PRINTHerc's Adventure (PSX)
Defeating the Caledonian Boar:
If you are so inclined to venture off the big ledge to find a hunter
listening for the big boar, you'll have to stock up on spears to help him out.
You'll also find those boar traps come in handy. Pick up the boar traps and proceed
directly south through the small tunnel in the bushes. Then go west a couple of
paces until you run into the spear salesman. If you have money, he'll sell you spears,
and you better get them now, before the boar finds him. After you've stocked
up on spears(if you're lucky enough to have avoided the big boar), move back
into the main area where you first saw the hunter and get ready. The Caledonian
Boar will neatly burn passageways in the hedges that make nifty little mazes to
go round-and-round. This makes it really easy to lay traps and stand in a
convenient place to throw spears at the boar when he's busy spitting fire.
Keep this up and he'll soon go out in a blaze of glory with a defeated cry.
If you're ambitious and running low on health, there's a heart that will restore
your health in a blocked area just northwest of the main landing where you first
saw the hunter. Run up to that area, hoping the boar will follow and get him in
a position to burn an opening into the ledge. Once he's done that and moved on to
another area, pic up the heart and use it if you need to.
Faster, Faster:
Some boats go faster if you can get the workers to pick up their pace. The best
way to get them to row at a faster speed is to get the pacemaker to let you help.
Just get right in there and hit the drum, the faster you hit the drum, the faster
they row and the quicker you get to your anticipated location! With Atlanta, just
hit the drum with your bow and arrow. With Herc, use your club. With Jason,
use your basic attack.
How to Find Save Game Scribes:
To save a game you must find a scribe who will record your journey for a drachma or two.
Here's how to find the first scribe: After you battle the skeletons and find yourself
swimming in a pool of water at the bottom of a waterfall, proceed directly south from
that waterfall. You'll have to navigate past some pesky Hags and a dilapidated,
overturned boat, but there's a scribe hiding out just past a ledge you'll find. Jump
down off the ledge, get rid of the skeleton henchmen and save your game because
you're about to fight the Caledonian Boar!
Level One Walkthrough:
After starting your adventure and defeating one Cyclops, you'll immediately notice
another annoying giant perched on the ledge as you round the corner. If you're playing
Herc or Jason, you'll find, much to your dismay, that spears and special attacks don't
reach up where the Cyclops is standing. If you're playing Atlanta, you're at a particular
advantage with her arrow-barrage. Hold down the attack button, place the crosshairs over
the Cyclops and let it go. After four special attacks, the Cyclops will no longer remain standing!
This particular enemy (as with many others throughout the game), once defeated,
offers a special reward that can be collected at the nearest Bonus Pedestal. Once
you've defeated the enemies in this area, you'll come across a gate. Once through
that gate, you'll see the first Bonus Pedestal in the game, and if you have defeated that
Cyclops, you will see one drachma bonus waiting to be taken.
Unlimited Gyros:
When you're in CRETE you'll find one gyro. Pick it up, go down the walkway until
the music changes, then return and take another. Keep doing this until your stock is full.
Level One Walkthrough:
If you want to defeat that cyclop on the ledge and get the bonus,that is
not a drachma but a heart,with Herc or Jason first find two crows and
then walk down just below the cyclop and let the first crow go.It will
start hitting the cyclop and he'll respond with throwing stones at the
crow without result ofcourse.When the crow flies away let the second
crow go and it'll finish him.Even if you take several damage from the
cyclop the heart will restore it with adding 10 more health to the one
you've started with.
Minotor Madness:
There are many ways 2 beat the minotor. The easiest way is 2 go into the small room in
the upper left part of the labrinth with the old dude selling pepper breath. Track down
the minotor once he finds u go back 2 the room slowly and he will follow you. He won't
be able 2 fit through the doorway so he will run around in circles unsuccesfully trying
2 get inside. While he is doing that whoever u are playing with should stand near the
doorway(not inside the doorway) and use their special attack which is holding down the
attack button and letting go. If there r 2 players and 1 person is Atlanta, She shold
stand a little bit behind the other player,aim and then shoot her barrage of arrows.
