Now you are in the cave under Vincent's den. There are potato chips falling down, and in total you need to catch 60 of them to complete the level. This can be a hard mission as they fall very fast and are hard to catch; you are more likely to actually catch the chips while jumping than running around. Be careful as there are also rocks falling; you can tell when one is going to fall because of the dust that falls before it. If you are hit by a rock you loose one dot of health. First, after collecting 15 chips, some rats will appear and start to attack you. It is possible to collect a few chips after you have reached a milestone, however they will stop falling as the rats appear. Take care of all of them, then you are back to collect potato chips. After you have collected 30 chips, some rats with ping-pong ball guns will appear around the edge of the cave. You need to use your range weapon to hit them. There are six rats altogether. After you have defeated them, you collect chips again. As you reach the 45 chip milestone, more rats will appear; this time both running around you and shooting from the edge. After you have defeated them all, collect the number of chips you need to get to 60 and you will have completed the level.
 
Now you're navigating the cave beneath Vincent's den and you need to catch the falling potato chips. A total of 60 chips need to be gathered to clear this level, but it won't be easy: these chips plummet rapidly, making them quite elusive. Surprisingly, adopting a jumping strategy tends to be more effective in securing these chips than running around.
 
However, these aren't the only things descending from above. Keep a keen eye out for telltale signs of falling rocks: primarily the preceding dust. Being struck by one will cost you a health point.
 
Upon securing your first 15 chips, anticipate a rat ambush. While it's feasible to snatch a few extra chips after hitting this initial milestone, their descent will soon cease, giving way to the rat assault. Swiftly handle these adversaries to return to your chip collection quest.
 
The scenario becomes trickier after accumulating 30 chips. At this stage, rats wielding ping-pong ball guns emerge around the cave's perimeter. Resort to your range weapon to fend off these six sharpshooters.
 
Your chip count hitting 45 signals another rat onslaught. This time, they're both charging at you and firing from the cave's boundaries. Tackle this menace to resume your chip chase. Once your tally hits the 60-chip target, a successful level completion awaits.

Don't get hit by the falling rocks Avoid the rocks that fall with the chips. If you are playing single player and the CPU character is hit, it doesn't count.

Now you're navigating the cave beneath Vincent's den and you need to catch the falling potato chips. A total of 60 chips need to be gathered to clear this level, but it won't be easy: these chips plummet rapidly, making them quite elusive. Surprisingly, adopting a jumping strategy tends to be more effective in securing these chips than running around.

However, these aren't the only things descending from above. Keep a keen eye out for telltale signs of falling rocks: primarily the preceding dust. Being struck by one will cost you a health point.

Upon securing your first 15 chips, anticipate a rat ambush. While it's feasible to snatch a few extra chips after hitting this initial milestone, their descent will soon cease, giving way to the rat assault. Swiftly handle these adversaries to return to your chip collection quest.

The scenario becomes trickier after accumulating 30 chips. At this stage, rats wielding ping-pong ball guns emerge around the cave's perimeter. Resort to your range weapon to fend off these six sharpshooters.

Your chip count hitting 45 signals another rat onslaught. This time, they're both charging at you and firing from the cave's boundaries. Tackle this menace to resume your chip chase. Once your tally hits the 60-chip target, a successful level completion awaits.
