THE STORY
---------
BigNose: The Story So Far...
On their tiny prehistoric island, a whole village is starving and Thanksgiving
is only a few days away! All the big game animals have left - they don't want
to be hunted any more, and the cave clans are getting tired of eating lettuce.
Bignose had heard a legend about a long forgotten peanut butter mine on the
island, and he went off in search of it one warm sunny morning. He hadn't got
far when an enormous pterodactyl flew high overhead...
"WOW! If I could catch that there big birdy then all the people in the
village would have enough food for a great Thanksgiving! Forget the peanut
butter mine - we're gonna have a roast birdy!"
And so Bignose set out on a hunting adventure which will take him over four
islands, through perilous caves and even up into the sky!

How to play Bignose The Caveman
Bignose starts the game with just three lives and his neanderthal club.
Bignose should be very careful not to touch any of the small animals that
populate the island - they can all kill him instantly.
Bignose's Club
Watch out for the three rocks icon. When Bignose picks this up he can use his
club just like a baseball bat to launch rocks at his enemies. If Bignose
touches the wildlife while carrying stones, he'll survive the attack but the
shock will make him drop them. If he's not carrying stones then... KAPUT!
Bones and Shops
Pick up any bones that you may find along the way - they can be exchanged in
the hidden shops for weapons, magical powers and even bonus lives.
Hidden Features
Bignose can smash rocks with his club to reveal hidden objects - doing this
can often be rewarding. Some rocks need to be hit more than once.

SPELLS
------
The hidden shops...
Bignose will have to look hard to find the shops - remember, billboards
weren't invented back then! SUPER-POWERFUL WEAPONS can be bought, as well as
BONUS LIVES and MAGIC SPELLS. Try a Fast Club to improve your clubbing
action, or Double Stones for a twin shot capability.
The status screen
Once spells have been bought, you'll need to choose when to use them. When
you need a spell, press SELECT to call up the STATUS SCREEN, and then use UP
and DOWN to choose what to use. Press A or B to use it, and then START to
carry on with the game.
Powers and Spells
Special powers and spells usually last until the end of stage or until Bignose
loses a life and are often best kept for use against the BIG BOSS MONSTERS at
the end of each level.
FEATURES
--------
Extras, bonuses and surprises
Explore very carefully! The whole game is jampacked with hidden levels,
bonuses and extra features, but none of them will be easy to find!
HINT: If Bignose should fall off a cliff, he can learn the best route to pick
up the most bones! Swap hints and tips with your friends and see who can find
the most hidden features!
The Big Boss Monsters
At the end of each level you'll meet a BIG, BAD AND VERY NASTY BIG MONSTER...
you'll have to be very cunning and agile to beat them, but it can be done.

Flying
Bignose uses his club as a helicopter rotor to fly between the islands. Keep
pressing your A Button to keep him flying. If you stop to hit a stone he'll
lose height quickly, so be careful. Eventually you'll meet our flying friend
here and face the ultimate flying challenge.
(Picture of a millipede) SQUIRMER
This gruesome monster and its brothers and sisters guard the exit to the cave
sections of the islands. Be careful when you come up to a section of pillars
underground. Although this fiend is quick and deadly, he is very repetitve
and always follows the same route so by careful observation, you can beat him.
(Picture of a Saber-Tooth Tiger) SABER
This Saber tooth tiger can be found in the cold frozen wastes of the high
mountains. He used to be Bignoses' pet but he ran away when the food ran out.
Now he's gone wild and Bignose will have to beat him to find the bird he's
looking for.
