y THROW TRASH. All good monsters carry an

unlimited supply of trash to throw at enemies. If an
enemy gets messy enough, they will usually run away.
You can throw while jumping, crouching or hanging from
bars. You can't throw while climbing ladders -
it’s just not safe, even for monsters.

B Button : JUMP. Ickis can jump the furthest. Kruimt
doesn't jump very high, but this allows him to jump
over some objects while avoiding things that are above
him. Oblina can jump as high as Ickis, and because she
is so tall, she can reach prizes that are higher

them wisely and look for more

Monster Manuals along your way

X Buft«ti: TRIPLE MONSTER MOVES. Each of the three
monsters can perform a unique move using the other two
monsters. Learn these moves well - teamwork is
frightfully important and your group will need to use
Triple Monster Moves to find important rubbish and get
past certain obstacles. All three monsters must be
standing close together in order to perform a Triple
Monster Move. See page 8 for more information.

Bag *P fresh Tra$ : While the
monsters have an unlimited supply
of trash, finding one of these allows
them to throw a limited supply
(usually 10 pieces) of particularly
potent projectiles that will get rid
of enemies faster.

Diaper: Lucky monsters become
invincible after collecting one of
these. Unlike the diaper itself
which will be around forever, the
invincibility will wear off. Run
quickly through dangerous areas

once you get one of these.

C*fflpl&ti«n MarW 5 you touch one of
the spinning yellow arrows, it will point
your way and mark your passage through
the level. If you lose a try, you will
return to the last marker you touched.

You will also find other, non-spinning
arrows to help you find your way to your goal.

J^*njjfer Annual 5 Each one of these
that you collect will allow you to
perform a special scare to frighten
humans or other enemies. Collect
them whenever you can - if you run
out, you will have to rely on your
physical abilities instead of your monstrous ones.

One-Dp: Grab these to earn an extra
chance to try again from the last
Completion Marker you touched. You know
it won't be easy to pass the Gromble's
test, so get these while you can!

Monsters have always loved junk (who wouldn't, living
in a dump?) Collect any especially vile trash along
the way to improve your grade.

Your grade will be based on the standard Monster
Academy grading scale. The Gramble has developed a
foolproof method for determining the best performance
for each group of monsters on their exam. The math is
frightfully complex, and can be reviewed in the
Monster Academy Offices.

It's very simple, really. Collect all
the assigned prizes, frighten away
all the enemies and scare
the assigned Victim
to get a good score. /

The numbers on the
screen indicate how
many of the prizes you / $
have collected or
enemies you've /A ; |
defeated. You can
always go back to try
to improve your score. 1 Jn

rte City Dumf

1 J i Each portion of your exam
will begin in the dump outside the Academy.
There are enemies here, but you must get complete
the dump level to reach the human world.

B Some enemies scrounge for the

same food you do, (crows and
rats) while others protect the
valuable refuse (junkyard cats
and dogs). Falling tires, spiky
plants, spewing sewage and
crushing trash compactors are
everywhere and should be avoided. There’s even
an old rubber ducky shooting bubbles - AaahhM!
You know how monsters hate to be clean!

Fortunately, there are many things to help you in
the dump as well, such as springs, slides, bars
to climb on or slide down, levers to open doors and
pipes to carry you who-knows-where. Old fans blow
you around, so you’ll need to perfect your flying
skills to use them to your advantage; (try aiming
your leading monster for the fan itself instead
of the air above the fan).

Tfie Human v . . .

Your assigned prize here
is a red sneaker, and your victims will be

the school librarians, but somehow you've ended up
in the gymnasium!

Kids with water balloons, basketballs, tennis balls

and paper airplanes are running everywhere -
and you thought YOU were the

monsters! Defeat them with your
trash, or scare them away if
they start overwhelming you.
Watch out for basketballs and
volleyballs thrown from off¬
screen, and keep moving from
side to side when you’re
climbing ladders.

• Trampolines are always fun to play on, but be

careful where you land.

• Springboards can be pushed to different locations,
and you can even use them to shoot yourself into

a basketball hoop - for two points, of course!

• Watch out for steam, and stay out of showers,

for Krunm’s sake!

• Some toilets are a quick means of transportation:

just press DOWN when you're on one.

Once you make it through both gyms, you’ll have to
brave the school halls. Kids are running everywhere
and are especially fast when the school bell rings.
Duck into the air ducts or hop up on the lockers
to get out of the way.

Tk P*&t Office your next assigned prize

is a coffee mug, and your victim will be the head
postal clerk. She is located deep inside the
automated package-receiving area, and has seen
everything, so she will be especially hard to scare.

Watch out for the machinery! Avoid the heavy

mailbags and falling packages,
automatic sorting machines and
package-grabbing arms (though
these might give you a free
ride)! Postal workers are
quick with their clipboards,

> but mostly defenseless.
Don't get hit!

Large boxes can sometimes be knocked off ledges by
your trash and pushed to different areas to help you
reach high locations. Mail carts might contain hidden
springs or prizes, just keep your eyes open for
falling packages. You can walk on conveyor belts
regardless of which direction they are moving, but

you may be able to find levers and reverse the belts

to help you. Opening and closing mailboxes are simple

once you get the rhythm down.

HINT: The head postal clerk has seen everything,
so she is especially hard to scare. Try the switches
on the wall. I #

The jfeturg] History

Your assigned

prize here is a golden dinosaur skull and your

intended victim is the brave museum guard.

Dinosaurs may have ruled the earth once, but
monsters rule now! The museum is a fun place, with
many huge exhibits to climb on - just watch out for
skeletons with spikes or sections that might break
beneath you. There’s also a mechanical dinosaur
(Pteranodon) in here dropping eggs and another

dinosaur that spits whenever you come near.

The school kids are back, on a
field trip this time, and they
seem to have the run of the
place. The dino skull exhibit
makes an outrageous obstacle
course and the “Plants of the
Dinosaur Age” might bounce you
to frightening heights.

The shallow tar pits will only slow you down,

'll* Mall

all sorts of things at the
mall - hopefully you can find M 7 £.- A ( »r
your assigned prize, a Chinese CSSgJJi
take-out container. Your
assigned victim here is the shopping lady

The school kids are back, but this time they're
shopping! They’ve traded in their sports equipment
for radio-controlled tanks and dune buggies that
chase after you. Use the fountains and trees to get
up high, but you'll have to keep moving or you'll
fall through the palms. Watch out for the steam,
spiky cactuses, pie-throwing jack-in-the-boxes and
the shopping lady... Wait! She's the one you’re
supposed to scare! That was too easy - something’s
wrong here... keep moving while you can!

Master Banter’s Haase

the Gromble’s final test - the
* house of Simon, the Monster Hunter. Your
assigned prize will be a photo of one of the
monsters (Ickis, Oblina or Krumm), and your
victim is Simon. You've already seen this
scary fellow - he’s been taking your
picture, trying to prove that you exist.
C But you can’t have that - if humans
believe in monsters, they won’t be as
frightened by you.

First you have to get by all of his

'• super-secret traps and defenses, which
* are designed to capture monsters like you!

The FLYING EYES trick is one of the Monster Hunter’s
earliest creations. They hover about, searching for
monsters. If it spots one, it moves in to harass them
or release a monster net. If you’re caught in a net,
you'll have to use a scare to get free - don’t worry,
it won’t use up any of your Monster Manuals.

The Monster Trackers look like vacuum cleaners,
and they once were. Now they are computer-controlled
devices for tracking and capturing monsters.

Some of the Trackers are set on patrol, and will
ignore you, but others seek out and attack monsters.
If you’re fast, you can avoid the Monster Trackers,
but if they’re after you, you can only defeat them by
destroying the flashing control center on top.

The Monster Hunter also has cameras and televisions
set up to capture monsters on film. If you walk in
front of a camera, you may be mezmerized by seeing
your picture on screen, (being a particularly
attractive monster, of course). This won’t hurt you,
but it might slow you down enough to be caught by a
Flying Eye or Monster Tracker. Take no chances and
destroy cameras with your trash.

Find the photo of each of the
three levels and you'll face
the Monster Hunter himself.

l HINT: The Monster Hunter
l can only be scared when he
£ is changing his glasses -
try turning out the lights
and see what happens!
