PrinceWatercress plays Dora the Explorer: Super Spies - Part 3 of 6

We get a really useful gadget at the beginning of this area, and it will allow us to do some major backtracking. We'll also find another gadget that allows for a little more backtracking, too. We also have more enemies to deal with than before.

First | Previous | Next | End

Benny's Barn 1

As soon as you start the level, you'll get the Rocket Sneakers. The Rocket Sneakers will allow you to briefly float upwards and reach items and platforms that Dora cannot reach by jumping, and you can hold Left or Right to move to the side a little bit on the way up to get to platforms. With the Rocket Sneakers, you can go back to the Rainforest stages and get to the platforms and blue crystals you could not reach in Rainforest 1, the lone blue crystal you could not jump to in Rainforest 2, and the platforms you could not reach in Rainforest 3 that lead to the Magnetic Card that you can use to open the door keeping you from some blue crystals near the end.

Despite getting the Rocket Sneakers in the cutscene, you need not enter the level and go through the opening clip show to get the Sneakers; all you have to do is unlock the level and you'll automatically get them. From there, you can immediately backtrack.

There are a couple of enemies at the start of the game. The bugs will move back and forth and you'll have to jump over them. The spiders will move up and down; I usually crawl under them. The snakes will be sleeping, and you will wake them up if you walk up to them. If you crawl past them, however, they'll stay asleep. The birds will dive bomb you if you walk around near them, but if you crawl around them, they won't bother you.

You can get past the big bag of feed with the infrared goggles.

The briefcase at the beginning of the level contains the Bubble Blower, which you will have to enter the level to get. The Bubble Blower allows you to break log and rock walls that block your path. With this in hand, you can break the rock wall in Flowery Garden 2 to get the last crystal you couldn't get.

There is another briefcase shortly after that which you can find and open to get the magnetic card for the door near the end.

This is the first level where you can get all 30 blue crystals right away.

Benny's Barn 2

You'll need to come back to use another gadget near the start and get three blue crystals.

If you see a big bag of feed anywhere, use the infrared goggles. It may be hiding a blue crystal. Keep that in mind as you explore the levels.

The magnetic card will be to the left of the platform near the haystacks with the spider hanging below it. You'll want to get it to get some of the blue crystals.

Benny's Barn 3

The magnetic card will be at the roof of the barn at the start. Move to the left past the bag of feed with the infrared goggles to get to it.

Be careful on the rooftops, as you can get divebombed by the birds. You'll have to do a bit of exploration 

To get to the platform below the exit with the blue crystal, you'll have to jump from the edge of a roof to the right. It is the only way to reach this platform.

There is a Boots area near the magnetic card reader where you can find some gems. Just watch out for the bugs.
