Wario Land 4/Hall of Hieroglyphs

''One day, Wario was sitting at home, just being lazy. But suddenly, he learns that there is a Giant Golden Pyramid hidden somewhere in the jungle which had millions of priceless golden objects. With this get-rich-quick scheme in mind, Wario set off to the jungle. When Wario finally finds it, he scales the pyramid to find an entrance. When he managed to get inside, he found out that he was trapped with no escape. This begins Wario's quest in the Golden Pyramid.''

Entry Passage
Entry Passage is the first of the six passages in the game. It is very easy, and it is mainly used just to get a feel for how to play the game. The only level in the passage, called Hall of Hieroglyphs, has in-game instructions on how to play. Just read the walls behind Wario.

Hall of Hieroglyphs
When you start the level, you will see a frog-like thing behind a wall. Don't worry about it now, you'll get to that later. Just jump up the ledge things on the right wall to advance to the next room. This room has a pipe in it. Go down the pipe, collect the gems, kill the enemy, then go up the next pipe. In the next room, you will fall down the hole to reach the enemy and the first treasure chest. If you want to receive the most money you can from the little enemies, just slam on the ground twice and they should turn red. After you slam into the chest to open it and grab the triangle that pops out of it, go to the next room. This room has a block in your path. Slam it to break it. The next room you have to hit the block in the air. Just jump after slamming. The next room has the second treasure chest and some more enemies. The room after that has another block followed by a blue block. Super slam it to get past. The next room repeats the process, except with jumping. The next room has more blocks and two unusual enemies. Kill them, then break the rightmost block in the air by jumping. Inside is a giant gem. Collect it and head on. The next room requires you to throw a rock to break two smaller blocks. Do so and head on. In the next room, don't go up the ladder yet. dodge the enemy and break the block to the far right. Inside is a heart chest, which will recover all your hearts. Go back, head up the ladder, and break the block above by throwing the rock. Past that is another rock room. Past that is the third treasure chest room. Past that is a room where you have to roll down a slope to break some smaller blocks. Past that is a floating bird-key like creature. This creature will open up the next level in the Entry Passage. Roll down the slope and continue on. In the next room is the fourth and final Treasure chest. If you collected all 4 pieces of the diamond thing, that will let you go to the boss. In the next room, you need to slam the rock, then slam the bigger rocks by climbing up the ladder, collecting the big gem, and doing a super slam. In the next room, break all 4 big blocks, then set the rock in front of the frog-blocks so you can break the smaller ones when you press the frog-switch. Break the smaller rocks, crawl through the hole, and jump into the warp in 15 seconds or you will start losing money. If you lose all your money, you will start losing heart. Lose all your hearts, and you die.
