Joypad support is not enabled by default so you must go into options from the ZWEIPET game launch bar to enable it. The following are controls: Keyboard: 1 - 4 : Quick access submenu: Status, Item, Map, Option While in submenu, game action is paused. Cursors : Movement Enter : Action / attack F1 - F12: Quick use/equip item slot Ctrl : Skip dialogue ESC x2 : Switch character Mouse: Left click : Movement Right click: Action / attack Joypad: D-pad : Movement Button1: Action / attack Button2: Cancel Button3: Menu I recommend using a joypad for best control. Keyboard is helpful to use items quickly, and mouse is useful for item management. III. Walkthrough ---------------- Table of Contents ----------------- 01. Opening 02. Hiporita Hill 03.

Opening: ------------ - Start a new game, and name your characters, defaults are Pipiro for the girl and Pockle for the guy. Choose between a cat or a dog for a pet - the cat is named Tama and the dog is named Pochi. - Watch the nice introduction, and go through the opening dialogues. [ Side explanation: Your House ] Here's what you can do at your house: - Talk to the other character to save your game. - Look at the diary on the table. It has records of events you've seen and gives hints for progressing the story through greyed events. - Store money in the safe. The reason to do this is if you die, you lose a lot of your money. Of course, if you die you can also opt to restore from a saved game instead to keep your money-. - Store items into the chest. Items that are gathered by the pet on the desktop also appear here. - Go to sleep. Restores HP. - Use Pipiro's CD player to change the music. - Leave your pet at home. I see no reason why you should do this though. The pet picks up coins, attacks enemies, and allows you to do the highest charge attack. [ End of explanation ] - Go to the church and talk to Sister Raspberry. - Follow the mysterious man into Aplyes temple. - Explore the town and get the following 6 items: From Brick - Item Dictionary From Aria - Character Notebook (Chara Note) From Kite - Monster Dictionary From Paul - Score Book Behind Pshuke's residence - Renamer In Pshuke's residence behind the windows - Pet Renamer - NEW GAME PLUS ONLY: Explore the lower-right forest area to get a best collection CD. You can put it in Pipiro's CD player to change the music. (New game plus is available after beating the game and continuing from the clear save data.) - Note that in ZWEI!!, characters will mill around the town so they may not always be at the same place. Shopkeepers will usually be at the same place though. If you want to talk to them instead of purchase from them, you have to talk to them behind the counter. - You start off with 1000 penny, purchase from the weapon shop the "Push glove" (costs 300 penny, -1 to all stats). You will need it later so keep it in your inventory. Buy something else with the rest of your money or save it - up to you. [ Side explanation: Item management ] Your inventory consists of your backpack and 12 quick use slots, which are accessible with the F1 - F12 keys. Equipped items must be placed into the quick use slots - there are seven types of items you may equip: Magic stone, Hat, Armor, Arm/Glove, Boots, Amulet/Necklace, Scroll. You can increase the capacity of your backpack by an "Item Sack," Use it to increase your capacity by 10. [ End of explanation ] 02. Hiporita Hill: ------------------ Hiporita Hill is a little southeast from Dapne Desert. Check out the well, then go into the tent and get the rope, then go back to the well and rescue the pet from the well. You now have your pet! When you run ZWEI!! next time, enable the desktop pet monitor and let your pet get items for you. If you don't supervise your pet's actions, it will choose randomly. Also, now is a good time to change the partner/pet AI - pick "Ike Ike" (Go Go) - the 2nd option, to make them more aggressive. 03. Kapaya Forest 1, LV 0: -------------------------- Nothing important here - you will do something here later. Get some candy from the enemies and get used to combat here. Note that only Pockle can move heavy objects like the large mushroom in the middle of the level. To switch characters, left click on the portrait on the bottom-left, or press ESC twice. Note that the LV plate is a suggestion for your level - as long as your character is about that LV, you should handle the dungeon fine. [ Side explanation: EXP and food ] ZWEI!! is unique in that EXP can only be gained by eating food. In addition to restoring HP, food also gives you EXP. Nothing else in the game gives you EXP, so food is a very valuable commodity. If you are able to get 10 of any food type, bring it to the Inn in Puck Village and click by the register. Pick the first choice, and the second choice to transform 10 food items into a higher level food item, worth more EXP. [ End of explanation ] 04. Pavel Garden 1, LV 1: ------------------------- There's a buff enemy in the middle of the level guarding a gate - be careful not to get killed by it. At the end of the level you get your first Item Sack. You meet Treasure Hunters Natalie and Tom and they leave you a teleport item - "Adventure's Wing." These are useful - always keep at least a few in your inventory (they can be bought from the standing man in Puck village). They allow you to teleport to any sublevel of a dungeon, or back to the village. Any dungeon has at most 3 sublevels - the entrance, midway, and before the dungeon boss. !Caution appears before a boss. 05. Cropp Cave 1, LV 2: ----------------------- Again, only Pockle can move that big shroom in the middle of the level. After clearing, learn attack skill LV1 charge attack. Hopefully you have a teleport item, use it to escape the dungeon once you clear it. [ Side explanation: Charge Attacks ] Charge attacks can be accumulated through increasing your combo meter - the higher the combo you get, the higher the level of the charge attack accumulated. - LV1 looks like a yellow smiley. - LV2 looks like a red smiley with spikes. - LV3 looks like two stars side by side. "Shiipuraton" LV3 charge attack will vary depending on which character you are. - LV4 looks like a purple smiley with lots of spikes. "Suriipuraton" LV4 charge attack requires you to have your pet. Note that on bosses, 3rd and 4th level charge attacks will be ineffectual because the boss will autoheal, however 1st and 2nd level charge attacks are fine. However, if 3rd/4th level charge attack is able to do more than 99999 damage, the excess damage WILL be carried over. This is especially useful if you can manage to do a critical hit with a LV3 charge - the resulting damage will be in excess of 200000 if done properly. 06. Kapaya Forest 1, LV 3: -------------------------- To open the way to LV 3, just step on the plate with the feet on it. This plate appears in other places as well, and should be done similarly. In the middle of the level you'll notice a big grey block with a sun on top of it. You need to equip the Push Glove and be Pockle in order to move it around. Do the same thing when this block appears elsewhere. You'll also notice a green pillar blocking a passageway - don't worry about getting past it yet, you need to use the opposite magic type to remove those pillars (the pillar is Green/Wind, you need Brown/Thunder to remove it). Obviously, you don't have this magic yet. At the end meet Treasure Hunters Natalie and Tom again. 07. Kapaya Forest 2, LV 4: -------------------------- Use the Push Glove to open the way to LV4 dungeon. There will be a 3x3 lever puzzle in the middle of the level - the button to the upper-right resets the puzzle. The levers being arranged like this: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 To open the left gate, the sequence is 1,7,5,6,9,3. To open the bottom gate, hit lever 6. The above assumes the levers are in the original state (hit the button to the upper left to restore original state). Note that solving these type of puzzles is easier with Pipiro, since she doesn't move when firing. QUEST ITEMS: Wind Flower, Lure (fish) 08. Kapaya Forest 3, BOSS: -------------------------- Meet Colbet, the Cat Magician Summoner! He will summon your first boss. After beating the boss, collect the Earth Holy Statue. 09. Puck Village: ----------------- Return the Earth Holy Statue to the proper Altar (lower-left) in Aplyes temple. Then, head to the east area of the town (there is a split in the mountain where you can pass through) to see an event with Miles crashing his plane. 10. Toripoca Lake: ------------------ Talk to Jiyunoo. You will give him the Lure. He will give you the item "Hook Rope." Remember those posts you saw in Kapaya Forest 2, LV 4? You can use the Hook Rope to cross gaps with those posts. You can get a Tamago (Egg) if you go back to that part. 11. Kapaya Forest 2, LV 5: -------------------------- Return to the 2nd sublevel of Kayapa Forest using a teleport item. Use the Push Glove to open the way to the LV 5 dungeon. By the way, you might be wondering what the use is for those "Pull Top" items and maybe Soda Cans you keep collecting from pots and chests. You will need them later to create Aluminum Equipment so don't throw them away. After you beat the dungeon, you reach the Sylph Forest. 12. Kapaya Forest 1, LV 0: -------------------------- Save the Sylph Ripple from the post in the middle of the dungeon. 13. Kapaya Forest, Sylph Forest: -------------------------------- You can teleport directly to Sylph Forest from the Kapaya Forest submenu. Talk to Enpurufu to receive the "Key of Water". 14. Pavel Garden 2, LV 5: ------------------------- Use the "Key of Water" (1st option) to open the locked gate. On the 2nd level of this dungeon, kill all the enemies surrounding the munchkin on the post to open the gate. If you kill the munchkin on the post, the gate will not open. At the end of the dungeon, receive the Magic Stone Treasure Jewel of Arctic. Equip it to allow Pipiro to use Water Magic! Water Magic shoots a cloud of bubbles directly in front, can destroy Fire (Red) Magic Pillars, and does extra damage to Fire based enemies. 15. Kenopi Volcano 1, LV 4: --------------------------- Use Water Magic to destroy the Red Fire Pillar blocking your way. At the end of the dungeon, learn the attack skill LV2 charge attack (obtain by 10 hit combo). 16. Kenopi Volcano 1, LV 6: --------------------------- Nothing interesting in this dungeon. At the end, meet the Treasure Hunters Natalie and Tom again, and get the item "Sandbag". 17. Dapne Desert, Oasis Gallery LV 7 (optional): ------------------------------------------------ Go to the outcropping into the oasis in Dapne Desert, and use the Sandbag (right-click). A passageway will appear. This dungeon is OPTIONAL but you will want to go through it to get the scroll at the end. If you are not confident about your boss fighting ability, you may want to save this dungeon for a later time, perhaps after you finish all the Kenopi Volcano dungeons. At the end you fight the Giant Fire Dragon, and after you beat him you will get the Scroll of Fire which shoots a 4-way fire stream from your character when equipped. 18. Kenopi Volcano 2, LV 7: --------------------------- Teleport to midway through the Volcano and use the Hook Rope to cross to the LV 7 dungeon. Note that some of the enemies may ABSORB water magic, so in that case change to Pockle and use melee attacks OR deequip Water Magic so that your magic is neutral element. Also, if you have the fire scroll equipped it may also heal fire-based enemies, so be careful. Sometimes in the level when you pop a balloon some spikes will fall from the sky - you have to follow the path of the spikes and move faster than the spikes in order to get past a gate. QUEST ITEMS: Fire flower, Pull Top x3 19. Kenopi Volcano 3, BOSS: --------------------------- Beat the Phoenix to receive the Water Holy Statue. 20. Kenopi Volcano 2, LV 8: --------------------------- On the last floor where you see a LED marked "Zony," the top LED signifies the target number and the bottom LED signifies your current status. In this case, the numbers refer to number of barrels destroyed, but in other places it could refer to something else. Make both numbers match 6 in order to open the gate. QUEST ITEMS: Pull Top x3, Empty Soda Can 21. Kenopi Volcano, Salamander's Nest: -------------------------------------- Talk to Salamander Volkan. 22. Puck Village: ----------------- Return the Water Holy Statue to the middle right altar in Aplyes temple. Go to your home and change your character to Pockle, then look at the book in your room to receive the Picture Book. 23. Kenopi Volcano, Salamander's Nest: -------------------------------------- Talk to Salamander Volkan. Exchange the Picture Book for Key of Wind! 24. Toripoca Lake: ------------------ Talk to Joodo to get Nameko Mushrooms. Use them to add a LV2 charge attack. 25. Puck Village, Pshuke's Residence LV 9: ------------------------------------------ Talk to Pshuke to get a Magnet. Go to the basement (the stairs to the basement is now clear) and use the Magnet to move the statues from your path. On the 2nd floor, do NOT open the chest to the right next to the sign. On the 3rd floor, you must put something into all 4 open chests to unlock the gate in the middle. After you beat the dungeon, don't relax just yet because 5 maids will ambush you in the large room afterwards - make sure you are ready for them. The maids have an attack that can dis- orient you, making you move in the opposite direction you want to go. At the end of the dungeon, receive an Item Sack. NEW GAME PLUS ONLY: Instead of receiving an Item Sack, get a amulet that protects you from all elemental attacks. 26. Kapaya Forest 2, LV 8: -------------------------- Use the Key of Wind to open the way to the LV 8 dungeon. At the end of the dungeon, receive Magic Stone Wind Magic! Wind magic shoots in a circle around you, is strong against Earth enemies, can destroy Brown Earth Pillars. 27. Cropp Cave 1, LV 9: ----------------------- Use Wind Magic to destory the Brown Earth Pillars. The large rock in the dungeon can be destroyed by a bomb. When you see a candle by a gate, light the candle using the 4-way from the Fire Scroll OR use Pipiro's neutral shot (no magic stone equipped). Meet Natalie & Tom again. 28. Kapaya Forest 1, LV10: -------------------------- Use Wind Magic to destroy the Brown Earth Pillar. At the end of the dungeon, learn attack skill LV3 charge attack, "Shiipuraton!" The attack is different depending on which character you are, Pipiro or Pockle. 29. Dapne Desert: ----------------- Buy some Dynamite from the shopkeeper in the desert. 5 or so is good. Buy a LOT of extra bombs as well from Puck Village. 10 just in case. 30. Cropp Cave 2, LV10: ----------------------- Use the Dynamite to destroy the obstruction to the LV10 dungeon. During the dungeon, use a bomb to destroy the large rocks and use dynamite to destroy the hexagonal shaped rocks. If you run out of bombs, dynamite will also do in a pinch, but use bombs when you can since they are cheaper. If you didn't buy enough bombs and dynamite, you might run out in the middle of the dungeon, and that is not fun since you have to backtrack. 31. Cropp Cave, Village of Gnome: --------------------------------- Talk to one of the gnomes to receive a Battery. Talk to Siegfried. 32. Dapne Desert: ----------------- Talk to Pyotr at the right end of the screen. 33. Puck Village, Hospital: --------------------------- Talk to Peacharm to get a bottle of "Beautiful Blue Year"? (美青年) 34. Cropp Cave, Village of Gnome: --------------------------------- Talk to Siegfried to exchange the "Beautiful Blue Year" for a Key of Fire! 35. Kenopi Volcano 2, LV12: --------------------------- Use the Key of Fire to open the way to LV12 dungeon. For the Zony LED, the condition is # of enemies killed. After beating this dungeon, receive Magic Stone Fire Magic! Shoots in a straight line, strong against water based enemies, and destroys Blue Water Pillars. 36. Pavel Garden 2, LV11: ------------------------- Use the Battery you obtained from the Village of Gnome to enter the LV11 dungeon. To solve the button puzzle, press them down in the following order: Top, Upper-right, Lower-right, Lower-left, Upper-Right, Bottom. You will know if you are getting the right order if the button stays down when you hit it. If it doesn't, you have to start over from the top. QUEST ITEMS: Flower of Water 37. Pavel Garden 3, BOSS: ------------------------- Colbet will summon Leviathan. Be careful, because Leviathan has a special attack where the entire screen is covered with a damaging wave. Hide behind a stone blockade to prevent getting damaged. After beating the boss, receive the Fire Holy Statue! 38. Pavel Garden 2, LV12: ------------------------- Use the Battery to get to LV12 dungeon entrance. QUEST ITEMS: Tuning Fork, Pull Top x2, Empty Soda Can 39. Pavel Garden, Undine Land: ------------------------------ Talk to Lapis to get a Poster. You can also play the minigame "Zwei Shooting" at the arcade for 100P. There's only one level to the minigame. It plays a little like R-Type: your "force" is the propeller, hit button 2 to launch it off. It absorbs bullets, and can also attach to your rear. There are three powerups available: Speed, Missile, and Laser. Laser has three levels of powerup: single star, dual stars, and single star with laser. If you manage to beat the level without dying, you get a special bonus. You also get a ship bonus for amount of ships left after winning. 40. Puck Village: ----------------- Talk to Curaiirai (in the Inn behind the counter) to give her the Poster. Also, take this opportunity to drop off the Fire Holy Statue at the temple. 41. Toripoca Lake: Underpass in Toripoca LV14 (optional): --------------------------------------------------------- Go to the little pole to the upper-left of the lake (you have to go behind the forest area to get to it) and use the Tuning Fork next to it. This opens up a passageway by the lilies. After beating the dungeon, fight the Giant Water Dragon. After beating him, receive the Water Scroll. Equip it to absorb HP from enemies. 42. Pavel Garden 1, LV13: ------------------------- Use Fire Magic to destroy the Blue Water Pillar blocking the LV13 dungeon. For the series of foot plates, press the button to see the pattern, and follow the same pattern with the same timing to open the gate. For the first Zony LED, the # is how many times the chest is opened, and the second, the # is how many times the gate you just came through opened. After beating the dungeon, obtain LV4 charge attack "Suriipuraton" and... a sandwich. 43. Pavel Garden, Undine Land: ------------------------------ Talk to Lapis again to get a Key of Earth! 44. Cropp Cave 2, LV15: ----------------------- Use the Key of Earth to unlock the door. To light the candles in the dungeon, use neutral shot or Fire magic. Water magic will put out the candles, but I see no reason why you need to do this. After beating the dungeon, receive Magic Stone Earth (Thunder) Magic! Shoots out a lightning bolt which causes an electric field to stay and damage enemies. Strong against Wind based enemies, and can destroy Green Wind Pillars. 45. Cropp Cave 2, LV16: ----------------------- QUEST ITEMS: Flower of Earth 46. Cropp Cave 3, BOSS: ----------------------- Watch out for the tail of the boss and the fire breath. Otherwise, I have no other pointers for you. After beating the boss, watch your first FMV cutscene, showing the side door to Aplyes Temple being opened. Collect the Wind Holy Statue. 47. Puck Village: ----------------- Upon arriving the village, a event occurs. Return the Wind Holy Statue to the temple. 48. Cropp Cave, Village of Gnome: --------------------------------- Gather all the Pull Tops and Empty Soda Cans and bring them to Michael by the forge. He will convert them into Alumi (Aluminum) Equipment! They are pretty good equipment so I suggest equipping them. Every piece gives +2 to your defense. The equipment you will get are: 30P - Alumi Wrist 50P - Alumi Boots 70P - Alumi Helm 85P - Alumi Suit 100P - Alumi Guard 49. Feather of Rebirth (optional): ---------------------------------- 0) Buy LOTS of Adventure's Wings (Teleport item). 1) Undine Land : Talk to Gurana to get a "Pairlook" (ペアルック) A "Pairlook" in Japanese is matching outfits. 2) Puck Village: Talk to Riizahha (リーザッハ) and exchange Pairlook for Wedding Bouquet. 3) Sylph Forest: Talk to Ripple to exchange Wedding Bouquet for Fishing Pole. 4) Puck Village: Talk to Brick to exchange Fishing Pole for Baseball Set. 5) Salamander's Nest: Talk to Volkan to exchange Baseball Set for Fan. 6) Supiri Ancient Labyrinth: Talk to Joodo to exchange Fan for Sake. 7) Village of Gnome: Talk to Rock to exchange Sake for Bowl of Fish? 8) Puck Village: Talk to Yuudeito (ユーディト) to exchange Bowl of Fish? for Megane (Glasses). 9) Undine Land : Talk to Rubini to exchange Megane for Slippers. 10) Puck Village: Talk to Puramu (east area of town, past mountain split, near tree) to exchange Slippers for Feather of Rebirth(?) When you drop this item on the floor, if you die you will be resurrected. Note that if you do this sequence at a later time, the locations of some of the characters may change. 50. Dapne Desert: ----------------- Rejinefu has a new storefront and some new items, among them... a complete set of Santa equipment o_O 51. Hiporita Hill: ------------------ Miles is trying to construct a new plane, but needs a Propeller and an Engine. Off you go to retrieve said items... 52. Kapaya Forest 1, LV0: ------------------------- At the end of the dungeon you will see a Green Wind Pillar, destroy it using Earth Magic. The theme of this dungeon is counting, but if you don't feel like counting, the answers for each floor in order are 20, 15, 24. NEW GAME PLUS ONLY: On the 3rd floor past the "24 gate," after killing the 2nd wave of munchkins you will have to fight a super powered version of the munchkin which is VERY powerful and has attacks that can kill you in ONE hit. However you are allowed to use your charge attacks. I recommend staying clear from this area, because unless you are very powerful you will probably get killed. Should you want to take this guy on, I suggest you stock up on LV4 charge mushrooms and use the LV4 charge attack repeatedly. Use the LV4 charge about 15-20 times should take care of him. When the super munchkin is at about 1/8 life, it will use a desperation attack that hits the entire screen and does 75 damage about 4 times. So, when he does this, use your LV4 charge attack and be prepared to heal yourself repeatedly. If you manage to beat him, he will drop Bromide #1: Pipiro. After beating the dungeon (well - meeting a dead end), you should have both the Engine and the Propeller. 53. Kapaya Forest 1, LV3 (optional): ------------------------------------ Now that you have Earth magic, you can destroy the Earth Pillar blocking a passageway in the middle to get an armor worth 5000P. 54. Hiporita Hill: ------------------ What would these guys ever do without you? They gladly accept the Engine and the Propeller. The plane is still not done yet, though. 55. Aplyes Temple 1, LV16: -------------------------- Go back to Puck Village and go to the side door to the Temple that was opened during the FMV sequence. You'll meet Paul there, and a teleporter that will take you above into the clouds... 56. Aplyes Temple 2, LV17: -------------------------- After beating this dungeon, receive the Magic Stone Light Magic! Shoots in a forward 3-way pattern, strong against Dark. 57. Aplyes Temple 2, LV18: -------------------------- Nothing interesting here... 58. Aplyes Temple 3, BOSS: -------------------------- This boss can only be damaged by physical attacks, so use Pockle and make sure to exhaust any stored magic you might have absorbed. After defeating the boss, see the second FMV where the stone face wall disappears. Collect the Light Holy Statue. 59. Unknown Passage: -------------------- Go through the passageway that was opened during the FMV. If you look closely, there is an Item Sack hidden in the upper-left corner. 60. Espina Temple of Dark 1, LV18: ---------------------------------- To deal with the black hole on the 2nd floor, light all 4 candles on each corner. I suggest using Light Magic on this dungeon (obviously). Light Magic can also light the candles for you. Tom & Natalie again. 61. Espina Temple of Dark 2, LV19: ---------------------------------- At the end of the dungeon, receive Magic Stone Dark Magic! Shoots in 4-way cross pattern twice (2nd delayed), strong against Light. 62. Espina Temple of Dark 2, LV20: ---------------------------------- Again, to deal with the black hole, light 4 candles. The candles are a little harder to get to this time, however. QUEST ITEMS: Ladder 63. Espina Temple of Dark 3, BOSS: ---------------------------------- Relatively easy boss - use Light Magic. After beating him, see your 3rd FMV showing the floating island appearing above Selp Ruins. The mysterious man gives you the final Dark Holy Statue and you automatically take the unconscious woman to the Inn in Puck Village. 64. Puck Village: ----------------- Drop off the Light and Dark Holy Statues in the Temple, talk to Pshuke, and buy some charge attack mushrooms from Joodo if you want. 65. Hiporita Hill (Inside Ancient Cedar LV21): ---------------------------------------------- See the plane completed and receive an unlimited teleporter item from Miles as a reward. Now you don't have to keep buying teleporter items! Also, you can use the Item "Ladder" here by the opening in the tree to enter the Ancient Cedar. Defeat the Giant Wind Dragon at the end to get the Wind Scroll, which increases your chance for critical hit. 66. Supiri Ancient Labyrinth (optional): ---------------------------------------- If you want to take a crack at it, try it. There are three courses. Each course has treasure boxes with money in them and one box with a special item - the layout of the treasure is random, and you have a limited amount of time to explore each labyrinth. Easy - 1000P - Special Item "Clock" Hard - 10000P - Special Item "Calculator" Special - 50000P - Special Item "Calendar" After beating all three, pay again for "Special" and notice a new passageway in front of the stairs (do not go down the stairs). Beat the boss at the end (weak against Light Magic) to get Game #1: "Mona Mona Lovely Mona-Kun Puzzle Game," launchable from ZWEIPET. The goal of the game seems to be to move "Mona" up to the top. After winning an item, you can enable its function from the ZWEIPET app. 67. Puck Village: ----------------- By now the woman should have woken up, and introduces herself as the Light Goddess "Tiara El Valence." The mysterious man is known as "Paradise." 68. Selp Ruins: --------------- Tiara automatically takes you here. Put the 6 Magic Stones into each pillar. Afterwards, Tiara collapses from the strain. The man that kept powering up your charge attack finally introduces himself as Sairas. After finishing talking, recollect your Magic Stones and cross the bridge to the teleporter gate. 69. Mythical Land Selpentina 1, LV20: ------------------------------------- This is the final dungeon area. Be careful, the enemies are accordingly tough. Keep your HP high and be wary of enemies that absorb elemental magic - try using neutral magic or Pockle to defeat them. Also, don't worry about areas you can't seem to get to at first using the rotating angel platforms - sometimes the floors will crack and you will fall to a lower level. 70. Mythical Land Selpentina 2, LV21: ------------------------------------- Higher and higher you go - take care not to get killed! 71. Mythical Land Selpentina 3, LV28 (optional): ------------------------------------------------ This is what I consider the "secret dungeon," since it's hard to notice. Before reaching the last boss you will notice going through a long fenced corridor. Right before the corridor ends, the fence widens just a little bit - wide enough for you to go through on the right side. Go through. Hint: try hugging the right fence moving diagonally down-right. NEW GAME PLUS ONLY: Go around to the bottom-left area to see a treasure chest containing a bag worth 10000000P, the maximum P allowed. Go behind the tree to see the pathway to dungeon LV28. The only thing in this dungeon is a "super-munchkin," although it is nowhere near as powerful as the super-munchkin in Kapaya Forest LV0. Use about 2 or 3 LV4 charge attacks and it should go down easily. After beating it, collect your booty: a necklace that gives +2 to all stats and grants status immunity (same effect as anti-status potion), and the final key to unlock the highest level dungeons. 72. Cropp Cave 1, LV28 (optional): ---------------------------------- At the end of the dungeon, collect your booty, an armguard that raises all stats by 2. 73. Kenopi Volcano 1, LV29 (optional): -------------------------------------- At the end of the dungeon, fight a rather difficult boss. Its most dangerous attack is when it begins to rear into the air, then jumps up and stomps down into a circle of fire. If you get caught in that, you get disoriented and move in opposite directions, which is very dangerous to your health. When the boss trys to charge you, simply run tight circles around him to avoid getting mowed over. After defeating the boss, collect your booty, a helm that gives +2 to all stats. 74. Pavel Garden 1, LV31 (optional): ------------------------------------ For the boss of this area, make sure Dark Magic and Water Scroll equipped. Before fighting the boss (on the same screen when it says !Caution), drink an anti-status potion to avoid getting frozen (these can be bought from the various villages in the dungeons). Then, simply run tight circles around the boss - you will kill it eventually. After defeating the boss, collect your booty, boots that give +2 to all stats. 75. Tower of Tomb, LV31 (optional): ----------------------------------- Go to Craproot Sanctuary and put down the 4 elemental flowers. A passageway will appear. Pick up the 4 elemental flowers and proceed into the dungeon, called Tower of Tomb. Be warned, this dungeon is very tough. It seems your maximum LV is also 30, so I'm not sure how you advance past LV30 anyway. After reaching LV30, the "next EXP" status is just ????????. After reaching the top, fight the Giant Earth Dragon. After a long battle, collect your booty, the Earth Scroll, which causes a large rock to encircle you, doing earth element damage. Personally, I'd stick to the Water Scroll. 76. Kapaya Forest 1, LV33 (optional): ------------------------------------- At the end, fight Beelzebub. His attacks like "Big Bang" and the sonic waves will cause tremendous damage, and sometimes your attacks will only do 1-2 damage for some reason. Your best hope for survival is to use the LV3 charge attack with critical - the excess damage over 99999 will be carried over. Thanks to Zepy for the tip. After beating Beelzebub, collect your booty, armor that gives +2 to all stats. 77. LV20 dungeons (optional): ----------------------------- If you want to challenge them, now is the time to try and challenge the LV20 dungeons of all 4 of the main elemental dungeon areas. You must be able to beat *four* loops of a single dungeon, getting the bronze, silver, gold, and platinum medals for each successive loop. The dungeons are randomly generated and contain lots of high powered monsters that can often kill you in 1 or 2 hits. My suggestion is to bring lots of LV3 charge mushrooms for the bosses, and some LV4 charge mushrooms to kill the monsters in the dungeon part. And don't forget to bring food, and lots of it. Water scroll is best since it heals you. You *cannot* leave the dungeon once in it, if you hope to beat the dungeon. If you leave the dungeon midway, next time you enter it you will have to start over from loop 1 and fight the bosses all over again. If you manage to beat any of the LV20 dungeons, you will obtain various books that are apparently little stories (they all start off going "むかしむかし" which is like "once upon a time" in English). Thanks to "Nobody Texture" for this info. 78. Mythical Land Selpentina 3, FINAL BOSS: ------------------------------------------- This is your last chance to get ready and do everything you want to do. In any case, when you are ready, forge ahead, talking to a wounded Paradise first. See a FMV showing you getting sucked into the tree and into some other space. Fight the two flying bosses - I suggest using Dark Magic for this one. Once they have been defeated, see another FMV of the giant eye collapsing, then finally you begin to fight the true final boss, armed with Rainbow Magic. Munchkin devils will appear and drop +50HP potions to help. As long as you keep your HPs up, this battle should be no problem. Take care when the boss swoops you from behind, he can do about 50 damage in one swipe. 79. Epilogue: ------------- You are left only with the four statistics books you got from the very beginning of the game - you can go through them if you wish. Talk to everyone if you so desire - you can go anywhere except the dungeons. Of special interest is Colbet hanging around Pshuke's place. When you are ready to finish up, go to Selp Ruins to trigger the ending. Enjoy the cute ending animation, and when the credits finish, you have the option of saving your clear data. When you load from that clear data, you begin NEW GAME PLUS, which has the following differences: - You keep all your experience and levels from the previous game. - You keep all your penny (money) from the previous game. - The automaps are already filled from what you've explored previously. - You have a much larger variety of pets to choose from, including the Mona mascot from Lord Monarch. - The weapon store now sells a very very expensive item that boosts all your stats by 2. However, the accessory sold in Dapne Desert does the same thing, plus granting elemental protection and tripling HP recovery. - And some other tidbits that were labeled "NEW GAME PLUS ONLY" in the FAQ: - Best collection CD in Puck Village. - Receive an amulet in Pshuke's Residence instead of an Item Sack. - Supermunchkin guarding Bromide #1 (Pipiro) in Kapaya Forest LV0. - 10000000P treasure chest in Mythical Land Selpentina 3. Fin. IV. Pet Monitor Guide --------------------- When you first run the ZWEI application, it first loads the ZWEIPET app, from where you can enable the Pet Monitor (you must select a save slot for which to associate the Pet's actions). This little minigame will let you obtain some unique items and is the only way to increase your pet LV. The first choice is always the positive choice - "go in," "open chest," "beat up enemy pet," "beg for food," "go north," etc. If you do not highlight a choice when prompted, the pet will choose on its own randomly. If you leave the pet monitor on for a long period of time without doing anything, the ZWEIPET application will shut down automatically. Sometimes, a pet will be guarding a treasure - if you fight the pet, you will win if you have the corresponding elemental pet collar (thanks to Atest for this info). Otherwise, you will get beaten up -_-. If you win, the treasure will be some type of pet food, which will increase the LV of your pet when used. I am not sure what the maximum LV of your pet is. Otherwise, treasure will be one of the following: - Bomb. - Teleporter Item (Adventure's Wing). - Pull tops or Empty Soda Cans. (Just enough to get 100 points) - Random food item (highest food level type is 3). These items will be placed into the treasure box at home the next time you load your game, assuming you setup the pet monitor to the correct savedata. If you don't have your pet yet in the savegame, the pet will just stay at home. If you do this, sometimes the pet will look like it's tripping on drugs and the background will rotate quickly! Use a monospaced font to view the maps properly.
