72.0. "GOONIES II" by CINEMX::KIPNES () Thu Mar 03 1988 21:23


	 Does anyone out there have GOONIES II?  I just got the game;
	 it seems interesting, but a little confusing... like 'how do
	 I get anywhere important'?

	 I seem to be making slight progress every time I play, anyone
	 have any comments?

    Re .0:
    
    My approach is to make a complete map, room by room (use the sub-screen
    frequently to tell what room you are in, since they are not explicitly
    divided in the regular screen).  You have to record all the connections
    between the front and back sides.  Then I just keep exploring.  Do it
    methodically; make a record of each door that you come to and explore
    them all in turn.
    
    I expect there will be points where you will not be able to procede and
    will need to come back when you have gotten certain equipment.
    
    If all else fails, get the Official Nintendo Player's Guide; it has a
    complete map as well as instructions for a lot of the game.

72.4A little easy?RSTS32::FLAHERTYWe're here to pump you up!Fri Mar 25 1988 18:3713
    
    	As for Goonies II, My opinion is...
    
    		It's a good game, but an easy game. Map everything?
    		I wouldn't go that far. It took me two days two win,
    		and that was too quick. I still play it though, Infact
    		I just found the Candle a week ago. And know I think 
    		thats everything. I wouldn't buy this game, I'd see
    		if I could borrow it from sombody for say a week.

72.5I"M GOING CRAZY!PARROT::FORTENSun May 29 1988 16:4214
    HELLLLLP!!!!!!
    
    I just got this Game a week ago (before I saw this note) and I still
    can't figure it out. I can only get to the rooms past the bridge
    then it's a dead end. Am I missing something?
    
    I have the coat, glasses, hammer, 6 keys, slingshot, boomerang,
    yo-yo, bombs and molotovs. I keep losing the boomerang on the bridge
    is this needed to get further in the game?
    
    Any help would really be appreciated,
    Thanxs in advance,
    
    Scott
72.6Keep it up.ATSE::FLAHERTYIs soup good food?Mon May 30 1988 11:577
    
    	Have you tried using your glasses on all of the doors? Or your
    hammer? or even your hand? It is obviously not a dead end, keep
    trying!!!
    
    			      The boomerang is good, but not needed...
    						Pat..
72.8I did it!!PARROT::FORTENSat Jun 04 1988 18:4410
    Thanks again Pat. 
    
                    I had a tough time trying to select the glasses
    until I accidentally pressed the right button. For those who just
    got this game to select a magic implement you have to select the
    Tool option (adventure scene?) then press B button until the right
    tool comes up. It does'nt say this in the book, so I thought I'd
    stick it in here.

    	I found the glasses but can not get them to work. I have selected
    them in many rooms with and without doors. What will they do for
    me? I have rescued 2 of the goonies and seem to have reached an
    impasse. Also how do I go in down or up holes in those rooms with
    the doors??? Thanks in advance for some help.

72.11Try This....PARROT::FORTENSun Jun 19 1988 03:2557
    re .9: I haven't played for a while but I think the glasses are
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    in one of the rooms in the red cavern. Thats the one across the
    bridge.
    
    re .10
          The glasses only work in certain rooms. 
    
    <Possible spoiler?>
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    They usually work in a dark room. When you use the glasses you'll
    hear a tune, which means you found something. Go forward or use
    a key and take whatever is in there. As far as the holes in the
    ceiling are concerned; you can't go there until you get the ladder
    or swimsuit (which you need the glasses for).
    
    hope this will help you out.

72.12BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBATSE::FLAHERTYI still don&#039;t get it.Mon Jun 20 1988 16:4012
    
    	To use the: Glasses, Transiver, Candle, or ladder:
    
    		Press the IMplements? and then press the B button to
    		a listing. 
    
    		This isn't a hard game, but if anyone needs help, ask.

72.13Hello... anybody hereVCSESU::LANERoger Rabbit is a loony &#039;toonWed Feb 01 1989 14:0518
    
    	It's been a while sonce anyone replied in here but I figure I can
    ask anyway. Is anyone currently playing or recently played Goonies II?
    I started playing (again, after a 6 mos. break) and now I am stuck. I
    need <possible spoiler>
    
    
    
    
    	I need the ladder. I have found just about everything else but I
    can't locate that stupid ladder. I have saved 3 kids and I know where
    the 4th and 5th are but I need the stupid ladder to go farther. If any
    of you can remember where (or more importantly HOW) you found the
    ladder I would be happy. Thanks in advance.

72.14ladder where are you?TYFYS::MOLLERHalloween the 13th on Elm Street #7Tue Feb 14 1989 22:449
    Yes, I am currently playing Goonies II - and I can't get to the lader
    either.  Although I have the Nintendo Players Guide which has maps and

   other good stuff in it - I know where the ladder is but once under water
   I lose my bearings as to which room I am in and how to get to the room
   where the ladder is - any help or ideas or spoilers would be
   appreciated-

72.15I got it!!!VCSESU::LANEJak+Jil wnt up the hill ea. w/ $1.25...Wed Feb 15 1989 09:2814
    
    
    	I finally found the ladder the other night and from there the rest
    of the game was finished in about 2-3 hours of play. I'll give you a
    little hint. Minor possible spoiler follows
    
    
    
    	You need to hit a blank wall with your bare hand and the ladder
    will appear. You are very close to it if you are under water

72.16where now and how?TYFYS::MOLLERHalloween the 13th on Elm Street #7Mon Feb 20 1989 14:3610
    I too got the ladder but now I'm stuck - I don't know where to go -
    according to the Nintendo Players Guide Map of Goonies II there's a
    room that I should be able to warp to another room and I think that is
    probably where Annie (the mermaid) is or close to it - what do I do
    next?

    Thanks

    Debbie
    
72.17did you get 'em all?VCSESU::LANEJak+Jil wnt up the hill ea. w/ $1.25...Mon Feb 20 1989 15:3915
    
    	Possible spoilers...
    
    
    
    
    	Have you saved all the goonies?? If you haven't saved all 6 then
    don't even think about Annie. Once you have saved all 6 goonies you
    need the jumping shoes. There is a door that you can only get to with
    the jumping shoes. If you need more help ask away and I will try to
    help.

72.18Still stuck ---TYFYS::MOLLERHalloween the 13th on Elm Street #7Tue Feb 21 1989 10:275
    Yep, I saved all 6 goonies - and I have the jumping shoes.  And I don't
    know what to do next -

72.19Sorry, it should say upper left!VCSESU::LANEJak+Jil wnt up the hill ea. w/ $1.25...Tue Feb 21 1989 10:2915
    
    
    	SLight spoiler..
    
    
    
    
    		Go through the door you need the jumping shoes for. The
    warp room you are looking for is in there somewhere. I don't remember
    exactly but I believe that it is in the upper right corner of the map.
    I don't remember if it was front or back. Hope this helps.

72.20your help !LEVERS::ANDELLAThu Feb 23 1989 19:356
	No you do not need the boomerang to go on. When you go back
    you can get itAfter the bridge in the purple area either use the
    glasses or hammer in every room to find a secret room.
