Switching Characters

There are a large number of different characters you can control in the game and you can easily switch control from one to the other. Switching allows you to use the characters’ special skills, weapons, abilities, strength, or size (large and small) to your advantage in progressing through the adventure. For example, if there is a small opening, why not switch to a small figure like a Dwarf, and see if he can fit through it? Stand close to the other character and press the A Button

Teaming Up Characters

Your selected character can also team up and control other unique characters. This allows them to do exciting things like flying (with the Gryphon); racing at high speed (with the Horse) or smashing big structures (with the Giant). To Team Up with a Gryphon, Horse or Giant stand close to the team-up character and press the - Button.

Special Items And Abilities

The game features many different special items that can be used in the adventure to great effect. Look out for them. Here are a few:

Grappling Hook

This is a length of rope with a hook on the end that you can aim and throw. It can be lodged at the top of a high wall allowing your character, and others in the party, to climb it.

Torch

A torch will light up a target or an area for a period of time.

Power Smash

Characters with Power Smash ability can lunge forward and do massive damage to any object or structure ahead of them. Sometimes a Power Smash is the only way to get through some difficult obstructions.
