MAXIMUM FORCE secret rooms
Created 05/15/97
Updated 03/06/98
v1.905
Hi, this is Poln. I've decided to update this FAQ, plus some description of
the secret rooms. The original FAQ was written by C. Kormendy, but this FAQ
was so outdated so I've put in a couple of new secrets to this FAQ. This FAQ
however, still don't have Stage 3 secrets until now. He gave me permission
for me to continue.
In the display, they said that this game has 30 secret rooms to find. So far,
I've only found a few.
If you want to contribute or have new stuff to this FAQ, then e-mail me at
haroldr@hotmail.com I need a description of secret stages that I've not
mentioned here.
Visit my URL at http://www.geocities.com/TimesSquare/Arcade/4246
My homepage is *not* that great, just the basics here. My e-mail address at
that site is different, but it's the same.
You can visit the Atari Site for more tidbits of the game and others at

-Minor Fixes
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Start of the Game
----------------
When you first start playing, you can choose of 2 out of the 3 missions. The
3rd mission is labeled "Classified." Technical thing means that it is
confidential/ top secret. This was used in FBI, the military, and sometimes,
law enforcement (they don't use that term often). Anyway, you cannot choose
level 3 until you complete Missions 1 and 2 (in no particular order). After
that, you can choose whatever you wish.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bone Mode
---------
This mode is very short unlike Area 51 when you can be Kronn Warrior.
From the Atari website, you do this in Mission 2, Scene 1 -- Shoot the 6
windows as the camera pans up the outside of the building after the gazebo.
This mode is effective after you went to the Skeleton secret stage. You
only see about eight terrorist skeletons before it will go back to normal.
See Secret Rooms -- Mission 2 on how you can access it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Explanation
------------
Unlike Area 51, when you enter a secret room, you will never run out of
ammo/bullets so you don't have to worry about "RELOAD"ing every time. When
you are in the secret room, one hit of an object is worth 100 points. So if
you hit 10 objects, you will get 1000 points. The only exceptions is star
shooting, poolside scene, and memory game (see description of stages for
scoring).
Secret Rooms
------------
Mission 1, Scene 1: Bachelor Pad
After the section with the boat, hit the three square white cans. Two near
the middle of the screen in front of the brown crate and one in the lower
right corner. You *must* shoot in this order or you will not be able to go
to a secret room. Shoot the first one on the left, then shoot the one in the
lower right hand corner. Then the third one next to the first one that you
shoot already.
Mission 1, Scene 2: Sharks
Need Help on this one.
I'm not 100% sure about this one, but it seems like you have to hit
"everything" while under water, including the stuff hidden behind the grass by
the entrance of the pipe that you eventually swim into.
I'm curious as to what happens when you hit one of the occasional swimmers,
you don't seem to lose any lives. Maybe you lose points, or are they just a
distraction?
Mission 1, Scene 2: Poolside scene
Shoot all nine of the permanent objects in the decompression chamber.
What happens is that in the underwater room where you shoot the depth charges,
you stick your head above water for a moment and there's a bunch of people
sunbathing. After a few moments, you duck back underwater and when you
surface this time, it's the normal game.
Mission 1, Scene 2: Pain In The Glass
Hit all the scuba tanks on the beach. Some near the guy with the metal
detector and some near the kneeling woman.
Mission 1, Scene 2: Falling Heads
Still on the beach, hit the two water towers.
Mission 1, Scene 3: Balloons
After the door opens, as you go down stairs, shoot all 6 lights on the sides.
This one is very tricky for 1 Player. It might help if 2 players do this.
Mission 1, Scene 3: Chicken Fry
Hit all the fire extinguishers.
Mission 1, Scene 3: Carnival
You are on a raised catwalk sort of thing. It has a left turn in it and then
it goes through a short tunnel to get to where the missile launchers are.
There is a civilian in a lab coat hiding behind the barrel right where the
catwalk makes it's turn. Hit the two lights on the wall on your right, beyond
the civilian.
Mission 1, Scene 3: Star Shooting
Hit all the nuclear warheads right before the part where the two missile
launchers start shooting at you.
Mission 2, Scene 1: Skeleton
This was from J C (tripleeyes@yahoo.com)
As the truck runs towards the middle of the screen, There is a brown
building on the right side with a bunch of windows. Shoot as many as you
can (maybe all of them). Best if you have a shot gun. You will
eventually get closer to them towards the gazebo and have another chance
to shoot them.
Mission 2, Scene 1: Carnival
Shoot all the posters on the gazebo.
Mission 2, Scene 1: Bachelor Pad
Shoot the three lights on the wall of the bank. They are on the right hand
side of the building (facing as you are about to walk into the building). You
get a couple of opportunities to hit these.
Mission 2, Scene 2: Pain In The Glass
Shoot all the flower pots sitting along the top of the bank teller counter.
Mission 2, Scene 2: Lollibot
After you are at the door with the security camera on the right side, the
camera pans to the hallway with 2 pictures in the backside, shoot them.
(I'll need at better explanation on this. If you can help, e-mail me).
Mission 2, Scene 3: Chicken Fry
Once you are in the elevator, shoot all the buttons (one you press for what
floor you want).
Mission 2, Scene 3: Star Shooting
If you successfully shoot down the helicopter, you will be able to access it.
Mission 2, Scene 3: Falling Heads
Need help in this one. Shoot the Heating systems, satellite, or something.
I've only seen it once.
Mission 2, Scene 3: Star Shooting
If you successfully shoot down the helicopter, you will be able to access it.
Mission 3, Scene 1: Bachelor Pad
Shoot the 6 papers attached to the bulletin board. You need to do it fast.
Helpful for 2 players.
Mission 3, Scene 1: Pain in the Glass
As you approach the port-a-pottie, there are green glass bottles (few on
the bottom, few on the top). Shoot them.
Mission 3, Scene 1: Carnival
Shoot all 11 stacked tires just before the plane crash. One of the tires
is hidden in the crate. I'm not sure if you have to shoot the white sign
that goes along with the tires.
Mission 3, Scene 1: Lollibot
As the jeep going to crash on you, shoot the front side of the jeep (main,
plus 2 fog lights (happy faces). You'll need to do it fast.
Mission 3, Scene 1: Chicken Fry
Hard to explain this one. Need help on this one. See diagram below.
After you ride through the wilderness, there is a row of lights straight
ahead on the building.
x = light(s)
======================================================================
x x x x x
Shoot the 3rd and 4th x

You come in this door to M3, scene 2.
Mission 3, Scene 2: Pain in the Glass
You're in the lab (can't describe that well) as you see a row of glass,
cups, etc. on the table. Shoot them (located towards the left).
Mission 3, Scene 2: Carnival
As the garage door opens, the jeep comes towards you, shoot the front side,
and the headlights.
Mission 3, Scene 2: Memory Game
I don't know where to shoot specifically, if you can help with this one,
please tell me. As you go down and see the tanker trucks, I think that
you shoot windows, boxes, everything that you see before you go to the
port-a-pottie area.
Mission 3, Scene 2: Star Shooting
Need help on this one. You're in the sewer. Shoot all light fixtures, I
think.
If you can add or explain better on secret stages, e-mail me at
haroldr@hotmail.com
If you have new secret stages or other info, e-mail me as well.
Description of the Secret Stages
--------------------------------
Sharks -- Mission 1, Scene 2 ONLY
If done correctly, before you enter the decompression chamber, a scubawomen
swims by with sharks moving around. Shoot the sharks.
Poolside Scene -- Mission 1, Scene 2 ONLY
You'll see women in bathing suits. Shoot the umbrella, chairs, etc. as
the people try to go undercover. You won't be awarded bonus points, just
damage.
Skeleton a.k.a "Bone Daddy" -- Mission 2, Scene 1 ONLY
I've haven't seen this myself, from what have someone told me, you shoot
the skeleton.
Carnival
In this one, you shoot targets on top of the screen as well as ducks moving
by. The ducks moves very fast so you need to shoot quick, and accurate.
Chicken Fry
In this one, you see a sign says "Chicken Fry." It's nighttime as the chickens
fly (thrown) towards the sign. Shoot them.
Pain in the Glass
This is one of the easy secret stages. Shoot all the cups, glasses, etc..
Star Shooting
Similar to shooting practice or what you see when you go to the amusement
center. You try to shoot the red star out. The number starts at 999 and it
goes down as you try to shoot the red out in the time allowed. If you done
it successfully, you will be awarded 5000 bonus points. If you do not get the
red out in time, you will get NO Bonus points.
One of the ways to do it is as you shoot the star, hold the trigger. You will
never run out of ammo/bullets. 2nd, try to shoot the outside edge of the
star (like tracing a shape when you are kids), then work your way towards
the middle. [I'll need a better explanation on it].
The Lollibot
It's similar to target practice, you try to shoot lollipops around.
Bachelor Pad a.k.a. Roach Room
Shoot the Roaches as they move along.
Falling Heads
The background is the same as what you see in Mission 2, scene 1, which is
buildings with broken windows in it. Shoot the heads as they fall from the
top. Heads are usually people who made this game possible (programmers,
designers, tech, etc).
Balloons -- Mission 1, scene 3 ONLY
The door opens and you see a women in a black dress. The wheel (wood)
turns around. The balloons are around her. Shoot the balloons. The
same as Sharks, you won't lose a life if you accidently hit the women.
Memory Game -- Mission 3, scene 2 ONLY
The door is room 207. As the door opens, you will reveal cards.
Shoot the appropiate cards, to reval what's behind it. If you get a
matching pair, you will be awarded 1 point.
