Version History 0.1b First version. Created on July 28, 2001. It's not even near complete, and I'm still working on beating the game myself. 2. Walkthrough *Mission 1* Save the Animals! The Barn After you get past the game's introduction, you will begin the game as Cassie, in the barn, the common meeting place for all the Animorphs. Tobias will 'thought speak' with you and tell you to speak with all the other members. Once you're able to move around, take a look at the note on the refrigerator(?). You can then hit select to see a password. If you happen to lose the game, you can always continue with the last password saw before you lost, as long as the gamepak isn't turned off. Now hit start and look at your morphs. Currently you only have a Dog, but the Dog is one of the best morphs in the first mission. Morph into it, and move to the Mouse. You will then begin an encounter. You should be able to defeat it easily. Though the Mouse is not really useful in this mission, it will at least help you learn a little about fighting, and give you an extra morph. Now leave the barn. Outside You should see another animal to your left. Morph to the dog and get it as a morph. Always morph before an encounter if you can as you may be able to attack first, where otherwise you would get hit after morphing. You should easily gain the Goat as a morph as well. Morph to the dog once again and go behind the barn where another animal should be, fight it, and add it to your list of morphs. By now yopu should have the Dog, the Mouse, the Goat, and the Racoon. Guess it's time to head out into the rest of the world. Before you do however, you may want to morph to the Dog. You will get attacked by an alien when you try to leave the barnyard. Just keep biting him and he should go down before you do. If you do end up getting hurt, you will recieve some food to recover. You will also stay in the Dog morph. You can demorph if you want to, but seeing as how the Dog is faster on land than the human, let's stay the Dog for now. Follow the path until it splits. Go south until it ends in a T. You're distination, the mall, should be to your right. If you decided to look around, the mall looks like a C with the opening facing down. It will also have a sign next to it saying "The Mall." Enter the door closest to the sign after demorphing to enter the mall. As I'm sure you are aware, you will lose the game if you morph in front of other people, or aliens, or even talk to people when morphed so it's best to demorph now. The Mall You should now be in the Mall. Follow the path until the Pet Shop owner tells you about the escaped snake. You will also get a password update. If you are doing well, go ahead and take another look at it and then continue. To the right of the shop owner, you will see five caged animals. If you want, you can try to gain them as morphs, but let's take care of the snake first. Just underneath the last four cages of animals you will find a spot where nobody can see you morph. Morph to the dog, and continue going around the mall. Near the end, you will see the snake. Don't worry about attacking it in front of people, they don't seem to notice. Once you've subdued the snake, return to the pets. Now, morph to the snake, and attack the right monkey, the Chimpanzee. The snake's Venom attack (his only attack) is super effective against him. You may also want to use some defensive moves in order to beat him without taking damage since you don't get food from animal fights. Now, you will have to replace one of your other morphs. Keep the Dog, and Snake, but the other morphs are pretty useless at this point. Make sure you get both monkeys, as they will be needed later. If you didn't get too hurt from the first fight, you may want to use the snake again, but this fight will be a bit harder, so I suggest you look at your password before continuing. If you do end up losing the snake morph Don't Panic! There are two other snakes in town, and you can also fight the same snake again when you re-enter the mall. You should now speak with the shop owner again. You will recieve another new password. If you ever change your morphs, the password will also change. The changes I make note of are ones that allow you to move onto the next part of the mission. Since you are done in the mall, it's time to leave. Outside Again Once outside, you will see the Animorph gang insice the Mall courtyard. Go talk to them, if you wish. They basically tell you to go to the gardens using the Snake, and that you can find food nearby the Garden. Speaking of food, you probably need some to heal from your fight with the animals in the mall. There are two ways to get to the food, the short way, and the long way. The short way is to the right and down, but you will have to fight an alien. Chose the Dog if you choose this path. The long path is left and then all the way around. You will get to the food the same way, but without the fight. If more than one Morph is hurt. Just enter and leave the mall, and go get the food again for each hurt morph. Now you are ready to enter the garden. Chose the snake morph and find the crack in the wall. It should be near the entrance to the mall. Slowly move through the crack until you just fully enter the courtyard. Demorph and then Morph as the Dog. You fight another alien as you take your next step. Keep using Bite, and you will eventually win without losing a morph (hopefully). You will get a key as well from this fight, which is needed to enter the gardens. Go down, get the password update, and finish going around the building. Use the key and enter the Zoo. The Zoo Now you are in the Zoo. Now would probably be a good time to look at your password. There are some pretty difficult morphs you need to get, and you are likely to lose a few in the process. After Tobias tells you about the transmitters, go around as the dog and explore each of the narrow openings to the various enclosed areas in order to clear out the aliens. If you end up still being hurt after a fight, there is some food above the left cluster of three cages. After you fight four aliens, you should morph to the Chimpanzee and attack an Elephant (in an enclosure guarded by one of the aliens). This may take a couple morphs to beat but by using the Chimpanzee's Punch, you should weaken him at least to half before you lose the morph. If not, flee and try to get another Chimpanzee. They are in one of the cages that an alien was gaurding. Then become the Monkey and keep climbing. This should build up your defense as the elephant won't always succeed in it's attack, and when it does, you will likely avoid it. When you feel you have built up enough of a defense, use Bite until the Elephant is yours. Now use the Elephant to fight the Kangaroos (behind yet enother one of the aliens). You should easily win. If you kept the Goat, you could use him to get the Baboon, but that's only if you end up losing the Monkey trying to flee the Elephant. Now become the kangaroo, and find the Wolf which is gaurding the rod. Since it's such a small place, you aren't likely to be able to avoid the fight, but as the Kangaroo, your kicks should easily win the fight. Replace the Kangaroo with the Wolf. With the Elephant, you should be able to get another one if needed. Now grab the pole. Your password will be updated once again. Now go to all of those places that were guarded by the aliens (you may want to tame all the animals, with the exception of the elephants and hippos, first), and deactivate the transmitters. Save the unexplored area for last, the one with the lions. Heal up your morphs if need be by exiting and re-entering the Zoo, but don't forget to defeat all the aliens again with the dog. After taking care of the last transmitter, talk to the man in the Lion den. He'll tell you about a secret lab next to the Zoo, and Tobias will tell you about a Bat cave. You will also get another password update. Get a Lion using the elephant, and then use either the Wolf or Elephant to get the Bat. The Bat's not super strong, but you need him to finish the first mission. Replace the Wolf with the bat since you still need the Dog, however, you could replace the Dog, and use the Wolf in place of the Dog, but the Wolf isn't as good at fighting the Hork-Bajir. You should now (hopefully) have the Dog (or Wolf), Snake, Lion, Elephant, and Bat. If not, you should still be able to get them relatively easy. Now, you are ready to leave the Zoo by it's upper left exit. The Secret Lab After leaving the Zoo by it's second exit, go into the lab as a Dog. There isn't any safe place to Morph in there so you need to Morph outside. Then defeat all of the aliens. After they are defeated, go near the upper right of the room. Tobias will tell you it's dark in there, and that Bats can see in the dark. I guess you know what you need to do now, but before you enter, look at your password. The minigame may take a few tries. For the minigame, stay pretty much near the center of you movable area (basically the first quarter of the screen). Dodging the wires and walls isn't really hard, but the machines the move up and down are the tricky parts. Move forward or back at these points to get the timing right, and then return to the same general spot. You're altitude also helps. You can't move diagonally, so you'll just have to try this a few times. Once you get through the minigame, be ready for a tough fight. You will fight as the bat first, so try and deal as much damage as you can. Then switch to the Snake. Venom seems to work rather well with this fight, but you still might lose the morph. Then become the Lion, and Kick (seems impossible right?). You should at least have weakened him greatly if not having beaten him. If not, don't worry. The Elephant's Punch works pretty good as well. Finally, grab the proccesser, and complete the mission. Morphed Moves Here is a list of all the moves I have seen so far, and their type. I've also put in perenthesis the other type of attack for those attacks the may be both offensive and defenive, however I haven't proof on it yet. I haven't figured out a way to judge effectiveness either since it seems each Morph has a different effectiveness on each attack, but I can list the animals they are found on. Move Move Type Animals Whom Have It. Bite Attack Baboon, Chimpanzee, Dog, Elephant, Lion, Monkey, Racoon, Rat, Wolf Burrow Defend(/Attack?) Goat, Mouse, Snake Camo Defend(/Attack?) Racoon, Trout Claw Attack Baboon, Dog, Goat, Kangaroo, Lion, Mouse, Racoon, Rat, Skunk, Wolf Climb Defend(/Attack?) Monkey Dodge Defend Goat, Kangaroo, Mouse, Seagull Feign Defend(/Attack?) Mouse, Rat, Skunk, Snake Fly Defend(/Attack?) Seagull Gnaw Attack Goat, Skunk, Wolf Kick Attack Dog, Elephant, Goat, Hippo, Kangaroo, Lion, Seagull Punch Attack Chimpanzee, Elephant, Hippo, Kangaroo Scream Attack(/Defend?) Baboon, Chimpanzee, Dog, Hippo, Lion, Monkey, Racoon, Seagull, Wolf Swim Defend Hippo, Rat, Snake, Trout Tailwhip Attack Trout Throw Attack Baboon, Chimpanzee, Elephant, Monkey Venom Attack Skunk, Snake I managed to catch all of these except for the Seagull. It may be weak, but it's flying, and dodging skills make it nearly impossible for me to get, and the fact that it's flying over the water limits the morphs I can use. F.A.Q.
