Cheats, codes, hints, tips, tricks, Easter eggs and game help

Crab Robot Boss points

When playing against the Crab Robot on the first level, get him to start smoking, then continue going to the right. When there are less than 30 seconds left on the timer, quickly kill the boss. He will be defeated when you stop. Quickly press Start, then keep pressing A, B, C then D to get over 500 000 points.

Stage 1: Hidden areas

Near the beginning of the first stage, there is a submarine floating in a pool of water. Hold Down to walk into this area and get into the submarine into the hidden underwater section. The next hidden area is located where the boat is found. Instead of getting onto the boat, get onto the ledge above it to find a secret hatch. Go inside the hatch to enter a cave-like area. Note: Every time you complete a secret area, you will go directly to the Crab Boss, therefore you cannot visit both hidden areas during the same turn.

Stage 2: Thunder Cloud

Around the middle of Stage 2, you will see a spot on a low area of ground where there are two prisoners next to a man in a business suit. Hold Diagonal Down/Forward to crawl down to this area and save them. Enemies won't be able to get you down here. When you rescue the man in the suit, he will pull out a cellular phone and call in two bodyguards with suitcases which contain a gold coin and the Thunder Cloud. To use the Thunder Cloud, shoot your gun when the cloud hovers over an enemy.

Stage 2: Hidden area

Around the end of the middle part of Stage 2 you will see a sign above a frozen-shut cave reading "ICEMAN". Walk to the left to go over and shoot the ice wall blocking the entrance. Inside are numerous "ice men" and at the end of the cave is a buried Elephant Slug, frozen in the ground, which you can set free and ride.

Cure zombie or mummy status

To change from a zombie to a human, use the Med-Kit item found on enemies or in boxes. To change from a mummy to a human, find the bottle of Holy Water found on enemies or in boxes.

Helper monkey

Throughout the game you will find wooden crates containing a monkey wielding a gun. This monkey can be used to help you fight enemies, however, should not be fully relied upon as he often gets distracted.
