The original...
DrgnFyre's Forsaken
WALKTHROUGH
(1998)
Below you will find a complete Walkthrough for each level: I have
provided screenshots where necessary, and also the locations of all the
crystals (and shots) - When possible, I have noted secrets throughout
each level. This is mainly meant for people who want to get through the
game, with all the crystals.
These Walkthroughs are very Screenshot Intensive. Unfortunately, the
only real way to do a walkthrough is to SHOW you where to go. I have
tried to summarize as much as possible while still showing the optimal
path. I will be working on making these pages smaller and easier to
download. Each screenshot is approximately 8-16 Kb, which isn't too bad.
However, level 3 has the most screenshots so far with 51 shots. It adds
up. Just so you know. Each Screenshot is 340x480 - The first 4 levels
were captured at 640x480 and manually resized. The remaining levels were
caught at 340x480 so I wouldn't have to resize them. I used Hypersnap DX
to capture all screenshots. It is an EXCELLENT program, and I recommend
it to anyone needing to do screenshots, especially since it supports
Glide and Direct3d.
These pages work best when running at 1024x768 or better (800x600 also
works pretty good), and fullscreen. That way, you can get some
screenshots side by side.
There are also Savegame files for the beginning of each and every level
on my main Forsaken page.

DrgnFyre's Forsaken Crystals WALKTHROUGH.
Level 1 - Volcano. Back to Index.

Well, this Level is pretty straightforward.

You ARE on a time limit, but if you just keep a good pace, it's
nothing to worry about.

Don't forget to grab these gold bars after you kill the first 4
robots.

I understand some people can't get through this first door.
Just shoot it.

You'll want to shoot these "power backup" units.
Doing so gives you some extra gold bars.

Be sure to look around before going on.
There is a Power Up, an Orbital, Solaris, and a Susska here.

Shoot this to make it go down to the next level.

Do NOT Shoot these yet.
Be sure to lure the creatures out of here first, because sometimes when
you kill them, they will hit this as well.

If you don't shoot those power backups, in the next room is a corridor
that leads to this Titan - Secret #1

Here is shown what happens when you shoot the backup.
Notice the missile view is showing you that the secret room is closing
off.

Proceed forward.

You will be able to get 10 gold bars in this level.
Getting 10 Gold Bars gives you an extra life.

See that Star Shape?? Off to the left.
Shoot the hell out of it, and this happens.

What's this? A Crystal!! :) Grab it.

Just go in here and be careful.
I recommend the Susska for those pesky Purge Mines.

And there's the exit.
Perfect Record!! :)
From here on out, I don't think I'll be getting all the enemies and
secrets, but it's something to shoot for. :)
Level 2 - Abandoned Subway. Back to Index.
Be sure to blow up all Barrels, Nuclear holders, etc. Some of them contain
powerups. Be aware though, that some of them contain Active Pine Mines,
Purge Mines and Quantum Mines. OK, first go UP that tunnel right in front
of you.
Shoot the switch and reveal a secret. :)
Go back to the starting position and go down the open grate.
Then go Down that other tunnel and shoot all the enemies. (You can do it.
I know it.)
Kill them all and this door will open. Don't kill them all and...
Well, let's just say it's not pretty.
Now, F6 is an EXCELLENT Idea. You can often see drones sneaking up on you.
I also like to press F5, which is the missile cam. Great for watching to
see if those Solaris Missiles hit. From the door you can't open, look left
and go straight. Down that first tunnel.
Go down here, and shoot this switch. Look out because this will also
activate a whole bunch of purge mines. Then navigate back up the tunnel
and go Left.
See that off to the left? That's the Crystal. Shoot that barrel, and this
happens.
And there you go. 2nd Crystal. Now go back and go Down that Gold Colored
tunnel.
When you get there, you should see a grate hanging down. Go up it and
you'll find another secret. Go back and kill all the enemies. Then you can
go into the power room depicted below.
Now head back up to where you saw the Subway Train. That last switch
turned it on and rammed it right though the wall.
Well. So far, so good. All secrets and all enemies killed up to this
point.
Level 3 - Nuclear Power Station. Back to
Index.
Nothing too hard so far. open the big metal door. Shoot your way in, and
go up the tunnel.
After you go into the shafts, be careful. You'll be sucked down into one
of them. Be ready to shoot the fan or die trying.
Blow all the fans from the other side. Pine mines will appear in their
place. Blow them. Go back up the shafts, and be ready for opposition.
Use the Nitro to physically bump the switch. If you're using Cuvel Clark,
you don't even need Nitro - He's soooo fast. :) Then use the Nitro to go
UP the shaft against the fan and find the gold bars.
Go back down the airshafts (where you blew the fans and pine mines, and
you'll be given an option of which way to go. Go Left (or. in the same
direction as the shafts were). Kinda hard to do left/right in this game.
:)
Like it says. Shoot the Generator. it's that Gold thing off to the left.
2 switches down, 3 to go. Go back the way you came, and go down the other
corridor.
There's a big radioactive thing here you have to avoid. Go down into the
water and it will protect you (because we all Know that Water is the cure
for radioactivity).
Daniel (Target) and Chris (Stench) gave me
an update on a secret right here.
Daniel's - On your Forsaken walkthrough you
indicated that you missed a secret in the Nuclear Power Station. The
one you missed is actually a bitch to find. In the room with the
radioactive crane thing right behind the corner where the turret was
:) is another vent panel like the one that the Titan was hiding behind
earlier. You can shoot it from under water and then use Nitro to get
into the opening quickly to minimize radiation damage.
Chris's - Here's a secret I found missing
from your excellent walkthrough. On level three, when you enter the
water in the radioactive area, turn the first corner and smoke the
turret. Now if you look above where the turret was to the outer wall,
you'll notice that it has a different pattern - three square panels,
blast 'em to reveal a life up, two shields and some gold bars. You
don't take rad damage in the secret alcove but you will getting to it,
so use some Nitro if you have some left.
Keep going and you'll get to another Switch, and a Key, and a Teleporter.
Get all that and go through the Teleporter. You're back where you began
the level.
There is a door that you can now open. Go in it and look up. Be careful of
the falling elevator shaft. Grab the Kaos Shield and shoot everything in
sight.
After you shoot ALL the nuclear barrels, a Bounty Hunter will appear. Kill
her to get the Crystal for this level.
I just got an update on this area from Clutch.s
Great job on the walkthrough. What you might
want to add for level 3 is that before you shoot all the barrels, go
to the room just to the left of where Nubia comes out and shoot the
vent in the wall about ten times, there is a Titan in there. Drones
will come out behind you right after, kill them and finish the
barrels. Then fire the Titan when Nubia comes in and DUCK. The Titan
finishes her in one shot (and you too if you're not careful ). This
vent I'm speaking of is visible from the main chamber with the barrels
in it. In the walkthrough of level 3, you have a picture of Nubia (the
bounty hunter) in the sight of a Solaris missle. Just to the left of
her in the background is the vent with the Titan! Hope this helps.
Go straight and you have a choice. Go Down the shaft to the left, and you
will be able to get an extra life, but at a price. You will have to shoot
your way past 8 green laser turrets, and not worth it in my opinion.
Without the trainer, I died numerous times in this room.
Richard (aiobheil) gave me an update on an
easier way to get this item.
I wanted to comment on the Resnic Reanimator on the nuclear
level (3). The easiest way to get throught this with killing
everything is to grab the reanimator while upside down, then taking
out the four turrets from the safety of being 'below' them. One drops
a Titan, so just use that to take out the four turrets that appear in
the room below. Quick and easy =).
Go UP the shaft on the right and you'll be taken to another switch.
From this switch, you can go Down and view the reactor. No real reason to,
except to maybe take out the turrets so you don't have to later (you come
back through here)
Now, go back the way you came, and go off to the left UP that tunnel. You
will have to go along this Accelerator path to gain access to the last
switch. I usually ignore the path and go down and clear the area first.
Then go all the way back and run the blue path. If you get off the path,
it will let you know by reminding you to stay on the path.
Hit the switch and then look behind you and down a little. There will be 4
crystal bars you can shoot and open. Go into that room and go up (where
those drones came out of). This leads to the reactor. Go straight and
right behind it is the key to open the exit sequence.
Grabbing this key opens the other door you looked in from before. Go
through it to get out of harm's way. From here there are a couple ways to
get OUT, but this is the way I took.
Head back to the "junction room", go back to the room you started from
(will be straight across and to the right - down tunnel). Then go through
the teleporter (thus bypassing the whole radioactive water bit) and then
from there go to the "median" and there will be an open door - Directly
across from those clear double doors on that last screenshot.
I unfortunately did not get all the secrets. I thought I got at least
2, but apparently, the game didn't think so. Oh well, so much for the
perfect record. :(
Chris (Stench) from above, filled me in on the
third secret for the level.
I just finished level three with all three secrets. I think the
last one is just after the reactor room. As you get to the reactor
exit doors a floor panel in the next room explodes. Head down it to
find a turret which when destroyed rewards you with some gold bars.
Carry on through a circular tunnel to be deposited right in front of
the exit.
Level 4 - Thermal Power Station. Back to
Index.
Blow up the barrels off to the left to get a power Orb.
Keep an Eye out for those turrets. They hide. Blow this grate open and
you'll get to a secret area. (FIRST SECRET)
Back UP!! Then shoot these Quantum Mines and go all the way down to the
end grate. There will be an extra Life powerup on the other side because
of it.
Keep going. Shoot these side panels for some shield power ups. Shoot the
barrels to get the key for the bottom opening door, but watch out for that
Pine Mine.
I just got an update from
Oblivian on a secret. As you pass through the corridor that has
the missiles that shoot from the bottom of the floor there will be a
door. Shoot the door. At the top right hand corner of the door is
the secret, enter into it and there will be a gold bar and I think a
life (SECOND SECRET).
Gotta Shoot your way outta this room. then look for the other door.
Go through the teleporter (it will be blue - don't know why the screenshot
didn't come out. :(
Go straight and look in the corner. You will find a tunnel with some gold
and a reanimator (if you got the other secret).
Head back out and you'll be where you started. go through it all again
until you get to where the teleporter was. Head right from there.
Head down away until you get to the turret infestation. Kill everything
until it tells you the turrets have been cleared.
Look around in this room until you find this glowing yellow panel. Shoot
the hell out of it and go get the crystal (THIRD SECRET).
Head down this tunnel and shoot everything that shows up.
The Susska Weapon works pretty good on those pesky purge mines.
Blow this teleporter and proceed.
Blow the caps off the engine covers and watch out for that Flame!
Shoot all the enemies in here and get the 2 keys. Pine Mines are great for
providing support fire. (FOURTH SECRET AREA?).
Kill the Bounty Hunter and take the exit tunnel.
Level 5 - Federal Bank Vault. Back to Index.
Nothing too hard to start with. A LOT of enemies, but you can deal with
them. Go down that first tunnel and shoot the red switch. Then double back
and shoot the bars and get the powerups that were behind the laser field.
This level likes to punish you for grabbing things. Grabbing the Golden
Power Pod, for instance, opens up 4 turrets.
Shoot the switch to deactivate the Firewall. Then look at the key code and
remember it. (Upper Right, Upper Left, Lower Right)
Go past where the firewall was, and shoot that glowing power panel. This
disables the generator. Then go down into the water and get the gold and
the Safe Key. After you've done that, go find the generator and go down
the tunnel.
I just got this update on a secret from Cool Hand Luke. In the
Federal Vault level, there's a secret in the room where you get the
Safe Key that you didn't comment on. You can go in there, collect
everything, blow up the generator panel, kill everything and let your
shields get drained to cheese, because... if you maneuver your bike
into the little "cubbyhole" directly across the room from the
generator panel (the one partially blocked by a stack of silver bars),
you get a full energy (shield) recharge to 255.
Go down the tunnels - Both of them have a side tunnel that is hard to see.
The second one leads to the crystal. When it tells you to "Watch Out",
MOVE!
See what happens when you get "compacted" by a falling roof? All your
powerups get smushed into a little ball. :)
Shoot the top laser mount to deactivate the laser field(s). Then shoot the
panels in the right order (Upper Right, Upper Left, Lower Right) and the
door behind you will unlock. This door leads to the first Vault. Look
around and shoot everything. In here you will find the Green Key Code.
Middle, Upper Right, Lower Left. Head back out and go shoot the rocks to
cause an avalanche. Don't get too close though. Then wait for the fire to
stop and go through. It's all a matter of timing, and you don't even need
Nitro.
Then go down the "green" corridor, and disable the laser screen just like
before. Go in, and shoot the panels in the right order.
Middle, Upper Right, Lower Left. Then the door opens and you can go into
the 2nd Vault. Look around - shoot everything, and find the Blue Key Code.
Middle, Upper Left, Lower Right. Then head back out and go to the "blue"
laser grid. Disable this one just like the others. Go in, and shoot the
panels in the right order.
Shoot the panels, and the 3rd and final vault opens up. Go in there and
shoot the 2 red switches to disable the firewall. Go through the
deactivated firewall, and shoot your way to the exit. You have to get 5
gold bars to turn off the gas. Be as quick as you can, because the gas is
deadly.
And that's the end of this level.
Level 6 - Prison Ship.
Back to Index.
You have to collect a lot of DNA on this level - They look a lot like a
Key, only different. Get out of the path of the flame, and shoot that
switch behind you.
You have to time it right and hit that Red Button. That will disable the
lasers and let you get to the switch. The switch disables the lasers you
were dodging. In there is a couple powerups and a view of things to come.
Colpire il pannello segreto (3° segreto).
Again, shoot the red button to deactivate stuff (In this case those nasty
lasers right in front of you). Go in and get the DNA.
DANGER Will Robinson!! Had to turn 2 of those to greyscale because
they were mostly RED from the overheating. Go in, turn around, and shoot
the two switches. Then there is a button that shows up in the middle.
Shoot it, and you've shut down the engine.
When you get to the Flames, shoot the button to turn them off. Timing
is LIFE here.
Use this lever for the crystals.
When you get here, don't try and get the crystal just yet - You still
need a weapon to access it. Shoot the button behind the gold bars, and
you can get the DNA. Shoot all enemies to turn off that pesky laser, and
proceed.
Keep going, and get ammo from the Armory. Shoot the double doors and
go down. Shoot the switch to turn off the "Intruder Alert". Go Straight.
Shoot the turret, then shoot the button. Stay there until things blow
up. Go down all 4 tunnels in there and blow up all the boxes. You will
get 2 DNA's and a Trojax (which is necessary to get the crystal). Then
go back out and go down the side tunnels. You have to shoot the buttons
to turn off the laser defenses, and then you can go into the side rooms.
Shoot ALL buttons and ALL boxes in these rooms. Grab all the DNA keys
and then head back out. Then head for the crystal.
Shoot the Lighted Guns on top. You have to use the right weapon on each
one. The proper order is Pulsar, Susska, Mug, Trojax. Then grab the
crystal. Be prepared for a big fight because they don't take kindly to
thieves.
Take the corridor that opened when you got all the DNA's (near the armory
and double doors). Go down that hallway, and you will be locked in a room.
Kill everything. Kill the Bounty Hunter, and then follow the lighted path
out of there.
Level 7 - Asteroid Base. Back to Index.
Well, the first thing you have to do is go forward, and clear the way.
Grab the Trojax, and use it to shoot the "headphone looking" switch. This
opens up 2 doors in that first room. You can tell which ones are open
because they are green.

Pick a door and go down it. Kill everything. Shoot the switches. You
have turn on the teleporter, and then you can open the central ring
door. (that's the headphone switch again).
You need to go underneath those 3 green starships. Under there you will
find a "headphone" switch to shoot, and a flower switch as well. The
headphone switch opens up the "upper ring door" and lets you continue
through the level. I cannot remember what the flower switch does. Thanks
to Oliver for pointing out that this part was a little unclear on my
walkthrough.
Well. Just keep going and eventually you will come to the "Flesh Morph".
Good luck. :) Kill IT and you can go up the hole that opens up in the
ceiling.
Go up the hole, get past the red bars, defend yourself. Then go down the
"Hole", and take the first tunnel you can. Shoot everything and you can
shoot the switch. Shoot the switch, and head back. Go down the narrow
tunnel, and look around - you will find the crystal (2° segreto). Then go
back and go down the hole again. Keep going and you'll get to the end
room. Shoot everything and then exit the level.
If you couldn't tell, the TransPulse is my Favorite weapon - I LOVE that
it homes in on targets after it bounces.
Level 8 - Biosphere. Back to Index.
Go forward and watch out for the turret. Get to the two tunnels, and take
the left one. There is a solaris pack in there after you kill the enemies.
However, there is one of those really annoying guys with the lightning gun
there as well, so it's totally up to you. Go down the other tunnel and
clear out the room. Go down the airshaft off to the right.
Donald tipped me off to a secret here. I
noticed in your walk through of the BioSphere you only had one secret.
The other secret is in the first room of the level. Shoot out the
grating to your left.

You have to shoot the Junction box to turn off the lasers. When you
come back to the room with the turrets, look for the hole in the floor.
Leads to a secret.
Watch out for those Fans. Ask yourself if you really need that titan,
because getting it can kill you. If you die, all your stuff gets placed
Dangerously close to the fan blades, which can leave you in a pretty bad
predicament.
You can take any one of these 3 tunnels. 2 of them have fire and will test
your timing. One of them has a few extra gold bars. Once you get to the
fire machine, look around and find the narrow tunnel and go down it.
After you've blown up the Solar Power Generator, double back and go down
the other airshaft. Kill the enemy and get the crystal. Then proceed to
the "laser" tunnel.
Time your way through the defense grid, and be careful. Go into the red
room, and shoot the junction box. Go down the last tunnel, and this takes
you to the end boss. Kill him (Use those Pine Mines) and then you're done.
Level 9 - Subterranean Complex. Back to Index.
Standard Operating Procedure: KILL. When you get to the green stuff and
see "Blow the cap off", shoot all those things sticking out in the green
stuff. When you shoot one of them, the roof will open. Also, there are 8
computer panels you can blow to get a secret. I have tried to show all of
them here.
Go around, shoot all the switches. Watch out for that fire, and go up and
shoot the switch that will deactivate the laser. Go past the lasers, and
shoot the switch in there. This opens up the final switch located past the
flames again. Go shoot that, but first grab the gold - shoot it from a
distance because when you do, the laser on top will start frying anything
under it. Then go back to the main room and shoot the switches to get to
the next area.
Keep going, and at the end of this long corridor is a switch. Shoot it and
a bounty hunter appears - Kill him and the crystal appears. Be careful
when getting the crystal - it is RIGHT next to the exit. Go at it straight
on and save your game just in case.
Level 10 - Capsized Ship. Back to Index.
This is a Hard Level to explain. The first tunnel you need to take is
the "Up" tunnel. This leads to the first junction switch, shown above.
You have to find the button to unlock the door first - it's all in that
narrow room.
Next, you need to go through the double doors from the main room. Go down
a ways, but don't go down all the way just yet. Go into that first side
tunnel, and go through (I think) 2 sets of doors. You will get to a button
that you need to shoot. Shoot it, and it opens up the secret door in the
other room. (Actually, it allows it to be shot open).
Go "down" the other tunnel, and shoot the floor until you find the secret
door. Go down it and you will find a button. Shoot this and the propeller
protecting the crystal stops spinning. Then, go back out and back up to
the main area - go through the double doors from there. Go all the way
down past the red area and such. Keep going and you will get to another
primer. Past that is the Crystal for this level.
When you first saw this area, you probably went right by it. Shoot the
floor grate, and it opens up to another area with another primer. Shoot it
and go back to the "main" room". Go back "down" and into the water (not
the secret one you opened up)
BIG BADDA BOOM (for all you 5th Element Fans)!!!! If you strayed from the
path earlier and came down here before, you got the message "Something BIG
Holds the key" - They weren't Kidding!!! Pine mines are EXCELLENT support
fire. Especially since you have to come back through this area shortly.
KILL the big things and go through the double doors.
Go through those doors, and you will come up to the detonator. Shoot it,
and then go back out all the way up to the main room. Go through the
double doors, and down all the way. Go to where the "floor grate" was, and
look up. There is a glowing green ceiling tile. Shoot it and go all the
way up. End of level.
Man, I Can't Believe I missed the # of Crystals screenshot. I assure
you, it said 10 crystals found so far. :)
Level 11 - Orbital Space Station. Back to
Index.
Well, first you have to go around and activate all the solar panels. There
are 4 of them to turn on.
After the solar panels are activated, go down the new tunnel. Look around
and you'll see the crystal - you can't get to it just yet, though. Go down
from the main room in this area, and you'll get to the "crew quarters and
restricted area". Shoot your way around and grab everything. Go through
the wind tunnel at the bottom to get a key and the very important Nitro.
Save the Nitro because you will need it later.
Once you've gone to all the areas below, and kill the resulting swarms
back up above, you will be able to get into the now unlocked door. Go in
there, and shoot the switch. This lets you get the crystal. Do so, then go
to the "G Force" Chamber.
Use the Nitro and time it just right to get over to the switch. You have
to do it in 3 steps. Go for the closest open area, then the next, then the
next.
After you've gotten past the G Force room, go back out to the main room
and go through the teleporter. These teleporters fail at an alarming rate,
and only work once. After the first one, look around, and then you will
eventually get to a switch. Throw it and you will start the exit sequence.
You'll have to go through a couple more teleporters, and then fight your
way to the shuttle. And that's the end of the level.
Level 12 - Shuttle Bay. Back to Index.
I won't bore you with the little things. Just Plod your way through. Kinda
hard at first because of where they hide, but stick with it.
After you've unlocked the door that leads to the water, head back, and
there is a secret area subtly marked with a mine.
Don't you just love how they tease you? "Entering exit area - Warning,
your presence has been detected - Exit Closed"
Shoot the red "command" box, and this will show you a secret behind the
viewscreen. Go down that first tunnel on the left, and shoot the button.
Double back and straight ahead will be a green glowing wall. Shoot that,
and get the crystal. Turn around, and proceed normally.
Watch out for that metatank. It's a killer.
Just keep going and get to the landing pad. Fly up and you're outta there.
Level 13 - Military Base.
Back to Index.
Well. Go down the path that is open to you. Go through the top tunnel
first in order to get the power pod. Then double back and take the lower
one.
Shoot the sparking panel behind the boxes to activate the forklift. If you
want to crash the game, shoot it a bunch of times in a row. :) :)
After you've been through that area, go back to the start area and you'll
have another door that opened up for you.
Shoot the switch and this opens another door.
Get the bombs along the way. There are 5 total, and it will keep a count
for you as you go.
Follow the train, and look for a tunnel above you. Leads to a gold bar.
Also leads to another bomb.
Other than causing a LOT of damage, I don't know why you would blow up
these rockets. Look around and you'll find a switch in one of the rocket
tubes.
Here is where you get the 4th bomb. Look around and get the crystal.
(Look UP).
See that panel under the ship? Isn't it odd that if you shoot it, your
shots go through it?? Maybe it's a secret area.
Now be a good boy, and go play "Shoot all the switches".
Shoot the computer and it will unlock the exit.
Level 14 - Tloloc Temple. Back to Index.
Shoot the two snake heads to turn off the Underwater fan of Death. I will
not bother you with the expletives that I uttered the first time I went
through this puzzle, and DIDN'T Shoot the cobras. Incidentally, it CAN BE
DONE without turning off the fan, if you're one of those crazed sadistic
people that really really really like to torture yourselves. Also, after
you turn off the fan, it does eventually come back on, so don't hang
around down there too long.
In the next area, shoot the two "faces", and go to the red glowing wall.
You will be transported to a secret area. Shoot enough drones in this area
and get a reward. There is also a KAOS Shield in here.
When you get here, BOOK. There is a wall that shoots missiles right behind
you, but they tempt you with a nice weapon. Save early, and save often.
Ignore the crystal for now. You will be able to get it later if you're
very very fast.
OOOH BOY. Look out for those nasty missiles that thing shoots.
See that cobra path on the floor? Follow it PRECISELY or be blown away to
bits in no time.
The AVATAR is basically a really really really big tank. Notice that pine
mines help considerably in getting rid of it. Just be sure you don't get
too close to them yourself. After you kill the Avatar, you have 2 minutes
to get out, so save your game.
Shoot the Bounty Hunter and get the golden idol in order to leave. Also,
you need to get the idol in order to open the bars locking the crystal
away. You have to HUUUUURRRRYYYYY in order to get the crystal, but it can
be done. Note the 00:24:48 - heh. I DIED!!! arrghh. Mostly because taking
screenshots took time though. just reloaded and was able to get it no
problem.
Then just go back to the room you started in and shoot the wall. It will
open, but it takes it's sweet time doing it. Convenient since your life is
on the line. If you have gotten ALL the Crystals up to this point, you
will be rewarded with a secret level.
Level 15 - Ancient Temple (Secret Level). Back
to Index.
Well, in order to even GET to this level, you must have collected ALL the
crystals up to this point. If you get the secret crystal in this level,
you get to use the FlyGirl Bike for single & Multi Player from now on.
The Secret to getting the Crystal in this level is the Pool of Life. EVERY
time that the game tells you "Pool of life is active", you need to
immediately book back to the pool and kill all the baddies that are there.
Then you can proceed to what you were doing. You have to do this 5 times,
and then the crystal will appear in the very last room. You must also find
both secrets in the game in order to get the crystal.
You need to be careful of this thing. Shoot the hell out of it and it will
eventually blow into tiny bits.
Here is the first secret. Shoot the faces until you find the one that
opens up.
Here is the Second Secret - Shoot the glowing snake head, then shoot the
baddies - then shoot the next snake head, etc. Notice that it tells you
the pool is active. Head back and kill the baddies there. Pool of life is
Active, so head back and clear out the bad guys.
Again, pool of life is active. You know what to do.
Fourth time that the Pool is Active. BE CAREFUL. When you head back
towards the "crystal room" (the one with the clear type walls running
through it), a Titan will be launched. I suggest waiting until it starts
to count down, and then back out.
This is the last thing a bug sees before it hits the windshield. Rather,
This is the last thing you see when a Titan missile kills you.
Ok. this room took me a while to figure out. It's pretty mean. "There is
no fire without smoke" means shoot the things that are smoking and I won't
FRY Your ass. Shoot those two green things as fast as you can. Save Early
and Save Often.
Fifth and final time that the pool is active. Go back and clear it out.
When you head out, it will tell you that a crystal has appeared.
Make sure this is the last corridor you head down. Head down the others
first, as this takes you to the end. Go In and kill everything, including
under the bridge. Kill enough enemies, and it will reward you.
Only took me about 4 lives to figure this one out. "It's like hitting your
head against a brick wall" means Hit your head (bike) against the walls.
Specifically, into those 4 non-glowing heads. If you shot enough enemies
under the bridge, your reward is the golden power pod.
And that, as they say, is That. That is the end of the levels, and the end
of the games. Now go in and choose bikes, and you will notice that you
have a new choice - FlyGirl. Not really any more powerful or less than any
of the other bikers - Akklaim and Probe did have to keep balance for
MultiPlay, but I kinda had hoped for something more than just another
bike. Just my 2 cents. Hope you enjoyed the game as much as I did, and
that you only came here as a last resort (or for the pretty pictures).
Crystal WALKTHROUGH. Back to Index.
Here I have listed the location of all the crystals in the game.
Although I cover this in my complete walkthrough as well, I thought I
would just list the crystals here and provide Screenshots of where each
Crystal is.
Level 1 - Volcano.
First, you must kill ALL enemies. Then, where you get the 10th Gold Bar
(the tunnels before the volcano) - between the 5ft and 15ft (narrow)
lava pit there is a wall that looks like a star (or the wormhole in Deep
Space 9). Shoot this - A Lot. It will open up the wall and the crystal
is behind it.
Level 2 - Subway.
Keep your eyes open - You will be able to see the crystal behind a few
walls. Shoot into the space you can see it from - there is a barrel
there that will explode and open up that area for you.
Level 3 - Nuclear Power Station.
Right after you get to the point of the Chaos Shield. In that room, if
you blow up all the nuclear barrels, a Bounty Hunter will appear - Kill
the Bounty Hunter and get the crystal.
Level 4 - Thermal Power Station.
There's a Yellow Glowing wall in a 'air duct' type of thing. You come in
this room from the top and you'll see a side exit. Blow away the yellow
glowing wall and it goes up into the air duct system, and that's where the
crystal is.
Level 5 - Bank Vault.
Before you get to the Laser Areas, there are two tunnels that go "down".
In both of these tunnels are side tunnels - Gotta look for them, they
merge pretty well. In the second side tunnel is the crystal.
Level 6 - Prison Ship.
You can't miss it. The order to shoot the guns is: Pulsar, Susska, Mug.
Trojax - Get the Trojax near the end. You can't miss it if you explore all
the rooms and blow up all the barrels.
(NOTE - Until 5/17/98 this had
the trojax and mug order mixed up. It is correct now).
Level 7 - Asteroid Base.
After the red bars that move when you get near them, there will be a
circular tunnel and a narrow tunnel. Go down the circular tunnel and take
the first side exit you can. Explore there and shoot the switch to
"deactivate Force Field". Then go back and go through the narrow tunnel -
Look around and you will find the crystal. Then go back down the circular
tunnel to get to the end of the level.
Level 8 - BioSphere.
After destroying the big solar generator thing, go back to the big fans -
Blowing up the generator stopped one of the fans. Go into that room and
kill everything and you will get the crystal.
Level 9 - Subterranean Complex.
Right near the end of the Level, you will have to hit a switch to activate
the exit doors - hitting the button will sick the Foetoid bounty hunter on
you. Kill him and he has the crystal.
Level 10 - Capsized Ship.
You have to find the secret underwater area to hit a switch that turns off
the fan guarding the crystal. Hehe. :) Search around and you will find a
button that you shoot - it will say something like "door unlocked" - then
go back to the room where you first went underwater- there is a floor tile
that you can blow and it leads to another underwater area. In there is yet
another switch and that turns off the big fan that is guarding the crystal
in yet another area (which you have to go to anyway).
Level 11 - Orbital Space Station.
You need to kill enough enemies to unlock a secret area. In this secret
area is a switch which will unlock the crystal. The crystal is pretty easy
to find.
Level 12 - Shuttle Bay.
After the "Briefing Room" (which has an extra secret if you shoot that
little red box), there will be a corridor you go down. Down that corridor
is a button - Shoot the button and head back to the Briefing Room - Just
go straight across and you'll see the secret entrance that opened up. That
is where you will find the crystal.
Level 13 - Military Base.
Right where you get the 4th bomb is a corridor you can go down and get
gold bars. It's an "observation deck" for the nuclear missile silos you
passed through earlier. When heading back out, look up - there is a secret
passage that leads to the crystal. You will know which corridor I'm
talking about because it should be the last bomb you have to get - there
will be a laser turret between two "columns", and the gold is down a
corridor marked "Caution: Keep Out" and has green lighting around it. If
you get to "decontamination Sequence", you've gone too far.
Level 14 - Tloloc Temple.
You will see the crystal locked away in the "Laser Room". Remember where
it is. At the end of the level, you will have to kill a Bounty Hunter in
order to get the Golden Idol so you can leave - HURRY and double back and
go get the crystal. It will unlock when you have the Idol from the Bounty
Hunter. Timing is important, and hit the savegame often. Also, don't make
the mistake I made the first time while trying to get the first idol from
that big underwater fan. When you see it, you'll know what I mean - Shoot
the Two Snake Heads, and the underwater fan will Temporarily turn off.
Level 15 - Ancient Temple (SECRET LEVEL).
In order to even get to this level, you must have acquired ALL the
crystals in the game so far. If you get the crystal in this level and
get out alive, you get a special bike you can use.
The key to getting the last crystal is
the Pool of Life. As you go throughout the level, you will see "Pool of
Life Active". EVERY time you see that message, drop what you are doing,
and go back to the pool of life. Watch out because about the 4th time
you head back, you will get shot at with a Titan Missile. Each time you
go back, kill all the enemies that pop up and then go back to your
business. You have to do this 5 times. The last time when you head back
through it will say "a crystal has appeared" and a little view of the
crystal will appear. Go back down to where the "Idols" and the laser
fields is. There is a room which is very dark and has a bridge in it
(it's dark UNDER the bridge) - kill all life in here and you'll get
"You've earned yourself a reward". Then keep going down the wind tunnel
till you get to the "garbage compactor" room. Manually bump all four
glowing heads and the floor will go down. In the next room is the
exit/crystal.
It was brought to my attention that you must find BOTH secrets in this
level or you will not be prompted to return to the crystal enough times.
The first secret in this level is in the room with the "clear" door. You
have to kill all the enemies in this room and that door will unlock. In
this room there are 4 cornered walls with "Idols" pictured on them.
Shoot these walls. Hitting one of them twice opens up a secret door.
The Second secret is in the room with the blue tunnel thing. There are 4
snakeheads on the ceiling. You will notice that one of them is glowing
(basked in a colored light) - Shoot it and an enemy appears. Kill him
and a different snakehead glows. Do this 4 times and it will say "You
have discovered a secret".
