Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • That One Boss: The Frankenstein's Monster boss of The Fortress of Fear Realm. Unlike most of the other bosses, you don't fight him through conventional means. Instead, there are golden platforms of varying height. Pounding them lowers the platform you pounded, but raises the platform parallel (or across) from it, which also releases a bolt of lightning that stuns the boss if it is in the line of fire. The boss itself can electrify one of the platforms, kick the platform (which can knock the ball, and in some cases you, off of the perch), and sometimes zaps you with the electricity, instantly popping your ball and making you lose a life. The only way to beat the boss is to align the platforms in a manner that forms a staircase to the switch that only your ball can activate, but getting up there, as was mentioned, is the frustrating part. This is probably the only boss in the game where you might have to resort to cheats in order to beat him (and there's more than enough useful ones to secure your easy victory if you do choose cheats).
