From: Mike Stoler Newsgroups: rec.games.video.nintendo Subject: Tetrisphere - SPOILER - Puzzle solutions (20-50) and other Codes Date: Sat, 30 Aug 1997 08:01:03 -0700 Do you want the solutions to the Tetrisphere puzzles? For some reason (no reason?) I've been saving the solutions the the puzzles I've solved beyond #19. But there really is no reason why you would need these solutions. There is a cheat that gives you access to any level you want. If you're stuck on a puzzle, just enter the code, skip that puzzle, and record or remember the moves you do to solve puzzles beyond the one you're stuck on. (If you solve use the code to skip a level, it won't remember that you beat that level when you don't have the code on. That's why you have to record the solutions to the puzzles you solve this way.) Personally, I was stuck on #27 for days and #50 for days. In both cases I am glad I figured them out for myself instead of getting help on the net. Don't read my solutions to the puzzles. ------------------------------------- To get to any level on Tetrisphere, do the following: 1. Go to the screen where you enter a new name 2. Hit R, C(right), and C(down) at the same time. This changes the numbers to wierd things. 3. Enter the name that is the bottom line of wierd characters, each one once. It is 5 characters long. 4. You can now skip to any level -------------------------------------- All the Codes taken from www.n64.com: (29-Aug-97) > The following codes are all entered at the > "NEW NAME" entry screen: > > At the "NEW NAME" screen press L > (the button on top of the controller), > C-RIGHT, and C-DOWN to bring up > the secret characters. > Enter the name "CREDITS" to view the > credits. > > Enter the name "LINES" to play the > hidden game. > > Enter the name "G(alien head)MEBOY" > for hidden tunes. > > Enter the name > "(saturn)(spaceship)(rocket)(heart)(skull)" > for access to all levels. > > Enter the name "VORTEX" for ???. > > Contributed by: Curt Mac ------------------------------------------ Some more SPOILER space.
