Captain Claw General Tips: ------------- Submitted by: SparkBoy Email: sparkboy@dr.com *Pickup and throw the powder kegs instead of wasting precious ammo *You do not have very many magic attacks to use in Claw. Only use magic if you can defeat at least two enemies with one attack. *Jump and throw dynamite to get at those hard to reach places *Use the Catnip Power-up to get the items that are normally out of reach, but be quick, as your Catnip will not last very long! *Extra lives are awarded every one million points. Try and find as much Treasure as you can to rack up your score! *Pickup and throw your enemies whenever you have the chance. Save your ammo for the enemies that have long-range attacks to use against you. *Don't hoard your Pistol Ammo and Dynamite. Use these against the regular enemies in the levels as these weapons normally will not work against the Bosses in the game. *Always, be on the lookout for Warps and secrets in the levels. The warp areas will contain the best treasure, and are also the only way to collect all of the treasure in the level. *There is one Super Secret area in level 11, one in level 13, and one in level 14. You don't need Catnip to get to these areas, but they are extremely hard to find. See if you can find all three of them! Defeating Specific Enemies: --------------------------- *The best trick to defeat the Robber Thieves and Cutthroats, on levels 3 and 4, is to dodge their arrows and knives and attack them with a high slash attack. *The white and brown Guard Dogs, on levels 5 and 6, are very defensive. Your sword will rarely do damage against them. *Use your pistol on them instead! *The Bear Sailors on levels 7, 8, and 13 will try to grab and crush you. If you get grabbed, quickly press as many buttons and movements as you can to get out of the attack. *Red Tail Pirates on levels 7, 8, and 13 hate to be punched. They are most vulnerable to an attack immediately after they swing at you. *A quick way to defeat the crabs on level 7 is to use a Magic Claw. *Peg Leg Pirates on levels 9 and 10 will be stunned if you hit them in their peg leg. They also hate to be punched. *Crazy Hook Pirates on levels 9 and 10 will swing their hooks at you. After they swing, you can run in close to hit them. *The Mercats on levels 11 and 12 will shoot tridents at you if they see you. Try to stay out of sight and come in for a sneak attack. *The Sirens on level 11 and 12 will freeze you if they hit you with their attack so make sure that you rid the area of any *Mercats before you get near the Sirens. *The Royal Tiger Guards on level 14, hate to be picked up and thrown. Defeating Bosses: ----------------- Le Rauxe, (level 2) Jump towards Le Rauxe and as you come down from the jump, attack him. Immediately crouch and attack La Rauxe again and then jump back, out of the way of his attack. If you get too close to a wall, jump over Le Rauxe to the other side of the room and start your attack pattern again. Don't stand still for very long, and you'll lacerate Le Rauxe in no time! Katherine, (level 4) Jump towards Katherine and hit her with a high slash attack. As soon as your feet hit the ground, jump away from her and repeat. If you happen to stun Katherine, kneel down in front of her and attack as many times as you can. Running away does not work against Katherine, as her whip will be able to hit you wherever you go. Keep jumping and you'll kill Katherine, quickly! Wolvington, (level 6) Jump towards Wolvington and hit him with a high slash attack. Immediately attack Wolvington with a low slash to force him back. Now, quickly jump towards him and repeat. Wolvington will shoot magic attacks at you, so be prepared to dodge like crazy! If you stay fairly close to him, he won't shoot attacks at you, but he will try close range attacks, so be careful. Keep it up and you'll waste Wolvington! Gabriel, (level 8) Jump up the disappearing platforms to the top and then jump to the right and hit the switch on the mast. This will tilt the cannon so that it's pointing at Gabriel. Then next time Gabriel fires a cannonball at you, it will hit him instead. Now, just jump back up the platforms and repeat until Gabriel does himself in! Fend off the enemies that hop down to fight you, and try the best you can to avoid the explosions while you're hitting that switch and you'll win! Marrow, (level 10) Wait by the pit and hit the parrot when you see it fly towards you. After you hit the parrot three times, the bridge will appear. Run across the bridge and use a jumping high slash attack on Marrow. Once you hit Marrow five times, the parrot will pick Marrow up and fly to the opposite side of the screen. Quickly jump up to the platform and wait for the parrot again. Keep repeating until you mash Marrow! Aquatis, (level 12) Use your sword to hit the three tentacles and get them out of your way. Now, run to the right edge of the platform and heave a stick of dynamite by holding the button down, into a small hole just behind Aquatis. The dynamite will explode in the hole and shake loose a stalactite from the ceiling. The stalactite will fall and do damage to Aquatis. Now, quickly run as far to the left as you can to avoid Aquatis' tentacle frenzy and then repeat. There is no need to stand on the small floating platform next to Aquatis for any reason. Keep it up and you'll soon abolish Aquatis! Red Tail, (level 13) The first thing you want to do, is to hop up onto the platform above you. You'll be torn to shreds if you stay on the ground. Stay up high to avoid most of Red Tail's attacks. Once you are up above, try and stay right over Red Tail as he runs back and forth. When he jumps up to your platform, kneel down and attack when he lands from his jump. He should then jump back down to the ground. Stay up there and repeat until Red Tail is roasted! If you'd like a little extra help with Red Tail, stay on the bottom and run like crazy to the right. Make a running jump out into the water and you will land on a hidden platform in the water. Keep going to the right and grab the special goodies then ride the moving platform back to the battle! Omar, (level 14) Omar has protective shields going around him, so your special attacks aren't going to do any damage on him. Drop down to the area below and look at Omar to see what shield he has around himself. Omar switches between a Fire shield and an Ice shield, so if you see a Fire shield, climb up the ladder and follow the right path. Climb down the next ladder and go to the right. Grab the Ice Sword and return to Omar. Now, shoot an Ice bolt through the opening in Omar's shield to do damage. If you see an Ice shield, climb up the ladder and follow the left path. Climb down the next ladder and go to the left. Grab the Fire Sword and return to Omar. Now, shoot a Fire bolt through the opening in Omar's shield to do damage. Keep doing this until you obliterate Omar. Now, climb up the ladder and ride the lift up to the top. You'll need to time your jumps over the lava and Omar's attacks and jump over to him. Once you are next to Omar, attack him with your sword to do damage. Now, go over to the opposite side and repeat until you win the game!
