Walkthrough
1
Start of Level Eight. To your right is an Evil Potion. Go left and climb the platform.
2
Once on the platform, go left. Watch out for loose slabs. You will encounter a guard named Linger, a switch, and spikes.
3
To defeat Linger:
Move one step forward. When he strikes, move backward to evade. As soon as his strike finishes, move forward and strike to catch him off balance.
4
Alternatively, move forward. When he strikes, block and counterattack. Continue this until he falls into the spike pit or dies.
Press the switch to open the gate on your left and jump across.
In the next screen, go to the ledges on the left and climb down. Get past the cutter at the bottom.
In the next screen, jump over the ground-level spikes. Go right to find the level door.
Head right, evade spikes, and defeat the green guard.
Go right again and take the potion if needed. Defeat the green guard on the platform by sneaking underneath.
Jump to the right on the series of ledges, then jump back onto the left platform with the guard. If needed, grab the potion above.
Activate the switch. Run and jump across the gate on the left.
You will see two cutters and a switch above the first one. This switch opens the gate you came from. Both gates are controlled by the switch on the platform with the guard, so you must rush.
After passing the gate with the cutter, you come to another closing gate. Run and jump across the loose slab at the end to make it in time.
In the next screen, run and jump to the platform on the left. Above the ledge is a potion and a dead-end platform.
When you jump from the left platform, watch out for a loose slab.
In the next screen, defeat the orange guard and get past the cutter. Proceed left.
Activate the switch, but be aware of the trap beside it. Jump over the trap and jump towards the gate on the left.
Inside this gate, you will find two cutters placed close together. Timing is crucial.
Activate the level switch. Carefully step back to the cutters.
Exit through the open gate. If stuck, a mouse will activate the switch. Climb down and go for the level door.
Tips
Trying to run past Linger is slower than killing him. Try to kill him or drive him into the spikes.
To get past the twin cutters blocking the level switch on the way out, jump past them quickly to avoid waiting for the mouse.
