New Zeland Story - boss 1-4
How do you kill boss at the end of level 1-4?
I was trying coverdisks (Amiga Format issue 1) and couldn't get past that boss?! New Zealand Story* |

I think it has to be the hardest game ever! I remember playing it many years ago and remembering it being a very hard game to play - things haven't changed! I managed to get to stage 2-3 a number of times before I couldn't get any further. I wanted to complete the game so I *had* to use the unlimited lives crack built in.
Going through the levels I realised it must be pratically impossible to complete the game without the unlimited lives. Some of the levels are killers! Any level in 5-x is a nightmare. The top prize for level-hardness has to be the very last round, 5-4 I think. There aren't many enemies but it's a level of skill and I was getting very annoyed that when you die you have to start from the begining again! argh! I think after many, many (many) attempts I managed to get to the end where I could kill the walrus. Eat Bomb! After all the effort the kiwi had been though, I was disapointed in the ending.... |

sometimes games have different endings on different systems but I'm not sure if that fits to NZS. |

I agree, the game is extremly hard. What the hell were they thinkin' when they created that game?!
There is a lot of Amiga games that have disapointing outro... |

disapointing outro yes.
bloody good game yes. difficult? i dont think so these days... since i can complete it... but maybe thats just years of on/off playing? level 5-4 is made much easier by the lack of a time-limit. if you havent enough lives, you can just keep killing baddies, get an extra life (50000 points is it?) then try to make your way to the end. if you lose a life, just kill baddies until you get another one and try again. the ice is a bit fiddly though! |

agreed. It's definately a help. i completed it with the CD32 Competiton Pro pad. I've got pretty far (level 5-1) on emulation, using a PS2 pad... but it aint the same! |
