Hydra Castle Labyrinth



Hydra Castle Labyrinth is more enjoyable if you know what you're getting into. This is a mini-guide to get you started.

First: Controls.



Not so complicated, and you can change them with the IniKaeru program that comes free with each free download of HCL. Even set it up for gamepads!

Second: The items and what they do.



What, you want to know where they are? Tough shit. You get that bell, the items will start coming to you like you were a hot supermodel.

Third: The first dungeon location



You'll need to find a key first to open it, but there's only one key to find, so that's the one you need.

Fourth: The first boss, a Chicken.



You don't beat this egghead, you ain't getting nowhere. The chicken chokes up a key once he's fried, which opens up the second dungeon. The same pattern follows for successive bosses, but this one's the key to the rest... of the keys.

Fifth: If you're still having trouble, give your old pal, Deceased Crab, some video views. He'll help you out something good.

But if you just use the videos without any exploration of your own, then that's a shameful display.
