Adventures of Lolo II (Japan)/Level 12

This chapter discusses the solutions to level 12. One thing to take a note of: Every room in level 12 has at least one Don Medusa in it.

12-1


The first level of Don Medusa haven is tricky in how to distribute the EFs. There's one part you'll need to be speedy.


 * Move the EF on G9 left one, go down and move it to G10.
 * Move the EF on F7 up and over to I2. Move the EF on G4 to J5.  Get the G6 heart and move the EF on G5 to K4.
 * This part needs to be done quickly: Shoot the Snakey and move it up to J1, get the heart.  When you're clear, shoot the egg again.  Push the EF on I2 up to trap Don to the right.  Push the EF on G3 to Snakey's spot on H6.  The Moby will suck you along the way, so compensate for that.
 * Move the EF on I1 right one to fully trap the Don.
 * Shoot the Gol on B3 and push it down two, get the heart when you're clear, then push it down to trap the Don on A7. Get the D7 heart.
 * Move the EF on C9 left one. Move the one on B10 left one.  Move the one now on B9 up and over to A8.  Get the heart.
 * Move the EF on H6 to E6. Go down and move the one on I9 right one.  Go back up and around and move the one now on J9 down one and then left one.  Use the 3 EFs here to trap the Don on all sides.  Get the hearts on E11 and K11.
 * Go through the left arrow and move the EF on E6 right one and maneuver it down and left to B11. Get the last heart.
 * Shoot the Gol and make your way over to the chest.

12-2


You'll need to really time the Dons at a few points here. Some real close calls.


 * Move the EF on E6 down one. Move the one on D7 down two.  Move the one now on E7 down and over to C10.  Get the heart on F9.  When the Don on the right is clear, move the EF on G9 to C8.
 * Go across the breaking bridge on G3 and move the EF on H4 down one. Go back over the same bridge and go down and over across the bridge on J6.  Move the same EF all the way left to A5.
 * Go down and through the left arrow. Push the Snakey on B10 up one and get the heart.
 * Go up to C5. This step you'll need to time carefully:  When the Don comes down and taps the EF, cross up with the Snakey, get the heart on the left, get back on the egg and cross up.  When the Don is clear, get the heart on D1.
 * Go down to F6. This step you'll also need to time carefully:  Shoot the Snakey and start pushing it down.  When the right Don clears, use it to cross the water on G11, get the heart and cross back.  Move the EF on J8 right one.
 * When the Snakey returns, use it to cross on K7 and move the EF all the way down. Get the heart on I10.  You'll get a bridge power.
 * Go across the cracked bridge on J6. Wait on H4.  When the left Don clears, quickly go right and deploy the bridge on J2.  Go up.  When the left Don clears, get the last heart and go back.
 * Keep watching the Don as you make your way up to the chest.

12-3


This one's not too tricky. The main thing someone might miss is the small water current on H7.


 * To start, move the EF on F8 over to J8. When the right Don clears, get the heart on J6 and then use the same EF to trap it on K6.
 * Get the heart on C9. Move the EF on C10 up one then right one.
 * This needs to be done quickly: Push the C7 Snakey up one to block Don to the right.  Get the heart on A6.  Go under and when you're clear, shoot the egg again.  Use D11 for cover.
 * When the Snakey returns, push it up and trap the Don on A6.
 * Use your bridge on F6 and get the nearby heart. You'll get a hammer.  Use it to break the rock above you.
 * Move the EF now on D9 to G6. Use the Snakey on F10 and maneuver it to the water on H7.  The current will move you left one.  Push the EF up to H4.
 * Push the Snakey on C3 left two. Get the 2 nearby hearts.  You'll get another hammer.
 * Break the rock on H11. Get the last heart on K11.
 * For the remainder, you'll need to use the 3 EFs one by one and position them on G6. Keep using the F10 Snakey like you did before to push them up from the water. Position them to block both Medusas so you can access the chest.

12-4


This level's kind of tricky in the order you need to do some things.


 * Maneuver the EF on D7 to E5. Move the EF on H8 right one.  Move the one on G9 to I10.  Get the heart on J10.  Go up to K3 and when the Don clears, get the heart on K1 and go back.
 * Maneuver the EF on E5 to B3. Watch the Dons as you're doing this.
 * Push the Moby on D2 up one to block the upper Don to the left. Carefully get the heart on F1 and shoot the egg again.
 * From here, go back to the right area and push the EF on J3 to trap Don up by the wall. Get the heart.  Move the EF on I8 down to H11.
 * Work your way back to the top left. Move the EF on C2 to trap Don on F1.  Get the 2 hearts.
 * Move the Moby on D2 down to A4. Get that heart.  Shoot the egg again.  When the Moby returns, put it on F4.
 * Go down, get the heart on C9. Move the Moby down and get the last heart and then head to the chest.

12-5


The final room is tricky. The beginning is mainly the hard part.


 * Move the EF on B7 right one. Get the heart on C5.  Move the same EF down and trap Don against the wall, but be sure the horizontal moving Don stays to the right side of this Don.  Get the heart on B10.
 * This needs to be done quickly: Move the Moby on B8 all the way down and get the corner heart.  Shoot the egg again and move the EF on B6 down two spaces.  Watch the Don to your right while doing this.
 * When Moby appears on H7, move the EF now on B8 to trap the other vertical moving Don and "sandwich" the 3 Dons. Get the heart on E6 too.
 * Get the heart on G7. Move the EF on G9 all the way down.  Move the one on H9 to I10.  Move the one on J10 up three.  Get the heart on K6 and move up and left.  The Moby will pull you in.
 * Use the Moby on J2 and push it to G1. Move down and move the EF left one. Shoot the egg again and take cover.  When the Don passes, move the same EF to B1.
 * Move the EF on B4 down and over to I6. Watch the Don up top.
 * Go back to the top right. When you're clear, get the heart on I3 and put the Moby on H3 over on A2.  Get the heart on A3 now.  Go back around and use the J2 Moby to trap Don up in the top right corner.  Get the last heart and the chest.

Level 12 boss


The level ends with a fight against a giant Don Medusa. It will move around the room's walls counter-clockwise. Once it reaches the place where it started it will then move in a diamond pattern. It repeats these two patterns then. Upon reaching a point adjacent to the center, it will shoot out a giant knife right at the center. The knives are invincible. The best strategy is simply to trail the Don in its movement. Since it always shoots towards the center, you will not be caught by its knives. The Don Medusa will explode when defeated.
