A new episode means a fresh start. You'll have full health and no items, and you'll secretly have an opportunity to continue from the start of your current page once if you die. Be careful, as even returning enemies will be more difficult than they were in the previous levels, blocking more often. In the first panel, grab Roadkill and immediately set him down again to have him uncover a Super Fist for you. Head to the next panel and a new enemy.

Styx

Styx has a stick. He'll hit you with it, block with it, shoot high or low fireballs from it, or use it as a pogo stick, depending on his mood. When he climbs on top of his stick, hit him with an uppercut to bring him back down to Earth. After you beat him, Mortus will draw another Styx for you to beat up. Take either of these guys out with your Super Fist. You'll need the inventory space soon. Finally, head to the right to the next panel.

Unleash Roadkill here to find some TNT. You'll need it soon. Use jump kicks to destroy the top crate and only the top crate, as the others will explode. There's some iced tea inside, so grab it and leave.

Be careful with this hole. It will spawn an unlimited number of Kreeps if you don't do something about it. Head to the left, jump on top of the stone, push it to the right the same way you pushed the crate on the first page, and use it to cover the hole. Take out the remaining Kreeps. Now it's time to deal with this barrier. These take a lot of damage and will drain a lot of your health if you just hit them normally. Luckily, you have that hidden TNT from earlier. If you don't have it, maybe now is one of the few good times to use the secret airplane attack by holding the attack button for a few seconds. If you go back and destroy the stone covering the hole before you leave, you'll find a knife inside, but it's not worth it. Now it's up to you if you want to go left or right. Left is easier if you know what to do.

Left Path

Don't get too close to this barrier. Punch it down and beware the fireballs. You can duck and roll under them, but you'll need to stand up to push the explosive crates over to the left. Push them as far as they'll go, up against the skull, which is also the source of the fire. The trick here is to stand as far away from the crates as you can while still being able to hit them with sweep kicks. If you do it just right, like in the screenshot, they'll explode and destroy the skull without harming you. Head down.

Just a Crawler? No, take it out, and then destroy the wall to the right to find a secret room with some yummy power ups, including a Super Fist, an iced tea, and a knife. Take what you want and head down.

Down Path

Hit the pile of snow on the left a few times to reveal another stone. Push it to the right, under the spike, to have them destroy each other. Deal with Strigil here and move on. This next room holds a question mark item. This will turn into a different item when you pick it up, but there's a chance it will just explode and damage you a great deal. Whether you want to take the risk is up to you. Either way, head to the left.

Paths Converge

A voice will talk at you for way too long. It's tournament time! You'll have to fight a series of enemies. Keep in mind that if you use a Super Fist to kill them, they'll just regenerate. If you even have a Super Fist, you'll want to save it for later, anyway. First fight two Strigils, then Gravis, then Styx, and then a new enemy.

Mongoria

Cammy, er, I mean, Mongoria has a braid with a hook on the end that she'll use to swing around and attack you. She has a mean split kick, too. Of course, she's a girl, and girls are afraid of mice, so unleash Roadkill to scare her right off the page. Seriously. After this, the tournament is won, and you'll find yourself on the bottom row of panels.

Roadkill will find a grenade for you. Pick it up and throw it at Strigil. Time it right so that he won't explode it prematurely with a fireball. Quickly hop up onto the ledge next to him, because it won't necessarily kill him. Time for the most dangerous part of the level.

Hanging from a rope over a deadly pit while Kreeps pick at you and Styx fires fireballs at a breakable panel border that's blocking your path. That's a lot to deal with. If you have a Super Fist, use it now to defeat Styx and the Kreeps. The Kreeps will respawn so destroy the border as quickly as possible and make your way to the ledge. If you don't have a super fist, do your best to avoid the Kreeps while kicking at the border. Hold up and right to tuck your legs up and hope that Styx won't poke hard enough to knock you down before you reach him. He'll probably jump at you like an idiot, killing himself. Clear out all seven of the Kreeps that spawn to finish this page. Phew!
