Boiler 2 ------------------------------------------------------ Abe's Exoddus - Tunnel 1 On the first screen when you drop down, there is a barrel of bones in the foreground. You can climb down here (from a standing position). This bonus area is very challenging for a 1st level. If you are just starting out but want to rescue all the mudokons, you can skip the Hidden area. Halfway through the level is another opportunity to do the Hidden area. -------------------- Tunnel 1 Hidden Area -------------------- Drop down from the first area. Go through the door. Immediately climb down to the screen below. Roll two spaces to the right so you are hiding behind the wall and the flying slig can't throw a grenade at you. Say ALL YA FOLLOW ME. Then you need to wait for the flying slig to leave the screen. Roll or run to the left and stop before you roll/run over the electrical field. You need to stand up and say ALL YA WORK (so they'll stop and ignore you) If you don't say ALL YA, then 2 of the 3 mudokons will follow you right into the electric field and die. Press Start and select Quicksave to set a continue point. You can Quicksave ANYWHERE. Now you need to wait for the flying slig to leave the screen (hide behind the wall) and then say HELLO FOLLOW ME and make sure you pull the lever so the mudokon gets through. Roll to the left and the mudokon will stop over the trapdoor. Tell the mudokon to WAIT. When the slig leaves the screen, roll to the right and pull the lever. The mudokon will safely be dropped down to the screen below. Repeat this for all 3 mudokons. I suggest Quicksaving after each one. After you do this, walk over to the air vent next to the lever and press up to jump into it. You'll end up BELOW the three mudokons you just rescued. You need to say HELLO and FOLLOW ME to get them lined up under the wheels. After that, say ALL YA WORK and they will open the gate for you and you can rescue all 3. CHANT to rescue these guys. Now go to 2 screens to the left and simply CHANT to rescue all 9 mudokons here. Go back to the right 2 screens and jump up into the air vent. Now make your way to the right and climb up and go back the way you came. Climb up and you will be back at the beginning of the level. ----------------------------------------------------- Tunnel 1 cont'd You should be on the first screen where you start the game. Go to the right, drop down and roll through a tunnel area. Go to the right and you have to stop in front of the explanation box and press UP. It explains different moods your mudokon friends get in. Now climb up, jump to the left and then climb up to the next screen (on this screen is a mudokon next to two bombs and 2 mudokons working in the background). One screen to the left is a mudokon. Go left and say HELLO (L1-/\) FOLLOW ME (L1-[]) to the mudokon, walk to the right and CHANT (L1-R1) to rescue your friend. This unlocks a door. The next screen to the right there's a locked door and you turn a wheel to open it, but that releases water on the mudokon. Walk up to him and apologize for getting him wet by saying SORRY (L2-()). Have him FOLLOW you to the right and CHANT to rescue him which opens the door. To the right, you turn a wheel which releases laughing gas and the two mudokons there get totally stoned. You have to walk to the right two screens (They'll stumble and generally follow you) and then slap (Anger L1-(X)) each one once. If you slap one twice, apologize by saying SORRY (L2-()). Tell them to follow you and they will line up underneath the wheels. Say ALL YA (L2-/\) WORK (L1-()) Now have them follow you to the next screen and rescue them through the birdgate by chanting (L1 & R1). Walk to the right and climb up the lift. There is an explanation on the left of how to Quiksave. Basically, press START on ANY screen at any time and select QuikSave. Now if you die, you continue from this point. Remember to periodically do a real MEMORY CARD SAVE when you want to quit. Now continue up the lift. Walk to the right and there's a sleeping slig at the top. Keep going over to the right (You have to roll under two fans). Pull the green lever and go through the door to the top where there are two stoned mudokons. Walk one screen to the left. Slap em and have both of them follow you and tiptoe to the left. Line them up under the wheels and tell em to WAIT. Go through the door so you go to the lower platform. Pull the cord to unlock the door to the left. Now say ALL YA and FOLLOW ME and have all 4 mudokons follow you to the left. CHANT and rescue all 4. DON'T go down where the purple arrow is pointing. If you drop down here, it closes two doors. This will prevent you from getting a mudokon and also prevents you from doing the Hidden level if you've put it off until now. If you've gone down where the purple arrow pointed, you can die somehow and you should go back to where you Quicksaved last. Backtrack back to almost the beginning of the level until you see that a *second* slig has appeared. This slig is NOT on a screen with a RED EYE. CHANT and take control of the slig. Remember L2-() is "Look Out!". You should yell this BEFORE you shoot the slig two screens to the right (). Otherwise you might kill your mudokon friend. If you've killed a mudokon by mistake and can't find a way to die, hit START and select LOAD and hit [] to load your Quicksave. LAST CHANCE to do the BONUS AREA two screens to the left. Now go all the way back to the right and climb up the lift and go to the right, and through the doors and up and to the left and past the slig. Go down where the Purple arrow is. The slig on the right is gone but the slig you controlled on the left is BACK! :( Can we say game glitch? Anyways, you will have to sneak around him in shadows and while he is off-screen, quickly say HELLO and FOLLOW ME to your friend and then WORK when he is in the shadows with you on the left side of the screen. Wait until he walks off to the left. While the slig is off-screen, say HELLO FOLLOW ME and wait for the slig to return. When the slig is as far to the RIGHT as he will go, walk off the left side of the screen and your mudokon friend will follow you. Remember to stop before you step on the bombs! In fact, you might want to deactivate the bombs first. To the left a screen or two are two bombs. I would suggest you Quicksave first. You have to crouch down and hit [] to deactivate the bomb WHEN it blinks GREEN. Sit, watch and listen to the timing for a few seconds. As MacGyver would say, get comfortable with the bomb first. :) You can even Quicksave after you deactivate the first bomb. Now you should be able to get 3 mudokons following you to the birdgate on the FAR left and CHANT to rescue em. One screen to the right of the birdgate is a place where you can climb up. Notice there are little rocks and dust falling off the edge. It's very important you look for this in later levels. There are hidden entrances and not-so-obvious places you climb up and drop down that are revealed by this falling dust and rocks. When you climb up here, there is an air vent to your left that is blocked by a wall. Climb up and then jump to the right and jump into the air vent hole. Walk to the left. There is a Slig to the upper right. You can possess him by chanting. I haven't found a use for him other than to kill him by chanting again. Climb up to the screen above and jump to the left. TUNNEL 1 EXIT - You'll notice an air vent hole here. Remember this area because you need to jump into this air vent to get to the end of Tunnel 1 (Always press UP to go into an air vent). Walk to the left and drop down to where the Slig was before. Now walk to the left (seemingly through the wall) and you find a secret area. Using the teleporter you can rescue 4 mudokons. I don't think I need to explain this. Just keep walking to the right and using the teleporters to find mudokons. There's an air duct you can use as a shortcut back to the main area. Now climb back up to TUNNEL 1 EXIT. ------------- TUNNEL 1 EXIT ------------- Jump into the air vent. It will take you to the end of Tunnel 1 (cool video here). You walk to the right (sneak) and then drop down. There are 6 wheels. Now walk and tiptoe to the left past the slig and climb up to the next screen. You need to say ALL YA FOLLOW ME and get the 5 mudokons to all follow you down. Now tiptoe to the right past the slig and they will all tiptoe with you. On the next screen are 5 wheels. Walk to the right and then will line up under the wheels. Say WORK. These 5 mudokons carry over to tunnel 2 but don't count towards your 75 for the Tunnels. Video where the 5 mudokons drink 99 bottles of Soulstorm Brew and get totally sick and drunk. ------------------------------------------------------ Tunnel 2 Jump across to the right. Now go down a tunnel that looks very similar to the tunnel in Tunnel 1. THERE IS A SECRET AREA HERE. I'll call it Tunnel 2 Secret 1. It's in the lower right corner of this narrow tunnel area where you have to roll. You must press down from a standing position in the lower right corner where there is a piece of rock in the foreground. ------------------------------------------------------ Tunnel 2 Secret 1 The air vent here will take you to where you can rescue 5 mudokons in the background. Say ALL YA FOLLOW ME and lead them to the right. CHANT to rescue them. Then jump across and go up into the air vent which takes you back to the beginning of the level. Go to the right, down through the tunnel, climb up, and roll to the right. Continue below. ------------------------------------------------------ Tunnel 2 cont'd Roll over to the right and there is a flying slig. Hold down RIGHT and R1 so as soon as you are free of the tunnel. Make sure you jump over the hole and then let go of R1 a few steps away from the wall 2 screens over, you duck down and roll into the little tunnel. Roll to the right and you will fall down 3 screens, land in a air vent, and then be thrown up and end up hanging onto a platform. Climb up and step to the right before a slig in the background can shoot you. Quicksave Instead of going up through the door, walk to the right, then run-jump to the left. You miss the platform, fall down and into an air vent which tosses you back up to the new area. Run to the left before you get shot. Go UP through the door and run to the right where there are two sligs. As soon as you've got their attention, run back to the left and go up through the door so you're back in the foreground. CHANT to possess one. He'll get killed by the other slig. CHANT again to possess the other one and then kill him by CHANTing again. Now go up through the door. There will be a slig below. Simply possess him by CHANTing. Have him walk to the left onto the mine. Now go down to the door below and go UP through it. There will be a mudokon on your platform and two below. Say HELLO and FOLLOW ME and then walk off the platform so you're next to a birdgate and air vent. CHANT and rescue all 3. Now jump up through the air vent. This will put you back to the door. Go UP through the door. After a rippling video, you appear in a doorway safe from a flying slig. ------------------------------------------ NEW SECTION!! i.stuart-hamilton@worc.ac.uk ------------------------------------------ CHANT to possess the flying slig. Fly him up, kill the two sligs. Fly to the left and avoiding the drills, fly to the left and kill the slig on the left. In that room to the left of him are 4 mudokons. ---- Jump up into the air vent to the left. You fly up to a platform. You can now safely drop down from this platform since you killed the slig above. Drop down and roll to the left. CHANT to rescue your 4 mudokon friends. Now go back to the right. Climb up and roll to the left. Your 5 drunk mudokon friends can't be helped yet. Instead, walk to the left and walk to the information device. Press UP and it will tell you that you can't rescue them yet. You must complete the Mudanchee and Mudomo Vaults first. Go to the right (the air vent won't work until later) and climb up to the next screen. There is an entrance to the Boiler and a return entrance to Tunnel 2. ------------------------------------------------------ Boiler Access 1 Ok, lots and lots of dogs. This is actually really easy. Don't panic. Just keep walking to the right and climbing down the lifts. At the lowest point, a door closes behind you and on the next screen to the right is a lever you can pull that activates 3 electric fields. Quiksave. Walk to the right and lure some of the dogs to drop down. Run back to the left and stand near the lever so you can pull it and fry the dogs. Repeat for the small dogs. Turn the wheel which opens the door and closes the trapdoor above. Go UP through the door which takes you to Tunnel 3. ------------------------------------------------------ Tunnel 3 Jump up under the bag of rocks and pick up your 9 rocks []. Walk to the right and then roll under the wall. It takes a few rocks to blow up the mines here. If necessary, go back and get more rocks. Walk to the purple arrow and duck down. Toss the rock to the right to blow up this mine. Stand up and stand a step to the right and face left, throw a rock while holding UP to get the mine on the left. Stand a step to the left of the purple arrow to get the mine to the upper right. Jump up and pull both green levers to open the door. Now roll to the right under the wall. ------------------------------------------------------- Tunnel 3 - Secret 1 Throw rocks across to blow up the mines. Now stand at the right edge of the left platform. Jump across and you should be hanging on the edge of the platform. Drop down. You can't just climb down here, you just jump from the left. Climb down and go UP through the door. Walk to the left and jump into the air vent. On this screen, you must pull the green lever and make a bridge for your mudokon friends. First, throw a rock to the left to blow up the mine. Now say HELLO FOLLOW ME and then WAIT (remember, these are blind mudokons) and get them to follow you to the right and stop them before they fall through the trapdoor and get killed by the grinders. To get a mudokon to ignore you so you can tell another one to follow you, say WORK. To get a certain mudokon's attention, stand directly under him when you say HELLO. Quiksave often After you get all the mudokons to walk across the two trapdoors, they will walk over to the right screen. Get them through the 3rd trapdoor (there are different ways to do this) by pulling the green lever. You can tell them to WAIT or whatever you need to do to do this. Now just have all 3 mudokons follow you back to the left and drop them down the trapdoor on the left. Then pull the trapdoor handle and drop down there (you'll have to pull the handle and then run to the left). RESIST the temptation to rescue them. First you need them. Get all 3 following you and walk to where the birdgate is. You can actually walk through the wall to the LEFT of the birdgate. Sneaky bastards! Now you need all 3 mudokons to operate wheels while you operate a 4th. Fortunately, you can just say ALL YA FOLLOW ME and even the blind mudokons will stop in front of the wheels. You might as well get all 3 mudokons to climb on the Lift. Climb up and rescue all 7 mudokons up there. That's it for tunnel 3. Climb back down the lift and then walk to the right and go UP through the door. To return to the main area, jump into the air vent to the left. ------------------------------------------------------- Tunnel 3 cont'd Climb up and then roll to the left. Go UP through the door. Now you are in an area where you roll to the right and doors close behind you. Hopefully you have an extra rock. If not, you will have to run and jump to get a rock to blow up the mine. Quiksave Go to the right and use rocks to blow up all the mines. Be careful not to be too close to a mine that you're blowing up. Good rule of thumb is 6 steps away. The next screen has 6 mines and a grinder that moves left to right. You will have to roll back and forth and throw rocks while avoiding the grinder and not being too close to the mine you're blowing up. Quiksave before attempting this. If you need rocks, just go back to the left and jump up under the rock bag. After you've gotten the 6 mines, you need to follow the grinder, stand up and climb up quickly. Then pull the lever to deactivate it. Drop back down and then drop down to the screen below. Use more rocks to blow up the mines. You don't even have to get rid of all the minse on the next screen. I suggest you bring at least 6 rocks with you when you leave as they come in handy in Tunnel 5. If necessary, throw your present rocks away and then get 9 more from the rock bag. ------------------------------------------------------ Tunnel 3 - Blind Mudokon zone Stand to the right of the blind mudokon and say HELLO FOLLOW ME and pull the lever before he walks over the trapdoor. Now say WAIT. Now CHANT. Either jump up into the air vent to get below. Press UP to go through the door. ------------------------------------------------------ Tunnel 4 Roll under the grinder and pull the lever. Roll to the right, stand up and pull the lever. DUCK DOWN as the grinder keeps moving for a stroke or two. Roll to the right, stand up and pull the lever. DUCK DOWN as the 2 grinders keep moving for a stroke or two. Quiksave Climb up and pull the lever to open the door way back where the blind mudokon is working. Now walk all the way back to the left to your blind mudokon friend. Say HELLO FOLLOW ME and stay close to him, walking just a couple steps in front of him. CHANT to rescue him. This is the only mudokon in Tunnel 4 as the sign states. I've got 36 mudokons so far. ------------------------------------------------------ Tunnel 5 If you don't have a rock, you need to roll under the grinder, then jump over the mine, then roll under the 2nd grinder, then walk to the right and run-jump across the hole, climb up, and say HELLO FOLLOW ME and WAIT and WORK under the wheel to open the door which has a rock bag behind it. If you already have a rock, throw a rock to blow up the mine. Now roll under the two grinders. Go to the right, climb up and walk to the left. Pull the two levers to deactivate the grinders. Say HELLO FOLLOW ME and your mudokon friend will walk to the right. CHANT to rescue him at the birdgate. This will activate the lift. Now blow up the 3 mines (if you need rocks, use the instructions above to get some). Go to the right and say HELLO FOLLOW ME and lead him to the left and then tell him to WAIT at the lift. Climb down the lift and CHANT to rescue your friend. ------------------------------------------------------ Tunnel 5 pt 2 Go to the left and UP through the door. Now look very careful at the MIDDLE of the screen and notice there are some rocks and debris falling. SECRET 1-You have to run-jump across (avoiding the grinder) to get into the secret entrance. Climb up and rescue the two mudokons. Climb back down and drop down. Jump across avoiding the grinder. On the next screen, notice there are rocks and debris falling from what seems like INSIDE the rock face on the right. SECRET 2- Roll to the left holding down R1 and quickly jump up. Now run-jump to the RIGHT and you will land *inside* the rock in a secret area. Climb up and you get to a small area with a pull-string that turns off a grinder later in the level. Drop back down and run-jump to the right. Roll under the wall. Drop down and roll under the 3 grinders. You'll need to run-jump to the left over the hole (until you activate the lift). Walk to the left 2 screens. Climb up and walk to the left. Say ALL YA FOLLOW ME and lead them to the right and then down to the ground below. Pull the green lever which activates the grinder above and raises the lift to the left. Climb down two screens. wait for the slig to leave the screen. Climb down to the bottom and say HELLO FOLLOW ME and when the mudokon is on the lift, climb up to the ledge with the pull-string. Pull the string to kill the slig. Climb down. Walk to the right, climb up, walk to the left, climb up to the screen above. Jump across and jump into the air duct. Walk to the right and pull the lever to activate the lift earlier in the level. Walk back to the right and jump up into the air duct. Climb down and walk to the right, drop down and walk to the left, climb up and say HELLO FOLLOW ME to have the mudokon still on the lift follow you to the right. Say WAIT. Now you have 3 mudokons on this screen waiting. Walk to the right. Climb the lift up and pull the 3 green levers to the right to turn off the 3 grinders. Climb up and you need to run jump to the left and pull the pull-string to turn off all 3 grinders on this screen. If the grinder on the screen to the right is running, you forgot to do Secret 2 above. Now climb up and get all 3 mudokons following you down and to the left and stop them on the lift. Climb down the lift. Walk to the right and say HELLO FOLLOW ME to get the 4th mudokon following you. Tell him to WAIT. Now get all 4 mudokons following you to the left. Tell them all to WAIT. Now get all 7 mudokons following you to the right and over 3 screens to the birdgate (where there were 3 grinders) and CHANT to rescue them all. Walk 3 screens to the left. Climb down the lift. Walk to the right 3 screens and take the exit to Tunnel 6. ------------------------------------------------------ Tunnel 6 Lots of motion detectors on this level. You can't be moving while the detector is sweeping near you. So SNEAK (R2) while walking and stop when the detector is about to sweep you. Go to the right and sneak here. Drop down. Sneak/tiptoe to the right and don't wake the slig. Quiksave if you have to. Sneak to the next screen to the right. Sneak past the motion detector and drop down. Quiksave! Ok, all the mines in this area are on the same pattern. GREEN RED RED GREEN RED RED Touch it with [] (square) when it's green. Sneak to the left and carefully sneak past the slig and two motion detectors. Now you have 4 more bombs to defuse and a motion detector. You can't even move your hand to deactivate a bomb while the detector is in range. Once you get all the bombs deactivated, here's a hint: the motion detectors don't matter anymore! Just hop in the mine car and roll to the right and then roll up the side of the wall, blowing up the bombs and wiping out sligs. The mine car is hanging onto the ceiling. Carefully roll to the right and stay on the left side of the screen. Prepare to drop down [] and land on the slig here. Be careful, you kill your mudokon friends if you roll the minecar over them. Get all 3 mudokons to follow you to safety to the right and CHANT to rescue them. Get back in the mine car [] and roll to the right and then drop down on the slig. Quiksave You need to run to the right, stop in front of the bomb, deactivate it, and then run back to the left before the slig shoots you or your mudokon friend. Then walk back onto the screen and say HELLO FOLLOW ME and run to the left. He will follow you to the left. Make sure you have him way to the left before you hop in the mine car so you don't kill him. Now hop in the mine car and roll to the right, killing the two sligs. Sneak to the right, don't set off the motion detector, and deactivate the bomb. Sneak back to the left without setting off the motion detector. Now say ALL YA FOLLOW ME and walk to the left so they walk all the way to the left. Now hop in the minecar and roll to the right, killing the slig and rolling over the 3 bombs. If you've lost the mine car, you can do this area by sneaking all the way and not waking up the 2nd slig. Much more difficult though. Now go back and lead your mudokon friends to the birdgate at the end. whew. 7 left. Now hop in the mine car and ride it up the wall where the birdgate is and to the left on the ceiling. Take it all the way up and to the right. Notice a platform on the left side of the screen. Climb up and roll to the left and drop down. Secret area. Go UP through the door here and rescue the 4 mudokons. Go back to the left and go UP through the door and then climb up and to the right. Go to the right and sneak/tiptoe (R2). say HELLO FOLLOW ME and get the first mudokon to follow you to the left. Make sure the minecar is to the RIGHT of the mudokon. I haven't tested it more than once, but you can go to the right with the 2 mudokons, bomb, and the slig and make a noise and the run to the left and then hop in the mine car and roll over the slig without killing a mudokon. Now walk to the right and deactive the bomb and rescue all 3 mudokons. That takes care of Tunnel 6! ------------------------------------------------------ Tunnel 7 You start this level in the background. Great fun! Walk to the right, which makes noise. The slig will walk to the right. Wait until he is off screen and then run to the right and climb up to the platform. CHANT to possess the slig in the background. Once controlling him, use him to pull the green lever and then hold DOWN and shoot the slig in the foreground. BE CAREFUL you don't kill any mudokons. If you do, hit START and choose Load and hit [] to load your last Quiksave. Blow up this slig by CHANTing. Walk to the right and jump up into the air vent. Instead of going where you want, you go to a new area. Run to the right, pull the lever, and keep running to the right. Drop down to the right. Drop down to the screen below. Run to the right, pull the lever, and keep running to the right. Jump up on the platform and teleport to the foreground. Walk to the left and get in the minecar. Roll to the left and keep going to the left and then down. Get out of the minecar and have the last 4 mudokons follow you to the left. Now go up through the door to Boiler Access. ------------------------------------------------------ Boiler Access 2 Walk to the left (on the UPPER platform). Run jump and climb up. Just keep climbing up and to the left. Try to hurry as a flying slig is chasing you. On the way up and on the way down, there are some places where you can hide in shadow from the flying slig. Eventually you get to the top which has a green lever. Pull it and run back to the right. Run-jump over to the wheel. Turn the wheel for a few seconds and it cranks the boiler pressure up to 30%. Jump to the left (it saves time to drop down) and then run to the right and run-jump across to the wheel and turn it. Jump back and down to the left and then run to the right and run-jump across and turn the last wheel. This starts a 14 second timer. Drop down and run to the right. You will drop down 3 times but don't let off the RIGHT and R1 buttons until you get to the very last wall. Let off R1 and just push RIGHT and you will go under the wall and roll to the right. FMV and then you move on to the Necrum.
