~Titus The Fox
Also see MOKTAR.
Here are some general playing tips and some level guides. I
have gathered this information from a variety of sources so I am
sorry if I repeat myself in any way during the following help.
Many of you may have the European version of this game Les
Advenutres De Moktar this is EXACTLY the same as Titus The Fox,
but with a different character !!! :-
The Story
---------
For those of you who haven't got Titus The Fox (Moktar) yet here
is a breif explanation of the game :-
At the start of the game you will find Titus (Moktar) falling
from the heavens. The aim of the game is to rescue his fair
maiden, this can be accomplished by defeating the enemies on
each of the sixteen levels. Each level contains a long line of
enemies to avoid from Bulldogs, Drunks, Knife Throwers, Mallet
hauling DUSTBINS !! and many more. This is a neat and addictive
platform game similar to the movie game Blues Brothers.
The main objects you need to collect are :-
Padlock - Which gives you the codes for each level, so as you
can return to them at a later date.
Oil Lamp - This gives you bonus energy points (collecting a set
amount will eventually give you an extra life).
Square Things - These are also bonuses and I THINK give you
extra energy ?
General Hints.
--------------
Through out the game you will come across a variety of objects
that can be picked up and either used for weapons or platforms.
To pick these up crouch and fire.
Once an object is in Titus' (Moktars') possession it stay with
him until he decides to throw it or put it down. Throwing it is
simply done by pressing fire and hopefully it will hit the enemy
out cold.
To carry objects through tunnels, drop object at the mouth of
the tunnel, pull down, press fire and when level with object,
keep fire button held down.
When you come across an object always investigate whether you
are able to stand on it or not. If you can, don't waste it by
throwing it at something, it might come in handy for getting
into those higher places.
When you come across the magic carpet, remember than once flying
you slowly lose height. You can easily control the direction of
the carpet whilst in flight.
In early stages of the game you will come across three bees,
which are always a pain and send you in all directions. There
are many ways of getting passed them, but the two easiest
ways are to either crawl under them or pick up the three sets
of bones just before you reach them and kill them.
Underground passages can be found on some of the levels always
look out for them on your travels. On Level 1 try the
garage. On Level 3 try the manhole cover to the right of the
tall building.
Use the spring to bounce up to ledges which are usually out of
reach.
Obviously the spikes are deadly !!! (even with the cheat).
The shopping trolley (pram ?) can be re-used again and again. It
is very useful for getting rid of those long crowds of enemies.
On LEVEL 2, you will come across a shopping trolley even though
it re-usuable as a weapon you really need it to reach the
skateboard !!
Tramps unlike other enemies don't move, but you'll still have
to avoid the things they hurl at you !!
Watch out for the Bulldogs as they shift along and often take
you by surprise, so move fast when you see one !!
Low passages can be passed by simply crouching but this also
makes you vulnerable to attack !!!
Explore everything and everywhere, you'll never know when
you'll come across a secret passage or switch.
This ones obvious, climb ladders to access higher platforms !!
But watch out for quicker and easier ways of getting down,
there normally is one.
Use the blue Balls to help you jump higher, time the jumps onto
the balls right and you will bounce higher again !! But with
two balls it can sometimes get a bit of a pain.
PRACTICE is the real key to success in this game, so try using
the level codes.
If you can't play it, then try another game !!!
LEVEL 1 - The location of the oil lamp is near the beginning
and the secret passage is through the door near the garage.
LEVEL 2 - The location of the oil lamp is at the top of the
wall.
LEVEL 3 - Climbing up the building collecting bonuses on the way
will reveal the magic carpet. Use this to collect the lamp.
LEVEL 4 - On this level the magic lamp is hidden behind some
slab stones which can be reached by using the trampoline. But
to get this room he must first pass through a tunnel of air
ventilation outlets.
