Written Walkthrough
When you arrive on the island, head immediately all the way to the right and
follow the sign to the Ancient Ruins. You can stop by and visit some of the
buildings like the Shark Museum on the way, but they’re not necessary for
completing the mission. Go through the next short room and head to the right.
You’ll arrive in the ancient ruins. Go all the way to the right and watch out
for the dropping coconuts as you go. Go to the end and you’ll see a sign for
Booga Bay. Go right again and head for the bay.
Go right through this short room and then you’ll arrive in lovely Booga Bay.
Talk to the first guy you see at the Grass Skirts stand. He’ll give you a grass skirt so that you will look like a native
islander. Put on the grass skirt and then head back left to the
ancient ruins. When you arrive in the ruins, jump over the big stone in the
middle so that you are standing on the left side of it and then
push it to the right until it is underneath the vine right next to the palm
tree. Now jump up on the top of the block. Watch out for falling coconuts and
then jump up again to catch the vine.
Continue climbing up the vine and jumping up on the platforms on the tree
until you get to the very top, where you’ll find a medicine man. He will talk to
you because you look like an islander in your grass skirt. Click on him and ask
him, “What else can you tell me?” He will tell you that deep in the temple there
is a wall carving that will show you what you need to bring to him so that he
can make a potion that will put the big shark to sleep.
Jump off the platform and keep going down until you reach the ground. Walk a
short distance to the left and you’ll see the entrance to the temple. It is in
the mouth of the big statue and has spider webs in it. Go inside and then jump
down the platforms in the first area.
Soon, you’ll be standing on a platform and there will be a swinging platform
to your left. Time your jump so that you land on it and then keep moving to the
left. You’ll reach a wall and then will need to go all the way to the bottom.
Watch out for the purple bats, who will knock you over. Once you get to the
bottom, go left and then jump all the way up again. Soon you’ll see a big green
control panel in the upper left corner. Jump up onto that platform and click on
the panel.
This panel will open the door to the left, but only if you press the correct
teeth in the mouth. Counting from the left, you need to click on the 3rd, 4th,
6th and 7th teeth. Then press the big triangle above the teeth and between the
two eyes. The door will open and you can go through it to the left. Keep going
through the next passage and you’ll arrive inside a large chamber with a green
vine hanging down. This one works a lot like the chamber before. Just jump onto
the vine and drop all the way down to the bottom. Go left some more and you’ll
come up to a big golden statue of the shark. Jump up on top of that statue and
then over it. At this point, you can either jump up onto the swinging panel
above you and keep going left, or just head straight across. If you jump up,
you’ll get to a small pit with spikes in the walls. Jump down here and you’ll
land next to an old skeleton with a bone in its mouth. Walk over to the bone to
pick it up.
Now head right and go back to the shark statue. Climb back up to the top and
jump on the swinging platform and go left until you get to the pit with the
spikes in the walls. Wait here for the sliding platform to come close and then
jump on it. Ride it to the other side of the pit and then jump off and exit to
the left. Go through the passageway and you’ll arrive in another chamber with a
green vine. Just jump down here and run across the floor until you get to a
giant pedestal with an urn holding some green stuff in it. Jump up on top of
that and you will get the Key Ingredient. There’s a vine here. Jump up onto
it and climb up to leave the chamber. You’ll be in a small room with platforms.
Keep jumping up to the top and then exit.
You’ll appear out of a hole in the sand right at the beginning part of the
island next to the guy selling shark fins. You can get one from him if you like,
but you don’t need it to solve the mission. Now walk to the right a little and
talk to the guy standing next to the booth outside the Coconut Cafe. He will
give you some carbonated coconut milk, which is the 3rd and
final ingredient you need to bring to the Medicine Man.
Now go to the right and head for the ancient ruins. Push the stone in the
middle back underneath the vine next to the tree and go back up to visit the
Medicine Man. He will take all of the ingredients and create a potion for you.
You’ll get the Calming Potion from him, which can be used to
calm the Great Booga Shark. Jump off the tree to the right and head to Booga
Bay.
After you arrive in Booga Bay, go to the right until you pass a fisherman and
arrive at a cannon with a sign next to it that says, “Feed the Shark.” Click on
the cannon and point it up in the air and then click again to launch the coconut
with the potion in it into the bay. As soon as it lands in the water, the great
Booga shark will appear and eat it. He’ll turn green and then fall asleep below
the water. Click on the “Back” button in the upper-right corner of the game to
return to the main screen. Now you can safely cross the water while the shark is
sleeping. Cross the island and you will come to a small island. Go right at the
end and you will then arrive next to Professor Hammerhead.
Talk to Professor Hammerhead and he will thank you for rescuing him and the
boy and ask you to lead them back to the mainland. Head to the left again and
back across the water. Both the professor and the boy will follow you. When you
arrive back to where the crying woman is standing, she will thank you for
rescuing her son. Professor Hammerhead will then give you a gold medallion and
you have completed the adventure. Congratulations!
