This FAQ has a complete walkthrough on how to beat the game Adventure Island. It also has codes, tips, etc. So if you don't want to know how to beat something don't read this because it is a spoiler. Thank you. ii. About the game ------------------ Adventure Island is a game for the NES and it was made by Hudson in 1986. You cannot read the title of the game unless you read japaneese or chinese or some language like that, but the name of the game is Adventure Island. In my opinion I think it is a really fun game, but the main negative feature is it's just too plain. But anyway here is my rating of the game on a 10 scale: __________ ___________ | Category | Out of 10 | __________ ___________ | Graphics | 6.5 | ___________ __________ | Sound | 7.5 | __________ ___________ | Control | 6.0 | __________ ___________ |Game Play | 7.0 | __________ ___________ | Overall | 6.5 | I. Enemies ---------- (NOT IN ORDER) Snail - your basic enemy if you hit it you die. Bird - flies up and down after you. Flying Fish - (Flying Tuna as I like to call them) - Fish that fly from the ocean at you, if they touch you, you die. Walking Pigs - another basic enemy, you touch it you die. Rocks - You can trip on them and fall down a gap or into an enemy. So my suggestion is to just jump over them. Fire - Burns you bad enough that you die when you touch it. Boulders - They roll towards you and if they touch you, your gone. Snakes - they spit mini-flying fish at you, so watch out, In my opinion this is the most dangerous enemy, besides the bosses. Bats - Fly up and down in a similar way the birds do. Skeleton Heads - Heads on the floor just like snails. Icicle - Fall from the celing and kills you. Chili - A thing like the fairy> _bertragung unterbrochen decrease dramatically. Spiders - Hang from their string, or move up and down on their string, you touch them and you die. Hatchet Man - A guy that runs from behind with a hatchet, one touch and your gone. 1st Boss - Rhino Head - Throw hammers at his head to defeat him. 2nd Boss - Coming soon, just wait for updates. II. Friends ----------- Higgins - The character you play as, real name is Master Higgins. Tina - your Wife, the one who is kidnapped and you are looking for her. Monster type things - I think these are called magical fire (NOT SURE) If you know what these are called e-mail me at (SDallas15@aol.com) or if you know what Magical Fire is e-mail me. There are 2 or 3 different types of monster things. III. Items ---------- Hatchet - Weapon Magical Fire - Weapon Skateboard - Makes you go faster Boomerang - Weapon Arrows - Weapon Bananas - Fruit that gives you more time and points. Carrots - Vegetable that gives you more time and points. Grapes - Fruit that gives you more time and points. Apples - Fruit that gives you more time and points. Fruits and Vegetables basically - Give you more time and points. Fairy - Makes you invincible for a short time. Vase - Gives you tons of point at the end of each round. Flower - In an egg. I'm not sure what this does e-mail me if you know (SDallas15@aol.com) Milk - found in egg, restores all time in the time meter. Chili - Same as fairy except it is evil, makes your time decrease. IV. Weapons ----------- Hatchets (Hammers, I like to call them hammers) - Your main weapon. Boomerang - Another Weapon Arrows - Another Weapon Magical Fire (not sure what this is) I think this is those monster type things that help you out. (SEE FRIENDS) V. Walkthrough -------------- Well here it is, what you have been waiting for. A complete walkthrough for Adventure Island. Before we start, in each round there are signs on the floor with numbers or letters painted on them.. Here are what they look like: ___ ___ ___ ___ ___ |_S_| |_2_| |_3_| |_4_| |_G_| | | | | | | | | | | The S is where you START And you progress up to 2 and 3 and so on until you get to.. G which stands for GOAL, that is when you complete the round. Ok, lets start. You start at... _____________ | | | Area 1 | | Round 1 | |_____________| You start at a little sign on the ground with an S painted on it, which of course stands for, you guessed it: Start So walk forward and grab the apple for 50 points. Then keep going and get the bananas for another 50 pts. Keep going and kick the egg and a hammer will pop out. This is your first weapon, press B to throw it. Keep going at throw a hammer at the snail in front of you. for 10 pts. Keep going straight, get the bananas for 50 pts. then throw hammers at the 2 snails. Get the bananas and jump over the 2 rocks. BE WARNED: Do you see those little ||||||| on the top of the screen this is your time left to complete the level so you must be quick. When the ||||| runs out you die so hurry up. But you do get more time when you get the fruit. Keep going and get the 2 apples and kill the 3 snails. Jump and get the bananas. You should now come to a sign on the ground that has a 2 painted on it. Keep walking and get the apple and bananas. Then kick the egg and, YAY! you are on the skateboard. But don't get hit by an enemy or rock or you will fall off the skateboard. Skate on until you get to the apple and banana next to each other. Get them and then get the next apple and the banana and the carrot. Now watch out for the flying birds and rocks. Remember if you get hit you will fall off. To jump higher on the skateboard press left hold it and press A and you can jump higher to get fruits. You must be moving and jump to get a high jump. If you are standing still and jump you won't get a high jump. Keep killing the birds or they will kill you, and get the fruits on the way. Jump over the rocks and get the fruits until you come to a sign with the number 3 painted on. Keep going and get the fruit as you jump over rocks and fire by the totem poles. When you jump over the last rock and get the carrot WATCH OUT!! There is a snake spitting little fish at you kill it with a hammer and continue on. Walk up the hill and jump over the rolling boulders that fall down at you. Kick the egg and a fairy will come out. This makes you invincible for a short time. Kill the snake at the end of the hill. All you have to do is walk through them if you have the fairy. Keep going until you get the the number 4 painted on the little sign. Jump over the gap and kill the snail, the fairy will dissapear right about now. Now jump on the platform over the gap, and over the 2 rocks, then kill the 2 snails with your hammers. Now jump on that spring in the middle of the gap you come to and you will get the VASE which is worth quite a few points. Keep going until you get to the frog hit it twice with the hammer to kill it. Walk on and jump on the platforms to get to the other side of the gap and you should see a sign with a G painted on it. CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! you have completed Area 1 Round 1. Now you go on to, you guessed it... _____________ | | | Area 1 | | Round 2 | |_____________| Start from the S of course and this Round is a little different. Jump onto the cloud and then back on the platform. The egg in front of you contains a Skateboard. But I STRONGLY SUGGEST you don't get it because it is very hard to manuver your way around this level on a skateboard unless you are sure you can do it. Jump on the clouds and kill the Octopus that is jumping in and out of the water. Keep jumping on the clouds collecting fruits on the way. Then jump back on land and kill the snails and jump back on the clouds. If you notice when you jump back on the clouds an egg appears. I am not sure what it contains because when I go back to get it it dissapears back into the level. If you know tell me (SDallas15@aol.com) I will give you credit. Keep going and jumping from cloud to land killing snails and octopi, Collecting fruit and vegetebles on the way. **NOTE**- the Blue octopi take 2 hits to kill them. Walk on until you get to land and come to the 3 on the floor. Kill the Walking pig. Then go on and get the egg which contains a fairy. Just run through all the enemies to kill them. To run press and hold B and run. Go on until you reach the clouds again and you will come to the flying fish, (Flying Tuna I like to call it) Kill them or jump over them whichever you choose, and walk (or run) on. Go on through a series of clouds and moving clouds and get the VASE on the way. Keep going through lots of clouds, and FINALLY you come to the goal. Wow 2 rounds gone, now you come to... _____________ | | | Area 1 | | Round 3 | |_____________| This is a sort of like Cave level. From the START go up and get the fruit and inside the egg is a skateboard. You can get on it if you want to. Watch out because there is a bat flying towards you, just kill it with your hammer and keep moving. Keep killing the bats as you go until you come to the fire. Jump over the 2 fires. Kill the 2 bats and jump over the rock. Then watch out for the boulders, jump over them and you will come to the 2 sign on the floor. Break the egg to get a fairy. Now run down the hill (B + Right to run) Keep running and jumping until you get to the icy platform and your fairy runs out. Kill the skeleton head. Now you should come to the 3 sign on the floor. Keep walking and collecting fruit, but watch out for the icicles on the celing they will fall down and kill you, so just run under them. There will be an egg by you, but DON'T BREAK IT!! It contains a chili that will make your time counter decrease very fast. Keep going avoiding icicles until you come to the sign on the floor which says 4. You're almost done. Walk up the steps and watch out for the boulders, go to the top of the steps. Jump on the platform and if you can get the vase down below without dying, go for it. Go past the moving platforms until you get to a long row of bats, kill them and keep going. And TADA!! the G on the floor, you have completed Area 1 Round 3. Now it's time to head to... _____________ | | | Area 1 | | Round 4 | |_____________| This round is a forest type round. Go forward and kill the spiders collecting fruit and vegetables on your way. The pot is really, really easy to find in this round. It is right in the begining just above a spider. Kill the spider, jump up and get it. Jump over the fire and rock and kill the spiders or run under them. Now watch out because there is a row of birds that are coming, just stay back and throw hammers at them. Right after the birds there is a snake, kill and and go foward. Break the egg to get some MILK. Milk makes your time counter completely full again. This is also where the 2 on the sign on the floor is. Keep going but WATCH OUT FROM BEHIND!! There is a guy running with a hatchet in his hand so jump right when he comes or else your dead. Keep going and jump over the rocks and fire, collecting the fruits and vegetables on the way. Kill the frog and walk on. Ok, now you need to jump on the spring and make it in between the 2nd rock and the fire otherwise you will fall into the fire and be burned. Once you are in between the rock and fire jump over the fire and continue on. You will now come to the sign on the ground that has a 3 on it. 1 more until the GOAL. Go on kill the bird, now there are spiders that are on the floor and in the air jump over the ones on the floor and kill the ones in the air, collect fruits on the way. Keep going and there will be another Hatchet guy from behind so watch out, you will now come to the sign with a 4 on it on the floor. Move on up the hill avoiding the boulders then at the top jump over the fire. Go down the small hill and at the end jump up and throw a hammer to kill the snake ahead, this is much easier than standing by the rocks and killing it. Then move on and jump on the platforms, you will notice a change in music, you are now at your... _____________ | | | 1st Boss | | Rhino Head | |_____________| I call this guy rhino head because of course his head looks like a rhino's. To defeat him, you need to do a high jump by moving and pressing A. Then while in the air throw a hammer to hit him in his big head. Keep doing this until you defeat him. You will get 5000 pts. when you defeat him. Now that you have finished Area 1, you now move to... _____________ | | | Area 2 | | Round 1 | |_____________| Welcome to Area 2. You start out in an ocean background. Move fowards and kill the snails and pick up fruits and the flower. Now jump onto the clouds and kill the octopi. Remember the Octopus that is blue, you have to hit it twice to kill it. Get off the clouds and you will arrive at the sign on the ground with the 2 on it. Keep going and you must RUN on this little short part of land, jump onto the 1st cloud then right when you jump on the 2nd one jump off because it falls down into the water. Keep moving past the clouds and jump on the spring and break the egg, it is a fairy YAY!! Run past all the enemies killing them, this will give you tons of points. Then you come to the sign on the ground with a 3 on it. Move ahead and kill the frog then keep going from land to cloud killing the octopi and collecting the fruit on the way. Keep moving and collect the VASE on your way, then kill the snails on the land platforms, then you will come to the sign with a 4 on it. Move on to the clouds and watch out for the flying tuna. Kill both of them and keep going past all of the clouds until you come to the row of clouds moving downward, you need to go to the top of these then jump to the far right. And you will arrive at the GOAL. Now you can go on to... _____________ | | | Area 2 | | Round 2 | |_____________| Here is another Cave level. Go Foward and get the egg, it contains a flower.
