Before you star reading this, you should realise that I haven't written
out full walkthroughs for this game's levels. I have instead written
about where the weapons are and gave pointers on where you should go.
There is also help for the hard parts.

2. Level Guides
***************
Level 1 - The Hub Ruins
The main thing about this level is to get used to the controls. On this
level you should upgrade you knife to (1) bow and arrow, (2) pistol and
(3) shotgun. You should try and collect all the keys to help you later
on. There are three keys in this level. The first is in the caves beyond
the Chronoscepter. The second is on a floating platform in the lava
pools cave. The third is at the top of one of the ruined pyramids. At
the start just stab the bad guys until you collect some arrows. To
change weapons I think it is by pressing select and a direction on the
D-pad. Keep alert for frontal attacks and weapons fired at you from
above. Nearly all of the health bonuses and life forces are in the
caves.
Level 2 - The Jungle
Make full use of the shotgun that you collect at the start. The better
auto-shotgun is high up and you get it by following the platforms and
teleport gates. Go in to the first cave and head on through to the
teleport, gradually making you way up the platforms to the right. In the
houses on the third platform level you will find life forces, bullets,
arrows and the first key. There is also a health bonus in the water
there - which you will probably need. After that there is a leaping test
to the temple where you must operate two switches to get the second key,
then head left up on the cliffs, collect the auto-shotgun. The third key
is on the way back down to the tunnels. Like on Level 1 you can't get
the Chronoscepter without a move powerful weapon, so return here later
to get it. For now head back to the hub.
Level 3 - Ancient City
In this level you will have to activate switches to open the teleport
gates. In this level you will also not be able to get to Chronoscepter
piece until after you have better weaponry. In the first hut hit the
switch so you can operate teleport gates later on. When you emerge on
the rooftops leap left, firing as you go, and teleport gate you go
through will teleport you to the top of a series of walls. The first key
is on the second wall on a lower platform on the right. Back out on the
rooftops there are soldiers firing from the hut roof so take care. Drop
down left, enter the hut and dive into the pool there. The key here is
on the platform to the very right of the pool and the pool contains
plenty of critters that want you not to get it, so ready your knife and
carve them all up. There is also a health bonus at the bottom if you
need it and more life bonuses too. To get the third key you will need
more firepower. Go to the topmost roof and through the transporter.
Collect the gun at the end of the passage and press the switch to
activate the last gate. Come back out and through the gate on the roof
to the left. The key is well guarded and you will find it at the end of
the passage to the right. From there go back to the hub and on to level
4.
Level 4 - The Ruins
This level has more insects than a can of fly spray can kill. There are
also the usual dudes as well. Perfecting your jumping is a must. It is
all too easy to die by miss timing a jump or being bitten by a mozzie.
In this level you will get the grenade launcher so you can go back and
get the Chronoscepter pieces. At the start you will find the grenade
launcher by going left, climbing up and leaping left to the end. There
are dinos and mozzies on the way so if you need health, there is some
just below the grenade launcher. Back to the start and head right. You
can't reach the platforms so keep going right, climb up, collect the gun
and then leap back whilst running to get to the teleport gate. There are
pools in the caves and heaps of mozzies, so head right, collect the
health bonus and life forces before going left and through the first
pool. There are even more insects in the next area. Go left and through
the cave door to find the first key, but enter firing because it is well
protected. Back out and go right to the end cave door, swim through
another pool to a teleport gate and you'll find yourself back outside.
High up are more health bonuses, and if you go right, firing as you go,
you will safely pass through another teleport gate. This area contains
the next key (near the bottom right) and an elevating shaft. At the top
of the shaft on the left you will find more guns, but take care as you
leap across. Head out from the top right platform, and leap across the
next platforms to a gate at the end, near to the final key. The
Chronoscepter piece is behind a wall in the caves, near one of the
pools. Once you have collected it you can return to the Hub and go back
and get the first three pieces.
Level 5 - The Catacombs
In the Catacombs you will have to avoid falling rocks, crawl under
swinging axes. Also, when you are about to go into really tight places
switch to you knife so you can kill the rats you meet. To the right of
the entrance is a weapon, grab it then travel all the way left. Jump and
travel right until you reach a blocked switch, there use your grenade
launcher to shatter the block and activate the swtich. Jump right and go
to the active teleport gate. Standing under the blocks and firing up
will destroy the blocks, but if you can't destroy them, try using a
different gun. There is a gealth point at the top. Pass the inactive
teleport gate and travel to the right to activate the teleporter. Crawl
your way through the next section, using you knife to kill the rats, and
avoid the falling rocks in the open areas until the game lets you
through. Using the teleporter will bring you to a much needed health
point and a switch to jump on. Dode yet more rocks on your way to the
next teleporter, go through it and you'll find yourself at the check
point. You should be able to see the first key from here. Collect it and
travel up to the right to the next teleporter, keeping low to avoid the
swinging axes as you go. Destroy the blocks, swapping power weapons as
the need arises. Teleport throught the two more gates, picking up the
second key, and travel right to re-enter the first gate. Climb up the
rocks and by-pass the next gate, then go down and left, through the
teleporter and travel across the bridge, avoiding the axes by crawling.
You'll find the Chronoscepter piece at the far end. Go down to the left
to yet another gate and you'll find the third key. Retrace you steps to
exit the level and return to the Hub.
Level 6 - Treetop Village ***UNDER CONSTRUCTION***
You will meet yet more annoying mozzies on this level. You should have
brought along insect repellent, but guns and knifes will have to do.
Level 7 - Lost Land
Rising and falling platforms and others that fall from under your feet
are hazards here. Jump quickly across platforms that stand still or you
will fall with them. While crossing moving platforms the tricks is to
jump from on when it reaches its highest point to land on the next as it
is dropping. If you turn left as you leave the Hub you'll find a ledge
that can't reach, so go right until you reach a bridge, killing guards
and dinos on the way. There's a monstrous flower guarding the end of the
bridge; kill it and cross the planks. Travel upwards to a teleporter, go
through it and to the left you'll find the check point. Jump left acros
the moving platforms, and when you've reached the end lower yourself
down the cliff. To the right is a weapon, drop down to get it. To the
left is platform, jump across it to get the first ket. Travel all the
way to the right again, passing the teleporter, to a door, and there's a
robot to defeat. Remember to collect some life force on the way. Enter
the door and travel all the way to the right to grab the second key.
Retrace your steps through the door and travel right to the teleporter,
Go left and down through a door. Going left here will get you some life
force and then go all the way to the right to collect the Chronoscepter
piece. Blast a hole with the grenade launcher to reach it. Back through
the door and lower youself down the ledge to drop to another door.
Travel to the left to a teleporter, then right to the next one and you'l
find yourself back at the Hub.
Level 8 - Final Confrontation
Ready you weapons as you go through the Hub gate because there is a
guard waiting and you are fired on as soon as you start. If you have had
trouble so far, then this level may be too much! Every few steps there
is opposition to kill. Jumping and firing can kill guards up high.
Travel along to teleporter and you will find yourself in the temple.
Some life force can be collected along the way and the weapons you
gather will be very useful. Making your way through the temple is pretty
straightforward, as long as you don't run out of ammo. Just keep going
and then you will fight the BIGGEST dinosaur of them all. Just mow this
dino with everything you've got! After defeating this colossal fossil it
is plain sailing until you reach the lair of the Campaigner. Here at
last the Chronoscepter comes into use. Shot with that and then with any
other weapons you have ammo left for.
Well there you go, I hope you kick the Campaigner's ass so hard he will
be s#$%ing out his mouth!!!
