1.0 Introduction ------------------------------------------------------
=======================================================================
Festers Quest has never really received the mainstream recognition it
deserved in my opinion, because it is one of my all time favorite games.
Featuring lots of innovative game play, the game is a fantastic side
scrolling action/adventure game that is great fun for the entire family!
Overall, Festers Quest for the NES is one of my all time favorite
games. I was also quite surprised to see that no one wrote a guide for
this great game yet, so I decided to! This FAQ/Walkthrough is not
finished yet (I will work on the walkthrough at a later time and date)
but I hope you enjoy this guide anyways!

=======================================================================
1.1 Revision History --------------------------------------------------
=======================================================================

v0.2 (December 15, 2000): What, you thought I forgot about this guide? AHAHA! I
just have not had any time to work on it. But now I do. I updated the format to
my current format, and added new information. Hopefully I will fix all the
formatting errors that have plagued this guide, as well. I am going to work a
lot on the walkthrough the next few days, by the way, so expect lots of updates
from me for this guide.

v0.1 (August 2nd, 2000): First version of the guide, everything done
except for walkthrough. I slowly worked on the walkthrough and got some
of it done. I also added a lot of sections, but some of the sections
have yet to be completed. And I promise that I will at least update this
guide once a week, it is going to be tough once school starts for me to
update it, however.



=======================================================================
1.2 Background Information about the Game -----------------------------
=======================================================================

Did you know that Square Soft actually played a helping hand in making
Festers Quest? Yes, it is true, Sun Soft is a subsidiary of Square Soft,
and Sun Soft made this game. So, it can be said that Square Soft made
Festers Quest. Interesting, huh?

=======================================================================
2.0 Walkthrough  ------------------------------------------------------
=======================================================================

I am currently working on this walkthrough, and it should be done by the
time I have to return to school.


********START WALKTHROUGH********

Enemies: Green Aliens with Long Tounges, Red Aliens that spit fireballs
out at you, Blue Aliens, Orange Aliens, and Big Faces with Flies Around
them.

You start off in the beginning of a street. You can now walk either left
or right, although I advise that you do not walk left, because it is
just a dead end. The enemies will then end up making mincemeat out of
you! Head to the right and kill the enemies while also collecting the
power ups inside of the purple grass-like enemies that hog up the
street.

You get your first taste of power ups here. You can collect different
type of power ups, but make sure to get some light bulbs because you
will have to enter the sewer soon. Also, powering up your weapon is
effective, as well, because you start off with the rather weak green
bullets that move very slowly. My best advice to you is to go back and
forth along the street while collecting power ups until you have at
least the slow cannon ball weapon then move on.

Once you get to the end of the street, you can move either up or down.
Up is just another dead end with nothing to see but a place you will
enter later (after completing the sewers) and there are the red aliens
up there which could kill you by spitting out the fireballs. So, just
head down, along the way you will have to kill more aliens and collect
more power ups.

This is when the non-linearity of the game really shines through. You
can actually do one of three things here.


===========================================================
              OPTION 1: Go down and to right.
===========================================================

This is not your best option, I will tell you that right now. The reason
for this is because this leads to nothing but a dead end, and there are
a lot of tough enemies to kill along the way. This is not a good option,
but it can be good for collecting power ups, since the enemies leave a
lot of weapon upgrades upon death.

===========================================================
                  OPTION 2: Go left, then up
===========================================================

Well, this is the option that I would take. Here, you have to kill a few
of the infamous "evil faces with flies flying around it that make evil
noises" enemies. My advice here is to not get hit by one of the flies,
youll be sorry if you do. Just kill them and move up, go to the left,
go down, killing a few blue alien enemies, and go into the two houses,
gaining items.

After doing that, you can go to.

===========================================================
                     OPTION 3: The Sewers
===========================================================

This is where the fun really starts to develop. Make sure you have a
light bulb or two (or ten) and head to the left of the intersection you
made in option 2 (when you went up to get to the house, go left this
time). Head all the way to the left, and go down, follow the path into
the first sewer of the game.

THIS IS WHEN THE FUN STARTS TO REALLY PICK UP! Ill continue the
walkthrough eventually, it will lead you through the various sewers and
3D mazes still to come!


========================================================================
MORE COMING SOON!
========================================================================


=======================================================================
3.0 Frequently Asked Questions ----------------------------------------
=======================================================================

Q: How many extra items can you get in the game?
A: There are a total of 16 extra items to be found. This does not include
weapon
based power ups.

Q: Are there any ways to get extra lives?
A: No, but you can get extra energy by visiting hot dog stands.

Have any questions? E-mail them to me at webmaster@wrestlingcolumns2000.com
