+=====> 3. Story <=====+
This is how the story goes in the game.

In acient time, a greedy young mage summoned a demon, 
Skorne. Skorne broke free of his bonds and escaped, 
sealing Sumner's tower behind him. Now he controlls the 
four Realms, and you are the only ones who can help...

+=====> 3. Controls <=====+
Here is the standard control:

A - Attack
B - Magic
Z - Turbo
R - Use
C^ - List Up
C\/ - List Down
C> - Item Right
C< - Item Left

You can always edit the controlls. Just go to the options
menu, then click on controller configuration. Once 
there, use the controller you want to edit. There are 
two recommended configurations; Standard (See above), or
crossbow (Switches the 
Z button with the A button). You'll eventually see a 
title called costum. Click on it to edit the controlls 
with the controller stick.

+=====> 6. World Guide <=====+
This section shows how to access new worlds.

Well you start off with mountain, right? So you would 
probably be very bored with one world open and besides 
you need all the worlds to complete the game. OK now, 
below is the order you get them at (if your playing 1 - 
player) and just how to get them. Got it?

VALKRIE'S CASTLE - Get this one after you get all three 
obelisk at the Mountain world

Obelisk 1: Right when you start the Valley of Fire 
level, go across the bridge. Go to a right and but not 
up the stairs. Now you should see a switch; push it and 
a small platform with the obelisk come up.

Obelisk 2: In the Dagger Peak level just keep takeing 
the high route and you'll eventually find it next to a 
huge statue.

Obelisk 3: In the Cliffs of Desolation, all you have 
hear is take the high route when you start. Go to the 
locked door to the right. Now open it and you should see 
an Obelisk to the left of the genorator.

TOWN - To get this one you also have to get 2 obelisk 
except they this time, have to be in the Castle World.

Obelisk 1: Somewhere near the end you'll see a branched 
bridge. Don't cross it just yet. Go back up the stairs 
and look to the right if you can (you can't see the wall 
because  the camera veiw here is bad). You may see a 
cracked wall. If not just keep whacking at the wall and 
you'll eventually discover a hidden switch. Now, push 
it, and then cross the bridge. You'll come along a 
opened door with an obelisk in it.

Obelisk 2: After you get the switch on the green 
platform, cross the bridge that the switch made, and 
then go to the treasure box in front of you. The camera 
will come to veiw and you'll see an obelisk to your 
right.       

ICE - To get this one you also have to get 2., and this 
time in the Town world.

Obelisk 1: At the starting of the first level (feilds) 
Shoot the rock by the trapped door.Now the trap door 
should be open. Go across the bridge that you got by 
pushing the switch. Go all the way at the end of this 
level. Make sure it's to the right at the end. You 
should see an obelisk at the lower part of the screen. 
Get it!

Obelisk 2: After you come across 4 sets of spike traps 
you know your near. Once you come across several gates, 
go to the very right. You'll come across a lonley.Look 
behind it and theres your answer.

Cathedrall - Beat all bosses (See walkthrough)

Skornes Controll Room - Beat Cathedrall (See Walkthrough)

Skorne - Retrieve all 13 of the Rune Stones



+=====> 7. The Walkthrough <=====+
This is probably one of the easiest walkthroughs you'll 
ever find. It will take
you step by step so you wont loose your place and it 
also doesn't take you to all the optional stuff. This 
guide will just take you through the whole game
quick!!!! So enjoy..........

1. Take the key, and then go up the stairs to open the 
door.
2. Once opened, run to the down route and hit the big 
rock.
3. Hit the switch and go to the high route, pick up the

down.
----------Rune Stone
8. It will eventually lead up and then back down, so 
just keep sticking to the up routes and you will find a 
portal
 
Rune Stone: You'll see a white thing in the wall. Hit 
it, and it will reveal a Rune Stone.


Level 3: The Cliff of Desolation

1. Grab the key and take the down route twice.
2. Open the locked door to your left, and hit the switch.
3. Go past the door you just opened, and go along the

un till you get to the switch by the bridge.
6. Hit it and cross the bridge.

15 coins to get the Minotaur (See characters).


Level 4: The Lost Caves
----------

2. go up, and push the switch.
3. Go up at the spot you whacked the rock at to find yet,
another switched
4. Now, go down, right, up, right, up wich is the door

untill you get the switch at the 
end.----------Rune Stone

find the portal.

Rune Stone: You'll probably step on the switch along your
way to the switch you really need. Well then, after you 
push the switch go around to the other side and snatch 
it.


Level 5: Volcanic Cavern
----------

The enemys make this one hard but theres mostly just one 
way so all I'll be talking about on this one is how to 
get Rasha's Scimitar, and how to get the Rune Stone.

Rasha's Scimitar: Search this whole level for hidden 
walls. There are 2 hidden walls, and each contains a 
switch. Once you've got both of the hidden switches you 
know you know you got the right switch (If you know what
I mean). Now, whack every barrel you see untill you see 
one with a switch under it. Push it, and a platform will 
come up. It's like  an elevator except there will be 
know problems with it like getting stuck. Now, just 
cross and you've got the Scimitar.

Rune Stone: Once you've found both of the hidden switches
you know the bridge is up for you to get it. It's nearby
one of the switches, and it's not as hard as other levels
too.

Level 6: The Dragons Lair (Boss)
He'll start of by throwing fireballs, so move fast. 
Try hiding behind the rock in the middle. Once, after 
he starts blowing out fire (NOT FIREBALLS) attack him. 
It would be a good idea if you have 3-way shot with you 
or 5-way. Oh yeah, make sure it's from a distance though 
because if you attack him close up even though it will 
hurt him more, but it will really hurt you even more!

Ice Axe: If you didn't already get this get it before 
you face him. It's in the castle treasurey. What this 
will do for you is freeze the dragon for a limited time,
so don't waste time and this is your chance you can 
attack him up close, but you can see when he starts 
getting unfrozen so get ready to run!

Multi-player Tip: One player here, can stand on on 
switch while the other can cross 
and hold the switch for the other person so they can 
too, cross. Now go down andget the switch by the 
genorater.

Rune stone: This ones not to hard. Try to find a way to

Rune Stone: Now you can see if you look very closely; a 
Rune Stone. The problem is; You've go to somehow open 
the  gate, and to do that you have to find a switch 
right? Rune Stone Part 2: The switch is up from this 
switch in that barrel. Push it, and then cross the first
bridge you saw when you started this level. Now run to 
the rune, and it's yours!

switches.

with the right side, and then the left. What I mean is 
get the switches on the right and then left and then go 
up and make the elevator go down to get that switch, and
rip the wall in front of you for four switches! You just
unlocked 7 more switches around the axe (This prooves 
sevens a lucky number). Now, go destroy all the barrels 
in the room you haven't visited; theres a switch under 
one of them that brings down the ICE AXE!!!

Bonus Stage: Don't go up all the steps yet. First just 
go up 1 set of stairs and go to your right. Collect 50 
coins on  this one to get Falconess. (see charaters)

Level 5: Chimera's Keep (boss)
----------
Don' go to close, and not in the middle of the boss. 
Just attack 1 at a time and it will be much easier. Oh, 
and it will help if you have 3-way shot or 5. It helps 
on all bosses.


Rasha's Scimitar: You should have this before you fight 
this creep. It is in the level called the Volcanic 
Cavern wich is in the world called Warriors Mountain. 
Well, on the other hand if you have it this will help 
you by chopping off the lion head wich is in the middle,
and it will kill him for good. The rest is up to you.

MORE COMING SOON..........

+=====> 8. Codes, Tips, and Tricks <=====+
Codes
----------

1. Infinity "Timestop" or "Shrink enemys
I figured this code out by accident. First go to a boss.
When your ready to die use the item before it runs out 
right when you die. Select continue, and go to a level 
and there will be either know enemys (If you used 
timestop) or the enemys are all small (If you used 
shrink enemys). This helps a lot if your not good at 
this game or if you just want to beat it badly. To stop 
the code just use your item untill it gets to zero or 
get more of that item.

2. Weird Name
Put your name as either Skorne or Sumner. If you done 
this correct you'll here a scream. Now, push B and 
you'll have a weird name. The reason it's weird is 
because it has a *.)# when you can't have that in your 
name. You can also try to make it a more weirder name by
flipping through the letters. There are those letters 
again.
NOTE: If you flip to far or it will turn back into the 
regular letters.

Tricks
----------

1. Ilusions
To do this trick just use a whole bunch of items at the 
same time (make sure yor useing the thunder hammer, the 
super shot, or both) and then un-equip all of them. 
You'll still have a thunder hammer or super shot in your
hand, but you'll attack regularly. I also found this 
code out all by myslef.

2. Forget Rapid Fire
All you have to do to use rapid fire but really not is 
attack an enemy without pushing any buttons but the 
controller stick. While your attacking, hold Z and 
you'll attack rapidly but some things wont get affected.

3. CHEAP TRICK!!!!!
Do the timestop code, and go to the level - Valley Of 
Fire wich is in Mountain. What is that you want; health,
money, or items. Grab everything there is. Now, sell all 
the items you've got and keep reapeting this. You'll end 
up with probably your maximum number of health, and a 
wacky number of gold. Now you can buy whatever you 
want, you can also keep up with your experience by 
buying upgrades.

Tips
----------

- Scrolls sometimes give good advice

- Bosses are more easier when you use the ledgendary 
weapons

- Sell amulets, and other weak items for upgrades (This 
is very helpful)

- Upgrade your weapons by gaining to levels 10, 25, 50, 
75, and 99

- Get 50 coins in bonus stages to get secrtet characters
