1. An Introduction to Lil Wizard
___________________________
Welcome to my first faq! So far, this is the only one for lil
wizzerd (as my friend here says it). My faq dives into the game and
includes some philosophical insight (cough, cough
quiet boy).
Anyhow, hopefully Ill enlighten you just a little bit and isnt that
the point?
Warning! Unfortunately, this Faq does contain spoilers so be
forewarned.
Without further ado, onto the FAQ! Please set your sense of
humour to high and maturity to low before proceeding. Other wise my
hard, hard work will be for nothing.

2. So you want to graduate wizard school this year
____________________________
Character guide
Here is the character guide. There are 8 playable characters I
total, one of them (Zark) being the hidden character. As I go through
each person, Ill tell you the characters moves and a few things to
know about them.
Note: All moves are with the character facing right
Lagen
Lagen is a very peculiar character. He appears to be an
aeroplane mechanic AND a wizard student. His staff is really a kind
of enchanted wrench that he can teleport into the ground to summon
lightning. Why he does this is beyond me but I dont recommend that
move as its hard to hit your opponent with and usually leads you to
having your butt whooped by the computer, immense aggravation and a
sudden urge to hurt some thing around you
Ahem.
He has good speed, decent base moves and a fairly good set of
specials. I think of him as a medium ground of the game and recommend
him for people who are just starting the game.
Set Moves
Hold Right Walk
Hold Left Walk
Hold Up Jump

Up, B Flying staff smack
Special Moves
Down, Right, A Rocket Launcher
Down, Right, B Staff lunge
Down, Left, B Staff lightning strike
Miru Maru
What a big girl! Miru Maru is a mighty large witch who has this
terrible dominatrix thing going on with Lagen. But anyway, shes a
mediocre fighter with a few interesting moves and a few specials that
could do with some contemplation. I dont like to use her and I dont
recommend others to.
Set Moves

Hold Left Walk

Special Moves
Down, Right, A Mallet slam
Down, Right, B Rolling uppercut
Down, Left, A Far subterranean fist punch
Down, Left, B Near subterranean fist punch
Spice Ku
Spice Ku looks like a ninja with a small dagger and a serious
attitude. In truth he is a pirate with long blond hair. Although he
is an excellent fighter and one of my favourites, he does have some
weaknesses.
Some idio
er, smart-challenged persons think Spice Ku is an
Indian because of the costume, the dagger and the name. Just because
a guy has spice in his name, and spices came from India, doesnt make
the guy an Indian. Maybe Indian clothes were on sale at Zellers, or
maybe he is Indian or maybe
I think Im just going to be quiet now
Set Moves
Hold Right Walk
Hold Left Walk
Hold Up Jump
Hold Down Crouch
Right, Right Speed Right
Left, Left Speed Left

Magic Moves

Up, A Flying open hand
B Lightning kick
Right, B Knee strike
Down, B Dagger slash
Up, B Jump kick
Special Moves
Down, Right, A Circular blade slice
Down, Right, B Long slice with dagger
Note: If you are close to your opponent when you use this move,
youll switch sides
Down, Left, A Flying roundhouse kick
Down, Left, B Slingshot with angry cat ammo (Hissssss
)
Goritabum
Goritabum is another one of my favourites. He is equipped with
two magic yo-yos and is usually seen with a stoned/confused/spaced
out look on his face. Im of the belief that he is a leprechaun.
Others say hes just a guy who dresses like one. Sometimes, I just cant tell.
Anyway, hes a great fighter who has a great variety of moves and
carries a very good set of specials. Im favourable to using him and
cornering my opponents and repeatedly hitting them with his yo-yos but
apparently thats considered cheap. Oh, well
Set Moves
Hold Right Walk
Hold Left Walk
Hold Up Jump
Hold Down Crouch
Right, Right Speed Right
Left, Left Speed Left

Magic Moves
L Change magic

Right, B Low Kick
Down, B Crouch kick
Up, B Jumping front kick
Special Moves
Down, Right, A Flaming Yo-Yo uppercut
Down, Right, B Morphing mule kick (Literally!)
Down, Left, B Ground Yo-Yo fireball
Rax
Rax is one of those people who are more than they seem.
According to my research, Rax is actually a human professor named
Pebro. Pebro built Metalong and some how turned himself into a tiger-
like cat. Also, along with his professor career, he is also a
janitor! How do I know this? He fights with a broom. What kind of
student would use a broom? On the other hand, what kind of student
would be an aeroplane mechanic
?
Any way, Rax is a reliable fighter, although I dont fight with
him unless I have to. He has good speed and decent moves which can
make him a tough opponent.
Set Moves
Hold Right Walk
Hold Left Walk
Hold Up Jump
Hold Down Crouch
Right, Right Speed Right
Left, Left Speed Left

Magic Moves

B Punch
Right, B Claw uppercut
Down, B Low kick
Up, B Kick
Special Moves
Down, Right, A Elbow, punch combo
Down, Right, B Broom tornado
Down, Left, B Flying crow with a fish
Ruby
Ruby is the typical magician. She wears a top hat (comes with
violent rabbit that flies out of it), carries a wand (great for those
rioting crowds) and for some reason or another, a pet bee. She has
this thing going on with Miru Maru which I wont go into now. Her
moves are quite good and her specials are fantastic. Shes a good
fighter and is great for people who are specialists.
Set Moves

Up, B Jumping wand swipe
Special Moves
Down, Right, A Lunge wand hit
Down, Right, B Diagonal air kick
Down, Left, A Rabbit kick
Down, Left, B Poison powder from pet bee
Metalong
Metalong is a robot that was made by Pebro, a professor who
somehow turned himself into Rax (Long story which I dont know).
Although he seems to be having an identity crisis, hes still a pretty
good fighter. Though his flip kick can be cheap, his specials are
good and are very useful if you know how to pull them off. One of the
games best moves is his electric arm smash.
Set Moves
Hold Right Walk

Hold Up Jump
Hold Down Crouch

Special Moves
Down, Right, A Punching combo
Down, Right, B Electric arm smash
Down, Left, A Walking bomb
Down, Left, B Vegetable shooter
Zark
Zark is the last person you fight in a one player game and is the
hardest. Hes a bionic pirate who is bent on destroying the world.
Not only that, his breath smells! He has powerful basic moves and
even though hes a bit slow, his specials make up for it. His Plasma
grab and Plasma uppercut are top specials in the game.
Also, Zark is the only character in the game to not have magic
moves. What he has instead is a powerful flamethrower that can do
some serious damage when fully charged.

Hold Right Walk
Hold Left Walk

Hold Down Crouch

3. Da Game.
____________________________
Now the menus for this game are pretty simple. Your first
choices are Single player, Multi-player, Training, and Options. You
can only access Multi-player if youre linked to another Game Park.
Training mode is basically a chance to pound on any of the
regular characters while they stand around doing nothing. You and
your opponent have unlimited health so the only way to end the game is
to exit through the start menu.
The option menu is full with a bunch of technical stuff that I
just cant figure out. New comers should ignore it completely.
However, there is a insane password menu hidden within...
At the beginning of the game, you can choose from seven
characters, all of whom seem to be trying to graduate wizard school.
They seem to think that they can graduate school by fighting each
other until theyre black and blue. Each character starts with a set
of magic moves or spells that they can use and gain more as the game
progresses (Ooooh, look at that big word
).
The order of people you fight is randomly generated when you
confirm your character selection. Now who you pick is a personal
thing but Ive put some suggestions in the character bios.
Your fights consist of two to three rounds (depending on who
wins) and if you lose a fight, you get a game over which puts you back
at the beginning of the game. You have to beat all of the other
characters and then beat Zark, the last boss. Hes tough to beat and
if you stay still, he will annihilate you.
Once you beat Zark, youll see what happens to your character
after he graduates wizard school and later on in life. After the
credits, youll get put you back at the beginning of the game. The
only difference is that you can now access Zark as a character.

4. How to graduate wizard school this year

5. And now, what we've all been waiting for... Hardcore Cheating
and how to be cheap!
____________________________
Apparently, now theres a kind of Gameshark that works for GP32.
Its a lie! Even if it were true, Id be too lazy to get them
anyway... Ahem. Of course, back in mah day we actually had to play
the game to win. We didn't have none of these new-fangled Gameshark
thingies with their 8 character codes that seem to be all the rage
nowadays.
New! Apparently there is a cheat menu already in the game under
the options menu. However, I havent any idea how it works so
hopefully my advisor will have some insight in that particular area.
And now the cheapness. As in the strategy part of this faq, Im
going to list the characters, their cheapest moves and notes.
Lagen
Down, A Trip
B Roundhouse kick
Down, B Low staff swipe
Down, Right, A Rocket Launcher
Notes: These moves, if used repeatedly in rapid procession are
somewhat cheap.
Miru Maru
A Purse Smash
Down, Right, B Rolling uppercut
Notes: Miru Marus Rolling uppercut is one of the top five cheapest
moves in the game.
Spice Ku
B Lightning kick
Down, Right, B Long slice with dagger
Notes: Spice Ku has only two cheap moves which are both only cheap if
they are used again and again.
Goritabum
A Yo-Yo hit
B Punch
Down, Left, B Ground Yo-Yo fireball
Notes: Goritabums Primary attack, his Yo-Yo hit, can be really cheap
if youre stuck in a corner and you just keep getting bashed.
Rax
Down, Right, B Broom tornado
Notes: Raxs only cheap move is his Broom tornado which can be a real
pain if the guy youre fighting wont stop.
Ruby
Down, A Slide trip
Down, Right, B Diagonal air kick
Down, Left, A Rabbit kick
Notes: And the award for cheapest move goes to
Ruby, for her Slide
trip. Thats right folks; you can just keep on using it until your
opponent falls to the ground and stops moving.
Metalong
A Flip kick
Down, Right, B Electric arm smash
Notes: The flip kick is the cheapest A move in the game. Metalongs
Electric arm smash is a great move, but can be a bit cheap.
Zark
R Fire flamethrower
Down, Right, A Plasma Grab
Down, Left, B Net shot (if caught, character is trampled by
partying pirates)
Notes: Continual usage of any of these three moves can qualify as
cheapness as they are so powerful.

6. And you people PAYED to be in this school?!
____________________________
There are many mysterious things about Lil Wizard that go unanswered,
and this is the section for needless filler material, umm, important
discussions on those mysteries.
First, where is this school? Every scene looks like a different part
of the world. I mean, where would you find a temple, a jungle, a
flaming, crashed boat, a castle and a mountain village? Do we even
know if its on our world? Maybe this game takes place on some alien
planet where this is all normal and were considered aliens. The
world may never know
What kind of school would have ONE class containing an assortment of
creatures that you would probably find in a zoo? Now Im not sure,
but last time I checked, pirates, leprechauns, magicians, mad
professors that turn themselves into cats, and green-haired aeroplane
mechanics arent in the same class with each other. But then again,
times could be changing
Does a band follow the characters around? If not, then where the heck
is the music coming from?
Another odd point that I stumbled (Okay, tripped and fell flat on my
face) upon was while my friend, Deceiving Mad Scientist, was playing
as Ruby. If you read the conversations before the fights, youll
notice that practically every boy is infatuated with her! Plus, Miru
Maru and her have this rivalry thing going on with Lagen. Oooooh,
thats one love triangle you dont want to mess with.
Deceiving Mad Scientist points out these oddities:
I think Miru Maru had some serious issues with her makeup. I mean,
just look at her- she looks like a chipmunk with black hair, red eye
shadow, and flamingo cheeks. Who does she think she is? Britney Spears? And
what's with that whole evil mastermind look anyway?
Speaking of which, where WOULD she get her makeup from anyway? I
don't think she can just waltz right into a shop and buy Cover Girl
that easily...
Where are these kids parents? Did they up and decide that they'd
rather live in Australia than at some boring wizard school? Of
course, if their situation is anything like Neville Longbottom from
the Harry Potter books, that would not be very funny. Maybe I should
just shut up now...
