"You will either love or hate this game. No in-betweens."

Q: Everyone knows about crouching on that mushroom in area 1, right?
A: Apparently not. Anyway, there's a mushroom in area one that, if you
   crouch on it, gives you the firesword, dragon helmet, and lion's
   shield. It's not hard to find.

Q: Do the plants that grow in my way hurt me?
A: No; in fact, if you hit its flower, it will give you hearts, which
   refill your life meter.

Q: How do I kill the tree at the end of stage 1?
A: Having a weapon that shoots makes this bit much easier. Continually
   move left 'n' right, evading fireballs while firing away at the
   tree's mouth.

   If you don't have a shooting-weapon, then you'll have to avoid the
   killer tree and get the magic lamp. Go down the first pit and to the
   left; the magic lamp is concealed in the bricks. Go up (only way you
   can go) and to the right as far as you can. Drop down into the pit
   and go right, and go through the path of breakable bricks to the
   right. The magic lamp takes you to the next level.

Q: What about the golem in stage 2?
A: As soon as you start, go after the head.. it'll pop pretty easily.
   Jump up on the second-highest step and use your weapon when the body
   approaches. Duck when the body punches..

Q: blah blah fire octopus blabla stage 3 etc..
A: Get a shooting weapon (bow+arrow; red sword) beforehand. The octopus
   attacks the exact way the tree does, and you can avoid the attack if
   you swim to the top left, where the fireballs can't reach you. As
   soon as the fireballs stop, swim down and fire away. repeat as
   necessary.

Q: ... threeheaded dragon?
A: Fly to the top of the screen; the dragon follows you. When the cloud
   reaches the top, angle down to the lower-right corner, face left, and
   start firing with whatever weapon you have.

Q: ... ice-spider?
A: Go to the right side of the screen.. if you have the wings, just fly
   next to the spider and shoot arrows into its mouth. If you don't have
   the wings, stand near it, and jump and shoot into the mouth. The
   bow+arrow is the only weapon that works!

Q: ... red lobster?
A: Stand in the middle of the bottom-right platform, face left, and fire
   away until the monster dies. Red sword is best; ball+chain or fire
   sword is ok as well. Remember: do not pick up the key after the
   lobster is beaten!

Q: How do I find my way through this labyrinth?
A: You have to find the white harp and the lamp to escape. Find the room
   that's made up mostly of blocks. Break all the blocks.. on the wall
   you'll find a mural of a lady in a red dress. Catch the white harp
   when it appears (the room will flash yellow). Continue to the right,
   and break the stones to find the lamp.

Q: OK, what about the final boss?
A: - you must have the white harp from the labyrinth.
   - the best weapon to use is the red sword.
   - attack medusa's shield until it's destroyed.
   - crouch on medusa's left shoulder, face right, and hit its elbow to
     destroy the sword.
   - now turn, and face medusa, and hit the the area just above its mouth
     to stop the fireballs.
   - finally, stand with your back against its mouth, and swing your
     sword as the heads approach. Kill off the heads and you're done.
