Manual
Game Guide
Extracted from the original game manual
In this side-scrolling platformer, players control Mr. Nutz, a heroic squirrel on a mission to stop a villainous Yeti from plunging the Earth into a permanent deep freeze. To save the world, players must navigate six diverse and hazardous levels, ranging from a murky secret passage to a molten volcano underpass and a deceptive carnival. Along the way, players defeat the Yeti's quirky minions by throwing acorns and performing tail whips before facing off against the giant boss himself.
Story
The Story
Yeah, that's right, I'm Mr. Nutz, and this Yeti character really frosts my tail! He's tryin' to make the whole world supercool – and I don't mean that in a good way, pal. He's got the Earth set on "Deep Freeze" and there's nobody else to tell him to chill out! This guy's got six levels full of totally uncool guys ready to knock my buck teeth out!
Look, I know what you're thinkin' – this guy Nutz, he's just a squirrel – what can he do? Just watch me, bud, I'm no ordinary chipmunk chump. I may look like your average rodent in sneakers, but I'm a Super Squirrel! I can peg Yeti's flunkies with acorns or tag 'em with my tail. By the time I get to the Yeti, he's gonna be feeling some major heat!
So hang on, bud – we're in for a nut-tossin' good time!
Stage Three
You made it into the cottage, but the door's slammed shut and now you can't get out. Your only escape is through a hidden passage leading to the Volcano Underpass. Okay, so it doesn't sound like the sort of place you'd want to visit, but who said saving the world was going to be easy?
Unfortunately, the secret passage looks (and smells) like your garbage disposal, so you'll have to get through some unspeakable gunk to make any progress.
Stage Four
Molten lava flows like a river, noxious gases burn your lungs. Welcome to the Volcano Underpass.
You have to make your way through this stifling labyrinth before you can breathe fresh air again, but there's a gruesome looking thing the size of a football field guarding the exit who believes that breathing is a luxury you can do without.
Stage Five
Down these mean streets a squirrel must walk. And are these streets mean.
They don't look dangerous - it's carnival time and jugglers and clowns are everywhere, but everything is not what it seems. Some of these guys are so funny you might never stop laughing.
Stage Six
The world has never been colder but the action's never been hotter as you close in on the frozen kingdom of the Yeti himself - he's huge, he's hungry and he's having a bad hair day.
This is the final showdown. Win it and you go down in history.
How to Play
Getting Started
Make sure that the power to your Super NES is switched off. Insert the Game Pak, then switch the power on.
If you are playing for the first time, just press the START button to start. If you wait a demonstration will run. Press any button to begin the game.
Options Screen
When you start the game, you will be presented with the Options Screen. To make your selections, move the cursor using the Control Pad and press START.
•
PLAYERS: You may select your number of lives from 1-6.
•
ENERGY: You may select the number of energy points from 1-5 to make the game easier or harder.
Scoring
You score by picking up the coins that are scattered about every stage of the game. Each of these coins is worth 50 points.
At each stage, if you're successful in collecting all the available coins, you will have achieved a perfect score. When you get a perfect score, Mr. Nutz gets another life.
The coins can be anywhere. Keep your eyes open for hidden passages and make sure to check every spot above and below. In addition, you will win between 50 and 100 points whenever you defeat one of Mr. Nutz's enemies.
Stage Clear
At the end of each level, the percentage and number of coins collected will be shown, along with the following display:
•
TIME BONUS: Time remaining x 50 points
•
COIN BONUS: Number of Coins collected x 100 points
•
SKILL BONUS: Number x 500 points
•
TOTAL COINS: The total number of coins collected
•
SCORE: Total Bonus points collected
Stage One
It's dark, and you're lost in a forest with a bunch of nasties. Every shadow is a fearsome foe, and every sound could signal your doom. Fight through the darkness, battle past the creepies, and then take on the crawlies.
There's more than one way out, but in the dark, none of them are obvious. Whichever way you turn, you're bound to bump into Mr. Spider, the eight-legged terror that rules the wood and must be destroyed.
Stage Two
The morning light reveals trees so high they seem to disappear into the clouds. You have to climb to the top.
Once you're up there, ignore the dizzy spells, take a leap of faith, and spring from branch to branch. You may find a potion that will help you get to a clearing where you'll find a cottage. All that remains is to get inside, and a key might be a good idea at this point.
