    Has anyone finished this game?  We're in the "last" world with all the
    doors and can't seem to get anywhere.  Any hints at all would be 
    appreciated.

    It is quite the game alright. I've made it as far as Telos and have
    been there for the past three days. Telos is like a game on its own
    there's so much to it.There are more doors in Telos then your could
    shake a stick at and that turned out to be the clue to finish the game,
    the way to the finish is not through a door but through a wall. If you
    throw bombs toward the walls you will eventually find out where the 
    secret pass is. I'll leave it at that so as to not spoil it too much.
    I would highly recommend this game to anybody who likes to do some
    thinking to figure on the quest type games.

    HELP!
    
    I'm completely stuck on this game!
    
    I've got to the point where you are inside the computer and have to get
    past the various force fields. How on earth do you get past the last
    one? I've picked up the gun along the way, but I figure I've missed
    something that will help me get past the force fields. I'd appreciate
    any help on this as it looks like a good game and I've barely got into
    it yet!
    
    Thanks

    Re .3:
    
    Hmm, you have discovered the second teleport location on Cyberia, yes?
    I just replayed it and did not have too much trouble.  I do not think
    you need any special devices.  Did you reach the teleporter, where it
    transports you to inside the computer?  If so, there is something you
    need to do in there.  Read below.
    
    Did you see the little beads?  I think there are three or so, each with
    those force field lines on either side of it.  You should shoot those
    little beads.  You can probably do it from outside the force fields. 
    When you shoot the last bead, the force fields will go off.
    
    Let me know if you need more help.

    thanks for the reply..with your help I've managed to get through to the
    next world. In this world somebody has nicked off with my computer and
    I'm chasing it to get it back before it's converted to an 'evil
    computer'. It's taken me ages to master those bubbles you have to jump
    on, but I've finally managed to catch up with the computer. What I need
    to know is, what do I do now? The instructions at the beginning of the
    world said "find me, pick me up, then teleport back before they convert
    me to an evil robot". Do I literaly have to pick up the computer? If
    so, how do I do it...I've tried pressing all sorts of buttons but I
    can't do it. Basically, I need to know how to stop the computer being
    converted.
    
    Any help would be appreciated.
    
    Kath (who obviously isn't any good at this game!)

    Re .5:
    
    That world took me a long time to master.  Yes, you actually have to
    pick up the computer.  I don't remember how.  Check the instructions to
    see if there is some button-combination you are supposed to use to pick
    things up.  You might or might not have to kill the enemies at the end. 
    I seem to recall the player's character picking up the computer and
    holding it over their head, but I'm not sure.  Once you have got the
    computer, teleport back to the ship.
    
    I'm afraid I really don't remember this part very well; if you can't
    find a way to get the computer, I suggest asking the Nintendo
    counselors, at 1-206-885-7529.

    In order for you to save your computer,you must stop the conveyor belt.
    I don't think you'd like any more details than that. By the way,I
    finished the game quite a while ago. The last world is a real challenge
    to figure out and the game has a nasty little twist at the end too.If
    anybody hears of a part two version I'd love to try it.
    

    I've finally managed to complete that world....I rang the Nintendo
    hotline in the end. 
    
    I'm now trying to get through Volcania. I've managed to get to the end
    of the upper world, but whenever I go down the craters I can't get any
    further, and I can't get out either so I've got to teleport. The last
    crater looks a bit more promising, but I'm still stuck and can't get
    out as I'm boxed in. How to you get to this lower world?
    
    Thanks

    Re .8:
    
    You can't finish Volcania until you have the teleport disk.  That's
    later in the game; try the other worlds now.

    Right...I've managed to get through Sauria and I'll I got out of it
    was some crystals. When I try to get through Turvia I get stuck at the
    first 'water jump' when that damn fish comes down and hits me on the
    head every time....is it possible to do this without some help?
    
    I'm stuck now cos I've not got anything to help me through Volcania and
    I can't get past that bit in Turvia. Am I going about this the right
    way?
    
    Thanks 
    
    Kath

    Re .10:
    
    As I recall, one's first impression of Turvia is that only one
    direction is passable; I do not remember if it is left or right.  But
    if you look around, you'll find a way to travel a bit in the other
    direction first, and I think there is something useful that way.

    thanks...I have an idea of something to try now that you've told me
    that, so I'll have a go at it tonight!

    I've now got the gun that fires upwards from Turvia, and the crystals
    from Sauria. I've now got a couple of queries about Turvia.
    
    1) If I go left from the start (ie in he direction heading towards the
    gun) I come across a small gap in the floor with bubbles coming out of
    it. If I fall down there then I can see an underground world, but I
    always die. Is it possible to avoid dying here?
    
    2) If I go right, I can sometimes get past that fish that tries to get
    me on the head. Here I find the only alternative is to fall down a gap
    in the floor. Here I move right into a second screen (killing everything 
    in sight!) but I just come to a dead end. What do I do here?
    
    An additional query about Sauria:
    
    When in the bit where you have to pick up keys, I can see an extra bit
    of 'energy' behind a locked gate. I haven't figured out a way to get to
    it with a key. Is it possible?
    
    Thanks 
    
    Kath
        

    Re .13:
    
    I'll address Sauria first, then Turvia.

    I never figured out how to do that.  Maybe you could get the final key
    and then jump back to the gate.  I was able to get the final key,
    through it over near the gate, and shoot crystal bombs to move the key
    into the lock, but I could not jump back myself.  Maybe by going over
    to the right and up, and then left and up, and then left you could get
    there, but it would require jumping at just the right instant.  Or
    maybe you could pass one of the earlier gates without using a key, by
    jumping high enough.  I don't know.
    
    > Is it possible to avoid dying here?

    I do not think so.  There is something else to the left.  If you keep
    going to the left, you will come to a building.  It is upside-down, as
    is the rest of the world.  You can go inside by pushing "up" in the
    game world -- down on the control pad.
    
    > Here I move right into a second screen (killing everything  in
    > sight!) but I just come to a dead end. What do I do here?

    It is not a dead end.  There are small passages there.  You cannot go
    through them yourself.  Here are some spoilers:
    
    There are some friends there to help you.
    
    Go for a ride.
    
    Jump on one of the slugs and crouch down.  It will carry you.

On Turvia, I've now managed to get through the passage by riding
the slug, gone into a world where I have to get a bone for the
dog, and rode a bubble to take me to another part of the
underground world. I've been running around this part and going
in circles. I've discovered some kind of device that can get rid
of one kind of enemy (the white blobs that shoot up and down
between to points) and I can shoot the other enemies, but I don't
seem to be getting anywhere. One part of this world consists of 3
of these white blobs, and just past them there is a blue blob
(don't know what it is) in mid air. I this something vital? I
can't see any way of getting it.

What do I do now?

Thanks 
Kath
    

    Re .15:
    
    After getting the bone for the dog, do you get some other object,
    perhaps something the person in the hut gives you?  After you have got
    that, you want to get all the way out of the underground, I think. 
    Make sure you have ridden the bubbles all the way up.  Then go back to
    the mayor in the building on the surface.
    
    
    				-- edp

    I've tried going into the hut again, but I can't find any more objects.
    I just get a message telling me to stay with the cow, which I do. I use
    the cow to jump on top of the hut and then jump on the spring that
    bounces me back up to the upside down underground world. 
    Surely there must be something useful in that underground world..if
    not, what is the point of it being there?

    Re .17:
    
    Did you get across the water in the underground world?  There is some
    object over there; you might have to pick it up by pressing a button.
    It might be worth trying to go back to the mayor and seeing if in fact
    you do have the necessary device.
    
    I'll play Turvia again this weekend and see if I can figure it out.
    
    
    				-- edp

    re .18
    
    yes, I did go across the water and pick up the bone. I brought it back
    over the water and threw it at the dog. The dog seemed to like this so
    I thought it was the right thing to do. I've just thought that I will
    try and take the bone into the hut...I wonder what happens when I do
    that? 
    Any help in this world would be appreciated.
    
    Thanks

    That thing in mid-air is vital; it is the gravity-reversal do-hickey.
    Before reaching the room with that device, there was another
    little-bitty device near the top of the screen.  This little device is
    near the top of the screen.  It is left from where the mid-air device
    is, on the same screen where the bubble brought you to.  It might be
    hard to see; it is just a couple of dots.  (BTW, I tuned the colors on
    my television screen; it really brings out the detail in many games.)
    
    You can pick up the little device.  When you drop it, it shoots
    something "upward" (down on the screen).  If you drop it under the
    device in mid-air, the device will "fall", and you can then pick it up
    and take it to the mayor.
    
    
    Re .17:
    
    > Surely there must be something useful in that underground world..if
    > not, what is the point of it being there?

    It is just that the way the world is set up, you enter the underground
    world from the left side of a gap in the world above, and you emerge on
    the right side of the gap -- all you have to do in the underground
    world is get out of it.
    
    
    				-- edp

    You throw the bone to the dog and he will lead the cow across the
    screen. Get up on the cows back and as you pass the hut jump up on
    the roof and then straight up from there.

    After a long rest from this game, I've decided to have another attempt.
    
    I'm now in Vernia and have managed to travel through the underground
    world and ride the balloon up to the sky world. I get through to the
    end of this where I see two doors. If I go through a door I end up in a
    room with 2 robots walking up and down. They appear to be winding each
    other up with a key. My problem is how to get past these. I've tried
    shooting them and throwing crystals at them. I can't jump over
    them....how do I get past them?
    
    Also, are there any short cuts in this game - it's a real pain having
    to start right from the beginning when I die. I noticed a tree with
    steps in it in the first part of the world, but they don't seem to lead
    anywhere. Have they got a use?
    
    Kath

    Re .22:
    
    You have to keep at least one of those robots so busy/damaged that they
    don't have time to wind each other up; then you can knock out the other
    one.
    
    Sorry, I don't know of any shortcuts.

     I'm stuck on Volcania. The lava's tough. I was thinking the energy
    disk would be helpful but I can't find it. I've been through all the
    worlds but Volcania and Telos. Did I miss it on one of those worlds
    or is it yet to be found? Any help on finding the disk or a way over
    the lava pools would help. The instructions say the energy disk allows
    you to flaot over dangerous areas for a short time so I thought it
    would work weel on Volcania.
    
      any help appreciated,   Robin
