From: Jim Reardon SPIRITUAL WARFARE Instruction Manual [SPIRITUAL WARFARE] Experience "Spiritual Warfare" as you discover firsthand the whole armor of God in preparation to meet the enemies of the Lord. You will also see just how the fruit of the Spirit can impact the lives of others and ultimately win an entire city to God. The shield of faith will be your most important weapon in helping you to remain steadfast. But remember that the battle is not yours alone, it is the Lord's. "Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints." - Ephesians 6:13-18 [OBJECT OF THE GAME] To collect the six pieces of the Armor of God and defeat the ultimate source of evil. IF YOU JUST CAN'T WAIT... If you want to jump right into playing the game, skip ahead to the section entitled "A Guided Tour". [STARTING THE GAME] After you turn the game on, the screen will flash several times and the game will load. You will see the Wisdom Tree logo screen and the TITLE screen. To play the game, just make sure the arrow is pointing to "PLAY GAME" and then press START or A. You should now see the NAME ENTRY screen. From here you can use your controller to enter your name (up to eight letters). To correct mistakes simply move the SELECTOR (the glowing octagon) to the left and right arrows near the bottom. Use the A or B button to select these white arrows. Selecting these will cause the cURSOR (the glowing line and arrow beneath your name) to move left or right. When you are finished entering your name, move the SELECTOR over END and press START or A. To return to the TITLE screen, put the SELECTOR over QUIT and press START or A. Skip ahead to the section on GENERAL GAME PLAY to continue. CONTINUING THE GAME WITH A PASSWORD You can continue to play from a previous game with a password only if you wrote down the password from that game. There are two ways to continue in SPIRITUAL WARFARE. When a game ends, you can select CONTINUE from the GAME OVER screen or you can enter a password from the PASSWORD screen. To get to the PASSWORD screen, select ENTER PASSWORD from the TITLE screen. Use the SELECTOR to enter your password. Be very careful when entering the password. Pay close attention to upper and lower case letters, and the difference between the number "0" and the capital letter "O". (Zeros have diagonal lines trhough them.) Use the arrows to correct any mistakes. When you are finished entering your password, select END. If the password was entered incorrectly, the screen will display "BAD PASSWORD". Your password will then be shown again so you can make corrections. [GENERAL GAME PLAY] Convert souls with the Fruit of the Spirit or Vials of the Wrath of God. Converted souls often leave Spirit Points or Health. With Spirit Points, you can get additional Fruit and other items to help you in your quest. Search the various areas of the city to find the BOSS ROOMS. Upon defeating a Boss, you will find a piece of the Armor of God. Each piece of armor does something unique to help defend you against evil. ARMOR OF GOD Here is an explanation of each of the six pieces of the ARMOR OF GOD: Belt of Truth: allows you to push obstacles. Breastplate of Righteousness: Cuts damage taken by half. Boots of the Gospel: Allow you to walk across the rubble and wet cement. Helmet of Salvation: Protects you from explosions. Sword of the Spirit: The sword will burst when it is thrown. Shield of Faith: Cuts damage taken by an additional half. As you travel through the various sections of the city, you will encounter two types of people: Unsaved Souls and Christian Helpers. UNSAVED SOULS Some Unsaved Souls will go after you while others will just wander around. Use Fruit or Vials to convert these Unsaved Souls. Sometimes an evil Spirit will come out of a converted soul. Throw Fruit or drop a Vial to make these Spirits leave. Spirits and converted souls sometimes leave Spirit Points and Health behind. Walk up and collect them. CHRISTIAN HELPERS Throughout the city you will encounter people that are standing still. They are Christian Helpers and many times they offer advice. Walk up to these people and their messages will appear in the STATUS BAR. [PRIZES] The following are items that will assist you in your quest: FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT You can find Fruit in various areas of the city. The first pear is free. All of the other fruits require that you traide in Spirit Points (represented by a white dove). Throw Fruit by pressing the A button. Most souls can be converted with Fruit. There are 5 different Fruits, and you can collect up to 4 of each kind. This is helpful for fast shooting. (Example: if you collect 4 apples, you can throw 4 apples at a time.) Here is a list of the different fruits and their powers: Pear: Medium speed, very short distance, stops at solid items (rocks, walls, etc.) Pomegranate: Medium speed, short distance, goes through solid items and travels in a zig-zag pattern. Apple: Slow speed, medium distance, goes through solid items as well as continuing to travel through villains and obstacles. Grapes: Fast speed, medium distance, go through solid items and travle in a spraying pattern. Banana: Very fast speed, long distance, goes through solid items. Refer to the STATUS MENU section to see how to pick which fruit you want to use. Vials of the Wrath of God: These are picked up by the hero in groups of 3 or 7. The amount you have is shown on the status bar. The hero drops them by pressing the B button. The Vials burst after a short time or if hit by a Fruit or another burst. Vials can also be used to expose hidden items and doorways found under bushes and walls. Samson's Jawbone: To complete some BOSS ROOMS the Jawbone is necessary. The Jawbone also picks up Spirit Points, Extra Vials, Health, the Raft, Keys, and Heart Containers. [Note: this is the equal of the boomerang in Zelda]. Anointing Oil: Use this to completely refill your health. Key: Use keys to open locked doors. Torch: Light the torch to see special blocks in PUZZLE ROOMS. Raft: Once you find the Raft, you can cross areas covered with water. Railroad Ticket: This allows you to travel between any of the five train stations. GUARDIAN ANGEL Every once in a while, but especially when you are in trouble, a guardian angel will come to your assistance. Walk up to the angel and you will be asked 5 Bible questions. You receive 5 Spirit Points for each correct answer. If you answer all 5 correctly, you will be rewarded an additional 5 Spirit Points plus two hearts of Health. PRAYING If you are ever low on health (energy) and have at least 10 Spirit Points, you can pray. To pray, pull down the STATUS MENU (by pressing SELECT), put the SELECTOR over the praying hands, and press A or B. This will refill your health (energy) at the rate of one-half heart per 10 Spirit Points.

It displays the following information: If you press the SELECT button, the screen drops and the STATUS MENU appears. Here is a sample STATUS MENU. To choose an item, move the SELECTOR over the item and press A or B. Pressing SELECT or START will return you to the game. A breif description of each item is shown on the bottom of the screen. [BOSS ROOMS] Before each room containing a piece of the Armor of God is a BOSS ROOM. BOSS ROOMS contain unique individuals who are harder to convert than most. Sometimes you will need other items as well as Fruit to help you get past the BOSS ROOMS (refer to the Prize list). There are two ways out of a BOSS ROOM; The door you came in and the door that leads to an ARMOR ROOM. Once you convert the BOSS or make him leave, this ARMOR EXIT will become accessible. Each BOSS ROOM is different. BOSS ROOM 1: Throw fruit at this guy only when he comes out from behind the rock. BOSS ROOM 2: It takes 3 vials to convert this fellow. Watch out for the ever-changing maze! BOSS ROOM 3: As the projectiles track you, guid them toward the glowing bricks. Use this method and drop vials to eventually make a path of ladders to the exit at the top left. Be patient! BOSS ROOM 4: Use Samson's Jawbone to knock back the cherries. Once this guy is out of ammunition, he will go away and an exit will appear. BOSS ROOM 5: You'll encounter 4 unsaved souls in this room. The idea is to use three vials on the guy dressed in white at the top, but first you'll need to get past his three helpers. These helpers will only go away when pused by a barrel. Use vials to find the hidden ladders. (It helps to enter this room with a lot of vials.) BOSS ROOM 6: An evil spirit flies across the top of this room. Throw the Sword once to make him green. While he's green, you must hit him again with the Sword. Watch out for the falling spirits! FINAL ROOM: This guy is the toughest. Use your Sword to temporarily stop his rock shield. Then use your Fruit to hit him. He goes away only after 7 hits.
