In this entry, we complete Michi's game of hide and seek and finally take on Michi himself.
Michi's Basement (Night)
There is a springboard you can jump to get to the chest from earlier.
To get Enemy Card #32, Megnut, you'll need to jump on top of a vase that can barely be seen in the background, then jump to the right. To get to the blue chest, you'll need to jump onto the top of the picture frame that can barely be seen, then go right and open the chest for a Pet Sprite. You can then break the block nearby to get out.
When you're at the stool in front of the television set, press Up to enter it.
In this area, you'll be in an 8-bit graveyard area. You can only perform a single jump and the normal attack; you can't use any of your abilities while here.
The ghosts with the haloes will follow you around, and you cannot hurt them. They disappear eventually, however.
To get the first big coin, you'll have to take a short hop over the pit to get it. To get the second big coin, you'll need to jump up to the upper level, destroy the brown crates (which are destructible, unlike the blue ones) and jump your way to the left to get it. The platform before the coin will fall, as will all the mid-air platforms here.
Just keep jumping from platform to platform to get past the spiders at the end of the first section.
The second section is a vertical section that has you jumping across gaps in stairs and jumping off springboards. The third big coin is in plain sight; just watch out for the ghosts.
The mini-boss here is the Acks Bros. Stay close to them, but not too close, and keep hitting them so you can avoid their axes, which are only thrown at high angles. Focus on one, then take out the other. Once you beat this stage, you'll rescue one of your kids and get a sheep once you're out of the TV.
Michi's Greenhouse (Day)
The water bubbles are back, and you'll really have to use them. Press the D-Pad in the direction of where the nearby pipe is going to get moving.
The seed ball enemies will spit seeds at you if you are near them for too long. You can jump off them, but you can't defeat them. The potted plants act as platforms.
If you're outside of a glassed area, you will have an air meter above your head. You'll need to get to another area with glass walls or jump into a water bubble to refill on air.
The white toadstools just bump you around.
The first big coin is at the end of a pipe. Keep going right, then jump up the plants and into the bubble, then press Up. You'll get the coin on the other side.
The enemy card is right after the first big coin. You'll have to jump across moving platforms and on potted plants and then float to the left without getting hit by a seed to get Enemy Card #34: Geme.
Use the ground pound to get rid of the red slimes.
To get the second big coin, you'll need to rocket up to a platform, then jump to the left and go through the pipe.
You'll be able to get the third big coin when you jump left at the start of the water bubbles that are in mid-air after the second checkpoint.
The red chest is on a lead platform you can easily float to near the end. Inside is Track 16. At the end, you'll rescue the last kid.
Michi's Greenhouse (Night)
This round is an enemy gauntlet.
The bat enemies are easy enough to deal with. If you go left and hit the well-hidden crate in the left wall, you'll get the first big coin.
Use the ground pound to get rid of the skeleton enemies, then jump up near the spider to get it to come down you can defeat it.
Use the ground pound to take out the small slimes. The second big coin is in plain sight.
Use the ground pount to take out the slingshot enemies, then take out the spider.
You'll need to use the Bop Bros. Beard Oil to jump off the big blue guy to get the enemy card. This is Enemy Card #35: Bubo. You can then kill him with a ground pound to the head.
After the checkpoint and the health refill, use the ground pound to take out all the enemies and avoid the spikes that come down as you use it. The third big coin is behind the mole enemy in the upper-left corner.
If you use the ground pound on the left side of the center platform, you can take down all the big slime enemies. You can then use the ground pound again to take out all the small slimes.
Attack near the sand dunes to take out the crabs, then use the ground pound underneath the flying enemy to get rid of it.
Get to the middle, jump straight up and use the ground pound to take out the charging skeleton enemy while avoiding the falling rocks.
You'll need to bounce off the big blue guy's head to get to the platforms above and then glide to the blue chest, which contains Michi's Dairy. Take out the enemies here with the ground pound, then enter the next room, destroy the dummy for coins, then get the sheep.
Michi's Manor (Night)
Now that you've rescued all three kids, it's time to head back to where you met Michi. Michi will sic Branikin - a large wooden replica of Branson - on you, and you'll have to defeat Branikin to get Ray back as well as all your extra health.
The boss has a few attacks, and the image of the child that comes out of Branikin's mouth dictates which one is thrown out. You'll need to hit the replica of the kid while avoiding the attacks.
There is one that has sandbags falling from left to right. There is another with a robot that will drop down and run at you, which you can easily avoid. There is a third that throws three bowling pins into the air up at an angle which then drop down, and you'll also have to avoid those. If you're fast (and maybe have at least one Brawn Vitamin), you can take out Branikin quickly.
After you defeat Branikin, Michi will apologize and let Ray go, as he was afraid that you and the kids came in with the intent to trash the place like everyone else dowes.. You'll also get an extra hit point and Enemy Card #33 - Branikin. Enter the blue portal to meet the kids and get the fourth orb of the game.
If you've gotten 100% of everything at this point, you'll get Bristly Battler, the fourth and final rank of the game.
