The Adventures of Down Under Dan

Day 1

Reaching the Ground

While you are flying, press the bottom-right green button in the top group of buttons. Walk away from the cockpit, then walk down to it again. After the flying emu crashes into the plane, walk away from the cockpit once more. Walk behind the crates on the left and you will automatically pick up your knife. Also pick up the parachute and the orange surfboard. Use the knife on the first aid crate to get a first aid kit. Now use the door on the right side of the plane and you will jump out.

As you are falling, use the surfboard on yourself. Dodge the 10 pelicans as you fall to the ground (you should return to the middle of the screen after dodging each one). After dodging the 10th pelican, use the parachute on yourself. Once you are stuck in the tree, use the knife on the parachute to get some cord, then use it again to free yourself.

Making a Fire

Use the tree where the parachute is hanging, and you will get some bark. Avoiding the large hole, walk to the right. Pick up the stick, then continue up. Search the cave to find a map. Return left and pick up another stick. Continue left to get another stick. Keep going right and left and picking up sticks until you have 10 of them. There will also be a smoldering stick you can pick up 1 time.

Go around towards the cave again. Use your bark in the old fireplace. Add all of the 10 normal sticks, then finally the smoldering stick. You will successfully make a fire, then fall asleep.

Day 2

Surviving the River

When you wake up, head left twice to see your parachute is gone. Pick up the billy can, then slide down and you will end up in the river. Stay in the middle of the river until a stick floats to you and you automatically collect it. Now climb out on the bottom river bank and you will get caught in a dingo trap. Quickly use the stick on the trap to free yourself, then use the first aid kit on your foot.

Making Some Money

Walk down, then up and right to find the town. Head up into the store to meet Robbo. Talk to him for some advice, then talk again to get a compass. Go back outside and search the trash can to get some food scraps. Next walk left, down and right to find the farm.

Walk along the path to find a farmhouse, then continue down. Use the food scraps on the pigs. Go down again and use the food scraps on the black chicken. Walk into the house and you will meet Nicole. After talking to Jack, take the shotgun. Leave by walking down, then continue left into the other part of the house to find Nicole again. Talk to her to get $30, then wait for her to leave. Search the kitchen cupboards to find a compressed CO2 cartridge. Walk down to leave.

Head back towards town by heading left, then going along the winding path. Nicole will take the shotgun back from you as you leave. Walk up to Mad Mike's house. If he isn't here, leave and come back again until he is. Wait until he stops swinging his axe, then talk to him. Wait until he stops again, then give him the billy can - he will give you a piece of chalk. Now head right to town and enter the store again. Use your coin on the correct shelves to buy a box of shotgun shells and a shearing hand-piece.

Leave the store and go left, down and right, then walk along the winding path. Enter the house and pick up the shotgun again. Leave the house, then walk left and go up to Rabbit Ridge. Shoot 10 rabbits (without wasting any ammo), then leave the area. Head back to Mad Mike. Wait for him to stop swinging his axe, then sell him the rabbits for $20. Walk right into town and enter the store. Use your coin on the right shelf to buy some shearing blades.

Exploring the Mines

Leave the store again and go left, down and left to return to the river. Cross by jumping on the logs and avoiding the crocodiles (always go from bottom log to top log). On the other side, head right. Use the map on yourself, then click on the rock just above you. This time you will be following the brown path up the map, so keep using the map on yourself and clicking on the next rock along this path until you reach the top. Stomp on the fire to put it out. Walk left twice, then drop into the hole. Now follow these steps:

• Take the valve from the wheel
• Go down
• Pick up a grub
• Go down twice, up twice and right
• Pick up a grub
• Go down, right and up twice
• Use the chalk on yourself and you will fall down another hole
• Go right

Swim down through the river to cross to the other side. Try to talk to the Aboriginal man here, then continue right. Head along the path to the farm, then head down and right. Use your stick on the anthills in the path here to get a honey ant, then use it on yourself to heal. After you have eaten it, it is safe to get another one using the same method - you cannot hold 2 at the same time.

Walk down, then enter the shed. Look at the motorbike. Use the valve on it, then use the CO2 cartridge to fill the flat tire. Now use the motorbike to herd the sheep. Go right to find the sheep shearing shed. Use your shearing hand-piece on the red shearing stand to the top-left (make sure you have full health before doing this).

After a long cutscene, head right, down and up into the farmhouse again. Talk to Jack.

Day 3

Tracking Animals

You will automatically talk to Nicole and then Jack. Leave this room and walk left into the house. Wait for Nicole to leave, then search the kitchen cupboards to get an empty jar. Leave the farmhouse, then walk left and leave the farm. Talk to Ridgy Didge and you will get some yams. Walk up to visit Mike again, then wait for him to stop swinging his axe. Give him the dingo trap in exchange for a wildlife translator.

Head down and left, then cross the river using the logs (and crocodile heads) again. Go right and use the map on yourself, this time following the blue path up the map. Walk left twice and use your wildlife translator on the kangaroo. Walk down to slide into the river, then swim down across it and get out. Continue down and left, and cross the river using the crocodile heads. Enter the mine and collect the joey (by walking into it), then leave to the right. Walk right and use the map on yourself, this time following the green path up the map.

Go left twice at the top and return the joey to its mother - you will receive a code sheet (2369). Slide down again and swim over the river. Use the wildlife translator on the wombat, then give it your yams. You will receive another code sheet (A235). Head right and then cross the river using the logs and crocodile heads yet again. Enter the mine again.

Traveling to Ayers Rock

This time you need to walk around the mines specifically to press buttons matching the code sheet you just received. From the entrance, follow these steps:

The machine here should say "Ayers Rock Access Code is active". Use the A235 code sheet on the machine, then walk into the beam. Go up and use the wildlife translator on the koala. Go left and pick up the boomerang. Go right twice and quickly pick up the bone so the crab spider leaves you alone. Return left and down, and use the A235 code sheet on yourself.

You will be back in the mines, so follow these steps:

• Go left and up twice
• Use the chalk on yourself to fall down the hole again

Back to Tracking Animals

Swim down through the river once more and go down. Give the bone to Ridgy Didge. Go right and along the path, then up into the distance to return to Rabbit Ridge. Immediately throw your boomerang at the snake. Jump up to the rock on the left (above the bull) and jump up to catch the surfboard. Now use the cord from your parachute on the bull, and you will automatically bring the bull back to the farm.

Walk towards the farm, then head down and right. Use a stick to get another honey ant (as long as you have used the last one). Eat it and get another one if you need to. Walk down, then enter the farmhouse. You will tell Nicole about Patch being returned - Jack is sleeping for now. Walk down and along the path, then go left. Cross the river using the crocodile heads. Enter the mine.

Use the surfboard and if you have timed it correctly you will end up behind the snake so you can pick it up. Use the 2369 code sheet on yourself.

You will be back in the mines, so follow these steps:

• Go left and up twice

Day 4

Making a Cure

After Nicole leaves, look in the basket on the kitchen bench, and use your small bottle on the Eucalyptus oil to get some. Leave the farmhouse and go down and right. Use your wildlife translator on the kookaburra. Use the black snake on yourself to collect the venom in your glass jar. Now give the black snake to the kookaburra, and you will receive a ring.

Go left, down and left, then up to Rabbit Ridge again. Shoot 5 rabbits (without wasting any ammo), then leave the area. Go back into the farmhouse and head left. Sell Nicole the rabbits for $10. Leave the farmhouse again, then go left, along the path, up, right and into the store. Use your coin on the left shelf to buy another box of shotgun shells.

Leave the store, then head into the pub on the right. Talk to the man and you will lose an arm-wrestling contest to him. Go back outside and head left. Wait until Mike stops swinging his axe, then talk to him. Take one of the mighty fruits from the tree and you will eat it, restoring your health to 200%. Go right and into the pub again. Talk to the man and you will win this time. Talk to the barmaid, then give her the ring from the kookaburra. Once you receive the book, use it on yourself to find another code sheet (2047).

Leave the bar and go left, down and left. Cross the river using the logs and crocodile heads (this time use both the left-sided objects first, then the right-sided ones). Enter the mine again.

Give the cure to Jack. Head down and into the left part of the farmhouse. Talk to Nicole to receive the opal detector and remote control unit.

Getting Wealthy

Go and get some more honey ants to top up to 100% health, then leave the farm. Continue up and right to enter the town, then walk down to find a large termite mound. Don't walk towards it, just use the opal detector on yourself. Drive this over to the left of the termite mound until you find opals, then drive back to yourself to pick it up again.

Use all 5 of your bats on the termite mound to feed the ants. Now you can go and pick up the opals. Leave to the right, then enter the pub.
