A blast from the past! This dinosaur-themed underground realm features a bunch of giant-jawed Neanderthals and the rock creatures that hate them. Come here after beating the Opera-Singing Dung Heap and paying off the Weasels guarding the entrance for $1000.
Drunken Gits
Remember that stone idol head you just anvil-bashed to get down here? Well, do it again. This time, it will open up the passage beneath the idol. Now, sneak over to the blue-colored area, sticking as close to the walls as possible. If you get too close to the sleeping rock creatures in the center, they?ll awaken, making the next task a hell of a lot more difficult.
At the back of the room (near a door, a bouncer, and a sign that says Rock Solid), there?s a boulder. Get behind it and push it back to where the stone idol head is, again sticking as close to the wall as possible to avoid waking up the enemies. Push the boulder through the passage beneath the idol, and watch it down the hallway, then follow to the Lizard Head Worship area. Ignore everything that?s going on for now, and go to the right side of the Lizard Head and enter the door.
Sacrifice
Follow the path, avoiding the Neanderthal worshippers, until you reach the Giant Egg in the center. Leap on the priest?s tablet, and he?ll hurl you up to the top of the Egg. Sit on the Egg using the B button to hatch it, and a baby purple dinosaur comes out. Now, slowly lead the purple dinosaur down the remainder of the path. He?ll gobble up Neanderthals along the way. He?s also easily distracted, so don?t move too quickly. Enter the door at the end of the path, and you?ll find yourself back in the Lizard Head Worship area, only to the left of the Head instead of the right
Lead the dinosaur to the area where the four Neanderthals are locked in worship and Press B while standing on the Context Sensitive platform in the center. Now, if you look closely, you?ll see two icons on the back wall--an Up Arrow Icon on the left side, and an Explosion Icon on the right. Shoot a chestnut (using the Z button) at the Arrow Icon, then put away your slingshot. Lead the dinosaur up onto the altar that appears, then quickly run away while he?s not looking so he doesn?t follow. Now, get back on the Context Sensitive Platform, Press B, and then shoot the Explosion Icon on the right with your slingshot. If the dinosaur didn?t wander away from the altar, the Giant Lizard Head will open its mouth.
Phlegm
With all the phlegm, the tongue is too slippery to walk up. So step on the priest?s stone tablet, and he?ll hurl you up on top of the Lizard Head. First, run to the back of the Giant Lizard Head and grab the $100 bucks ($1310 total now). Then, jump into the right nostril and Press B to pour pepper inside?leap back up, go to the left nostril, and do the same. The idol will sneeze, and phlegm will clear. Now, walk up the tongue and into the throat.
It may look like a maze inside, but it?s not really. Just pick any path and keep heading forward and you?ll quickly reach the end with no trouble at all. (Wonder why it was so simple to dodge the swinging boogers? Just wait until later in the chapter, boys and girls?). Enter the door at the end of the throat, grab the Ceremonial Headdress from the dead priest, and return to the Chamber of Worship.
Worship
Lead your newfound followers back out into the room you initially started from, where Rock Solid is located. Bring the followers to the sleeping rock creatures outside of Rock Solid, and they?ll help you beat the crap out of them. If your followers die, go back and get more. Once all the rock creatures are dead, the Bouncer will let you inside Rock Solid.
Rock Solid
This is pretty tricky. Head downstairs to the dance floor and find the boulder behind the bar. Push the boulder back up to the entrance and rest it on the switch--that will open the door in the center of the dance floor.
Now it?s time to get loaded. Go back down to the dance floor and stand under the Beer Barrel--press B to get drunk. Now, stumble over to the male dancer closest to the newly opened center door (not too close, or he?ll pummel you for invading his space) and start to urinate on him with the B button. He?ll roll into a ball for protection. Now, using your stream of urine, push him into the center door.
Once he?s through the center door, follow him in, and push him to the right across the catwalk to another switch, and let him rest there holding it down for you. Now, two more doors will open, and you?ll have to piss one more male dancer into each one of those doors. Once you?ve done that, the cage will shatter, and $100 cash will appear. Grab it ($1410 total now), then leave the nightclub the way you came in.
A couple of hints: If you need more Urinary Power, hold down Z and you can achieve much longer distances. If at any time you?re drunken stupor ends and your hangover begins, climb onto center strip in the center of the dance floor--you?ll find a small, barely noticeable Hangover Cure box mounted on the wall. Once you?re headache?s gone, head back to the bar for another drink and give it another go.
Bomb Run
Think it was too easy to run through the Lizard Head?s Halls of Phlegm? Well, try doing it with a big-ass bomb in your hands! Run--do not walk, do not stop--from Rock Solid to the Lizard Head. Once inside, follow the left wall, dodging the boogers with amazing grace and agility, until you emerge on the other side. Then, run to the end of the platform and you?ll throw the bomb down to where the Giant Lizard Egg was--flooding the room with lava. Hop across the floating rock platforms that arise and exit.
Mugged
Three Neanderthal punks on hoverboards (don?t ask) mug you and steal your $1410. Basically, this is a racing level, in which you keep going around the track until you catch up to all three, whack ?em with your frying pan, and take back your stolen cash. It?s pretty straightforward, but the ?random dinosaur? factor (as in, sometimes there?s a giant dinosaur lumbering across your path, and there?s really not a whole lot you can do about it) makes this the most frustrating level in the game--prepare to repeat it a lot.
Here?s a few tips and tricky things to remember?
(1) Always be pressing up on the analog stick, otherwise you won?t catch up to the Bandits. (2) The track layout as you catch up to Bandits One and Two is identical. Once you start chasing the third bandit, however, the last leg of the track changes--a gate closes on the left side path that you usually take, and one on the right opens up. (3) After you emerge from the second tunnel, you?ll want to press A to jump, otherwise you won?t clear the lava pit unless you?ve got a lot of speed. (4) After you KO the third Bandit, the race ain?t over yet. Now you have to exit the level, and that?s actually the toughest part of all. The Right Side path gets re-sealed, and the Left Side path gets reopened, and you have to make a high speed jump off a narrow stone path--and it?s really easy not to make it. Time your jump early for your best shot at making it. You?ll grab another $100 as you pass through, bringing your net worth to $1510.
Other than that?good luck. It?s now in the hands of repetition, practice, and fate.
Raptor Food
First, wander over to the giant red wooden door on the side of the arena. The Green Raptor will emerge and immediately start chasing you?run away! Lead him into a caveman for a quick distracting snack, giving you enough time to get to the center of the arena. Once you?re standing on the Context Sensitive platform, turn around, face the Raptor, and wait for him to get close--Press B, and you?ll whip out a pocket watch and hypnotize him. Remember, you have to be facing him for this to work. Climb aboard the mesmerized dinosaur, then run around eating all the nice little cavemen.
While riding the Raptor, the Z and B buttons do the same thing--bite if you?re standing, charge if you?re running, and consume if you?re holding a victim in your mouth.
After you consume all the harmless cavemen, a wave of six much more dangerous warriors with clubs will emerge. Your goal, once again, is to eat them all. The safest way it to run into the herd and charge to scare them into scattering. Chase one away from the herb, grab him, and then run far away, pausing to eat him once you?re far away from the rest. Keep doing that until they?re all dead.
The next wave is a group of spearmen--they have more range. After that, there?s a wave of spearmen combined with clubmen?But the same ?scatter, isolate, run, and consume? strategy still applies.
Careful, though?if at any time you get knocked off the Raptor, he?s no longer your friend--you?ll have to run back to the center and hypnotize him again, using the same ?face him first? technique. Only now, you?ll have to properly time your charm?Wait until you hear the chime before you press B again to put away your watch and climb aboard. Do it too soon, and the Raptor snaps out of it. Do it too late, and the Raptor snaps out of it and that?s bad news for Conker.
Buga the Knut
After you consume all his soldiers, the Giant Leader of the Coliseum will come down to fight, and he?s pretty much a pushover. Basically, stand perfectly still and let him lumber toward you. When he leaps into the air, jump up where you stand to avoid getting knocked over by the quaking ground ripple from his landing. When he gets in front of you, he?ll lift up his bone, winding up for a big strike--that?s when you press B (or Z) to lunge at him where it hurts most. Then, while he?s stunned and in agony, quickly run around behind him and bite his butt. Repeat the process 3 times, and he?ll admit defeat and run away, leaving a gaping hole in the wall. There?s regenerating chocolate all around the edge of the arena in case you get hurt too much.
Climb on the debris from left from his destructive flight, enter the door, and have a touching moment with Buga?s ex-girlfriend. Go through the door she sets you next to, follow the path through the familiar-looking red area, and grab the $100 ($1600 now) before leaping into the pit and heading all the way back to Chapter Two: Windy, where it all began
