After the four stages are done, there's just one more place to go. It's a little bit of a doozy compared to the rest of the game, but once you've beaten it, you've beaten the game.
The Shrine
The correct path shall be one of one hundred.
Scene 1: Shrine 1
The first section has you jumping over water pits as piranhas jump in and out. You'll also start seeing a thing that will recur every now and then: expansive spike pits where you have to kick an iron block into it and then jump on it when it returns to travel over the pit.
The purple crabs come down from the waterfall endlessly.
In the second section, you'll have to kick a block into a crack in a low ceiling to get some water to leak out, which in turn will slowly push you to the right when you stand on it. Be ready to duck to avoid spikes.
In the third section, hit the chest at the far right, then keep running up the slopes and hitting each chest, grabbing chili peppers as you go.
In the fourth section, you'll see jars that shoot out crabs endlessly as long as you keep defeating them. The crabs only leap out to the left, though.
In the fifth section, you'll be going down slopes while trying not to fall into spikes. The platforms are safe zones, but only before they fall down under your weight. If you reach solid, even ground, however, spikes will start coming out from the left. You'll want to avoid those, too.
Use the chili pepper in the chest at the end of the sixth section to get through the wall of blocks.
Scene 2: Shrine 2
The ghosts move and back and forth, and stop to take a humanoid form. You can jump on them while in humanoid form to get past them.
Be careful on the platforms that move on the track on the background wall. If you see any statue heads in the wall, be ready to jump over their fireballs when you're lined up with them.
If you see a circle with an arrow on a background track, you can kick a block into it to change its direction, keeping the platform from hurling you into impending doom.
The blocks that look like a bridge inside the background wall go in and out. When they are bright, that means they are currently jutting out of the wall and you can stand on them. Just be ready to move before they recess back into the wall.
The statues with the spear will jab at you if you get too close.
The torches that move up and down are platforms, but you can only stand on them when the fire is out. When the fire is out, however, the room goes dark, so you'd better know where to land before the flame comes back up.
The weights that slowly move up and then quickly drop back down can be used as platforms.
The ghosts in the third section will fly towards you, but you can jump on their heads to get rid of them. Also in the third section, you'll have to time your movements so that you can travel across a pit while two platforms are moving on background tracks at the same time.
The bridge at the end of the third section takes you to the fourth section when it disappears as you stand on it, sending you down a pit.
In the fourth section, you'll have to ride a log. The ancient tablets of the duck pointing will tell you whether to go down a pit or continue to take the high path in this auto-scrolling section. If you take the wrong path, you won't be reaching the end of this world.
The Statue
To reach the statue, you must pass the final trial.
Scene 1: Statue
The floating heads shoot fireballs at you and fly forward in a sine-wave pattern. Jump over the last two and avoid their fireballs.
You'll then face the final boss: the goddess of the temple. She will fly around, and when she fires a laser at the ground, the laser will produce a block. Avoid the debris that is produced from the laser, and kick the block into the goddess.
Every once in a while, the goddess will shoot four small fireballs downwards; avoid those. She has a shorter pause before the four-way shot compared to the laser shot.
After enough hits, the goddess will float upwards, then start teleporting all over the room. She has a five-way shot as well as a spiral shot that will fly towards her outstretched hands. There are three places where she can stand - the sides and the center - and she will do the spiral balls at the sides while shooting the five-way shot at the center.
At this rate, you won't get any more blocks, so wait for her to teleport to one of the sides and wait for the spiral balls to diminish. If you can time it right, you'll be right above her head as soon as the balls start to disappear, and you'll be able to hit her.
When you beat the goddess, Donald will put the necklace back on the goddess statue, then a crown will appear on its head. Donald takes the crown and heads home with it, then puts it on only to become a balloon himself. Scrooge, Huey, Dewey and Louie head back to the island to get Donald un-cursed while Donald is carried around on a string. The game then ends.
