| 1. Get the light bulb, and then
the torch to allow you to see
in the darkroom to the right of
the swimming pool. 2. Get the cork, then the popgun to allow you past the soldiers. 3. Get box key and honey pot, return to first screen and stand on the Jack-in-a-Box; you're then able to get the teddy bear. 4. Use the Teddy to help unlock the door in the dalek room. 5. In the dalek room you will see a short rope. Jump at this with the rope and it will lengthen. 6. The duck in the swimming pool is now accessible, although difficult. 7. Try using the duck to get stones from the castle, they might help with the catapult. (Paul Robinson, Darren Robinson in Your Spectrum issue 20 , Page 72) 1718 To get to Lost and Found, get the tennis racket and go into the room on the 4th Floor. You must play like Breakout and get all the blocks away then the Glove will drop. Then go to the 1st Floora dn get to the Glove room, jump at the middle of the door and you're in Lost and Found! (Matthew Davies in Your Sinclair issue 01 , Page 46) 3947 Need help getting past the robots? Get the pop gun and the cork (the screen will say POP GUN IS LOADED), then go to the screen with the robots, which will then let you past. Need help with the sandcastle? Go into the castle and get the flag, then take the rubber duck and the flag to the sandcastle, and swop the flag for the pebbles. (Barry Allen in Your Sinclair issue 30 , Page 29) 4357 To get the honey pot, go to the room on the right of the sports one (or on the left of the fort), jump on the third chain from the left, then on the table. Then just walk through it, and., you've got it! (Nicholas Juliard in Your Sinclair issue 40 , Page 34) 4615 Q: How do you get the rubber duck? A: Get the money pot from the room right of the sports department and the box key from the room with all the vacuum cleaners and go back to the start room. Jump on the Jack-in-the-box and you'll be sprung to the top of the screen. Now get the teddy to the right of you. Swop the box key for the rope, which is in the entrance in the first floor and go to the room with all the daleks in. Now keep shooting the daleks until the teddy reaches the far right of the screen and disappears. Now walk right and jump at the rope in the next room and it should extend to the bottom of the screen. Now go to the swimming pool on the first floor, and you'll find that the duck is within your reach so you can get it. As for what it does, use the cork and the pop-gun to get past the soldiers in the castle to get a flag, and use this flag with the rubber duck to get the pebbles in the room with the sandcastle. (Richard Swann in Your Sinclair issue 67 , Page 28) 5086 Take the brick and the chocolate 10p to the room with lots of tennis balls. Drop the brick to the right of the cash desk, jump onto the brick, jump left onto the counter and walk across it. As you pass the cash desk, the chocolate 10p turns into a real one. Get the bomb and go to the door with the slot, and if will open. (Richard Swann, Leigh Loveday, Toby Powell, Dave The Rave, Dominic Rackstraw, Gavin Smith in Your Sinclair issue 85 , Page 26) 5335 Places where energy appears 1st) 4 Doors [4th floor] | Music equipment [4th floor] (*) 2nd) Ropes [4th floor] | Exit [1st floor] 3rd) Sports [2nd floor] | Lamps [1st floor] 4th) Restaurant [2nd floor] | Library [3rd floor/4th floor] [after this, the energy items appear again in the 1st place] (*) = The '|' indicates that energy item appears in two places at once; but when you pick an item, the other disappears. And appears the next items in the list. (Mike_Myers - brand new tip!) 13510 | ||||||

- You can load the pop gun only in sports room (2nd floor) or the wine cellar (1st floor).
- You can repair the torch only in bedroom (1st floor) or the lamps room (1st floor). - You can load the catapult only in exit (1st floor) or the beach (4th floor). (Mike_Myers - brand new tip!) 14031 | ||||||

| Pop
into the room with the
ropes to the left of the
starting room and make
sure Herb is facing left.
Hold down the keys 'C',
'H', 'E', 'A' and 'T' (wonder
why they picked those
keys?) and you can watch
the magic happen. You've
now got infinite Herberts.

Go to the rope room, and start climbing the rope. Then hold down the letters C, H, E, A and T to get infinite lives. (Richard Swann in Your Sinclair issue 67 , Page 28) 5087 (Reproduced in Crash issue 91 - uncredited) Go onto the rope screen, climb up the rope and hold down the keys which spell out CHEAT. There's a buzz and hey presto! - you've got infinite lives. Good eh? (Paul Jukes in Crash issue 40 , Page 85) 6796 When on the ropes press C, H, E, A and T which spell out cheat (never!) and you should get that just reward of infinite lives.

The remove enemies also makes the game impossible, although it does kind of wreck the completion element of the game as you cannot get the "glove" (for instance) as there's nothing in that screen to play.

First of all get the box key and get the honey pot. Now go to the room that you
start off in and jump up on to the box. This will spring you up to where you can exchange the honey pot for the teddy. Get the rope. Now with the rope and the teddy go to the arcade room with the daleks in it. The teddy will go and open the right hand side door; you can now go through this. Jump at the rope in the next room and it should extend into a room with a rubber duck; collect this. Load the pop gun (with the cork and the pop gun) and go to the castle. Exchange the pop gun for the flag and with the rubber duck go to the seaside screen. You can now collect the pebbles to load the catapult.... (J. Wankling in Crash issue 18 , Page 78) 7815 Now get the torch and the bulb; the torch is mended. Goto the dark room, and you should now be able to see in this room. Shoot all the ducks and a couple of rolls of caps should be dropped. Put these somewhere convenient. Get the A brick and the chocolate lop and go to the screen with the till. Climb on top of the brick and walk past the till with the chocolate 10p, this should now be exchanged for a real lOp. With the 10p and the bomb go to the room with the 10p slot and jump at it. You will now be in a Blitz game, and when this is completed you will receive a cannonball. With this and the rolls of caps go to the room with the cannon and walk through it. The cannonball will be launched and a hole in the wall will be made. Pass through this hole and get the space hopper. Then go back up to get the tennis racket and put the space hopper in a convenient place. Next go into the Breakout room and complete the game. Once the Breakout game is completed you should receive a glove. Get the space hopper and with the glove go to Level 1 to the room with the hand guarding a door. You must now jump into the room behind the hand (the hand will no longer harm you because you have the glove). You will be in a room with Wally and Wilma at the top of an escalator. As you have the space hopper you will be able to jump very high.This means that you can now jump up and switch the escalator on and be reunited with Wally and Wilma.
