The New Zealand Story

On the title screen, press `Del' then `M'. Then type "FLUFFY KIWIS".

A 2nd cheat is to pause the game, and press `M'. You should hear a laser gun sound.

Type "MOTHERFUCKENKIWIBASTARDS". Unlimited lives are yours.

Note: Another cheat starts the word as "MUTH...". Another file (this could be for the ST version says type "FLYFFY KIWIS" (including space) at any time for infinite lives.

Hold 'SHIFT' and type "PHILLIP" on the title screen for mega firepower.

A 3rd cheat:

To access the cheat mode just press "TRY CHEATING" (including the space) keys together while on the title screen. The border should turn grey and when you start the game you have infinite kiwi's and the ability to skip levels by pressing "<-".

Hints:

The town names are:

AUCKLAND, ROTORUA, WAITOMO CAVES, STRAIT COOK, and MT COOK.

The level warps are on each level except the last two. Activate by firing arrows at certain areas of the screen. Here are most of them:

Has anyone heard of the whirl-winds? They advance you levels. Near the end of level 1_1 there are three large steps that you must climb to reach your brother (sister?), who is in a cage. Stand at the left edge of the top step, facing left and jump. But as you jump, fire. If your current weapon is arrows, fire halfway up, but if your weapon is bombs, fire at the top of your jump. A whirl-wind should appear after four hits, and it will take you to level 1_4. Another source says: On level 1, part 1, move to the area containing three men with boomerangs and shoot them. Go to the top of the third platform, move to the left, jump and fire five times. A whirlwind in a box will appear if you enter it, you will be transported to the end of the level. Then you can free Tiki's naughty friend just by jumping. When you reach the ice whale, move to the right-hand side of the spikes, avoid the crystals, and wait until he picks you up. Once inside the whale, you can start shooting, but avoid the ice drops. Meeting the rock monster without bombs, makes him difficult to pass. So collect bombs, go to the highest platform and shoot it. Kill it by either dodging the bullets and hitting it when the doors open, or with fireballs. The last boss you encounter is the balloon seal. He can't be killed, by blows to the body, so you must hit the balloon. Be careful, for the balloon seal is armed with a cannon and shoots cannon balls at Tiki.

On level 1-2, shoot the baddies and collect the blue E on the floor to the right. Now hop back to the point where you started and stand on the last two blocks on the left side of the second floor. Shoot towards the left wall, while doing tiny hops, and the warp'll appear. This'll bring you to level 1-2, where there are two Extend Life Pills.

From the starting position on level 1-3, there are twelve ledges and a wall to the right. Go to the other side of the wall and fire to the left towards the second ledge from the bottom. Ship required. This'll bring you to level 2-1 near the end of the round.

In 1-4, you will be in a little box under some water. Go up and to the right and you come out in a small room with three boxes on the right hand side. Go up these, and you will see 4 long spaces, the top one having an "N" and a "D" in it. Go up to the top one, get the letters, stand in the centre of the space, facing left, and fire. Yep, you guessed it, another whirl-wind. This one takes you to level 2-4. There are others, but I wont tell you - it would spoil it! But I will tell you that there is one on level 2-4. Happy hunting!

On level 2-1 a small tunnel is above your kiwi friend, which takes you to some stair-like ledges leading to a small cavern where there're two fruits. Fire at the fruit on the right. Ship needed to reach tunnel. This brings you to level 3-4.

Find a balloon on level 2-2 and float up to where the bears on balloons emerge. Stand to the right of the green left-pointing arrow and shoot the bears' balloons away. Repeat this until the warp appears. This brings you to the end of level 2-2.

There's a ledge on level 2-2 with a green arrow pointing right. Jump up into the water. This takes you to level 2-2 halfway through the level.

Follow the first water you come to on level 2-3. There are two ledges with spikes below at the end. Stand on one ledge and fire at the other. This takes you to level 2-3 halfway through the level.

Or on level 2.4 , stand at the entrance to the room where the giant octopus is located and fire to the right several times. A warp will appear that will take you to the beginning of level 3.1.
