The Goonies'r'good enough User's Manual (Rev.2011) *** GOONIES 'R' GOOD ENOUGH! Astoria, 1985. Goon Docks are about to vanish because of a new country club with a golf course. Mikey can't allow this happens! He makes his mind up to go in search of One-Eyed Willy's treasure: lots of rich stuff to pay the bills and avoid the end of the neighbourhood. This can be his last goonie adventure, or maybe the greatest and the first of many more. Unhappily the Fratellis get involved and add a lot of troubles to the adventure. Mikey needs some help from his friends, who he must find and free in first place. He's sure that everything will be alright if he succeeds in joining the complete band. Help him to free the guys, run away from the Fratellis and find the treasure to save Goon Docks. Be careful: caverns under Astoria are full of nasty creatures and dangerous pirate traps. *** THE GANG Mikey. He has the brains... and he has the key! Whenever you find a goonie, you'll have to use the key to open the cage in order to free him/her. Brand. Mikey's elder brother. Double courage, double strength. He always protects Mikey, Andy and the guys. Mouth. He never stops talking. His father's a plumber: maybe this can help in the adventure. As strong as Mikey, not very corageous but he moves faster. Data. The chinese teen Bond!. His gadgets can be very useful: a powerful mechanic punch to frighten anyone (or anything) is the best one. Stef. Andy's best friend. She's a girl as courageous and strong as any boy. Someone you would want to be with you in a dangerous adventure. Andy. A pretty cheerleader and maybe Brand's girlfriend. Not so courageous nor strong, but she will play her role anyway. Chunk. Chocolate lover. You may think he's kind of useless at first sight, but give him sweets and he will manage anything. *** COURAGE & TELEPHONE BOXES You can control just one goonie at a time. That will be the gang leader for a while. Keep an eye on his/her "guts meter". The game ends when your courage reaches zero. It doesn't matter if other band members are courage-full. Just take care of the current leader! The goonie you're playing with has to be courageous enough to face all that scary stuff. So, if you think your leader is running out of nerve, run towards the nearest TELEPHONE BOX and call another goonie. Let the frightened ones take a rest and they'll recover sooner or later. Be a smart player: change your goonie leader as often as you need. They all have their role to play! Remember: 1) avoid enemies and keep your nerve intact 2) if your courage decreases, look for a Telephone Box to call another goonie less frightened than current leader Whenever you come into a Telephone Box, you'll be able to choose another leader between the freed goonies. Just stay into the box while the change sequence runs and then come out of the box with your chosen new leader. *** RELATIONSHIPS Leader is important to know how fast the resting goonies are recovering their guts-meter. Take this ones in mind: - while controlling Brand as the leader, Mikey will recover his courage very fast because of his elder brother's protection. - Brand gets his nerve back so fast when Andy is the leader. That's the power of love! - Mouth and Stef are always arguing, but they both recover much faster when the other is the leader. Their frienship is stronger than they think. - if Andy feels gorgeous she will be a great (cheer)leader and not only Brand, but all the band will recover faster. Since there's a treasure down there, probably you can find some cute jewels to make her feel beautiful and confident. *** DANGEROUS STUFF First of all, the Fratelli badguys - Jake - Francis Other dangerous creatures - rats - snakes - living skeletons - ghosts - bats - piranhas - pirate skeletons Keep an eye on - water drops - vapour streams - falling stalactites - floor fire eruptions - falling rocks - waterfalls Don't walk over - lava - prickles - water *** KRALIZEC'S CUT The game is divided into different "scenes". In each scene you'll find a small sign stuck to the ground. Read it to learn a special word which will allow you to continue on that scene. That means you can play the complete game in one single shot, from the beginning to the end... ...or you can play by scenes, thanks to saving passwords and Password Screen (available from Title Screen, see "OLD TOC'S CORNER" section for further information). *** BONUS CONTENTS Besides normal game and passwords, there're several secret keywords which activate special game modes. Here you are one of them (not secret anymore): - JERKALERT: hard mode, for serious players. There's another hidden and harder mode for hardcore players. Find out the remaining ones to enjoy special game modes. Just read carefully what the goonies say during the adventure. *** CARTRIDGE COMBINATION Make possible Flush to visit their relatives by inserting "MajiKazo" in slot2.

He's also very useful thanks to his MAP. When you get lost look for a telephone booth and select Brand. Then push STOP key to pause the game and take a look at the map. - Every goonie has a role to play. Use them all. - There's a hidden screen in the map where you'll meet a very special gorgeous singer.
