This is an EXPLICIT walk-through of the game CAPTAIN BLOOD. By
|
||
following along with this, you'll be able to complete the game in
|
||
approximately three hours. Along the way, you'll get a look at all of
|
||
the different races in the game except the Buggols (and if you've
|
||
played the game at all, you've probably seen plenty of them). You'll
|
||
find and kill all of the Duplicates (known as Numbers in the European
|
||
version of the program), and you'll beam TORKA, the "Babe of the
|
||
Galaxy", aboard your ship to end the game and live happily ever after.
|
||
|
||
A Couple of Hints:
|
||
|
||
1)TAKE NOTES!! This is the most important thing in CAPTAIN BLOOD. It's
|
||
essential that you keep track of all the of planetary coordinates that
|
||
you receive during the game.
|
||
|
||
2)Many times when the different races you meet speak, they seem to be
|
||
speaking nonsense. Sometimes that's exactly what they're speaking.
|
||
Other times, they're talking about other creatures and other planets.
|
||
The names of the creatures and planets in this game are definitely off-
|
||
beat.
|
||
|
||
3)Use all of the time-cutting shortcuts available to you - use the
|
||
right mouse button to warp from planet to planet, use the right/then
|
||
left button when you destroy planets. The warp and planetary
|
||
destruction graphics are pretty, but time consuming. After you've seen
|
||
them a couple of times, you'll be doing yourself a favor if you skip
|
||
them - time is essential in this game, and you'll be killing enough of
|
||
it as it is...
|
||
|
||
First, you want to begin the game on a Migrax-occupied planet. It may
|
||
take up to half a dozen reboots - maybe more - before you start on a
|
||
Migrax-occupied planet, but one will come up eventually (by the way,
|
||
the game boots with either Buggol or the Izwal Small Yoko much of the
|
||
time - other times with Croolis-Ulv or Migrax. Keep trying till you
|
||
get a Migrax.. The game CAN be won in a couple of different ways, but
|
||
the way explained here requires that you start with a Migrax-occupied
|
||
planet.
|
||
|
||
This will be the planet REPRODUCTION 14 and the Migrax you're speaking
|
||
to will be GREAT BOUNTY.
|
||
|
||
He'll mention something about MISSILE BRAVE - this is another Migrax
|
||
that you'll be meeting shortly. Tell GREAT BOUNTY that you want to
|
||
teleport him to another planet. He'll agree. Teleport him to your
|
||
ship, then choose a planet at random and go there. When you arrive,
|
||
land and teleport GREAT BOUNTY down to the planet surface.
|
||
|
||
He won't be happy about the whole thing. He'll want to go home. Chat
|
||
with him a while - sooner or later he'll ask you if you know PLANET
|
||
SPIRIT. Shortly thereafter, he'll give you some planetary coordinates.
|
||
This will take you to a planet where TORKA (aka "The Babe of the
|
||
Galaxy") hangs out. You can go visit her now. Go to the planet
|
||
coordinates GREAT BOUNTY gave you and land. TORKA will give you the
|
||
coordinates of TUBULAR BRAIN 4. Jot them down, but don't bother going
|
||
to visit him yet. You'll need to visit him in Hour 125. Before Hour
|
||
125, you'll pretty much be wasting your time, watching him spit numbers
|
||
at you until he tells you to rendezvous with him at Hour 125. So avoid
|
||
the visit for now.
|
||
|
||
Go back to the planet where you left GREAT BOUNTY. Ask him for the
|
||
coordinates of planet MISSILE BRAVE. He'll give them to you, telling
|
||
you that MISSILE BRAVE's planet is REPRODUCTION 128. That's your next
|
||
stop.
|
||
|
||
MISSILE BRAVE wants you to teleport GREAT BOUNTY back to REPRODUCTION
|
||
14. He won't give you any information till you do. Go back to the
|
||
planet where you left GREAT BOUNTY, teleport him up, and take him home.
|
||
When you teleport him down, he'll tell you that the ANTENNA race knows
|
||
the planets of the ROBHEADS. Then he'll take off on a rendezvous and
|
||
that's the last you'll see of him.
|
||
|
||
Go back to planet REPRODUCTION 128 for your reward from MISSILE BRAVE.
|
||
He'll give you the coordinates of PLANET 128, a SINOX planet, and will
|
||
also give you the SINOX code - IMPOSSIBLE NOT SINOX. While you're
|
||
there, ask him about the code (as in "Say Code"). He'll tell you the
|
||
code is FRIEND FRIEND. Keep it in mind when you're dealing with the
|
||
TUBULAR BRAIN in Hour 125.
|
||
|
||
Go to planet 128. This is the planet of a SINOX named BRAIN
|
||
RADIOACTIVITY. He'll ask you for the code. Give him the SINOX code.
|
||
When he's done thinking about that, ask him about the DUPLICATES.
|
||
He'll tell you he needs you to do something for him. That something is
|
||
the transporting of ANTENNA from 4 planets to 4 other planets. The 4
|
||
planets he'll mention are KRISTO 15, KRISTO 7, KRISTO 34, and KRISTO 8.
|
||
He'll give you the coordinates of each planet, then dismiss you.
|
||
|
||
Go to the first planet and land. You'll meet your first ANTENNA.
|
||
First, ask the ANTENNA for the coordinates of planet ROBHEAD. He'll
|
||
give you a set of coordinates. Write them down. Then the fun begins.
|
||
Convincing the ANTENNA to teleport can be very annoying - they have a
|
||
limited vocabulary, and it really doesn't seem to matter what you say.
|
||
He will, eventually, indicate a willingness to teleport up. Take him
|
||
to another planet (any unoccupied planet will do), land, and teleport
|
||
him down.
|
||
|
||
The other three ANTENNA are fairly easy to teleport to your ship as
|
||
long as you FIRST ask them the coordinate of the ROBHEAD planet (there
|
||
are a total of 4 ROBHEAD planets, and each Antenna knows one). As soon
|
||
as the ANTENNA gives you the coordinates, it will express willingness
|
||
to teleport. Teleport it immediately, without even clicking on the
|
||
translator lips. Otherwise the ANTENNA can change its mind, and you'll
|
||
spend 5-10 minutes trying to convince it to teleport.
|
||
|
||
When you've transplanted ALL of the ANTENNA (and do not, under any
|
||
circumstances, disintegrate them - just take them each to another
|
||
planet) - go to each of the ROBHEAD planets. After landing, ask each
|
||
the name of the planet. They will give you a number. Jot it down next
|
||
to the coordinates. Don't bother asking them anything else - they're
|
||
not much for conversation.
|
||
|
||
After you've got the numerical identity of each Robhead planet, go back
|
||
to planet 128. The SINOX there will be very happy and after praising
|
||
your efforts, will give you the coordinates of planet BOW-BOW. This is
|
||
the home planet of SMALL YOKO, an IZWAL.
|
||
|
||
Before going to BOW-BOW, pay a quick visit to MISSILE BRAVE on planet
|
||
REPRODUCTION 128. Ask him for the coordinate of the DUPLICATE planet.
|
||
Be persistent. If he dismisses you, go back down to the planet surface
|
||
and ask again. Eventually, he will give you the coordinates.
|
||
|
||
Go to that planet. You'll see DUPLICATE 2. He may give you a little
|
||
bit of resistance, but will eventually indicate a willingness to
|
||
teleport. Teleport him up and disintegrate him. You now have enough
|
||
juice to get you through to HOUR 180 or so before starting to shake.
|
||
That should actually allow you to finish the game.
|
||
|
||
Go to see SMALL YOKO. He'll tell you about his missing father (MAXON)
|
||
and will tell you that a CROOLIS-ULV named DEAD GENETIC knows all about
|
||
his father. He'll give you the coordinates of the planet where DEAD
|
||
GENETIC is, called TRAP 4. Go there.
|
||
|
||
After a bit of what passes for conversation with a CROOLIS-ULV, DEAD
|
||
GENETIC will suggest that you go destroy the 4 planets of his enemy,
|
||
the CROOLIS-VAR. These four planets are TRAP 2, GREAT FEAR, KILL YOU,
|
||
and TRAP 1. He'll give you the coordinates of the planets. Write them
|
||
down but YOU DO NOT WANT TO DESTROY THESE PLANETS!! At least not right
|
||
now...
|
||
Go to the first planet DEAD GENETIC told you about, TRAP 2, and meet
|
||
with the CROOLIS-VAR there. He'll identify himself as GOOD NONSENSE.
|
||
After a bit of chit-chat, GOOD NONSENSE will suggest that you go
|
||
destroy the planets of HIS enemy, the CROOLIS-ULV. He'll tell you
|
||
about the planet of DEAD GENETIC (TRAP 4, where you've already been),
|
||
plus the planets of HOWDY PRISON and INSULT 4. He'll make mention of
|
||
the planet of his "friend" GREAT DESTROY, as well, but won't give you
|
||
any coordinates since he doesn't want you to destroy the planet.
|
||
|
||
Visit both HOWDY PRISON and INSULT 4, and find out the names of their
|
||
planets (you'll need that information very soon). After visiting
|
||
INSULT 4, go back to HOWDY PRISON and start pressing him about the
|
||
coordinates of the planet of GREAT DESTROY. After a bit, he'll tell
|
||
you.
|
||
|
||
Go there. GREAT DESTROY (a CROOLIS-ULV) will want you to tell him the
|
||
names of the three other planets of the CROOLIS-ULV. Give him the
|
||
three names (TRAP 4 plus the names of the planets of HOWDY PRISON and
|
||
INSULT 4). Give him that information and he'll give you the
|
||
coordinates of Planet IDEA 762. Go there.
|
||
|
||
IDEA 762 is occupied by an IZWAL named SMALL FRIEND. SMALL FRIEND will
|
||
tell you about HIS friends, a TRICEPHAL named GOOD FRIEND on planet
|
||
SMALL HOME. He'll give you coordinates. As you might imagine, that's
|
||
your next stop.
|
||
|
||
GOOD FRIEND will pass the time with you, mentioning ENTRAX SINOX.
|
||
Press GOOD FRIEND on a coordinate for ENTRAX SINOX. After a bit,
|
||
you'll be given a set of coordinates. Go there.
|
||
|
||
You'll find yourself on planet 256 with a SINOX named BRAIN
|
||
RADIOACTIVITY. BRAIN RADIOACTIVITY wants to know the identity of the
|
||
ROBHEAD planets. The proper format is "Planet (Number 1) Planet
|
||
Robhead (Number 2)". Number 1 is the number that the ROBHEADs gave you
|
||
when you questioned them earlier. Number 2 is a number from one to
|
||
four - based on the first number of the three number sequence the
|
||
ROBHEADs gave you. For example, if the ROBHEAD said his planet was
|
||
planet 255, you'd tell BRAIN RADIOACTIVITY "Planet 255 Planet Robhead
|
||
2". There are four planets and each starts with a different number.
|
||
|
||
When you've given BRAIN RADIOACTIVITY the information, he'll be real
|
||
happy and dismiss you. That's okay. He's got to go "fix" the
|
||
ROBHEADs. You, on the other hand, have to kill some time till Hour
|
||
125, when you'll be able to see TUBULAR BRAIN 4. (Assuming, of course,
|
||
that it's not already Hour 125. The preceding should have taken you
|
||
about 100 minutes or so, maybe 110.)
|
||
|
||
If you haven't gone to see TUBULAR BRAIN 4 yet, you might want to go
|
||
kill time on his planet. Since you've disintegrated one DUPLICATE, you
|
||
don't have to worry about getting the shakes around Hour 125. So you
|
||
can just land there and hang out, without saying anything, waiting for
|
||
Hour 125. (If you talk too much, he'll tell you to meet him at Hour
|
||
125 and dismiss you).
|
||
|
||
Or you can wander around the galaxy a bit, keeping a careful eye on the
|
||
clock so you make your appointment with the TUBULAR BRAIN at Hour 125.
|
||
If you should go visit SMALL YOKO, be warned that he cannot survive on
|
||
any planet other than BOW-BOW. Sometimes he will suggest that you
|
||
teleport him to your ship. That's fine. But don't teleport him down
|
||
to any other planet. If you do, he dies and you're in BIG trouble.
|
||
When Hour 125 rolls around, go see TUBULAR BRAIN 4. He'll continue
|
||
rattling off numbers, and instruct you to say the code. Say the code
|
||
that MISSILE BRAVE gave you ("Code Friend Friend") and you'll make
|
||
TUBULAR BRAIN 4 pretty happy. While he's in this state of alien
|
||
ecstacy, ask him about the KINGPAKs. After chatting about them, he'll
|
||
give you the coordinate of the KINGPAK planet. Go there.
|
||
|
||
The KINGPAK will want to race you. He'll give you the coordinates of a
|
||
planet to race to, count-down, and then you're off. Don't waste your
|
||
time rushing to beat him. He always wins. Go to the planet specified
|
||
at your own pace. He'll be there. He'll gloat. Then he'll give you
|
||
another set of coordinates. Off he'll race. You take your time.
|
||
|
||
When you get there, you'll meet with TORKA, the Babe of the Galaxy,
|
||
again. She'll ramble on about how the DUPLICATE has trapped you, etc.
|
||
etc. She'll also give you a set of coordinates for the KINGPAK planet.
|
||
Take the coordinates and go there.
|
||
|
||
Once there, you'll see your "friend", the KINGPAK. He'll be humiliated
|
||
about having lost the race. After a bit of chat, he'll go off on a
|
||
rendezvous, giving you the coordinates and telling you to contact him.
|
||
Go to that planet and meet him there.
|
||
|
||
Convince him that you'll teleport him to an unknown planet. He'll go
|
||
along with the idea. Take him to a random empty planet and teleport
|
||
him down. He'll be so pleased that he'll give you a set of
|
||
coordinates.
|
||
|
||
Go to those coordinates. You'll meet DUPLICATE 4. The only problem is
|
||
that DUPLICATE 4 won't let you teleport him to your ship for
|
||
disintegration until you've killed DUPLICATE 1. That's okay.
|
||
|
||
Leave that planet and go to Planet ROBHEAD 4. The ROBHEAD will tell
|
||
you he'll give you the location of a DUPLICATE if you kill the 2 MIGRAX
|
||
planets, REPRODUCTION 14 and REPRODUCTION 128. Do so, then return to
|
||
Planet ROBHEAD 4. (By the way, if you visit each of the four ROBHEAD
|
||
planets, each will instruct you to destroy somebody - the SINOX BRAIN
|
||
RADIOACTIVITY has "fixed" them now, and though they can't move, they
|
||
still want to kill. If you're in the mood to destroy LOTS of planets,
|
||
you can destroy the planets that each ROBHEAD tells you to, but it's
|
||
time-consuming and unnecessary. Destroying the MIGRAX planets will do
|
||
the job and get you the information you need). When you return to
|
||
ROBHEAD 4, the ROBHEAD will give you a set of coordinates. Go there.
|
||
|
||
You'll land on the planet of DUPLICATE 3. DUPLICATE 3 will give you a
|
||
song and dance about an important rendezvous at Hour 320. Ignore him
|
||
(unless you WANT to kill a couple of more hours for some reason).
|
||
Teleport him up and disintegrate him.
|
||
|
||
It's time to go back to see SMALL YOKO. SMALL YOKO knows where
|
||
DUPLICATE 1 is. He'll deny it, and it can be very tedious getting the
|
||
information out of him. It's easier to ask him for the coordinates of
|
||
planet WANT 2. (This is the only out-and-out "cheat" in this walkthru -
|
||
I found out through hard interrogation that SMALL YOKO know where
|
||
DUPLICATE 1 is, went there, disintegrated him, then went to see
|
||
DUPLICATE 4 and, before he agreed to teleport up, he rattled off the
|
||
words WANT 2 and a string of numbers. I went back to SMALL YOKO and
|
||
tried out WANT 2 on him and found out it was the planet DUPLICATE 1 is
|
||
on. Rather than waste your time trying to question the information out
|
||
of SMALL YOKO, use the shortcut. Of course, if you WANT to take more
|
||
time...)
|
||
|
||
After SMALL YOKO gives you the coordinates of WANT 2, go there. You'll
|
||
meet with DUPLICATE 1. He'll try to make a deal. You don't kill him,
|
||
he gives you the coordinates of the other DUPLICATEs. Agree and he'll
|
||
spit out some planet coordinates before agreeing to teleport up where
|
||
you can fry him.
|
||
The first coordinate he'll give you is the planet of TRAUMA, an
|
||
ONDOYANTE like TORKA. The second is one of the four TROMP planets.
|
||
The third is a ROBHEAD planet. And the fourth is the planet you're on
|
||
right now.
|
||
|
||
Closing in on the end now....
|
||
|
||
Teleport DUPLICATE 1 up to the ship and disintegrate him. Then go to
|
||
the planet where DUPLICATE 4 is and teleport him up. He won't be
|
||
happy, but he'll go along with it. If you like, you can now take a
|
||
little side trip and check out TRAUMA. Pretty revolting. She'll curse
|
||
you and insult you and then rush off for a rendezvous. If you follow
|
||
her, she'll turn into a "Babe of the Galaxy" like TORKA and tell you
|
||
how much she likes how and how she wants to kill TORKA. You can also
|
||
check out the TROMPs at the coordinate that DUPLICATE 1 gave you. If
|
||
anything, they're stupider than ANTENNA and a real waste of time.
|
||
|
||
Ultimately, you still have to find DUPLICATE 5. Oddly enough,
|
||
DUPLICATE 1 told you where to find him. Go to the planet where
|
||
DUPLICATE 1 told you to find DUPLICATE 5, and you'll find him there.
|
||
He'll make peace with you, give you the coordinates of TORKAs home
|
||
planet (CORPO) and agree to teleport up. Take him up to the ship,
|
||
disintegrate him, go to CORPO, land, beam TORKA up to your ship, and
|
||
live happily ever after....
|
||
|
||
And that's it....CAPTAIN BLOOD in under three hours.....
