• This is page 3 of our complete Castle Crashers game guide, featuring Cyclops' Cave.

  • Cyclops' Cave

    1. Hidden Animal Orb: After you enter the level, immediately exit the same way you came in. The Animal Orb Meowburt will be waiting for you.
    2. Collect the fruit to heal up and then proceed forward.
    3. Note that the armored foes in here are too heavy to juggle. Take them out with grounded melee combos instead if magic or arrows are not an option.
    4. The little imps here will try to take the gold that the enemies drop so pick it up fast.
    5. TIP: Cut the mushrooms to find some hidden food.

  • Cyclops' Gate

    1. Lava will spew out of the cracks in the floor, so take your time as you make your way up the slope.
    2. Break the wall to enter the fortress.

  • Cyclops' Fortress

    1. Again, the enemies here are too heavy to juggle, so focus on finishing them off with normal grounded combos, magic, or arrows.
    2. Hidden Animal Orb: Once you reach the second wave of enemies, bomb the cracked wall to uncover the Animal Orb, Snoot.
    3. Once you reach the end, you'll have to fight the Cyclops.

  • BOSS: Cyclops

    1. The first thing you want to do is move to a spot that allows for vertical movement. The Cyclops' main attack cannot be avoided by running to the left or right due to its long reach. The area to the right of the casket will do nicely.
    2. Whenever the Cyclops reaches up to jam his two knives into the ground, side-step them and then use whatever you've got to deal some damage before getting ready to side-step again.
    3. Soon he will start jumping around and then throw daggers at you. Just pull up your shield and block them.
    4. Once he stops, get back into the pattern of side-stepping his main attack and then punishing him.
    5. After delivering the finishing blow, the Cyclops will fall into the lava, treasure will rain down from the sky and you will be able to steal another kiss from a fair maiden.

  • Lava World

    1. Just like in the Cyclops' gate, be wary of the cracks in the ground as lava will spew out of them in regular intervals.
    2. The enemies in this level are very fond of using magic attacks, so whenever they start glowing with flames, be ready to either block or avoid some magic.
    3. TIP: If you are the Orange Knight, don't bother using magic on these guys.
    4. When you reach a metal door, kill the enemies that spawn to pick up sandwiches. You might as well kill five of them to ensure that you have a healthy supply.
    5. Once you have all the sandwiches you want, use one by selecting it in the inventory menu and pressing B. This will cause you to become beefy, allowing you to rip away the metal door by running up to it and repeatedly pressing X.
    6. TIP: Break the rocks that look like people to find hidden food.
    7. Fight your way through the armies of fire demons and skeletons until you reach a mountain. Open the treasure chest to find a piece of chicken to heal yourself, then travel up the ramp to fight a couple of more fire demons, followed by a miniboss.

  • MINIBOSS: Mini-Volcano

    1. This mini-volcano can only be damaged by a beefy knight, so eat a sandwich and start wailing away.
    2. If you run low on sandwiches, kill some of the fire demons to pick them up.
    3. While the volcano is being hit, it won't be able to erupt so just keep the hurt coming constantly.
    4. Once it's dead, continue to the right and head down the ramp.
    5. there are two treasure chests here with food that will let you heal up for the next boss fight.

  • BOSS: Sock Puppet Dragon

    1. This boss looks intimidating, but it really only has two attacks. The dragon's head will blow fire about 1/4th of the way up the mountain, while the sock puppet drops rocks from the other side.
    2. Melee oriented characters should concentrate on using hit and run tactics with their aerial X X X X Y combo on the dragon's head. When the dragon tilts his head down, immediately run towards the right and make sure that you can run under the bouncing rock.
    3. Ranged characters should head up the ramp and find a spot where they can just unload on the dragons head with their projectiles. This way the only thing they have to worry about are the falling rocks on the right side.
    4. Once the dragon falls, enter the door that opens to claim the golden ship helm and end the level.
    5. Now that we have some sandwiches, its time to pay a visit to the Industrial Castle.

  • Industrial Castle

    1. Go to the metal door, eat a sandwich and rip the door away to gain access to the castle.
    2. Make your way through the waves of enemies to reach a wall of poison cannons. Bring out your shield and head up the ramp at the top.
    3. Take your time as you walk past the crushers and tesla coils up ahead. They can be pretty damaging if you don't get the timing down.
    4. Fight your way past the enemies on the elevator to reach the top. Finish off the remaining waves of bad guys as you make your way to the right to reach the boss.
    5. Don't forget to pick up the Animal Orb, Cardinal as you continue on.

  • BOSS: Mechanical Boss

    1. Sorry, I couldn't think of a better name for this boss.
    2. There are actually six areas that you can damage this boss: The five poles that pop up in the center, the gun on the right side and the hand on the left.
    3. Start off by attacking the five poles one by one, while being sure to avoid the elemental attacks coming from the right and the hand from the left.
    4. Next, focus on the hand. The hand will back off if you damage it significantly enough, so keep on the offensive.
    5. Finally, finish it off by targeting the gun. The heated floor beneath the gun will damage if you step on it, but you can still get close enough to deal melee damage without getting burned by the floor. You just have to find your range.
    6. After the battle is over, grab the telescope and it's off to the docks!

  • Dock

    1. This really isn't a level at all. Just walk to the right to give the captain his relics so you can get on the ship.

  • Pirate Ship

    1. What starts out as a peaceful boat ride to the next continent is quickly interrupted by an enemy boat bombarding you with cannonballs. As always, avoid the red circles to avoid getting hit.
    2. The ninjas that board your ship are a fairly unique enemy type. If you see them turn into a log after you hit them, immediately block or move out of the way since they will teleport from the opposite side and try to hit you with a flying kick.

  • Desert

    1. Hidden Item: Break the sandcastle to find the Shovel. Use the shovel whenever you see an X on the ground to dig up secret items, food and Animal Orbs.
    2. TIP: There is a lot of buried treasure here, which makes this a good place to work on getting your Treasure Hunter - 20g achievement for digging up 10 buried items.
    3. The worms that crawl out of the quicksand in the desert will shoot balls of poison at you and will grab hold of you if you get too close. If you get grabbed, move the control stick back and forth to break free.
    4. The scorpions here are not actual enemies. They don't actively seek you out and they die in one hit. Deal with them if they get in your way, but don't actively seek them out.
    5. About halfway through the level you'll run into a Dune Bug. These guys dive into the sand and swim around in an attempt to ram into you. Wait for them to emerge and then unleash whatever you have at them before they dive back into the sand.
    6. Hidden Animal Orb: Just before you fight the spaceships there is an X on the floor that marks the spot where the Animal Orb Giraffey is buried.
    7. Fight your way through several waves of Dune Bugs, Sandworms and Desert Guards and you'll eventually make your way to the boss of the level. A Spaceship that drops Alien Hominids.

  • BOSS: Spaceship x2

    1. Ignore the aliens and just concentrate on using air combos on the spaceship. It's actually fairly weak so it shouldn't take too long to bring it down.
    2. Aside from throwing alien hominids at you, the only attack that the spaceship has is dropping a large block on you.
    3. After bringing down the first spaceship, take a couple of steps further to find that you'll have to fight another one.
