PrinceWatercress plays Slider (Game Gear) - Part 8 of 8

The game saves some of the toughest boards for last. At least this game is over.

First | Previous

Level 89

Password: PAJI

Compared to everything in the last video, this level is dreadfully easy. You just have a bunch of chambers with monsters spawners that release Tentacles in each one, and not a pit in sight.

Level 90

Password: ECAG

Another easy level. It's a maze full of narrow passages. Be careful with the monster spawners as well as the cracked tiles.

Level 91

Password: NCJI

You have a couple of circular areas here, including one full of conveyor belt tiles. Make sure that the blue explosion tile is the last one that you step on.

Level 92

Password: ELAP

The three teleporter tiles over here will make it easier to run around the level and get to where you need to go. The blue explosion tiles will definitely help with opening the level up, and most of them are easy to step on and then back away from, save for one near the lower-left corner of the level.

Level 93

Password: NLJB

Hit the upper blue explosive tile at the start. This will make things a little easier. You'll need to slip past an undefeatable fireball enemy to get to the teleporter. Once you're there, you'll have some more room to maneuver. Be careful when taking out the set of four blue explosive tiles and getting away. Save the ice tile path leading to the cracked tile for last.

Level 94

Password: ECCI

For this one, walk through the cracked tile paths without stopping. At least here, you'll have enemies that can turn pits into tiles in case you make a mistake (should they ever come your way). All in all, not that bad a level. I managed to get all four bears for once in this level.

Level 95

Password: NCLK

This level sucks.

You will be relying on the enemies to create as many tiles as possible so that you can move around on the conveyor belt tiles at the start without falling or sliding into a pit. This level took way too much time to get through. The more pits that get covered up with tiles here, the better. If you can get to the green exit door, get to it and get out of this nightmare of a level.

Level 96

Password: ELCB

On the right side of the level, hit the lower of the two blue explosive tiles. Also, save the nook with the cracked tiles that require sliding on ice tiles to enter for last...assuming the fireball enemy stays away from it, that is!

Level 97

Password: NLLD

Save the lower-left corner for last if you can. If you can get the shoes for the conveyor belt tile section, get them, as they will make that area a lot easier. As for the blue explosion tiles, it's pretty easy to just hit two and get rid of the rest if you're paying attention.

Level 98

Password: GCAI

The far-left tiles are the worst, due to the enemy spawner with the fireball being the worst. You'll need to stand near the edge in order to trick it into falling into the pit. As for the ice tiles near that area, as long as you don't slide around horizontally at the center, you will be fine.

Level 99

Password: PCJK

You have a massive amount of blue explosive tiles. Be ready to run through them with reckless abandon, even though the enemies here can still create tiles. At least this isn't too bad. Also, I had to grab a door just to end this level a tad early.

Once you beat Level 99, Slider will rescue his girlfriend and save the land, then you'll get "The End" and sent back to the title screen. You just beat Slider!

PrinceWatercress plays Slider (Game Gear) - Part 7 of 8

The occurrences of enemies destroying walls and creating tiles escalates in the last fifth of the game's levels.

First | Previous | End

Level 81

Password: NAJG

This time around, you have nothing but walls, pits, teleporters, blue explosion tiles and enemy spawners full of enemies who will create tiles as they move towards the pits. You'll have to rely on the enemies to make a path through the level so that you can clear it. 

Level 82

Password: EJAN

You'll need to rely on the enemies at the start to make tiles so you can access the rest of the level. Thankfully, the level isn't too much of a mess, and if you hit an area earlier than you should, the enemies here will be able to bail you out. At least you have the ghost enemies and not the ones that move around slowly and randomly.

Level 83

Password: NJJP

Oh, boy. You'll need to rely on the flame enemies hitting the square walls to allow access to the last few tiles around here, because the environment in his level wasn't bad enough.

Level 84

Password: EACG

You have four blue tiles and a green explosive tile in this maze. Thankfully, it's easy to tell which tiles are blue (and which one is the green explosion tile). Watch out for the enemy spawners so they don't clap open and closed on you.

Level 85

Password: NALI

It's time for another maze full of narrow paths surrounded by bottomless pits. There are a few cracked tiles that you had better be ready to hit and back away from. I also managed to luck out and get the shoes here, which work miracles with the conveyor belt tiles here.

Level 86

Password: EJCP

You'll need the flame enemies to destroy the walls and create some tiles out of pits so you can access more of the level. Save the cracked tiles near the start for last, as it is easy to get trapped and make it impossible to clear the level if you don't. 

Level 87

Password: NJLB

Wow! Even more enemy reliance! At least you have more room with the narrow path that you start with. I also lucked out and go the laser gun to destroy the walls with here.

Level 88

Password: GAAG

If you don't have the laser gun at the start, you'll need the enemies here to make a path so you can get around. Once you're able to move around, you'll have a lot of room...and so will the enemies.

PrinceWatercress plays Slider (Game Gear) - Part 6 of 8

Now the levels are getting really difficult...

First | Previous | Next | End

Level 70

Password: AGEK

The left of the start is harder to work with due to the narrow paths and the conveyor belts near the pits. When you head there, make the cracked tile the last one you hit and use the teleporter pad near it afterwards. 

Level 71

Password: JGNM 

If you don't have the laser gun, you're going to have to wait for the flame enemies to break a wall for you at the start. Also, get the two tiles on the other side of the long ice tile path last.

Level 72

Password: APED

There are a lot of blue explosive tiles at the start. When you back away from them, make sure you don't fall into a pit as you get as much distance as possible. I ended up having to use the green door when it popped up, as this level can be a little annoying.

Level 73

Password: JPNF

You have a whole ring of conveyor belt tiles that circle around the level. As for the inner part of it, save the blue explosive tiles for last. You'll want to not only be able to hit them and get away from them, but also that you can end the level when you hit the last one.

Level 74

Password: AGGM

For this level, circle around the area, then zoom right across the center from the left side of the level. Problem solved.

Level 75

Password: JGPO

Make use of the teleporters at the start of the level so you don't die on the right side of the area. Also, I managed to get and reach the green exit door in record time here.

Level 76

Password: APGF

Pay attention to the floor, as there are four blue tiles in this evel and you'll need to hit all four of them. Thankfully, it's not too hard to pay attention and see which ones are blue.

Level 77

Password: JPPH

This level is more or less the same as Level 64. Just run down the level and hit all the blue explosive tiles without stopping. 

Level 78

Password: CGEM

We have a maze full of conveyor belt tiles, and if a tile is not a conveyor belt, it is either an enemy spawner or a pit. For best results, go to the right at the start and follow the path, then loop down and left back to the start before handling the other side of the level, which is more open. The teleporters help if you're a bit of a butterfingers with the D-Pad.

Level 79

Password: LGNO

The teleporter at the start will take you between the starting area and the left side of the level; save the three cracked tiles near the wall separating the areas for last. As for the rest of the level, you'll need the fire enemies to run into the walls to open it up. Good thing I found the green exit door!

Level 80

Password: EAAE

It's a checkerboard of bottomless pits and ice tiles, and you'll need to rely on the enemies to make tiles out of the pits so you can get virtually anywhere. Use the teleporter areas to switch between the three areas of the level, and be very careful where you're going.

PrinceWatercress plays Slider (Game Gear) - Part 5 of 8

Level 64 was really, really annoying.

First | Previous | Next | End

Level 58

Password: CGAI

You can go through this level pretty linearly. Save the row of blue explosion tiles for last. If you can't get to the far right side of the level the long way anymore, use the teleporter pad.

Level 59

Password: LGJK

It's all conveyor belt tiles here. Be careful near pits. If the shoes pop up, get them.

Level 60

Password: AEEI

It's back to a more linear board (of sorts) for Level 60. The left side of the level is full of ice tile paths, so pause the game and plot where you need to go ahead of time if you need to.

Level 61

Password: JENK

It's one whole path full of conveyor belt tiles. Head to the side and head straight back to hit the cracked tiles along the way. Before you rush through it though, go right at the start, take the teleporter tile and hit the lone tile near the pit at the end of the path; otherwise, you'll run out of time and lose a life trying to get back there.

Level 62

Password: ANEB

For some reason, all the tiles here are green. Interestingly, you won't need the teleporter tile here.

Level 63

Password: JNND

Use the teleporter tile at the start and get all the tiles you can, then let the enemies create tiles out of the bottomless pits and take care of the rest. The Tentacles enemies make this a lot harder than it should be.

Level 64

Password: AEGK

The blue explosive tiles are set up in such a way that you can keep running forward through them from one side to the other and blast through the level in seconds flat. Watch out for enemies as you do this. After that, the enemies will start making their own tiles as they move towards the bottomless pits that you've made, which will explain the teleporter tiles that are all over the place. You'll need to teleport everywhere just to get the tiles counter down to zero as quickly as possible, so watch out for enemies, and if you can collect a weapon that will make dealing with enemies easier, collect it. Also, if the green door pops up, get to it immediately.

Level 65

Password: JEPM

The conveyor belt tiles are the hardest part of this level, as they are all near pits. You'll want to quickly move away from the pits while you're hitting all of these tiles. 

Level 66

Password: ANGD

This level is another narrow maze-like path surrounded by bottomless pits. You'll want to save the cracked tiles all the way to the sides for last, as you'll need to slide across ice tiles to get to them. If the shoes pop up, go out of your way to grab them. They will definitely help with the freedom of movement that they give you.

Level 67

Password: JNPF

Be careful with the cracked tiles surrounding the conveyor belt tiles on the left side of the level; for best results, you'll want to zig-zag with the conveyor belt tiles rather than against them. 

Level 68

Password: CEEK

The blue explosive tile near the start will turn two walls into blue tiles when you step onto it, and you'll have to wait for the game to give you the laser gun power-up that lets you fire into walls if you don't have it, since you won't be able to get to those two tiles otherwise. I ended up having to wait for the green door to pop up just to clear this level.

Level 69

Password: LENM

You've got another narrow area to through here. I managed to luck out and get the laser gun here, but if you can't get it, you'll have to rely on the fireball enemies here to destroy the walls for you, as some of the tiles are completely surrounded by walls.

The wings show up for the first time for me here. They make Slider move faster if you collect them.

PrinceWatercress plays Slider (Game Gear) - Part 4 of 8

Not as many levels here as in previous videos. This is where the game starts getting tougher.

First | Previous | Next | End

Level 46

Password: ANCP

For this level, I head right and use the teleporter tile to work my way back to the left and then advance back towards the start. It makes it a little easier to deal with the conveyor belt tiles at the end.

Level 47

Password: JNLB

This is yet another level that happens to be much of a no-brainer. Just watch out for the enemy spawners. I managed to luck out and get the shoes here.

Level 48

Password: CEAG

Work on the far right corners first before working on the rest of the level, and save the loop with the cracked tiles for last. The rest of the level is one narrow path, but it is easy to avoid the enemies if you know what you're doing.

Level 49

Password: LEJI

There are blue explosion tiles on the far left side of the level. Once you hit them, get back to the center of the level. You can either hit them first or hit them last, depending on how you want to do things. The teleporter pads make things a little easier here, too.

Level 50

Password: AGAG

I save the two conveyor belt tiles leading to the ice tile and the pit for last. You could do the same for the explosive tile near the start, but thankfully, hitting it does not lock you out of hitting all the tiles here. Also, there is no reason to enter the area full of ice tiles on the left end, as there is nothing to do there.

Level 51

Password: JGJI

I head to the right first, as that end of the level is the easiest to work on. Left is a little harder, as you have an area with a cracked tile that you can save for last.

Level 52

Password: APAP

Another linear level as long as you do not double back on the cracked tiles. That's it, really.

Level 53

Password: JPJB

This is one of the hardest levels in the game. You may have to hold Buttons 1 and 2 while paused and then un-pause the game in case you don't step on the blue explosive tiles and then run away in the proper directions to save yourself while still having a path on all the tiles. It should be mentioned that if you use the level reset trick, you'll lose a life, but you'll keep your current weapon. Any properties such as the Laser Gun or the Freeze Gun will be taken away, though.

Level 54

Password: AGCI

Use the teleporter pads to go between the two sides of the level. Save the conveyor belt tiles and cracked tile for last.

Level 55

Password: JGLK

You have ice tiles at the many junctions in the path, so pause your game and check where you're going. In case you hit the left or right edge of a level while sliding on ice tiles, you'll be free to move where you want. Thankfully, I lucked out and got into the exit door when it popped up.

Level 56

Password: APCB

At the blue explosive tiles surrounded by ice tiles, hit the tiles in the corners, then back off in the opposite direction. This will help get rid of them all. Also, one of the enemies will be making tiles. You'll want to take care of that while also using the teleport tile to save the left end of the level for last. Speaking of the teleport tile, hit the blue explosive tiles near the teleporter tile on the right end of the level carefully, as you can keep yourself from reaching some blue tiles if you're not careful. Thankfully, one of the enemies is set up to make this less of an issue.

Level 57

Password: JPLD

It's another field full of ice tiles. Thankfully, it's pretty easy to get from one tile to another, and every tile you hit clears the screen of all enemies temporarily. This level isn't too bad.

PrinceWatercress plays Slider (Game Gear) - Part 3 of 8

In this video, we complete sixteen levels, take care of a cable company scammer, and somehow miss an extra life.

First | Previous | Next | End

Level 30

Password: ACEG

You'll be teleporting between two small areas. Get all the tiles quickly, and watch out for the enemies that are moving around. The enemies here will also turn the pink tiles back to blue, but as long as you're keeping an eye on things, you can beat this level quickly.

Level 31

Password: JCNI

This one is fairly straightforward. Save the lower-left corner for last.

Level 32

Password: ALEP

Another straightfoward level. As always, watch it with the ice tiles and the enemy spawners. Get back when you hit the blue explosion tile.

Level 33

Password: JLNB

For best results, walk on all the cracked tiles as a series instead of hitting each one invididually and backing off; the level is set up so you can easily do the former. 

Level 34

Password: ACGI

Zig-zag across the cracked tiles so you can take care of all the tiles efficiently. Get back when you hit the blue explosion tiles.

Level 35

Password: JCPK

This is another level where it's easy to get around as long as you're careful. I like saving the lone blue tile in the lower-right corner past the ice tiles for last.

Level 36

Password: ALGB

The enemy spawners make things more taxing than anything else in this level does, especially when so many blue tiles are around them. The sooner you take care of the tiles around the teleporter pads, the better, although you can make a case for saving those areas for last. This can be more easily said for the conveyor belt tiles around the perimeter, though.

Level 37

Password: JLPD

This one can be a little tricky. You may be tempted to leave the cracked tiles for last, but it's better if you leave the blue explosion tile in the lower-right corner for last, as it's tough to get away once you blow up all the nearby tiles.

Level 38

Password: CCEI

The ice tiles around the level aren't hard to deal with, thankfully. Don't forget to use the teleporter pads, as it's easy to miss the three tiles that are blocked off.

Level 39

Password: LCNK

You've got another linear level with narrow passages, so watch yourself near the enemy spawners, as usual. Make sure you explore the level before you go across the conveyor belt tiles, as it is a slight pain to go back for stuff after doing that.

Level 40

Password: AEAE

Well, at least this level is easier. Just make sure you hit all the tiles before going across the cracked tile to the teleported pad.

Level 41

Password: JEJG

Use the teleporter pads to deal with the blue explosion tiles. You'll make this a lot easier near the end.

Level 42

Password: ANAN

If you can get to a green door when it pops up, take it. You'll be dealing with some of the indestructible fireball enemies around here, and getting around them can be a bit dicey.

Level 43

Password: JNJP

That'll show those Spectrum scammers. Anyway...

Another pretty linear level, all things considered. Back off once you hit the blue explosion tiles, and mind the enemies and the spawners when tiles are disappearing from said explosion tiles.

Level 44

Password: AECG

I take care of all the regular tiles first. After that, it's on to the conveyor belt tile nest near the teleporter pad on the left side of the level. I hit all those, take the teleporter, walk across the cracked tiles, slide across the ice tile, and get the rest of the conveyor belt tiles that are left.

Level 45

Password: JELI

I take care of the regular blue tiles near the start first, then walk the perimeter of the level, which consists of the conveyor belt tiles. From there, I hit the cracked tiles last before getting whatever's left. That's important, as the fireball enemies can turn walls and pits into tiles, and you'll need to watch out for that.

PrinceWatercress plays Slider (Game Gear) - Part 2 of 8

Now that we've gotten this game started, let's go through another fourteen levels, shall we?

First | Next | End

Level 16

Password: ALCN

Don't forget: you'll only slide into an ice tile in the direction you walk into it from, so if you're walking towards the pit, you're going into the pit. Likewise, if you walk towards a wall, you're going into the wall. Best piece of advice I can give for this one other than watching where you're going. If you need to, pause and look around before you move again.

Level 17

Password: JLLP

For this level, you'll want to be careful with the enemy spawners and the special tiles as you go through the more narrow paths of this level.

Level 18

Password: CCAE

Once again, you have a few narrow areas to go through as well as some special tiles that will make the area a little difficult, but at the same time, there's nothing that will lock you out of progress if you do something you did not intend to by mistake.

Level 19

Password: LCJG

Be careful when on conveyor belt tiles near pits. You don't want to accidentally fly right into the bottomless pits while you're trying to avoid them. Not surprisingly, this will be a problem in later levels.

Level 20

Password: AAEE

You'll have to rely on the enemies to make more tiles as you go back and forth to turn the entire floor pink. If you can get the Laser Gun power-up that lets you shoot through the walls, get it. Also, use the teleporter pads; they will definitely help you save time if you can't get any more hourglasses for extra time beyond the 70 seconds that the game gives you here.

Level 21

Password: JANG

Yet another linear stage. Be careful near the enemy spawners as always, and be careful with the conveyor belt tiles.

Level 22

Password: AJEN

Save the cracked tiles in the middle for last. Also, get a multi-way shot that travels in the cardinal directions in any way, if you can. It will help against the enemies here.

Level 23

Password: JJNP

The more quickly you can get through this level, the better...especially when one of the fireball enemies cannot be destroyed and may make it harder to clear the stage in the final seconds. Oof.

Level 24

Password: AAGG

You have narrow paths near bottomless pits. If you have the Laser Gun, try not to lose a life and lose the gun with it; you're going to need it to give yourself some breathing room. Otherwise, watch where you're going and play conservatively, especially

For the ice tile field, once you're teleported there, go up, left, down, right, up, left, down. You'll clear the last five tiles in that area in seconds.

Level 25

Password: JAPI

One of the Menaces will turn pink tiles back to blue, and it will be in one of the enemy spawners near the middle. As long as you're quick, he won't be much of an issue.

Level 26

Password: AJGP

There are two conveyor belt tiles pointing downwards towards a pit, and you have to slide across ice tiles in order to get to them. Once you're there, you'll be alternating between up and forward just quickly enough to not get dragged into one pit while not accidentally falling into the other on the opposite side. Get used to seeing this more and more throughout the game. Also, save the lower-left corner for last.

Level 27

Password: JJPB

Don't forget that you'll have to use the teleporter pad here just to turn one tile pink. Other than, the level isn't too difficult. Just watch out near the pits and the enemy spawners.

Level 28

Password: CAEG

Those Tentacles can snipe you if you're not careful. There's a lot of ice tiles here, so pause and think before moving if you need to. Just watch out for the monster in the lower-right corner. You may want to go through the level in a counter-clockwise pattern first, then save the teleporter pad area on the far left for last.

Level 29

Password: LANI

There are a ton of blue explosion tiles near the teleporter tiles. You may want to take care of those areas first. If you need to, get to a teleporter pad and teleport to the other side, work on some of the tiles there, then teleport back and finish the job on the first side. As for the rest of the level, watch where you're going on both the ice and cracked tiles, and be careful near the enemy spawners, as there is a lone blue tile to step on near one of them.
