Cauchemar89 plays Kiwi Kraze aka New Zealand Story - Part 2 of 3


At this point, the level design gets waaaaaaay out there...

World 3: Waitomo Caves


World 3-1


The waterfalls cause you to fall down, so don't even think about entering those, since you can't climb up them.

The blue joystick makes it so that you can control the little clouds you can ride on solely with the Control Pad, so if an enemy drops one, go get it!

Thankfully, this stage isn't very long at all.

World 3-2


The stage begins with a climb upwards followed by a long drop where you have to find the right path. Thankfully, if you make a wrong turn, the enemies on clouds will spawn, so you'll be able to find your way back.

You've seen the frogs before, but guess what? They can shoot bullets everywhere when in close. So watch out.

World 3-3


New enemy here: penguins that look strangely like Kiwis that ride on green porcelain swans and throw pills at us. Wow, I thought the Green Underwater Tentacle Monster was wacky enough. Check that out.

Anyway, the green swans act like the flying sheep heads (thankfully). When you drop to the bottom, you'll deal with cats on flying red nuclear warheads (to be honest, I don't even know what those red things you can hijack from them are). Unlike the sheep heads and green swans, it takes forever to ascend on one of these things, so you'll have to be fast to get through the level.

That's it, I want what Taito was smoking.

World 3-4


After that short, easy maze, you'll fight some red babushka doll thing.

Avoid the bullets she shoots at you and keep firing at her. She sends the bullets out in five, which makes this slightly harder than it should be.

World 4: Cookstrait


World 4-1


Oh, wow, it looks really good around here!

You've seen the flaming guys before, but they're really going to come into play when it comes to your demise around here. These guys will clone themselves before disappearing, and it basically becomes a moving line of flaming guys. Shoot them down to stop the madness.

Also, the cats throw axes at you. What the fuck.

World 4-2


This underwater maze can be quite nasty if you're not careful.

The bubbles that come out of the underwater craters push you underneath the surface, and they can make it really difficult to get some air.

Also, you have to do this whole level in one shot, since this level doesn't let you continue where you last died.

World 4-3


It can be very confusing getting around at the beginning of the stage, but as soon as you know where to go, this level is easy.

World 4-4


Jesus Christ, this level has so many spikes it's not even funny. You'll have to do some pretty deft maneuvering to get through this stage.

Believe it or not, there are two sections. Make your way to the upper-right hand corner of the level and you'll enter a doorway. Go in and you'll be able to make your way to a pirate ship! How about that?

Believe it or not, there's no boss. The pirate ship is the boss itself. Thankfully, you can walk on the side of the spikes, but once again you'll have to carefully make your way to the trapped Kiwi if you want to finish this.
