I suggest you read the manual.. But it shouldn't be hard to figure out that you press UP to enter a shop, or that you can access items if you pause :P Like the fire ring, which should help with destroying blocks. Great game, one of the best for the sms.

I tried the up trick in front of the door but it didn't seem to work. You must have to stand in the exact right spot, which was kind of my point.

Also, I don't have the manual. I wouldn't have guessed hitting pause because the pause button is on the console itself and not the controller. Thanks for the heads up though.

@dommiesan Jesus dude, I could do it when I was seven.

I've finished this game multiple times it's my favourite SMS game so stop moaning about the fact that you suck at it and just blame it on the game

omg you know nothing about this game its not hard to go in shops the big black door is the right spot your just a tard i cant believe you set off all the ghosts in lvl 1 and let them kill you i know your not realy playing but is that how you want to be seen...

Heh....bad review man, you just didnt give the game enough time. It really grows on you. The controls are not that bad, you just need to master them and that needs time. Back in the eighties the games were a challenge trough and trough and you actually needed to give it a little effort to finish them not like today. Today games are just interactive movies to watch while playing. And the replay value of this game is huge just for the fun it gives.

This was one of my first sms games, great game i did not like the megadrive/genesis version as much, though.

[BertTrump]

you just press up. man you must suck if you cant get past the second level. practice man.

[damek666]

I don't think the controls are that hard, just practise a little. Besides, you can get that missile thing most of the time.

Also it was pretty retarded that you don't know how to get the bike.

If you wanna talk shit about a game, don't do it just because you suck at it.

By the way, you need at least 200 cash if you are going to do the continue thing.

This and Kung Fu Kid are the only SMS games I've kept from over the years.
