Walkthrough
  1. 1
    This room is optional.
  2. 2
    Locate the Money Ghost hiding on an exercise machine in the top right corner. Interact with the machine to reveal and vacuum him.
  3. 3
    Check the drawer and lamps for money and items.
  4. 4
    Run on the left-most exercise machine for a while to obtain a key. This key unlocks the door to the rest of the first floor, creating a shortcut.
  5. 5
    Approach the Portrait Ghost, Biff Atlas.
  6. 6
    Stand near one of the three punch bags and press 'A' to make Luigi punch it. Aim to hit Biff Atlas with the punch bag.
  7. 7
    Biff Atlas will become angry and start punching at Luigi. Position Luigi behind a punch bag to avoid his attacks.
  8. 8
    Repeat the process of hitting Biff Atlas with a punch bag two more times to defeat him. If you miss, you can try again; he is powerful and difficult to defeat in one attempt.
  9. 9
    After Biff Atlas is defeated, a treasure chest containing a lot of money will appear. Collect it.
  10. 10
    Finally, locate and capture the Boo, Booregard, who has 100 HP.
