  Gameplay:

  -----------

  You have to collect 3 objects and bring them to the central room with the circles.

  

  In this room, there is a location to drop the objects into the circles.

  When all 3 objects are in the circles, a pink teleport to the next level appears. There are 3 levels to explore.

  

  To obtain some objects, you first have to get a Combat room key. If you got the key, a black teleport appears somewhere in the map to enter a combat room.

  

  After entering the combat room, you have to kill all enemies before an object appears.

  Gameplay indicators:

  ---------------------

  At the bottom, there is an energy bar. This bar shows your current energy level. Your energy level can be raised by eating worms and is decreased by getting hit by spit or toxic drops. The dots indicate the max energy level at a certain stage. The maximum energy level is increased after you drop an object in the circles.

  

  When you have a Combat room key, a small key symbol appears on the left side of the energy bar.

  

  If you have an object, a red dot is shown on the left side of the energy bar.

  

  Tips:

  -----

  You can do 'Mario jumps' to stumble enemies,You must find the invisible entrance and enter a 'Dark maze' to get a combatroom key,You can leave and re-enter combat rooms if eg. energy level is low,Objects and Combat room keys can also be located in previous levels.
