Walkthrough
  1. 1
    From the red doors, find a pot with a Life Max Up on the left.
  2. 2
    Explore the top portion of the Outer Wall. You will encounter a Nova Skeleton above.
  3. 3
    Proceed to an empty room; this room in the normal castle contained a secret elevator, which does not exist here. You can break the wall to get a Dim Sum set.
  4. 4
    To reach the room above, go around and use the mist to pass through a steel grate. Inside, you will find a shotel (a sword-like weapon that can be thrown) and a Hammer.
  5. 5
    Exit this room and explore the rest of the area. The two rooms and the Heart Max Up are the only points of interest here. The telescope is not present.
  6. 6
    Descend into the bottom portion of the Outer Wall.
  7. 7
    You will return to the area with the Life Max Up pot. Drop down to continue along the Outer Wall.
  8. 8
    Find another pot containing a luck potion.
  9. 9
    In the room to the right, you will encounter several Paranthropus enemies. These enemies drop an item only obtainable after beating the game.
  10. 10
    The next room to the right leads to a save room.
  11. 11
    The room at the bottom left leads to a boss fight with The Creature.

Boss Fight: The Creature

The Creature is a relatively simple boss fight. Initially, he will raise his hammer and drop it down when you approach to attack. After a few of these attacks, he will curl into a ball and roll around the entire screen twice. He can be damaged during this rolling phase. You can jump over him and attack him as he stops rolling, or attack diagonally while mid-air. These two attack patterns will repeat until he is defeated.

Walkthrough Continued:

  1. After the boss fight, exit the room and continue down the Outer Wall.
  2. Outside The Creature's room, find a shield potion.
  3. In the next room, jump onto the platform above and walk left. Find a high potion in a pot.
  4. Your next destination is the library. Continue down the Outer Wall.
  5. You will pass a few Stone Skulls and a Jack O’ Bone before reaching the red door on the right, which leads to the Long Library.

Suggested Level: 44

Items Found: Library card, Opal, Turquoise, Neutron bomb, Badelaire, Staurolite, Resist Fire, Resist ice, Resist Stone.

Tips
  • The Paranthropus enemies drop a special item only after you have beaten the game.
  • The shotel is a powerful throwing weapon.
  • The Creature's hammer attack has a deceptive animation; he is swinging at you when it appears he is just bringing it down.
  • You can damage The Creature while he is rolling.
