Brinstar is very wide. As a result, it has been split up into two parts so that it can fit inside most browser displays. There is an east portion and a west portion, and they are connected by the bridge that straddles the two long vertical columns found on either side. You begin the game just to the right of label 1 on the map. | Brinstar is very wide. As a result, it has been split up into two parts so that it can fit inside most browser displays.

As you run to the missiles, watch out for Skree that drop from the ceiling and the Zebs that appear from the pipes. They will fly right into you without a second thought. Once you collect the missiles, you will want to double back. But remember this location well; the elevator to Norfair is a short distace away. | ||
