dwarf you see. It's Bofur, and you have his firewood. That's your last objective. Good lad! ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Checkpoint! 1100 Silver Pennies, 2200 Courage Points, 27 Chests ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Either talking to Gandalf (recommended) or running in the cave behind him you can end the level. Congratulations! Buy a Medicine Chest Upgrade. ========================================================================================= ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 5: Riddles in the Dark (CHPTR5) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ========================================================================================= ()Exit Caves ()-Extend Bridge ()-Lower Bridge ()Free Balfor ()-Go to Jail ()-Talk to Balfor ()-Hit Cell Door Switch ()Bribe Guard to Open Gate ()-Find Wart-Stone ()-Take Wart-Stone to Guard ()Activate Wart Lift ()-Find Key for Mugg-lift ()-Activate Mugg-Lift ()-Find Key for Grit-Lift ()-Activate Grit-Lift ()-Find Key for Dim-Lift ()-Activate Dim-Lift ()-Take Wart-lever to Wart-lift I got quite lost the first time through this but it's pretty simple really. Just follow what I say. If you haven't already figured it out, Bilbo will say something about a glowing blade and guess what?! You can use Sting to light your path! Follow the only route you can. Throw stones at the three bat things that shoot fireballs at you. You can target the first and third, and just manually throw one at the second one. There are a group of those snake things. An easy way to kill them is to jump attack one and patiently wait by the hole until you see the targeting mark appear in it. Then swing and you'll kill it before it even pops up! There are four of them, and then you'll come to a save point. I recommend saving here just in case you mess up on grabbing that rope/web thread hanging down. Get it? Got it? Good. Now pole jump out there and then jump into that cave. Inside is a health potion, an antidote potion, and a pink CP. Now you can drop down. The way I like to do this next part is to jump to the bottom and run madly around the room cutting the webs as I go, this triggers lots of spiders to come at you, and then you just equip your stick and you can whack them easy! The green ones will poison you, if that happens, use your antidote, but for heavens sake! Don't TRY to get poisoned! In this level, the things you break open (like the pods in the past two levels) are either boxes, pots, or these little cacoon looking things down here, make sure you whack them if you see it. Make certain that all the webs are cut, even the ones by that big door and that all the spiders are dead. Now you can climb up that little web/rope hanging at one end of the room. Go straight back first, cutting the two webs up here. That huge spider really isn't so scary after all, a jump attack and a couple of whacks will take it out fast! Collect your booty. Now backtrack and jump up that ledge to the right. Again, make sure you get those cacoons in the ground. Jump across the ropes provided and around and you're past the gate! Keep going and saveif you have everything. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Checkpoint! 35 Silver Pennies, 229 Courage Points, 0 Chests ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ See those crates on the left? The cracked ones are breakable and can be smashed with a blow from your sword or stick. Go near the bars and a cutscene will ensue. Easy enough right? Well, there's quite abit involved :) Take the only path provided, down the wooden platforms to the bottom. When you reach the last platform, instead of going down the ladder, take the boxes because then you'll be ready to fight! There are snakes around the perimeter, but the goblins are your main threat right now. Fight Bilbo Fight! Now take out the two snakes and follow the tunnel. Wow! What a grand view! And we have to get THERE!!!! To your right is some boxes. Then back past the save station is some blue CP leading to the left. Hop on and ride all the way around to pick up a green CP at the top. Then hop onto the lower lift when you get the opportunity. Kill the goblins down here and then grab the chest back by the lift you just rode down. Then go down the ladder by it. There's a goblin down here and a chest, with a box there too. Back up the ladder. Don't worry about the goblin throwing explosives at you from across the way. Just go around the right side of that huge column in the area and you'll see some blue CP leading the way down to a switch that will extend the bridge. Go across the bridge and if you think you might need it, get that shiny silver thing up on the little scaffold. It is Freezing stones and will temporarily stop you enemies in the tracks, allowing you ample time to hack them to death! Then clean up everything in this area, there is a box on a lower platform, a chest back by the Ice Rocks, and a box there too. More boxes in the corner. Lastly there is a blue chest. Save here. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Checkpoint! 165 Silver Pennies, 643 Courage Points, 4 Chests ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Jump onto the lifts. At the bottom of the first one (if you ride it all the way around) is a pink CP. Then jump onto the next set of lifts. At the peak of this on is a walkway kind of in the direction that the last save point was, get onto it and follow the large column you are against, clockwise. Hey! A box and a chest! How grand! If you look up on your way back you'll see a white CP silouetted against the "sky." If you know of an easy way to get this then please let me know, I did it by doing it the hard way I think :( I'll explain later. Go back to the lifts and this time take the other route, hopping onto that narrow beam with the green CP on it. Stay on the beam and walk out towards the end, jumping onto another and then up for a chest. Now go back and along the walkways again, following the green CPs. Beware of the platform with the grey boards in it though! These will break and you will plummet to your destruction if you're not careful (or running fast enough). Get the chest. About here you should get another health bubble! That is, if you've been getting perfects from the start.... Now back to the lifts and ride them to the top. You'll have to jump onto another set. Kill the two goblins up here. Follow the path along. Yes indeed, we might be able to use those barrels! But wait just a moment, keep going past the barrel on this side and into a HUGE nest of those snake things. Kill them all and climb to the top for a chest. Now go back and remove the barrel from where it lies. Hey! Our side of the bridge dropped down! Now how do you s'pose we could do the same for the other side when we can't get over there? Obvious answer? EXPLODING BARRELS! BANZAI! Just throw a stone at that red barrel. The explosion conveniently kills the goblin there too, but be quick and grab those CP or they'll disappear! Keep following the path along and you'll come to another group of those "snakes." Kill them, grab the blue CP by the edge and then save. If you have everything, then. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Checkpoint! 345 Silver Pennies, 865 Courage Points, 8 Chests ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Now go down the lift. Hop onto the next one and get the Pink CP, either when you jump onto this lift, or by riding it around. Then down to the floor and take out the goblin. A word to the wise: A jump attack with the stick can take out a lot of the snakes at once. Go back by the lifts, there is a small passageway there with some scaffolding and after climbing up a ladder, you'll reach some mushrooms, a chest and a box. Gotta catch 'em all! Then go back out and follow the cavern floor to some other rooms. Eliminate as you go. There are plenty of mushrooms around the next room so you'll be able to keep up on your health pretty well I should think. Get that red CP up on the platform and grab the rest of the treasures around the room. Shouldn't be too hard ;) At the end of it you come to two goblins and a save station. The only way down is by a ladder. Save if you wish and then go down this ladder. Ah! The gate! Uh-oh, it wasn't as easy as we thought was it? Well, on our way! Now back up the ladder and hey! Another ladder has dropped down over to the right! Well, don't just stand there gaping, go up it! Thank goodness for these blue CP to guide us!
