PrinceWatercress plays Garfield: Caught In The Act (GEN/MD) - Part 5 of 6


In this entry, we take on the final regular level on the game.


The Curse of Cleofatra


The ammo here is gold ankhs.

Cracked floors will break if you stand on them.

Duck in front of the Arlene statues so the wings do not hit you, then jump on the wings and get to where you need to go.

Hitting torches will activate things. The human statues have blocks that you can jump on and bounce off of.

Buttons on the floor will trigger traps such as spears that come out of the ceilings and floor as well as crusher traps.

The sand that spouts out of the walls act as platforms, but you will slide off if you stand on them for too long.

The blocks with the cat head and the two hands can be pushed, but a few of them have to be moved another way. The stone platforms that swing around will open doors, and you'll have to jump off and land on them at certain points in order to make them get a full rotation. From here, you'll need to keep moving the platform to raise the door up further so you can continue on. 

There are some hidden walls, and you can find some areas where you will have to deal with things such as a platform that slowly rises up to make it easier to get to another area or a place where you have to avoid raining spears.

Enemies here include mouse mummies as well as scarab beetles that fly around. 

The boss here is a giant pharaoh statue with Jon's face. Light the torches at the side to produce some hands you can ride up, then hit the torch at the top to open up another hand platform. Ride it up and hit a torch to open up the Odie statue's mouth, then hit the torch inside to extend the tongue. From here, you'll need to hit the eye on the Odie statue to shoot a laser at the blue jewel in the center. You'll need to do this with both sides, and you'll have to keep beating up the scarab beetles that are flying around as you do this. If you need health, there will be some near both of the torches at the bottom, as well as near the Odie statues' eyes.

After destroying both Odie statues, the pharaoh statue will lower. Jump up and hit the eyes with your melee weapon while avoiding the scarab beetles. Once the eyes are broken, you'll had to deal with the cobra head on the top of the statue. The blasts sweep back and forth, and knowing that makes it a little easier to avoid the blasts as you keep jumping up and hitting the cobra head. After enough hits - and smart use of the health pick-ups in this room, should you need them - you'll beat this boss.

To get to the last portal, you'll need to make a trek downwards, to the right, up some platforms and over a laser lights and some electric currents. This will lead to the final battle with Glitch.
