A Brief Explanation of My FAQ
-----------------------------
First of all, I'll explain the format of the game a little and what I've done in
my FAQ. There are eight sections in the game that are called zones and in each
zone are sub-zones that have three different difficulty levels each. So, I will
be calling these sections "Zones", the sub-zones "Areas", and the difficulty
levels "Levels". In some of the areas, you'll see some tops spinning in the
game play area with pictures on them. When you get these things, which I call
"Power Ups", you can use them to your advantage, or sometimes disadvantage. If
you see "Power Ups" under the area name, that means that the power ups appear in
all levels of that area. Otherwise, you'll just see what "Power Ups" can be
used in each level.
--------
Controls
--------
Well, basically, it's just the D-Pad, or Directional Pad, to move the paddle and
the X button to use the power ups. When you have more than one power up, as in
different types as opposed to amount, and want to switch between them, use the
R1 button.
--------------
On To The Game
--------------
In the areas where you play against the computer, assuming you're trying to
unlock all the areas, you must win with a difference of at least two points
between your score and the computer's score. For example, if you have nine
points and the computer has eight points, you can win if you get one more point.
In the same situation, if the computer scores and ties, then you will have to
play on until either side wins.
======
Zone 1
======

spin to create wind cyclones.

There are green buttons that are placed in between the goals making four goal
areas. Hitting the green button makes the conveyor belt under the paddle go in
the corresponding direction of the arrow in the back of the green button.
Area 2 - Pongball Wizard
Power Ups: Infinite bumping
This is basically like a pinball machine. There are four pillars, one has the
gold bars on it and to start off, one will be glowing. The one that's glowing
is the only one that can be reduced. Keep going at it until you can hit the
gold bars with the ball.
Level 1 - Warm
One ball at a time, three gold bars.
Level 2 - Hotter
Start off with one ball and another ball comes out, kind of like a multi-ball in
pinball, two gold bars.
Level 3 - On Fire
Start off with one ball and the other two come out, not at the same time though.
Once you get all the pillars down, they come back up and you have to do it one
more time before you have access to the gold bar.
Area 3 - Frog Follies
Power Ups: None
You're on a raft with four paddles and frogs and the object is to get the gold
bars without the ball hitting a frog or falling off the raft. There is one
paddle to each side; the paddles on top and bottom control the direction of the
ball in the left/right directions and the paddles on the left and right control
the direction of the ball in the up/down directions.
Level 1 - Fools Gold
Three frogs. Just manuever your way around them to get the three gold bars.
Level 2 - Rickety Raft
Five frogs, one isn't moving, and the raft has some openings. My strategy was
to go to the left where the furthest frog was and then go up. Then to to the
right where the right most paddle was and go down to get the two gold bars.
Level 3 - Hopping Mad
Seven frogs, three aren't moving, and this is just like "Rickety Raft" where
there are openings. The trick is to make get all the non-moving frogs to move.
My strategy was to go towards the frog to the right of the ball and go down.
Then go towards the side of the right most paddle and go up; this should get the
frog that was initially to the right of the ball moving. Wait for it then go
past it, beyond the point where it stopped to get the frog that was initially to
the left of the ball moving. Once you've done that, go down to the last frog
via the first non-moving frog's path and watch its path. Once you've got it
down, to up and tweak the ball to the left to get the gold bar.
======
Zone 6
======
Area 1 - Henhouse Surprise
Power Ups: None
There are four hens above the paddle and four coops behind it, each with a
different color. The object here is to get the different colored eggs laid by
the hens into the coop with the corresponding color, and you go to 12 points.
Level 1 - Egg On Your Face
Just get the different colored eggs into the corresponding coop with the same
color.
Level 2 - Egg-cellent
Just like "Egg On Your Face" only it's a little faster.
Level 3 - Egg-streme
In this level, a board comes down to cover a coop, so you have to keep juggling
that egg until the coop opens up again.
Area 2 - Polar Pivot

You're on a circular platform and there's penguins walking in a circle and the
ball is in the middle of them.
Level 1 - Penguin Parade

water.

Same as "Penguin Parade" except that the penguins move faster and they
ocassionally change direction.
Level 3 - Pick a Penguin
Same as "Penguin Parade" except that they move back towards the center of the
iceberg as you keep hitting or missing them.
======
Zone 7
======

The object is to match the colored balls with the color below the paddle and it
goes to six points. The game area is the left part of the Atari symbol.
