I am stuck. I loved the trainer. It was a blast. Now I am running around collecting cards and arrow heads and keep running into dead ends. What am I suppose to be doing? There seems to be just too much info you need to know to get through this game. Tried using the WT but that wasn't any fun. Anyone here complete this game?

JohnBoy, I have done the final couple of battles due to it being gardening season, but I'm almost all the way through. Bigmamma may have finished it though.

Are you still in the beginning in the kid's camp? Have you gone up into the tree in the middle to talk to Coach Oleander? Going to your Journal should tell you what your objectives are.

I am roaming around kid's camp and the out skirts. My objective is to complete Sasha's training. But I don't know what all I am suppose to accomplish to complete it.

Travel to sasha's area through the tree stumps. Then talk to him about training. I hope that helps, I'm not 100% positive if that's the next step.

Use your map to enter the GPC area. I copied and pasted this from a walkthrough...

Enter the GPC area. The GPC is the area within the blue fence in the wilderness area.
Go up the metal ramp on the right. Go left and then right to reach the highest dome where a child is crying.
Punch the entrance to it and you get a cut scene.
After the cut scene, go back to the dome where you freed the kid.
You notice a button is missing. If you don't have it out, get the button that Sasha Nein gave you out. Use it and open the door to Sasha's lab.

OK I have done that. I saw the missing button but I don't believe I have it to replace. I will look again. Thanks.

Edit: OK Got it! Having a blast again! JB

It is a greatly fun game. But I am stuck again. cry How do I kill that outrageously huge Tweedly Dee, Tweedly Dum type Boss? lol

Update: Got him.

I am now at the dance party and I am having trouble floating down the loops. I can get through the first one but cannot seem to work my way in the direction of the next loop. Guess I will eventually get it.

Once you get the hang of the loops, it is great training for using the skill later. I seem to remember spending quite a bit of time there though!

Well it appears I will not be able to finish this game. I just can't get the hang of floating through the hoops. I get so tired of playing games I can't finish because of reasons like this. Why can't the designers build in a geriatric mode. One where you can skip the problem part and get on with the game. lol

Awwww JB, I wonder if we can find a saved game? I luckily have a couple of kids with fast reflexes to do that stuff for me. wave

That one gave me fits for days, JohnBoy, so you are not alone. I can't remember what I did, but I finally was able to get through it. I could do with a geriatric mode sometimes too!

I'll see if the game saves in such a way that one can be sent to you...

The problem is that they're training you to do something later than requires similar skills - so you'll have to skip that bit too. This is common in games with an 'action' element - new skills are introduced in a way that allows you to practice for later in the game where the same skill is essential for success.

HI JB-
I too remember those ##**!!@ hoops-I thought I'd never get thru them, but all of a sudden it happened and on I went. loved this game but there are some really tough places and battles to get thru-I had to look at WTs to get advice about strategies to use. I am stalled at the next to last battle-kinda lost interest and quit -it gets really difficult toward the end. But don't get discouraged-just keep trying-if I can do it, anyone can. I hope to get back to it one of these days.
Draclvr-did you ever finish it, or are you still gardening?

Unfortunately, the save system has only 6 slots, if I remember correctly. Now I wish I had made a save folder and put saves in it after completing the worst parts!

Gardening away, bigmamma. Read: 114 tomato plants etc. Plus tons of company visiting from Iowa to Colorado to Germany. One of these days I'll get back to it!!

Yup, that's what I found with the saves too.

yay broccoli Update! I have defeated the death tank(after not playing this game for a month or so) and am now in the meat circus with the replicating bunny monster.
The characters are just so darn cute, it makes me want to keep trying. zombie my inner child,I guess.
JB- are you still hanging in there? Did you get thru the hoops? I thought that was the most challenging of the floating situations.

What seems to work for me is when I try a difficult battle/move and keep failing, I go away and leave it alone for awhile and after 2 or 3 sessions of trying and practicing ,I figure it out.

Draclvr-I can just taste those fresh tomatoes! Hope you can get back to the game sometime-good to know someone else is playing it lol

duh Haven't given up yet, but I'm ready to throw in the towel any day now.
Am half way thru the next battle where you have to blast the big bunny and give the little bunny to Oly and he goes up to a higher level each time. Once I got almost to the top before time up and Oly dies, at which point-back to the bottom again to start all over.
Why oh why do they have save points instead of being able to save as you make progress? That would make it possible to finish these extremely difficult challenges and maybe even finish the game think

I'm with you Bigmamma.....I'd like to ask a developer that question. I assume it has to do with costs or maybe programming ease, but I don't know that and I hate not being able to save at will so much that I often skip games that don't allow that. wave

Have you tried the Walkthrough Here?

I was reading it and it seems to have some good tips for the Tent City, though I don't know if that is where you are. luck

Agree 100%. It infuriates me that you get so close to the finish point and mess up and the game throws you right back at the beginning. Not fair.
