Freebie on the front of YS for all platforming addicts.

Here is the complete solution for Moley Christmas:

Room 1 : Gremlin HQ

Go up to the left-hand side of the screen and collect the disk. Come down the ladder and go right, picking up all the objects on the way and avoiding the creepies. Go to the place where the ladder goes up to the top of the screen. Climb this ladder and go right, avoiding the monster. Get the final object and drop off the end of the platform and wait for the gateway to the next room to fall on you. Okay? That's room one...

Room 2: The Mastering Plant

Go right, avoiding the spool which is rolling towards you. Jump on the chairs and get the first object. Climb the ladder to the first platform and go left until you're between the two control boxes. When the wire which you are standing on starts to flash, go left and up and up and jump onto the conveyor belt. Drop off the edge and wait for the spool to fall on you. There goes another room...

Room 3: The Duplication Plant

You should now be carrying the spool from the last room. Go up the ladder, avoiding the crusher. Go to the black box and STOP!!! Very quickly, go right, then left, and the spool should appear on the black box. You must not touch this, as it will kill you. Drop down, go right to the platform just above the tape dispenser and wait. When the eight tapes are piled up, drop down and walk into them. And so ends this easy room!

Room 4: The M1

You should now be carrying the tapes. Go right until you arrive at the bottom of the screen. Go towards the little car that has the teeth. Slowly walk about half-way into it. The teeth should chomp, and as soon as they've done this, walk past the car into the offices. Easy so far!?

Room 5: The Offices

Okay, now go collecting everything, avoiding the PacMan Monster. When the flying cassette at the top is left on the screen, go up and right. Get the last object and walk onto the pile of tapes. Right? That's another room done - and you should still have all your lives left!

Room 6: The Newsagents

Collect one tape and take it across the road to the shop. Do this until all the tapes are gone. And that's it! You've done it. Well done.

Cheat:

Monty can do strange things! In Moley Christmas, Room one, Monty can fly and walk through the air. Do as follows: Jump onto the first block and position Monty in between the two tape cables and press down. If nothing happens, reposition Monty and try again until he starts to move down. When he reaches the bottom of the screen, press jump twice and Monty will dig - his little bum will appear at the top of the screen. Anything more than his legs and bum means you've boobed, but if all is well, move Monty to the left of the screen and he'll drop down, and walk to the cove on the far right of the screen. Keep pressing down and fire and Monty will appear at the top of the screen, this time normal again. So Monty can dig, fly and walk through the air. Oh, by the way, while in dig/fly mode, Monty can't collect any objects.
