PrinceWatercress plays Donald Duck no Mahou no Boushi - Part 4 of 6


If we can get our hands on a ship, it's time to face the Dark King's four bosses.


From here, you can pick the next four levels in any order you want. I pick the order the game gives me.

Snow Area


In this level, you'll need to race a rabbit to the end of a race track.

To run up the walls, just run down the slopes. When you run down the slopes, you'll get more speed and momentum. Keep holding Y and Forward and you'll run up the wall. 

Be ready to jump the gaps after the first wall you have to run up; if you miss, you'll have to go back to try the jumps again, and it's possible to lose the race and a life here just because of this one part.

From here, keep holding Y and Right. You may get bounced into the air by hidden springs, but if you keep going, you can get through this.

Cliff Area

For the first section: Jump onto the first brown cork you see on the right to get launched up, then take the leaf platforms moving up and down to your left to the left and get on the red cork. You'll be rocketed to two extra lives; grab them! From here, head to the right and take the next cork.

For the second section: Keep heading to the right at first. Take the wind hole at the lower-right corner of this area, then keep going right until you reach a red cork. Jump on it, then get the full health. Go further to the right and stand on the left platform to activate the next cork, then jump on the next cork.

For the third section: Keep heading left and take the leaf platforms that move up and down along the way. Take the brown cork after the branch you have to land on, then keep making your way up. The red cork will take you to the boss.

Along the way, there are flying vultures that take two hits to defeat. They can divebomb you if you're not careful.

The boss is a lion with a hammer. Whenever he drops the hammer, he will run to the hammer to get it back. Take this opportunity to jump on his head as much as possible. When you jump on him, he will be stunned for a little while, and you'll need to wait for the boss to get un-stunned before you can jump on him again. If you can get the timing down, you can beat the boss before he can pick up his hammer once.

If the boss strikes the ground with his hammer, corks will fly up from the cliffs in the background and rain down on you. Hold the A button to hide in the king's hat and avoid taking damage from the corks. Sadly, you can't move while hiding under the hat, but you don't really need to with how attacks from bosses in this game work. When the boss hits the ground with the hammer, one of the columns under the ground will break, and if they all break, the platform will fall and you'll lose a life.
