Stuck on Videogame game

[andanotherone]

use the hex editor to make the bars turn into jelly..
when I got to the end, When I went into the boss' door, it teleported me to this weird glitchy world where lines of text fly around. whenever i spawn, i fall into a pit. how can i get through?

[Reecer6]

Hey, apparently, you AREN'T supposed to use the hex editor! I think that hole behind the poster would bring you right in front of the bars, and that would make the area not glitchy.

Help, when I got there, there was a glitchy pit covering almost the entire floor. If I jump down, it just teleports me to the balconies again!

[snoomanwaff]

Enter and exit again, that's what worked for me.

this is more of a story question but I am stuck, I've got to the duolith on the moor and released the spirit of the zodiac boots as part of the astralmancer sidequest, but they've gone right back and possessed the gardening club secretary and most of the party.so one thing is that I want to know why this happend and the second It's just me, the tamer and the 'boojum' against pretty much the entire party (bar a few I haven't recruited yet) and the gardening club secretary four at a time, they pretty much kick my ass.

[andanotherone]

I actually have no idea how or why that happens. japan is just weird. but, the easiest way to destroy the party is to pretend like your possesed, and sneak attack when nobody's looking. It's hard to not get caught, but it'll lessen the enemies you have to face.

the dragun after the cave of mildly unpleasant misfortunes keeps sniping my units before I can even see it, and every time i cast a spell, wizzbeard casts spell cancel!

[DimJim]

Simple. Get a Sorcerer and have them wear a Tin Foil Cap so they'll get cancel immunity.

But now I'm stuck in the part where

the main character dies and your most powerful character is possessed.

[shieldman]

This was tough for me too. However, remember the Flip Form spell you got? The one that just inverts stuff? Use it on your most powerful character after he's possessed, and then quickly retarget to a rock in the room. It should flip the stats of the rock and the character, making him easy to take down. Then you get the rock as a party member. It knows a powerful rez spell, so you can usually use that on MC.

I'm stuck on the part in which you have King Multi's staff of Exponential Growth. Every time I try to use it, though, it fires in a hyperbola instead of a parabola. Any suggestions? It's making the fight with Ingram impossible.

[andanotherone]

turn the staff upside down to turn it into doc grammar's hyper bole wand. then it'll fire the parabolas.
after I beat The End, I left and his castle was destroyed. It still says I haven't beaten the main game, but mission control says i should just "enjoy the peace". what's up?

[DimJim]

Remember the giant pie that guy said he was making?

Should be obvious.




Now I'm stuck at the part where you have to buy the next game. I go to the store and the guy says he's never heard of the game, but after what I've done it should be there. What should I do?

[Reecer6]

Silly, sequals don't exist in their predecessor! Go buy it in Real Life.

I'm stuck right at the beginning of the third game. I'm playing the first protagonist, and he's locked in school. Oh, and this game isn't supposed to leave the school.

[DimJim]

The "third game" you bought was actually a stand-alone, more of a remake of the first one. You HAVE to get 3 from 2.

[andanotherone]

whack the shopkeeper. he's withholding the game from behind the desk.
I've gotten past the pie stage, but now i have to show the public proof of the conspiracy to make them do anything. where can i find it?

[Schazer]

Have you even checked out the bonus feature material in the case? In the bios of the chief Dev it says he's a fan of old school games like... Well you should go read it. If you haven't played the game in question, I suggest you put down this one right now and go find it or put this game down right now and

Either way, that activates the Regeneration Pool which'll bring all the townspeople back from the dead, restoring time and junk.

Or it would if I could find the Second Monstrosity... Unless somebody knows a different way to harvest Timeflub without grinding for 40 hours on Chronimps.

[DimJim]

At any time you can switch from the third game to the second. Go to the first area of the second game, then activate the Paradox Generator (The same one that fucked up the Pocket Watch of Destiny) while you have the Atomic Clock of Blood. It should make Timeflub rain from the sky in Torrent Sector until it's no longer needed.
The Second Monstrosity is, in fact, fake.


I can't find the Kool Kid's Klub's headgear to gain access to the Pumpkin Room.

[Reecer6]

Join the Kool Kid Klub, they'll give it to you automatically.

The thing is, I walked into the Pumpkin room and the door locked behind me. HELP!

[GreyGabe]

All you have to do is drink the Pumpkin Potion in the middle of the room (after you grab the Pumpkin Mace and Shield). It will give you the Uncertain status effect. You will automatically teleport about for a while. The first time should get you out of the room.

I'm stuck in the battle against the Archduke of Flame. Every time I start the battle with him, he begins charging up his Disco Inferno attack. I've tried attacking him, inflicting status effects, and running. Nothing works! He just uses Disco Inferno on his next turn, and I burn, baby, burn.

[shieldman]

You have defeated a wild BOREDOMITE!
It dropped a MYSTERIOUS IMAGE.

It's the best I could do in Paint.

[Reecer6]

That firstboss is a red herring until near the end of the game, or so I heard. Just go back to the school, and you should trip into a mirror, and appear in the Mirror School. Yeah, the first part of the game is mostly useless. Anyways, go into the Game Club room, to progress.

I'm stuck in the Game dimension. The door lead to a volcano with Chess Pawns floating around, but I dunno how to get past.

Your best is damn good.

[Dragon Fogel]

I'm stuck in the Game dimension. The door lead to a volcano with Chess Pawns floating around, but I dunno how to get past.

Look at the bottom of the volcano, it's in a checkerboard pattern of water and lava. One of the water squares has a shark. Jump into that square, and the shark will try to eat you, but it's only able to fit your head in its mouth. Bite the inside of the shark and it will spit you out with immense force, sending you to a new area.

I'm stuck on the battle with the Black Checker God and Red Checker God. Every time I hit one, the other gets stronger, and if I destroy one, the other becomes invincible! I tried balancing my attacks between them to finish them both with one move, but then they both get ridiculously strong and I just can't survive.

[andanotherone]

pacifism. don't attack either god, they'll eventually destroy themselves.
two words: BONUS DUNGEON. where is it?

[Schazer]

Use Socialtech: Bickering Bedfellows. The trick here is to make them realise they're not on the same team. Then they'll tear each other apart and you just have to avoid their crashing and banging about (watch out for their stompy feet, they'll one hit KO you :P)

[Dragon Fogel]

To find the bonus dungeon - remember the whole thing about Apollo's Wings being under an oak tree in the first game, and the obvious oak tree was a red herring? If you tried to dig there once you could reach it later, you wouldn't find anything... but that only applies to the *first* game! In 2/3, you can get back to that oak tree to find the bonus dungeon. You have to go back and forth between the games several times to beat it, though.

I'm stuck on the super bonus boss at the end, though... It's a pretty big spoiler who it is, though. If you've already gotten there, check the spoiler.

Okay, the super bonus boss is Problem Sleuth, Ace Dick, and Pickle Inspector. The big problem is PI; he isn't very strong at first, but even if I go all-out, I can't beat him before the battle shifts to the Imaginary Realm. And then he's just brutal. On top of that, AD starts taking hits for him, so I can't beat him until AD goes down... but if PS is left alone, he starts using Sepulchritude! I tried taking PS down first, but then PI was around for a lot longer, and I just couldn't hold out that long against him. What do I have to do here?

[GreyGabe]

Yeah, that was a hard fight, all right. I'll put it here in a spoiler so it doesn't ruin it for anyone.

Be sure to stock up on restoratives before this battle! Okay, first things first, you need to use your Scroll of Reality (which you got from saving the Castle of Lucidity) on PI. His imagination will take a huge hit, and he won't be able to do much. After that, attack PS until he goes down. He's tough, but as long as you don't let him launch Sepulchritude you shouldn't have too much trouble. After you deal with him, concentrate on Ace and you should be able to defeat him and pummel PI for a while before the scroll wears off. After that, just finish PI off and you should be good.

Okay, I'm stuck in the bonus area: Maze of Unending Sorrows, underneath the Temple of Tears. The Maze keeps shifting around while I'm trying to find my way through it! And on top of that, the status effects inflicted by the traps are really doing a number on my party. So, when I run into the Depressed Minotaur who wanders around down there, he always beats me in just a couple of turns.

[DimJim]

Remember the Seer in the Library of Eternity talking about "The Great Purpose"?
Buy a Recorder, go listen to the Seer again, then go down to the Depressed Minotaur. When combat initiates, use the Recorder. He'll end up unlocking as a potential ally as well as disarming all the traps in the dungeon!

Of course, this isn't the only way to defeat him.


Now I'm stuck against the second form of Maget. Its Molten Steel Barrage keeps taking out my spellcaster who's the only one who can actually do damage to Maget. I tried using the Sweet Bananas and even they didn't work!

[shieldman]

Maget is a pretty tough fight, but it's easy if you take the steps in the beginning. When he's still in his iron shell, get him to ram the walls a couple of times by dodging. Once he's done that, break it and unleash his second form. Then, bait him into firing the Molten Steel Barrage at the wall he weakened, and the water behind the cave should fill the room and freeze his arm in place. Then just finish him.

I need help with phase 4 of the Tree of Knowledge. I got the Sapphire Pixel of Knowledge, but the Bat Emitters keep swarming me whenever I try for the next Pixel. How do I disable/weaken them so I can get by?
