CONTROLLING UNCLE SCROOGE
The controls for Uncle Scrooge are simple, but true mastery will take both practice and skill.
Pushing RIGHT and LEFT on the controller moves Uncle Scrooge right and left This works even when he is jumping or falling. REMEMBER THIS! It is a very important feature. UP and DOWN are used for climbing up and down ropes, chains and vines. Any time the pad is pushed UP and Uncle Scrooge is over a rope, chain, or other climbing surface, he will immediately start climbing.
The A button is used for jumping. There are two types of Jumps that Uncle Scrooge can do. The first is a regular jump. The longer you hold down the A button, the higher he can Jump If Uncle Scrooge is holding still on a vine or chain when you try to jump, he will fall. Pushing UP while he is falling will stop the fall.
The second type of jump that Uncle Scrooge can do is the Pogo-jump. This is a way he can travel over dangerous ground, and repel certain enemies. This move can be tricky To Pogo-jump, press the control pad down, press the A button, (the Jump button), and while Uncle Scrooge is in midair, press the B button. You MUST press the B button before he lands, or the Pogo:jump will not work. Uncle Scrooge will continue to pogo as long as you hold down the B button. You can use the control pad to direct Uncle Scrooge while he is Pogo-jumping It is sometimes possible to make him swing his cane while he’s jumping.
The Pogo-jump is one of the ways that Uncle Scrooge can open treasure chests and remove rocks from his path. The other way is by « swinging » his cane To make Uncle Scrooge swing his cane at an object push RIGHT or LEFT on the control pad, (depending on which side the object is on), and press the B button. If there is no treasure within the object Uncle Scrooge will just shake with the impact of the swing.
The Start button is used for pausing the game and reviewing the special items that Uncle Scrooge picked up through his adventure.
One final note: When Uncle Scrooge is damaged, he is invulnerable for a second or two. Take advantage of this time to get past tough opponents.
