We complete the remainder of the regular stages before taking on the House of Ruth!
All maps by Loquo.
Africa (continued)
Go left, duck down and hit the wall for another Blue Sphere if you need to extend your health even more.
From there, keep heading up. Drop down at the pit in the upper level and attack the wall to the left to get an S Drink. Go down the stairs and then go down one level. Repeat what you did to get to the boss. When you reach the stairs going up and to the right, go up them to fight the Duke. Strike the left edge of the bricks near the door to enter the Duke's room.
Near the entrance, strike the wall to your right to get a G Drink. Let loose on the Duke, then use the white orb on him if your invincibility runs out. He should be easy to defeat before the G Drink wears off, as he stands around when he attacks you.
Germany
Leap to the right and jump into the small pit near the end. Go two screens down. You'll find the scroll near the door. "Between Black and White, there is no Yellow." Hit the switch and enter the nearby door.
The armored guys with the shields have pretty good reaches with their pikes.
Drop down three screens. There is an S Drink in the wall near the door on the first one you drop to. Jump over the gap to the stairs to the left. Go up the stairs, then drop down the pit to the left. Hit the switch to the left of the room with Cutrus and enter the door that opens. You'll meet the Duke.
Along the way, you'll also meet the armored guys with the hand axes, who have a much shorter reach than the pike guys.
There is a Z drink behind the center of the stairs that lead to the Duke. When the Duke shows up, take it and do as much damage to him as you possibly can. You also want to destroy his shurikens as quickly as possible during your attempts at getting close to him.
Arabia
This level is mercifully more linear in design. At least you're not doing mazes anymore.
The guys with the crossbows can be pretty annoying. Attack their arrows as your approac them.
The scroll is hidden inside the edge of a ledge, which you can uncover with Cutrus. "Black is on the far right."
Stun the Duke here with the white orb, then keep whacking him until he strikes. You'll want to back away and strike repeatedly a couple of times before using the orb on him again. He'll throw knives and hit you every third strike, but he's still fall before Orin does.
Congratulations! You've completed all the regular stages! Now it's time for the House of Ruth!
