8-4 DEFEATING THE ENEMIES
Ghosts
You can suck up ghosts while they’re stunned with the Strobulb. Each ghost’s vitality is displayed by a number. As
you vacuum it, its vitality will decrease, and when it reaches zero it will be sucked up.
While being sucked up the ghost will try to escape to the left or right. Follow the on-screen directions with the
Poltergust to make it difficult for the ghost to escape.
Pulling the ghost will fill up the Pull Meter. Once it’s completely charged, press the Strobulb Button to dish out a great
deal of damage.
The ghosts’ vitality will be displayed upon receiving the players attack. Ghosts who don’t have a displayed vitality
cannot be affected by the Strobulb.
Certain ghosts use objects such as shields, buckets, and mirrors to hide their faces, making them invulnerable to the
Strobulb. Hit them with the Strobulb once their faces become visible to stun them.
Pests
Enemies that aren’t ghosts are called pests. Pests can be targeted. They can be defeated by the Strobulb, or by
vacuuming.
Attacking Enemies
There are ghosts that will throw objects, such as books or shoes.
If these thrown objects strike the player they will do damage. The
thrown objects can be targeted and avoided by sucking them up or
using the Strobulb.
There are two basic types of enemies - ghosts and pests.
