| I've finished Adventures of Lolo. There are some nice puzzles, but I
would have liked more of them (What is it, five per floor for ten
floors?) and some harder ones. Some of the rooms do require quick
timing, but the game is mostly a thinking/strategy game.

277.3 | another Finish! | MAGIC1::BEAUDET | JUNK_YARD_DOG! DTN:297-6276 | Mon Jun 05 1989 09:20 | 17 |
| Yup,
finished it Friday night. I have recorded all the passwords as
I went along. Seems several floors had more rooms than others.
It did seem to be more of a strategy game than a "reflex" game.
It also seem to have different solutions for several rooms. I
was a little dissapointed in the ending - not actually able to
go "one on one" with the devil, as the computer did all the work.
The closeup could have been a little better graphically and watching
the kingdom come "back to life" was cute...
Don't know what the price of the game is new - shouldn't be more
than $35.00 though...good game to practice startegy and develop
patience.
Now back to ROBOWarrior!

Rented the game last night and am stuck on floor 9. I'mm in
the room with the four green sleep-when-you-touch-em creatures.
I worked on it for about an hour or so and gave up.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks ahead of time,

| Re .6:
Here are two hints, followed by directions.
Don't cross the monster's path.
You have two shots. Use one to give yourself another path.
Directions follow.
Push the rock left, but not all the way. Hide below it as necessary.
Get the bottom left heart.
Push the rock right all the way to the bridge, again hiding as needed.
Get the bottom right heart.
Push rock across bridge and up, but not all the way.
When the monster is away, get the top right heart.
Get below the rock. When the monster moves to the right, push
the rock all the way up to trap the monster on the right.
Go to the left, make a bridge across river.
Go to bottom, shoot bottom left monster, push its egg to the
right three squares or more, to give yourself access to
the chest from the left.
Go up, shoot the top left skull.
Get the last heart.
Run behind tree, let the skull you didn't shoot come up and start
moving around the tree.
Run the other way around the tree, go down, and get the chest.

for a different level. The stage your talking about, you
should have a power ladder. Just press The A button! The
other hint in my last reply is later in the game, but not
too much.

277.18 | I really liked this one | DUGGAN::WILLINGER | | Thu Jan 11 1990 18:41 | 23 |
| This is a really tricky one. We found it so satisfying to figure it
out, that I hesitate to just give it to you. Wouldn't want to ruin
your enjoyment ;^)
I'll give you a chance to figure it out in stages:
[hint]
You're obviously one item short for blocking in the moving pink guy.
You've used both chests, and the 2 green snakeys to block the Medusas.
Now if only you could get back one of the items you've used after you
take the heart.....
[stronger hint]
What happens to a monster after it's hit with 2 shots and blown away?
Do you have an extra shot?
[outright spoiler] When you need to block the Medusa in the lower
corner (either side), shoot the snakey once, move the egg quickly down
to block off the heart, grab the heart, step back and blast the egg
again before it changes back to snakey. Voil�, you have the heart, and
the snakey returns to the center zone to be used again. After blasting
the rock you should have one more shot to move him to block the pink
guy in the bottom rock zone as you waltz off with the unguarded
treasure.

How much of a spoiler do you want? It took me a LONG time to
figure this one out and then, as usual, it was obvious. By
saying you need one more shot, I assume that you're ending up in
the middle with everything blocked but no way to get back out to
get to the chest??? You may even be putting the bridge in the
right place but not at the right time....
Send mail if you want a spoiler.

|
Spoiler for floor 4 password HHKK Lolo II
The problem is how to block in the pink moving monster.
Push the green block over the bridge up against the rock.
Go back and get behind the green worm, shoot him once and ride over
then push the block 2 spaces to the right. Go back over the bridge and
wait for the green worm to reappear in it's original spot. Shoot it
again from the side and push it to the right above where you pushed the
block on the other side of the water then ride over so that you can
push the block to trap the pink moving monster. Watch your timing so
you don't get killed getting things in position.

277.31 | anyone still playing LOLO I ?? | CANYON::LEEDS | Scuba dooba doo | Mon Jun 11 1990 13:49 | 16 |
| My 6 yr old (and I) rented Lolo (the original) this past weekend.
Considering how little time we actually played, I think we did pretty
good. However, we got stuck at one screen on level 6 (password CRZD).
Does anyone still have this game and might you be willing to give us a
tip on how to get past this level ?? We might rent it again soon.
The problem with the screen seems to be that you need 3 "things" to
block shots with, but there are only 2 things. There is one of those
guys who goes to sleep when he touches you, but I can't find any way
to get him to go to sleep in a useful place.

277.34 | | DELREY::UCCI_SA | | Thu Jun 14 1990 13:31 | 19 |
| Re: -1
I don't think so. This screen has lots of one way arrows, 2 stationary
guys that shoot in all directions, and 2 pink guys that keep moving
back and forth. I always end up needing ONE EXTRA blocker to get to
the treasure chest. But due to the one-way arrows, I can't get an
extra blocker where I need it!! This screen doesNOT give you the
chance to change an arrow to a different direction.
I think you might be further along that I am. Could you check out the
password (HDKQ) and let me know if you solved it?
Maybe I'm further along than you.............if you give me your
password, I might be able to help.

| I took a look this weekend at floor 7 password HDKQ...
Push the green block next to Lolo up just a little this will allow you
to cross the arrow side ways. Go around the block and push it down to
block the Medusa at the bottom of the screen. Go back up and go right
and push one block up and one down to block in the Medusa's on the
right side. Come back out toward where you started and go down and
around push the block up one space that is next to the 2 up arrows.
You are now blocking in the Pink Moving Monster at the bottom of the
screen. Push the next closest block to the right to complete block in
the PMM. Watch out for the PMM moving back and forth at the top. Now
you move up and push 1 block to the right and up and over onto the
grass. This block will block the top PMM on the chest side. Move the
remaining block to block the PMM on the side. You now should have all
the hearts and a clear path to the chest.
I hope this is clear and you can follow it.

That's it! You had the right idea, but you need to follow it up.
The ALMA can be tricked into charging past you - on a straight line -
or will actually go up the wrong way if you're in the right position.
Keep practicing, but don't race it.

If you devide the 'circular' parts of the paths in half logically, then
wait until the alma is 180 degrees from you it will continue in the
same direction, allowing you to reverse and gain ground. It does take
some practice, but not much 'speed' in terms of reflexes.

block the Medusa, but it didn't seem to buy me anything. We're ready

277.58 | | SWAM1::UCCI_SA | | Fri Jun 29 1990 13:47 | 31 |
| Spoiler to follow on last room of LOLO I:
If I remember correctly, I turned the top pink guy on the right
side of the screen into and egg and QUICKLY pushed him to the
bottom of the screen to block the Medusa. The real trick is
running right down the middle (and I mean middle) of the pink
guys after you get the heart. Run as fast and you can. Then
you need to make a quick jag to get to the chest.
I'll recheck blocking the medusa over the weekend, but I think
the above is how I did it.
Good luck and on to Lolo II (now that's a killer!!!)

I did manage to block the Medusa (probably the same way you did), but
I didn't think it was possible to get thru between the rows of pink
guys... I guess I didn't think of running right down the middle... the
bridges you go across are offset from the middle... I'll try it again
tonight...

277.63 | Lolo-2 clue for Sandie 227.44 | GLDOA::PINTO | | Tue Jul 10 1990 12:39 | 19 |
| Just solved this one last night...
As all Lolo lovers know, shooting monsters with two bullets makes them
disappear. Eventually, they reappear in their original spot. Did you
ever wonder what would happen if Lolo "camped" on the original spot???!
On unrelated note, have you ever noticed you only needed to half-block
monsters to keep them from moving or shooting? One chest can block two
monsters up against a wall, rock, or tree! Same holds true for moved
monsters.
I love this game! Kids just don't have the patience to play it. It
requires wits instead of reflexes!!

I must be missing something...(Like my mind)
I'm playing Lolo I the password is DBYV (I think) level 7 somewhere?
It's the one with the four skulls, two medusa's and 4 ?... 3 heart
framers two grassy patch's.
Well I'm stuck I can't get to the treasure without getting killed,
I've played the game for over an hour and have tried every possible
way to get the treasure...well all but the right way!!
Any hints would be appreciated.
Thanks

| RE:.64 (DBYV)
Hint
You don't have to move a monster after he's been zapped/eggatized.
Spoiler
Grab the 2 heart framers on the sides. This will give you the power to
"eggatize" 4 times. Move up the central column and "eggatize" the first
set of pink monsters one at a time and move them to block the medusas.
From behind, "eggatize" each of the top two pink monsters and run up
the middle, grabbing the last heart framer and reaching the chest before
they come back to life.
Now, if I could only get through the ninth floor :-(

277.66 | Lolo II Castle...any info? | GLDOA::PINTO | | Thu Jul 12 1990 12:30 | 7 |
| Well, last night I made it to the top of the tower in Lolo II. Thought
I had finished it until a flying ship carried Lolo off to a Castle.
I'm currently working on maze 4 (I think, they are not numbered!) of the
Castle. Anybody know how many mazes there are in there?? Can't wait
to finish and try my hand at the Pro mazes!

| Answered my own question last night...I was on the last maze! Good
news for those who were disappointed in the ending of Lolo I, you get
to take on the big bad guy one-on-one in Lolo II! Although once you
defeat him, you get that ridiculous close up of Lolo and Lala again.
Took a look at the 4 Pro mazes as well. Obviously, never before used
(necessary) tricks are required to complete these!
Also noticed for the first time, that when there are a lot of
characters on the screen that move (as they do when you pick up the
key), Lolo really slows down.

| Re: .66 MP
How did you get through the second maze in the Castle in Lolo II?
It's the maze with only 1 bad guy who shoots in 4 directions. There
are no other monsters. It has 4 blockers and 4 arrows and it gives
you the chance to change one arrow. I can get 3 blockers in the
proper positions around the bad guy but can't figure out how to
get the 4th blocker positioned so I can get my last heart.
I think the password is VPDP. I am totally frustrated!!

277.69 | Moving from LOLO I to LOLO II | BOBBIN::DEMON::CHALMERS | Ski or die... | Tue Jul 31 1990 13:35 | 16 |
| Just finished LOLO I last night. Took me about a week of sporadic play
to beat it. I found it to be very entertaining, although I'm somewhat
disappointed with the ending. I have a few post-mortem questions,
though:
1) If I start from the beginning again, will I see the same screens,
or does it generate new screens for the different levels? (Sort of
like getting to the second level of Zelda I...)
2) What's different between LOLO I and LOLO II? I assume L-II is
more difficult, but is the quest longer? Are the graphics different?
Are there different options available regarding strategy? Etc...Etc...
Looking forward to any replies. Thanks in advance.

Lolo I will be exactly the same the second time around.
Lolo II is same as Lolo I. Easy in the beginning, harder as you go.
Lolo II does have a few "tricks" you need to discover. It also has
some special screens (aside from the regular game) that are really
tough. Use passwords PROA, PROB, PROC & PROD.
Have fun. I'm stuck 2 screens from the ending of Lolo II.
I've entered my dilemma in this file but no one has volunteered
any help. I guess it must be harder than the first.

You only need to block 3 sides with this one. The bottom, left and

Spoiler follows Form-Feed...
I'm not sure if this is the right hint for that room, as it's
been awhile since I've played Lolo, but there are situations
where you can slide one block so only half of it is blocking
what you need to block. This is enough to protect you, and
there are cases where one block can stop the shots of two bad
guys (BG). Crude picture below :

| Re:.71
Is this the room where there's a 'sleeper' penned in an area at the top
right side of the screen? Where there are only two monster-shooters on the
outside? Spoiler follows:
Use the sleeper to block the second monster...
Bigger spoiler follows:
Block the lower monster on the right side and go up to where the
sleeper is penned in. Push the block up from the entrance to the *center*
of the room, and run away. Let the sleeper chase you back down to the
main section of the screen, up to where the second monster waits. Get
the sleeper to fall asleep in such a way that he blocks the second
monster.
Major, big-time, give-it-away spoiler follws:
When the sleeper chases you back to the main section, have LOLO stop
in the upper right corner of the 'grassy' area just below the monster.
The sleeper will veer away and it'll go up and over the monster. While
it's moving up, move LOLO into position just below the space between
the monster and the heart. The sleeper will come down thru the gap to
get you...simply touch it while it's between the monster and the heart,
and it'll fall asleep, completing your block.
Good luck...

277.77 | Spoiler for Floor 7 "Medusa on an Island" | BCSE::WEIER | | Thu Aug 16 1990 09:39 | 24 |
| Spoiler for floor 7
This one is a little tricky, but basically what you need to do is
Shoot snakey and push the egg into the water (DON'T get on yet, or
you'll be killed by medusa). Run around to the right side of the
medusa (as you're looking at the screen), as far down as you can get.
When the egg floats around, jump on, get on the island, move the block
to block medusa and then get back on the egg to get back to land.
(I think you come out on the top right corner of the island, kinda next
to Snakey)
You need to be pretty quick on this one to get on and off the island,
AND block medusa in the same breath.
.... at least I think that was it! If this doesn't work, let me
know, and I'll do it and let you know. We spent a LONG time on this
one, so I'm not positive that I'm remembering the way that we DID it,
or the way that we tried 400 times.
Good Luck!

I don't know how much this will help, but keep in mind that the only
thing the arrow does is say which way you CAN'T move. You can move in
any direction other than OPPOSITE the way the arrow is pointing.
I.e. If the arrow points UP, you can go anyway except DOWN. I remember
this screen is a lot of go down, up, back around, through, back and you
end up doing loop-de-loops. I'll play it tonight and write down just
how. Once you do it, it's not hard to repeat.

I played for about 2 hours and can get down to the last heart and get
it, but then I get killed by the skull guy. I think the 'trick' is in

know if I get it!!!

SPOILER:
Leave the heart that's near the bottom of the screen that's boxed in
by arrows going the 'wrong way' as your last heart.
Still can't get it?
MORE SPOILER:
This is the EXACT directions, so you'll probably want to print this out
and bring it home, or have someone logged on reading while you play;
U = Up
D = Down
R = Right as your LOOKING at the T.V.
L = Left as your LOOKING at the T.V.
HRT = There's a HEART here/near
'#' = The number of 'blocks' (1 stone = the size of 1 block) you should
move, in the direction indicated. ie U1 = Move UP 1 Block, R2 =
Move Right 2 blocks etc.
Start:
U and get HRT. D all the way. R until you reach UP arrow. U1, R1,
U2 (HRT), D1, R2, U to HRT, UP to HRT, UP to top, L3 (HRT), CHANGE
ARROW direction of the arrow in front of you. Go 'through' (Left) arrow
headed towards SKULLman. HRT, D1, L2 (HRT), D2, L1, D1, R1, D2 (HRT),
L2, D1 (you should be at the bottome of the screen here). R to UP
arrow (same as very beginning of the game). U2, R1, U3, L2, D1 (HRT),
L2, CHANGE ARROW **AND BE READY TO RUN** >>>This is your LAST
heart!<<< HRT, R all the way, UP all the way, LEFT all the way and UP
and left to the chest.
SKULLman doesn't come through the path fast enough to catch you that
way unless you 'stumble'.
Now, Hopefully I didn't miss one move and send you on a wild goose
chase! If you can make sure that the heart near the bottom encased in
3 'wrong way' arrows, is the last heart you have left, you shoot in
from the top, and go out through the bottom RIGHT, the rest should be
obvious.
Have FUN!!

| Re .82:
You need to shoot one skull with an egg. Then you can push it back (to
the left), trapping the other skull. Here's more information:
You need to use your shots wisely. Collecting the heart framers will
give you six shots. Use them in this way:
o One shot to make snake into egg, which is used to block the
Medusa at the top left while you get the last heart framer
on the left.
o One shot to shoot snake while still egg, making it disappear.
It comes back in the middle of the screen.
o One shot to make snake into egg again, which is used to
block the Don Medusa at the top right while you get the last
heart framer on the right.
o One shot to shoot snake while still egg again.
o One shot to make snake into egg. Use the egg to block the
Don Medusa again -- but block it from above. This requires
hiding behind the egg at the right moment.
o One shot to shoot skull.

floor of the castle in LOLO 2 and am open to even a small hint. It's
probably been a while since most of you have played this dinosaur, but
if anyone remembers, I could use some relief. I don't remember the
password exactly, but it's something like VKDT, or some combination
thereof (I know the first letter is a V)
I can get all of the heart framers, and all but one of the medusas and
pink moving monsters blocked off. Unfortunately, the one I can't block
is the one that's keeping me from getting to the chest.

| Re: 86
I finished this one myself just a few days ago. You have to use every
trick that LOLO has in his bag to get through it. For a spoiler hit
<Return>.
1. Don't trap the leaper directly over the medusa. Snatch the heart
framer before he hatches and retreat up and over to the right. Once
the leaper comes alive again, he'll come right for you. Zap him again,
push him down to the space between the medusa and the treasure. Sit on
him 'til he hatches and he'll sleep in a position to block your access
to the chest.
2. The second hint is tricky, you need to use the snakey to block the
don medusa to the right, push an emerald block over his old position,
run up and grab the heart framer, run back, zap the eggatized snakey
before he hatches (he'll dissappear) and then staying one step ahead of
the don medusa, get in position to block him in the left corner. You
will then have enough resources to block the other medusa and grab the
jewel. If your timing is off, you won't have enough time to push the
emerald block over the snakey's spot and he'll reappear there.
Good luck.

| I finally found LOLO 3 at Toys R Us here in L.A. It's pretty good, and the kids
and I haven't gotten bored with it. The beginning levels and rooms are easy,
just like LOLO 1 and 2, but they get progressively more difficult. The "World"
has a map sort of like Super Mario 3, where you can choose the level you wish to
challenge. There is even a series of underwater puzzles with new bad guys, but
I haven't gotten that far yet. My only complaint is with the passwords used to
return to the level where you left off. The passwords are very long and don't
always work. After failing to get even one of several passwords to work we've
had to go back to the beginning after resuming a session. which takes up lots
of time. I still recommend LOLO 3 to Nintendo fans who like a little intellect-
ual challenge without the need for the reflexes of a 12 year old.

Every password I've gotten has returned me to the level I stopped at.
When the screen appears after you enter the password, you are in the

you in the room you were in previously.

Yes, the passwords are too long, but I have never had one fail. Make

277.99 | | BEING::EDP | Always mount a scratch monkey. | Mon Mar 23 1992 17:03 | 32 |
| Re .98:
First you have to do some set-up work; you have probably already done
these things:
Turn the left snake into an egg, and push it up and then to the left so
that it blocks the top Medusa. Push a block so that it blocks the
bottom Medusa, so now you can move over to the left side of the board.
(These aren't the first things you do; you'll have already had to block
the right Medusa, et cetera.) Then, go to the left and push in the two
blocks on either side of the chest, and push the block in front of the
chest all the way down.
Now comes the tricky part:
The trick is to get a block in the top row in the space two squares to
the right of the Medusa. Then go into the top row and get the heart in
the top-right corner. Move left to just above the snake. Shoot it
from above, then push it down and then to the right, so that it goes
into the rightmost column and blocks the right Medusa. Then QUICKLY go
above the egg, get the heart, and go back left and down so you are to
the left of the egg. Turn to the right and shoot the egg a second time
while it is still an egg.
Now go up to the top row again and wait for the snake to come back.
When it does, shoot it, push it down two squares, and then push it as
far to the left as it will go, and then push it up to the top right, to
the left of the top Medusa. You can now get all the hearts and go to
the chest.
