Tales of North Pole


Chapter 1


As soon as you start the level, Pokey will leave due to the cold.

The lollipop at the start of the level will teach you a new move: the roll attack. While in ball form, you can press L or R to perform a ball charge. L charges to the left, while R charges to the right, and if you are moving when you press either of the shoulder buttons, you'll charge even further. The charge not only speeds you up briefly, but lets you smash through the enemy in front of you.

The brown Astrobot is on wheels and can slide down slopes. The yellow Astrobots hover, and they sometimes move around in patterns in mid-air.

There are plenty of moving platforms in this level, so pay attention to where you are you going when on one.

The big ice cream is worth ten ice cream cones.

When in icy cave areas, watch out for icicles. They will shake and fall if you get in front of them, and they hurt regardless of whether they are falling or not if you run into them.

Chapter 2


At the start of the chapter, you'll find another lollipop. This will give you the ability to double jump by pressing A in mid-air. Instead of being a traditional double jump, pressing and holding A in mid-air allows Gumby to turn his feet into a propellor and hover.

The purple Astrobots bounce up and down with the springs on the bottom of their bodies. You'll need to jump from one to another and then double jump to get a big ice cream cone.

Chapter 3


When you find Prickle, you'll find out that he is being held against his will by an abominable snowman. To beat the abominable snowman, take the platform upwards, then head right and jump into the cannon to shoot yourself into the abominable snowman. All the while, you'll want to watch out for icicles as you make your way to the cannon, as they will show up in droves. After three hits, the abominable snowman will be defeated. Up next is Transylvania Tales on the second floor...
