PEC

ARDY LIGHT FOOT

This young adventurer is criss-crossing the Prismland
everyday with his friend PEC.

PEC is ARDY’s best friend. He often has arguments with
Ardy, but when he is needed. PEC is always ready to
sacrifice himself in order to save his friend ARDY.

The adventures start when Ardy finds a slate on which a
poem is written. It states that if someone can collect 7 pieces
of the rainbow, one of his dreams will be realized.

Game Controls Summary

Y button:

• Throw PEC

When ARDY is accompanied by PEC, if you push the Y
button, ARDY will make PEC attack his enemies. When PEC
is thrown by ARDY, PEC will eat small enemies, catch rocks
and bombs with his mouth and then hand them to ARDY.

• Pick up and put down items

When ARDY is standing close to items, such as rocks or
bombs, you can make him pick up these items by pushing
the Y button. Push the same button once more to make
him put these items down.

If you push the Y button when ARDY is running with an item
in his hands, he will throw it away.

B button:

• Jump: ARDY jumps with the B button. The longer you
press it, the higher ARDY will jump.

• Stand on the tail: If you press B a second time during
ARDY's jump and keep it pressed, ARDY will land on his

tail. He can move in this position. Press the DOWN
ARROW button to put him back on his feet.

• Jump with the tail: If the B button is released when
ARDY is on his tail, he will use his tail to jump higher than

on them with his tail (some tough enemies are not

and obey him. This story begins when the Senior reads the

troubles, and will steal the “GREEN piece of the rainbow”
from the forest.

GILSON the pirate

He protects the treasure of the ruins in the South Ocean from

ITEMS

TREASURE BOXES

You can find these boxes in several places on the map. They
contain one of the following items:

PEC: This will revive PEC

1 UP: This will give to Ardy one more life.

STAR CHIP: This will give you 10 more stars. With 100
stars, you have 1 UP.

DRUG: This will transform Ardy. A second bottle of this

drug will transform him back into his normal
conditons.

OTHER AVAILABLE ITEMS:

Portable item. Can be used for various purposes, such as a
step in order to reach high places, where Ardy cannot reach
even with the high jumps with his tail.

BOMB

To be used to destroy floors or walls. You must set it very
quickly, otherwise Ardy will be damaged by its explosion.
Sometimes it can be found in a treasure box.

KEY

To be used to open locked doors.

MIRROR

To be used to reflect the deadly beams generated by some
bosses.

Among these items, some give PEC a strange power. When PEC
changes his color, shake him in order to check this power.

HINTS

1 Ardy can increase his tail-jumping power by puffing up
PEC in the air.

2 The switch in the room where Ardy fights against Catry
can also be pushed by PEC. Besides, Catry is always
aiming at Ardy. So if you try to lure her before going to
step on the switch, you can beat her easily!

3 You can also easily beat the scary big boss by using your
hiding power. Try to invent your own attack method.

4 The ghost that appears from the lamp will not be
damaged by any attack from Ardy, but he does have his
weak point. What can you find in this room besides this
ghost ?

Rocks will stop and throw back arrows, so don’t forget to
use them.

Ardy will land and stand on his tail if you keep the B
button pressed continuously during his jump. Try this if
you cannot make Ardy jump with his tail. But be careful,
don’t jump where Ardy may hurt his head!

7 The attacks of Visconty are really very dangerous.
Though, if you observe him carefully, you will beable to
foresee his next move!

Go, Ardy! Do your best for the peace ofPrismland !
