The Trolls in Crazyland

Prototype Info

Secret Passwords#

View Endings#

Enter the password DB_! to see the first ending sequence, or DW_* to see the second ending sequence (where "_" is a space).

Sound Test#

Enter the password !MGB. Press Up or Down to choose between music (BGM) and sound effects (EFT), Left or Right to change the value, A to play the current selection, or B to stop it.

Secret Message + 99 Lives#

Enter the password Z!N* to display the message "PROGRAM BY N. KAWAMOTO" and start with 99 lives. The message was removed in the European version, but you still get the extra lives.

The same code can be found in another KID game, Banana Prince, though it's completely unused there.

Disabled Stage Select#

Enter Game Genie codes LAVINNKO OTVSEYVS (Japan) or IUXSNVZL EVUIETVS (Europe) and choose Password on the title screen to access a stage select menu. Press Left or Right to change the stage number (includes mid-stage checkpoints), B to reset the number to 00, and Start to start the game.

You can also choose stage FE to view the first ending sequence, or stage FF to view the second.

Partial KID Logo#

It seems that KID originally wanted to include their logo in the CHR, as with several of their previous games, but was forced to erase most of it due to lack of space.

Regional Differences#

General#

The European version adds a screen full of copyright info before the opening cutscene, while the Japanese version goes straight to the cutscene.

Japan	Europe

The title screen was redesigned for the European release, and as seen above, the copyright info was moved to a separate screen.

Japan	Europe

In the Japanese version, you play as a kid named Ponpon who kicks footballs. In the European version, you play as a Troll named Winky who kicks fireballs.

The music for the Space Ride stage was altered between releases. The echo was removed and the lead was moved from the triangle channel to the pulse channel.
