AboutHelen Joan Casper Expertise Ever since I played "Pong" in the early 80's, I've been a video game aficionado. I can answer hardware & games questions about PSP (PlayStation Portable), all PlayStation (1,2,& 3), Wii, Wii Fit, GameCube, Nintendo DS, Nintendo (NES), Super Nintendo, Gameboy/Gameboy Advance, and antiquated systems (ColecoVision, Atari, Sega, etc). I can answer hardware questions about all systems (including PS1 - PS3, Wii, NES, SNES, PSP, DS, GBA, GB, Xbox and Xbox 360). I can also answer PC game questions, especially CounterStrike: Source, Vampire: Bloodlines, Half-Life 1&2, Portal, Team Fortress 2, and all Sims & Sims 2 questions. I am ESPECIALLY knowledgeable in Square-Enix (formerly SquareSoft) games such as ALL the Final Fantasy games (I can even tell you really obscure things about these games). If I haven't played the game yet I will research it and help you find the answer, renting the game if necessary. I can even answer questions dealing with the consoles themselves (hardware questions).
I cannot answer questions about Action Replay. I cannot answer questions about football, basketball, or wrestling sports games. I also have very limited knowledge about Xbox & Xbox 360 games unless they are cross-platform. If it is an independent game that has not been widely published and/or a game only released in some countries, I may not be able to help with it either (sadly!)
Experience I am also an expert here in games/roleplaying games, weddings, childbirth, and doulas. My husband is a computer programmer and one of the forefront coders for CounterStrike: Source scripts & mods. He has his own forums for coders/scripters at Mattie.Info. I have been an expert here since 2000 (under the name of Helen Chipman) and also volunteer on numerous other game-related websites and forums.
Question Helen, you were asked this same question a little over a year ago, but I do not see where you completed your answer. I am wondering if you have found the answer in the year since the question was asked: How does Lucas get the third "lift credit" so that he can lift the rocks that are blocking the remaining fire crystals? My son just got this game for his sixth birthday. He and I have won every challenge and have found most of the fire crystals, but we MUST maximize the lift credits in order to complete the game. I do agree with your original assessment of this game; it is VERY frustrating!
If you still do not have the answer to this, perhaps you can steer me to a site that has a walkthrough or some other reference for this game. I am considered an expert in search the Internet for answers to any question, no matter how obscure, but I am at a loss on this one! Not one gaming site seems to have any advanced help for this particular game.
Answer Sadly, I even rented this game but I wasn't able to get very far in it at all before I had to return it. I kept getting graphics issues and disc-read errors that made it nearly unplayable. I then asked a few friends of mine and searched online- all I could find were negative reviews of the game and no help whatsoever.
So I am very, very sad to say that I do not have any information for you but I did want to give you a response. I have also looked on numerous gaming sites and can't find any sort of walkthrough at all. I could rent it again and see if my son would be able to play it but it may take him a while. I've even asked friends who are dedicated gamers but none of them were even familiar with the game.
Please let me know if I can help you with anything else.
