2.2.3.                   ANUBIS REX
------------------------------------------------------------
My High Score: 5000

    This is a pretty tough boss. The first part isn't too
hard; just run forward, try to avoid the spears, and don't
stop too much or you'll get hit by the hand following you.
In the second part, you'll face the giant statue of Anubis
Rex. There are 4 stages of this boss, each with a different
face and colored crystal on the forehead. They get
progressively harder, but after you beat a stage it'll let
you continue from there instead of having to beat all 4 from
scratch.
    There are 4 Rev Plates, 2 on your left and 2 on your
right. In the gaps between, fireballs fly in at regular
intervals. You'll need to rev each Plate until you hear it
click; after all 4 click, get back to the middle walkway and
Rev Roll straight at the heart of the statue. It's best to
leave one of the closer Rev Plates for last to give you more
time to hit the heart; if you don't hit it in time, you'll
need to rev the Plates again.
    After breaking the heart once, pick up any EXTRA LIFE or
health wedge that appears. In this stage, a whirlwind will
occasionally come from the statue down the walkway, and will
go towards the side that you're on. You can bounce over this
as it dips into the gaps, or you can attempt to jump to a
point on the walkway behind the whirlwind. In any case, it
shouldn't cause you much trouble while you work at hitting
the heart a second time.
    The third stage gets tricky. Fireballs will fly in from
the sky, targeting the Rev Plates in order from right to
left. After the fireball hits the leftmost Plate, a fireball
will fly in towards the near end of the middle walkway, and
then it will repeat the cycle. This is in addition to the
whirlwinds and the original fireballs in the gaps. Try to
keep track of which Plate is under fire, as these fireballs
are not easy to dodge without jumping to another Plate and
back.
    The fourth stage includes all the previous obstacles,
but now Anubis Rex will shoot beams out, sweeping from left
to right. This is very difficult to dodge, and requires
either a well-timed Butt Bounce or jumping to the far end of
the walkway near Anubis, where the beams will harmlessly
pass over you. With all this to deal with, the fourth stage
can be really frustrating, but you should have plenty of
lives by now to get the hang of it. One last hit to the
heart takes Anubis Rex down and finishes off the Ruins Area.
    Maximum Pac-Dots: 0

------------------------------------------------------------
2.3.                     SPACE AREA
------------------------------------------------------------

    The next area takes Pac-Man to outer space to rescue
Professor Pac. There's nothing too tricky here, but falling
becomes a big concern. Watch your step and be careful of the
many lasers. Timing is important when dealing with lasers
and the switches.

------------------------------------------------------------
2.3.1.                   SPACE RACE
------------------------------------------------------------
My High Score: 61900

    Pac-Man starts out next to a blue forcefield. Hit the
yellow switch to get rid of the forcefield and go left to
find 2 chests containing an EXTRA LIFE and 5 Pac-Dots. Use
the yellow switch on this side to get out. Jump over the 3
purple lasers to the right, pick up the 3 Pac-Dots on the
steps, and get the "P" above. Go right and bounce on the
PURPLE ALIEN, then get the 2 chests with 6 and 7 Pac-Dots.
Go right and get the 3 Pac-Dots by the wall of lasers, then
use the ramp or bounce over to pass the lasers. Destroy the
2 PURPLE ALIENS on the other side. The green switch will
open the wall for a LEMON and a health wedge.
    Use the yellow switch to open the blue forcefield in the
far wall. Go that way and pick up 3 Pac-Dots in a laser's
path. Get 5 more Pac-Dots in the chest before going to
CHECKPOINT #1. Head right past the moving lasers, and use
the yellow switch to temporarily create a forcefield floor
so you can reach CHECKPOINT #2. There are some green laser
columns here which will alternate on and off; make your way
past them, getting the 4 Pac-Dots and the chest containing
5 Pac-Dots. Use the steps against the wall to reach the "A".
    Go right again, getting 1 Pac-Dot and a health wedge in
the moving laser area. Kill the 2 PURPLE ALIENS, then use
the yellow switch to continue past the forcefield. The 4
chests on the steps here contain 2 APPLES, a LEMON, and a
health wedge. Ignore the CHERRY DOOR for now, and use the
ramp guarded by the laser. You'll land at CHECKPOINT #3. Hit
the yellow switch to make the laser column disappear, then
quickly go up the ledges for 4 Pac-Dots and a CHERRY. Come
back down and use the same yellow switch to create a floor
going left, back to the Cherry Door. The "C" is inside.
    Go back up the ledges where the Cherry was and go right.
On this platform are 2 PURPLE ALIENS and a chest holding a
GALAXIAN. Drop back down to the GALAXIAN DOOR by the yellow
switch to play the Hidden Maze (95 Pac-Dots; see Maze Mode,
Space Maze #4 for details).
    Continue past where the Galaxian was, avoiding any
lasers. You'll come to an area with vertically moving lasers
where you can get 10 Pac-Dots. Keep going, and pick up a
health wedge inside the next chest. A chest containing a
CHERRY sits past the steps, and the "M" will appear once you
open the chest. Get both before continuing right to
CHECKPOINT #4. Hit the yellow switch and go up the ledges
for a health wedge, then go right past a forcefield.
    Next to you will be a BANANA DOOR and a depressed blue
switch. Go to the near end of this area, grabbing the 6 Pac-
Dots guarded by lasers on the way. The chest to the left has
an EXTRA LIFE. Hit the blue switch here, then go back to the
one by the Banana Door and hit that one too. Part of the
floor will sink as Pac-Dots and a GHOST appear; the lasers
will now stay on. Get to the Power Pellet and eat the ghost
while getting the other Pac-Dots. Get the BANANA at the end
of the sunken path and use it to get the second "A" from the
Banana Door. Then hit the yellow switch at the near end, and
go past the forcefield on the right to find CHECKPOINT #5.
    Pass the depressed blue switch and cross the tilting
platforms to get to another blue switch, while killing the 4
PURPLE ALIENS on the way. Hit it and return to the depressed
one, which will be up. Hit it and go back across the
platforms, making sure to get the PEACH, ORANGE, STRAWBERRY,
CHERRY, and LEMON that are now floating between the
platforms. At the large platform with the green lasers, head
to the far wall where a green switch is to the left of a
BELL DOOR. Hit the switch to find Pac-Dots and 4 GHOSTS; eat
them with the Power Pellet.
    Now go up the steps of the tower, watching out for the
green lasers. A BELL will be in a recess halfway up, guarded
by a constant laser. A yellow switch at the top of the steps
(destroy the PURPLE ALIEN sitting on it) will remove the
laser and let you get the BELL safely. Drop back to the Bell
Door for the "N", then head back up the tower to get to the
Level Complete Token.
    Maximum Pac-Dots: 199

------------------------------------------------------------
2.3.2.                    FAR OUT
------------------------------------------------------------
My High Score: 56060

    Before hitting the yellow switch, destroy the 3 PURPLE
ALIENS and get the CHERRY and STRAWBERRY. Then hit the
switch, quickly going to the far-left where a forcefield
floor appears. Get 5 Pac-Dots from the chest and get back
before the floor disappears. Hit the switch again to make
the forcefield on the far wall disappear, and pass through.
2 lasers here guard a health wedge and 3 Pac-Dots.
    On a ledge to the right is an EXTRA LIFE in a chest. At
the far end, you'll see a wall of lasers that moves up some
small steps; carefully get the 6 Pac-Dots and get a LEMON
from the chest behind the lasers. Head right and cross some
tilting platforms; a PURPLE ALIEN will be in your path. Hit
the yellow switch to create a floor behind you to get the
"P". Continue right after that and get another EXTRA LIFE
from the next chest. You'll also cross CHECKPOINT #1.
    Go to the near end of this section and hit the green
switch to the right. The central platform on your left will
sink, making Pac-Dots and 3 GHOSTS appear. Clear these out
with the Power Pellet before going on. Go up the steps on
the far wall, watching for lasers while getting the health
wedge. Destroy the PURPLE ALIEN up here and hit the green
switch. Cross the walkway that appears, then use the laser-
guarded ramp to get to CHECKPOINT #2 and another PURPLE
ALIEN. Ignore the yellow switches and the GALAXIAN DOOR for
now.
    Cross the tilting platforms with fireballs, then pass
the GREEN ALIEN. Green aliens can not be bounced on, but you
can rev into them when their back is facing you. Climb the
steps for a chest carrying a GALAXIAN. Go back to the
Galaxian Door for the Hidden Maze (90 Pac-Dots; see Maze
Mode, Space Maze #5 for details).
    Go back to where the Galaxian was, and hit the green
switch at the end. Take the Dot Chain to CHECKPOINT #3, hit
the green switch, and use the Helivator to get past the
lasers. First, Helivator up 1 level, then go right and get
a PEACH in the chest. Helivator up 2 levels from the bottom
and get a full health wedge from a chest to the right. Go
up 3 levels from the bottom and go left to get a health
wedge from the chest; then go the right from there to get
the first "A".
    Now ride the Helivator all the way to the top. Hit the
blue switch nearby, drop to the bottom and hit the blue
switch there; the KEY should appear on your left. Go back
up to free the FRIEND and to get the Pac-Dots. Use the green
switch to lower the walkway on your right. Go across to find
2 PURPLE ALIENS and a chest with an APPLE inside. Return to
the APPLE DOOR by the green switch and get the "C" inside.
Go back right and touch CHECKPOINT #4.
    Head to the far end of this path to get 2 health wedges
from the 2 chests. On the ledge at the end, get a CHERRY
from the chest; the "M" will also appear nearby. After that,
head right past the tilting platforms and fireballs. The
yellow switch will create a forcefield floor in the back so
that you can get the EXTRA LIFE from the chest; however,
you'll need to do this very quickly because the floor
doesn't last for very long. Hit the blue switch, then
backtrack to the leftmost platform with a blue switch on it.
This switch will reveal an "A", a STRAWBERRY, and an ORANGE
between the tilting platforms.
    Go back to the yellow switch to shut off the laser
column temporarily; go up the ledges for 4 Pac-Dots and a
chest with a BANANA at the top. To the right is a BANANA
DOOR with an "N" behind it. Keep going right, and get a
chest with an EXTRA LIFE. Jump right to the large metal
platform with CHECKPOINT #5. Hit the green switch, and the
platform will transform into a maze area with 4 GHOSTS; try
to maximize your points with the 4 Power Pellets located in
the corners; it's very difficult to eat all 4 ghosts with
each of the 4 Power Pellets. After clearing out this area,
head right to find the Level Complete Token.
    Maximum Pac-Dots: 240

------------------------------------------------------------
2.3.3.                  GIMME SPACE
------------------------------------------------------------
My High Score: 58745

    You'll start at CHECKPOINT #1. Jump left and hit the
yellow switch, then take the light transporter to the bottom
floor. Get the "P" before hitting the yellow switch and
using the transporter to get back on top. Return to where
you started and hit the yellow switch to make a forcefield
floor appear. Head into the background; you can get 2 health
wedges from the 2 chests near the lasers. Climb on top of
the wall and get a CHERRY from the chest there.
    Head right across the tilting platforms. You'll pass a
B-Doing and a PURPLE ALIEN to reach CHECKPOINT #2. 3 more
PURPLE ALIENS are floating between the platforms to your
right. Keep going until the platforms lead upwards; follow
them to a chest with an APPLE inside. Continue upwards to
the first B-Doing and use it. Don't keep going up though.
Check behind each B-Doing here on the way up, and you'll
find the first "A" and a STRAWBERRY. Go all the way up to
get to CHECKPOINT #3.
    Go around to your left and you'll see a chest in front
of a steel column. Stand on top of the chest, then Butt
Bounce on it to grab the top of the column where the "C" is.
This might take some practice, but it'll help if you wait
until you're near the peak of the Butt Bounce before trying
to move towards the column. After getting the "C", make sure
to get the BANANA that was in the chest. Head right on the
walkway; avoid the fireballs that destroy segments of the
walkway. Next to the blue switches is a chest with an EXTRA
LIFE inside.
    Hit the first blue switch to make the far semi-circular
platforms settle. The short extensions that jut out into the
middle should be directly under the Power Pellets. If not,
then hit the other blue switch to reverse the platforms.
Once fixed, use the 4 Power Pellets to eat the 4 GHOSTS
multiple times. Don't forget the rest of the Pac-Dots and
the fruit; there are 2 ORANGES, a STRAWBERRY, and a CHERRY.
Once you've gotten everything, rev along one of the jutting
extensions to land inside the light transporter. You'll be
taken to CHECKPOINT #4.
    Go up on the left side of the laser; you can use the
Butt Bounce to get up from one ledge to the next. Pick up
the 2 health wedges on the way. At the top, hit the green
switch to lower 3 walkways. Take the left one. Defeat the 2
GREEN ALIENS and avoid the fireballs to get the "M", then
make your way back and take the right walkway. Cross the
tilting platforms and destroy the 3 PURPLE ALIENS on the
way, then get a BELL inside the chest after the platforms.
Head back to the BELL DOOR (the middle walkway) and open it
to get the second "A".
    Resume to the right until you reach CHECKPOINT #5 and a
chest with 6 Pac-Dots inside. You'll find another set of
B-Doing going up; there are plenty of items to get behind
the B-Doings. Go up 2 floors to find an APPLE in a chest on
the left, then rev to the right side for a health wedge. 3
floors up you'll find a chest with a BANANA inside, and you
can drop down and to the left to reach another health wedge.
Go back up and rev to the right for a chest with a PEACH in
it. Finally, go all the way up, then rev to the right past
the last B-Doing to find the "N" inside the tunnel.
    Make your way back to the top and defeat the 2 PURPLE
ALIENS there, then open the chest for a LEMON. Hit the green
switch on the left to make the walls open, and use the Power
Pellet to eat the 4 GHOSTS that appear. Hit the green switch
on the right near the GALAXIAN DOOR to open up the way to
the right. Follow this path. The blue lights won't hurt you.
Jump onto the floating sphere at the end of the path, and
use it to get on top of the platforms. Cross the platforms
to the left and get the GALAXIAN, then return to the
Galaxian Door for the Hidden Maze (100 Pac-Dots; see Maze
Mode, Space Maze #6 for details).
    After the maze, go to the near end of this platform and
head right on the top of the tunnel. Kill the 2 GREEN ALIENS
as you pass them, then cross the tilting platforms and the
spheres to reach the Level Complete Token.
    Maximum Pac-Dots: 150

------------------------------------------------------------
2.3.4.                 KING GALAXIAN
------------------------------------------------------------
My High Score: 46500

    There's not much strategy to the first half of this
boss; as long as you can shoot fairly rapidly, you'll easily
make it past the enemies and asteroids. Simply blast your
way through, and try to grab as many fruits as you can. When
you start seeing a large spaceship, you should also notice a
small ship like the one you're standing on. Get to it as
soon as you can because it holds the only CHECKPOINT for the
level.
    After the Checkpoint, avoid the blue lasers and try to
shoot all the enemies. Their shots become a little more
difficult to avoid because of the limited space, but you
should be able to grab some health wedges and some BELLS
along the way. At the end of the spaceship, ignore the other
enemies and aim straight at the head of the ship; it'll
break away from the rest and you'll be facing King Galaxian.
    For this boss, the screen will "sway" from side to side;
learn the range of your movement and shooting so you can
adjust as the boss moves. Simply blast at the 4 pods on the
ship's shoulders. After the first one is destroyed, King
Galaxian will zoom out and send more enemies at you. Watch
out for them and the shots they send at you as you destroy
all of them. Then King Galaxian will zoom in so you can
destroy another pod. Be careful of his tractor beam; just
sweep backwards and in the opposite direction that it's
moving in order to avoid it.
    The enemies get harder, as they start getting equipped
with shields. King Galaxian will also start shooting at you
after the second pod is destroyed. Do your best to avoid
everything and blast away at the last pod. You should have
enough health at this point, since you gain one health after
destroying a pod. It shouldn't take too many tries. Once the
King is down, return to Ghost Island to face the Funhouse!

------------------------------------------------------------
2.4.                   FUNHOUSE AREA
------------------------------------------------------------

    This area isn't quite as much fun as you would expect
from a Funhouse. It's really easy to lose a life by falling
here, especially around the spinning platforms. Use their
rotation to help you jump farther. Many switches here will
affect which way things are going, so pay attention to what
each switch does. Jumping will play a big part in making it
past here, so don't be too reckless.

------------------------------------------------------------
2.4.1.                CLOWNING AROUND
------------------------------------------------------------
My High Score: 60050

    From the start, head right across the 3 spinning
platforms and get 7 Pac-Dots from the chest next to the
depressed blue switch. Keep going right past the steps
moving up and down; ignore the 2 chests in the far wall for
now. Hit the blue switch at the end to raise the steps and
then go left. At the top of the steps, you should be able to
see below where the other blue switch was; it should now be
up. Drop down on the near side of the steps and fall back
onto that ledge. Hit the blue switch for an EXTRA LIFE, then
return to the other blue switch and climb the steps again.
    The first chest in the wall is a health wedge; the
second is an Ultra Butt-Bounce. At the top of the steps,
go right past the CHERRY DOOR. Destroy the 2 CLOWN PILOTS
(you can use the Ultra Butt-Bounce) before getting a CHERRY
from the chest near CHECKPOINT #1. Reutrn to the Cherry Door
for the "P".
    After Checkpoint #1 there will be 5 spinning platforms
with green switches. The easiest way to hit the switches is
to bounce in one spot along the edge of the platform and
wait for the switch to move underneath you. The first four
switches will give you 6 Pac-Dots each; the last switch will
give you a MELON for the MELON DOOR in the back. Open the
door for the first "A".
    Next will be 2 large wheels with heat panels; jump
across to the far ledge where another CHERRY DOOR is. To the
right is a BUMPER CAR; these can only be destroyed by an
Ultra Butt-Bounce or by revving into them and knocking them
off the edge. Past the Bumper Car is CHECKPOINT #2. Several
spinning platforms and 2 CLOWN PILOTS are to the right. You
can jump onto the wall behind Checkpoint #2, jump from there
onto the narrow wall on the right, and then from there to
the blue switch. This will make things a little faster than
taking the spinning platforms.
    Hit the blue switch to move a platform. There is a ledge
hidden in the wall behind you; jump to it on the rightmost
part, then walk left for a hidden EXTRA LIFE behind the hot
pipe. Make your way back to the middle of the spinning
platform area for a CHERRY. Also, go on the walkway that
moved and get the "C" from the chest at the end. Don't
forget to destroy the Clown Pilots. Now head back left to
the Cherry Door and hit the green switch inside. Take the
Dot Chain that appears to get on top of the wheels for 2
EXTRA LIVES.
    Return to the spinning platforms, this time going past
them to the right. The yellow switch will raise some steps
for you; follow them for another CHERRY. Jump to the next
platform where the BUMPER CAR is; kill it and hit the green
switch to reveal 2 Dot Chains. The left chain will get you
8 Pac-Dots and an EXTRA LIFE; the right chain will get you
8 Pac-Dots, an EXTRA LIFE, and a MELON. Go right from there
to CHECKPOINT #3. Use the green switch to make some Pac-Dots
appear, then get a Power Pellet from the chest and eat the
4 GHOSTS. Go up the next set of steps to CHECKPOINT #4.
    Hit the green switch for yet another Dot Chain; this one
takes you to the "M" and an ORANGE. To your right is a
health wedge before 3 spinning platforms with green switches
on them. Hit these switches for a CHERRY, a MELON, and an
ORANGE. CHECKPOINT #5 is next, followed by 2 more wheels.
Cross the wheels and go right. Jump to the moving clown
tongue to a spinning platform with a green switch; hit the
switch for a BANANA. Get to the next spinning platform and
get a CHERRY from that switch, then a MELON from the next
one. Cross the final tongue to reach CHECKPOINT #6.
    Drop down into the next area with 4 BUMPER CARS. Hit the
3 blue switches in the corners to lower the stairs in the
far-right corner. Open the BANANA DOOR first to get the
second "A", then go up the steps to CHECKPOINT #7. Head to
the right to destroy 3 CLOWN PILOTS and get a GALAXIAN from
the chest after the spinning platform. Return to the
GALAXIAN DOOR by Checkpoint #7 and play the Hidden Maze
(103 Pac-Dots; see Maze Mode, Funhouse Maze #4 for details).
    Go back right and up the far steps. Go left past some
cannons and targets and hit the blue switch, then backtrack
to get the Pac-Dots, a Chrome Ball, and a BANANA. Go left
and up the steps to a similar walkway with cannons and
targets. Again, hit the blue switch and backtrack for Pac-
Dots, a health wedge, and a BANANA. Go right and up the
steps. Do the same thing for 3 more Pac-Dots, another
BANANA, and a MELON. Finally, go up the next set of steps
and to the MELON DOOR for the "N" before reaching the Level
Complete Token.
    Maximum Pac-Dots: 217

------------------------------------------------------------
2.4.2.                  BARREL BLAST
------------------------------------------------------------
My High Score: 43660

    Go past the steam to see a big tower of rotating sets of
platforms. Go up to the top and get a STRAWBERRY in a chest,
then drop back to the floor and get the "P" behind the
STRAWBERRY DOOR. Go up the tower again and to the right to
CHECKPOINT #1. Head past some steam. Cross the 4 wheels
behind you, and try to bounce on the 3 CLOWN PILOTS in
between. At the end is a chest with a health wedge.
CHECKPOINT #2 is to the right. Then go past some more steam
and go up on the next platform. On the right is a green
switch that will move another platform. Head left and onto
that platform; destroy the CLOWN PILOT and break the chest
for a BANANA. Return to the BANANA DOOR for a Chrome Ball.
Use this to quickly head up the stairwell to your right
without getting hurt by the steam. CHECKPOINT #3 and a chest
with a health wedge are at the top.
    Cross the 4 far wheels; steam will shoot in between the
wheels. The first "A" is in the chest past the wheels. Hit
the green switch to the right to move a platform, then take
the platform to a Chrome Ball and a LEMON. After CHECKPOINT
#4 is a treadmill with steam shooting at you. Inside the
LEMON DOOR after the treadmill is a green switch that will
set the previous platform in motion. Return to it and ride
it up, then cross the next treadmill to reach CHECKPOINT #5
in front of the STRAWBERRY DOOR. Cross the 3 near wheels
with heat panels to get the STRAWBERRY from a chest, and
return to the door for the "C". Cross the wheels again and
take the Helivator on your right to go up. Avoid the steam
and get to a chest with a health wedge, then continue
Helivatoring up. Use the ramp at the top to get to
CHECKPOINT #6.
    Cross the treadmill and hit the green switch. Cross the
next treadmill to a chest with the "M" inside, and then keep
going until you reach CHECKPOINT #7. You'll see another
tower of rotating platforms; get to the top and to the right
where a chest with a GALAXIAN is. Also hit the blue switch
to raise some steps to your left before dropping down to the
GALAXIAN DOOR for the Hidden Maze (104 Pac-Dots; see Maze
Mode, Funhouse Maze #5 for details). Return up the tower and
go left this time and up the steps. Go up and right again to
reach CHECKPOINT #8 and get the second "A" inside the chest
nearby. Hit the yellow switch on the right, then take the
Helivator up past the steam. Keep making your way up; there
will also be 2 chests with health wedges on the way.
    At the top, break the 2 chests for a Chrome Ball and a
BANANA. The yellow switch here will raise the Helivator. Go
right to CHECKPOINT #9, then cross the 4 near wheels with
heat panels. Hit this yellow switch to lower a Helivator;
take it up. The yellow switch at the top will raise the
Helivator. Now cross the tops of the wheels and get the "N"
behind the BANANA DOOR, then hit the blue switch to make a
Dot Chain appear by the yellow switch you just passed. Go
back to it and use the chain to get the BELL, then cross
the wheels one more time and get a KEY from the BELL DOOR.
    Head right to find CHECKPOINT #10. Follow this way past
the treadmills and steps until you get to a BANANA chest and
CHECKPOINT #11. Carefully cross the 3 half-wheels behind
you. It's easiest to start crossing once the first section
of the closest wheel is at the bottom. Then use the ramp to
reach the next set of 3 half-wheels; again, wait until the
first section is ready to stand on. Touch CHECKPOINT #12
before taking the ramp to the next set of half-wheels.
Finally, climb the steps to the Level Complete Token to end
the level.
    Maximum Pac-Dots: 110

2.4.3.                   SPIN DIZZY
------------------------------------------------------------
My High Score: 53630

    Go right past the roadblocks and the falling floors and
hit the green switch. Go down the steps quickly and get the
Power Pellet on the landing; try to eat all 4 GHOSTS, but
it's difficult. Get the remaining Pac-Dots, but be wary of
the falling steps. At the bottom of the stairs is a chest
with a LEMON inside. Take it to the top of the stairs for an
EXTRA LIFE behind the LEMON DOOR. Go back down and use the
B-Doing to reach a platform and hit the green switch there;
this will make two platforms circle the one you're on. If
you take these platforms to the bottom-right, you'll find
some balloons and a chest with a full health wedge. Use the
balloons to get back, but you'll need some good timing as
the balloons will pop after standing on them for a time. Go
to the top-left afterwards, where you'll find a chest with
an EXTRA LIFE and more balloons. When you're ready, head to
the right of the middle platform past a CHERRY DOOR. Go to
CHECKPOINT #1 and hit the yellow switch. Helivator right to
CHECKPOINT #2 and another yellow switch.
    From here on, be careful. The next Checkpoint is far
away, and it's very easy to lose a life somewhere in
between. Take the Helivator back to the left past the
steam that has been activated. Go up the steps and get to
the spinning platform piece on the right. Cross 2 more
spinners to reach a stacked spinner with a CHERRY on top.
Get it and go back to the Cherry Door for the "P". Resume to
the right past the stacked spinner and hit the green switch
on the next spinner. You can take the 2 moving platforms to
the right, but if you go up the far steps with the steam
shooting, you can get several items. Do this the first time
you get here, and take the moving platforms if you lose a
life later and half to redo this part. Up the steps are some
Pac-Dots, then cross the balloons to get the first "A" and a
health wedge. Cross the next balloons and go down the steps
for more Pac-Dots. You'll be on a spinner (the moving
platforms are to your left) with a CLOWN PILOT. Kill the
Clown Pilot before heading right to some spinners and steam.
Get an EXTRA LIFE on top of the stacked spinner in the
middle.
    Keep going and you'll come to another spinner with a
CLOWN PILOT. Get to the spinner behind you, and be careful
not to hit the heat panels. Use the rotation to jump to the
chest between the heated walls and get a PEACH. Jump to the
spinner on your right, and use it to jump to the PEACH DOOR.
Hit the green switch inside and take the Dot Chain to a
chest holding the "C". Cross the balloons to the right to
another spinner and CLOWN PILOT. Continue right to another
steam area with spinners. There's another EXTRA LIFE on top
of the stacked spinner in the middle. Keep right and you'll
reach another spinner piece with a CLOWN PILOT. CHECKPOINT
#3 is finally to your right.
    Follow the curved path to the right past some cannons
and falling floors. Here you'll find a rotating wheel
guarded by heat panels and steam. Make your way to the
platform in the center and hit the green switch. This will
reverse the direction of the wheel and will set a platform
to the right in motion. Go up the platform and jump to the
balloons on the left. Hit the green switch to make some Pac-
Dots appear; the chest on the left is a Power Pellet for you
to eat the 2 GHOSTS. The chest on the right is a full health
wedge. Go back to the moving platform and go right instead.
Take the steps down to the GALAXIAN DOOR and a BUMPER CAR.
Go right past a CLOWN PILOT and break the chest for an Ultra
Butt-Bounce. This will make it easier to destroy the next
BUMPER CAR to the right. Use the B-Doings to go up to the
top, where a blue switch is all the way to the right. This
will set platforms below in motion, and will also give you a
Dot Chain to take back down to the bottom.
    Return up the steps by the Galaxian Door and cross the
treadmills to the right. Hammers will come down on parts of
the treadmills, so watch the timing and use the treadmill
space to stay just out of reach. Keep going past a treadmill
with a two-way hammer. The next treadmill with a two-way
hammer will have a GALAXIAN in the middle, which you can
take back to the Galaxian Door for the Hidden Maze (97 Pac-
Dots; see Maze Mode, Funhouse Maze #6 for details). After
the maze, cross the treadmills again. Go past some more
cannons and falling floors to find CHECKPOINT #4. The next
Checkpoint is far away again, but this time it's not as
hard.
    Instead of going right, hit the yellow switch so you
can Helivator to another yellow switch (this one will bring
the Helivator back). Go right and use the B-Doings to get to
a BUMPER CAR. The chest next to it contains a full health
wedge. B-Doing right again, and hit the green switch for
some Pac-Dots. The chest to the right has a Power Pellet for
eating the 2 GHOSTS. After that, hit the blue switch at the
right end, then use the B-Doings to get back to the
Helivator. This time, head right from the far yellow switch.
Cross the spinners and grab the EXTRA LIFE on top of the
stacked spinner. Kill the CLOWN PILOT further on.
    The next set of spinners has heat walls, so be careful.
Two small spinners are in between the two large spinners,
and a LEMON DOOR is behind them. Keep going right past more
spinners and a CLOWN PILOT. At the next spinner, you'll see
a chest on top of the heat wall. Get the LEMON inside and go
back to the Lemon Door for the "M". Go back right. The
spinner after the one with the chest has a green switch. Hit
it to make a PEACH appear. Then jump to the right where a
platform is moving back and forth.
    You can take two ways here: near or far. It's better to
take the far route because it's easier and you can destroy
a CLOWN PILOT without having to go back. Take the 2 spinners
and kill the Clown Pilot, then get up to the green ledge
with a PEACH DOOR and the "A" inside. If you take the near
route, you'll go past two spinner pieces and then use a ramp
to get to this ledge. There's also a CLOWN PILOT looping
between this ledge and the ramp; try to bounce on it without
falling below. To the right of the green ledge is a spinner
with a green switch that will make another platform to the
right move back and forth. Use it to continue right.
    Cross the spinners here, but be careful of heat walls
and steam. Some of the spinners will have an inner part that
spin in the opposite direction. Get past this area for
CHECKPOINT #5. Go right along a short path past cannons and
falling floors to reach CHECKPOINT #6 and a MELON DOOR. To
the right is another large rotating wheel. The green switch
in the center will reverse its direction and will make the
platform beside it move up and down. Take the platform up to
a rotating set of platforms. Make your way left, destroying
the 2 CLOWN PILOTS circling with you. The green switch to
the left will reverse the platforms, and will reveal a Dot
Chain leading to a MELON. The "N" is behind the Melon Door
below.
    Return to the rotating platforms above and take the
moving platform on the left. There's a wedge to the far left
on top of the Melon Door; jump to it if you need it.
Otherwise, go up to the next rotating set of platforms,
along with 2 more CLOWN PILOTS. The green switch to the
right will also reverse the direction of this set. Get to
the moving platform in the middle and ride it up to the
FRIEND. Release Baby Pac before going to the Level Complete
Token.

2.4.4.                   CLOWN PRIX
------------------------------------------------------------
My High Score: 17600

    Before moving on the Factory, you have to win in the
Clown Prix. The controls are simple; use the direction pad
to control your steering, and slow down by pressing in the
opposite direction. Use the O button to use Power Pellets to
get a turbo boost. Power Pellets can be picked up on the
course, but do not come back if you retry. Avoid bombs if
you can, and grab as many fruits as possible. You don't need
to finish very quickly, but speed does matter. Handle sharp
turns by slowing down and turning at the same time so that
you don't fall off the edge. Don't worry about most of the
clowns, as they're easy to pass up and many fall off the
course. You can pick up a ton of points if you get a lot of
fruit. I suggest trying to pick up most of the stuff and
sacrifice a life; however, don't just go slow, because if
the first car crosses the finish line and you're still on
the course, you'll lose the race and have to start all over
(without keeping Power Pellets and fruit). If you think
you're about to lose, simply fall off the edge, and you'll
be able to retry without losing any fruit or Power Pellets.

2.5.                    FACTORY AREA
------------------------------------------------------------

    This area is filled with obstacles and enemies. Be
careful around hot pipes and steam, watch out for falling
debris, and pay attention to Sparkers. Debris can kill you
in one hit if it knocks you down into a pit. There are a lot
of water areas here too, and they're infested with sharks
and hot pipes. Getting 100% here is pretty difficult, so
don't be worried if it takes several tries.

------------------------------------------------------------
2.5.1.                 PERILOUS PIPES
------------------------------------------------------------
My High Score: 60030

    Destroy the SPARKER walking around in front of you.
Sparkers come in two types; one shaped like a gun with the
spark pointing out, and one standing straight with the spark
pointing up. You can rev into Sparkers if the spark is up
or away from you, and you can bounce on them only if the
spark is pointing out. After killing the Sparker, get 5 Pac-
Dots from the chest nearby. Jump on top of the crates behind
you to get a health wedge from the chest, then drop down and
kill another SPARKER to the right. Hit CHECKPOINT #1 before
riding the Magna-Mover across. Hit the green switch and
follow the Dot Chain to an EXTRA LIFE, then return across
the Magna-Mover.
    Ride the next Magna-Mover down and jump to the ledge on
the left. Get a health wedge from the chest, then break the
crate behind it for an EXTRA LIFE. Ride back up to the chest
with 10 Pac-Dots. Go up and right from there to the top
chest and get another health wedge. Drop to the ledge below
that for a LEMON inside a chest, then drop down to the floor
where a SPARKER awaits. The next chest holds 10 Pac-Dots.
Avoid the Magna-Mover above you and go down to a LEMON DOOR
with the "P" inside. Head back up and take the ramp to the
right to find CHECKPOINT #2 by a PEACH DOOR. Hit the green
switch by the crates. Get the Pac-Dots, eat the 4 GHOSTS,
and take the PEACH back to the Peach Door. Hit the blue
switch inside. Take the Helivator in front of the door down
to the first "A". After that, come back up and resume right.
Take the ramp to the GALAXIAN DOOR and CHECKPOINT #3 nearby.
    Avoid the steam and hot pipes; pick up a full health
wedge behind them. Go right to destroy a SPARKER, then pass
some more hot pipes to find CHECKPOINT #4. Kill the SPARKER
behind you, head right past more pipes for a wedge, kill
another SPARKER, then hit the yellow switch. Head to the
far wall and get the GALAXIAN. Hit the blue switch for a Dot
Chain taking you to an Ultra Butt-Bounce, and then blast the
2 SPARKERS below. You can get CHECKPOINT #5 either now or
after returning to the Galaxian Door to complete the Hidden
Maze (101 Pac-Dots; see Maze Mode, Factory Maze #4 for
details).
    Head to the right of Checkpoint #5 across some large
pistons. Jump to the far crates and get on the Magna-Mover
for an EXTRA LIFE. Then continue right across more pistons;
destroy 2 SPARKERS along the way. Hit the blue switch by
CHECKPOINT #6, then backtrack to get all the Pac-Dots. Don't
forget to get the "C" near where the Extra Life was (on the
Magna-Mover). Make your way back to Checkpoint #6 and go
right from there. Avoid the pipes and steam and destroy 2
more SPARKERS. B-Doing to the blue switch, hit it, and drop
off the near end of the ledge for some Pac-Dots. Then
B-Doing back up to the top. Get a Chrome Ball by the water;
drop to get the Pac-Dots at the far end, then quickly break
the 3 chests underwater for a health wedge, a BANANA, and an
EXTRA LIFE. Exit the pool and return to the top, heading to
the right past the pool. Hit the green switch behind the
BANANA DOOR; eat the GHOST and get the Pac-Dots. Then go to
CHECKPOINT #7.
    To the right is a SPARKER, and the blue switch will make
the "M" appear overhead. Follow the near ledge with the
SPARKER to CHECKPOINT #8, then hit the far blue switch. Use
the ramp to the left to catch the Dot Chain and the "M".
Proceed right - more steam, 3 SPARKERS, and a health wedge.
Break the funny-looking crate for an EXTRA LIFE. Go near
from the crate to find a chest holding a LEMON. This area
has 2 GHOSTS below and 2 Magna-Movers floating about. Head
up to the far wall and hit the blue switch behind the LEMON
DOOR. Get on the Magna-Mover nearby to get the "A". Drop
down and hit the blue switch below, then get on the near
Magna-Mover to grab the Power Pellet. Finish off the Ghosts
and the Pac-Dots. Then go to the near end of this area, and
jump onto the ledge for a chest containing a BELL. Kill the
SPARKER to the right before Helivatoring up to CHECKPOINT
#9.
    At the top, kill the SPARKER and get the STRAWBERRY. Go
across the near rafter to the other side and kill the
SPARKER there. The chest has a health wedge inside. Hit the
blue switch, then drop to the floor below where the 2 GHOSTS
are. Eat the Ghosts and grab the Pac-Dots, then open the
STRAWBERRY DOOR to hit the blue switch. The wall to the
right will explode; head through the opening, kill the
SPARKER, then dive into the water for the "N". Return to the
top across the rafters. Keep going right and destroy the
last SPARKER before opening the BELL DOOR. The blue switch
inside will reveal an EXTRA LIFE. To the right of the door
is the Level Complete Token.
    Maximum Pac-Dots: 271
