PrinceWatercress plays Donald Duck in Deep Duck Trouble (SMS) - Part 2 of 6

It's time to play another level of this pleasant little game, and this time, we're going through a volcano.

First | Next | End

The Volcano

The jewel made of fire will light the way.

Scene 1: Volcano 1

The bats will simply fly forward.

The moles will pop out of the floor and throw rocks at you, but you can jump on the rocks.

The crickets will jump back and forth.

The craters will shoot out lava, which will push a rock upwards to use as a platform.

In the second section, the bats will keep reappearing from certain spots and fly towards you as you make your way down. If you defeat a bat, it doesn't come back.

When the screen shakes, watch out for rocks from above. Be ready to hide under the nearby platforms where rocks can't reach you. 

The boulders moving back and forth in the spike pits allow you to get over the pits. Thankfully, you can stand on them, and Donald will do the rest. It's up to you to hold Left or Right and then jump off when necessary.

Scene 2: Volcano 2

The boulders will now be in lava. At least the lava isn't instant death.

Doors in the wall will lead you to new areas.

The platforms above the volcanic cones will be knocked upwards by the lava coming out of the cones. 

The flames move in a sine wave pattern. Some flames will come out of the lava and slowly move straight up.

There are also narrow platforms that sink in and out of the lava. Time your movements so that you get on them when they are coming up, and get to the next one.

The spiders swing back and forth like a pendulum when you jump on them once. Another jump on the head will defeat them.

You'll eventually enter a vertical auto-scrolling section where the lava rises from the bottom...and you can't afford to slow down here. Some platforms will rise with the lava, but will eventually be gotten rid of when they hit a ceiling. The treasure chest here contains a chicken, but it's more of a speed trap than anything else. I don't even bother getting it because of that. 

When you reach the rock at the end, you'll be running across the volcano. Be ready to jump over boulders that come at you from both sides of the screen, and should you fall into the lava pit, it will not instantly kill you. When you reach the end, a rock will hit a wall, revealing the Ruby of Fire, giving you one more treasure and ending the level.
