HOW TO PLAY
Bignose starts the game with just three lives and his Neanderthal
club. Bignose should be very careful not to touch any of the small animals that
populate the island - they can all kill him instantly. Bignose's Club Watch out
for the three rocks icon. When Bignose picks this up he can use his club just
like a baseball bat to launch rocks at his enemies. If Bignose touches the
wildlife while carrying stones, he'll survive the attack but the shock will make
him drop them. If he's not carrying stones then... KAPUT!
Bones and Shops
Pick up any bones that you may find along the way - they can be exchanged in
the hidden shops for weapons, magical powers and even bonus lives.
Hidden Features
Bignose can smash rocks with his club to reveal hidden objects - doing this
can often be rewarding. Some rocks need to be hit more than once.
The hidden shops... Bignose will have to look hard to find the shops - remember,
billboards weren't invented back then! SUPER-POWERFUL WEAPONS can be bought, as
well as BONUS LIVES and MAGIC SPELLS. Try a Fast Club to improve your clubbing
action, or Double Stones for a twin shot capability.
The Status Screen
Once spells have been bought, you'll need to choose when to use them.
When you need a spell, press SELECT to call up the STATUS SCREEN, and then use
UP and DOWN to choose what to use. Press A or B to use it, and then START to
carry on with the game. Powers and Spells Special powers and spells usually last
until the end of stage or until Bignose loses a life and are often best kept for
use against the BIG BOSS MONSTERS at the end of each level.
