Credits 001-General Information ----------------------------------------------------------- This is a walkthrough for the Windows game called Putt-Putt Saves the Zoo. To contact me, e-mail ilovecartoonssomuch@yahoo.com, but make the subject blank if you do. 002-Characters ----------------------------------------------------------- Putt-Putt: The lovable purple car that is the star of the game. He may be a dork who says, "Hot Ziggity!" a bit too much, but he's a nice guy and always tries to help others. Pep: Pep is a dog and Putt-Putt's best friend. Mr. Baldini: He owns the grocery store in Car Town, and he lets Putt-Putt deliver the food to the new zoo. Outback Al: The owner of the new zoo, who is, for some reason, too busy to solve the zoo's problems, so he lets Putt-Putt do it instead, the slacker. Chuck Wagon: He gives Putt-Putt free food. Cool! Rhyming Monkeys: Beatnik-esque monkeys who spend their time coming up with rhymes for words. For example, if the chosen word is "pants", they'd rhyme "There were some _ants_ who crawled in my _pants_ and I believe I did a _dance_. Pants. Penguins: These guys seem nice, but don't do too much. Polar Bear: He plays hockey against Putt-Putt whenever possible. Baby Jambo: The elephant who is "trapped by a giant, scary mouse," that is, in reality, not very big and not very scary. Kenya: She's the lion cub who is trapped by the waterfall. Masai: She's a giraffe who got lost for some reason. Sammy: She's a seal who was landed by an unfortunate damming. That's not cool; seals need to swim! Skeeter: A snake, not a mosquito, who is too cold to slither away. Zanzibar: A hippo who tries to put on a tough-guy act like his dad does. Smokey the Fire Engine: From Putt-Putt Joins the Parade, Smokey makes a cameo in the photo book at the end of the game. 003-Walkthrough ----------------------------------------------------------- We start off in Car Town. It'll look slightly familiar to all you folks who played Putt-Putt Joins the Parade, except the graphics are SOOOOOO much better in this game. Putt-Putt stops at Mr. Baldini's for some reason. Mr. Baldini is used to having Putt-Putt run groceries for him, so Mr. Baldini gives Putt-Putt a special grocery delivery job: deliver some food chow to Outback Al at the zoo. It's opening day of the zoo, you know! Head right down the roads to the zoo entrance. Click on the red button on the speaker, and Outback Al lets you in, despite the poor reception. So go into the zoo and talk to Outback Al. My game freezes up here, so I don't know what goes on, but I guess the conversation goes like this: Outback Al has a big problem: all the baby animals are missing! Oh no! Al has stuff to do, so Putt-Putt can take care of things. Al gives you a list of the baby animals and then takes off. You can go right here Go to the car on the left. He's Chuck Wagon, giving away some free food! Get some cheese squigglies and hot cocoa from him, free of charge. Then go back right, and then up to the main part of the zoo. From here, you can go to Arcticland, Jungleland, and the Grasslands. Time for some quick gear-grabbing. Go to Arcticland and open the igloo to find a rope. Then leave Arcticland and go to the Grasslands. Grab the log that's in your way, then head to Jungleland. Click on the vine there to swing across the gap in the bridge. The alligator just sits there and watches you the whole time. Once across, Putt-Putt finds himself with a group of beatnik monkeys. Head to the right to find Masai, who's stuck because that rock prevents the drawbridge from coming down (how did she get there in the first place, then?). Let her know that'll you'll help her as soon as you can, then head back left to the monkeys. Go left again, and you meet the snake's mom. Promise to help out her son, then move left again to find a raft that is missing a log. Use the log you got from the Grasslands on the raft, and Putt-Putt puts it into place. Jump on the raft and ride upstream. You meet the hippo's dad, who is in a bad mood about losing his son. Go upstream some more to the waterfall, and you see Kenya the lion cub there. Talk to her to learn that she's stuck 'cause she can't swim. We'll have to get to her another way. Go right to the end of the river and take the scenic view up to the top of the waterfall. Use your rope on the waterfall, and Putt-Putt lowers it to Kenya. He pulls her to safety, and she somehow makes it back to her parents without using Putt-Putt's raft. Go back down the road and go through the cave. You're back with Masai. Help push the boulder out of the way. Now ride your raft all the way back down the river and drive all the way back to the other side of this area, and lower the crank to let Masai across. Then leave Jungleland, 'cause you saved all the baby animals here (there are two in each section of the zoo). Go to the Grasslands, and move right. Masai is back home again, which is good. Move right again. Kenya's back home again, too. Wow, how great. Move right to find Baby Jamba, the elephant, trapped by a mouse. Now, as everyone who read "There's a Boy in the Girl's Bathroom" should know, elephants are afraid of mice, because mice might run up their trunks. So Jamba is scared to move, because there's a mouse nearby. Talk to Jamba to get a lowdown on the situation, although I just gave you one. Then take the cheese squigglies that you got from Chuck Wagon, and give them to the mouse. The mouse, distracted, runs off, leaving Baby Jamba free to return home. Yay, you rescued three of the baby animals! Move to the right, and you're at the paint shack. Grab the shovel and paint yourself a new color if you want to (note that the dashboard doesn't change if Putt-Putt's color does). Move left as far as you can, to the other end of the Grasslands. You pass the elephants and the watering hole on the way. When you're at the end, you meet Sammy, who is plotting revenge against her mother-in-law Kate and worrying about her son Will and, wait! My mistake! That's Sami Brady from "Days of our Lives". You meet Sammy Seal, who is stuck in the dry river. You just need to lower the dam to free Sammy, so grab the tool box and pull out the right gear. Putt-Putt holds it in his, um, what is that thing? Anyway, he holds it while giving the ultimate dork face. Seriously, this is the dork face to end all dork faces. I tried to reproduce it at the top of this guide, but didn't do so well. Find the right wrench and use it on the dam to free Sammy, which makes four animals done! Two left to go! Head back to Arcticland. Woah, look at the snow! What an avalanche hazard! Pep almost sneezes, but Putt-Putt stops him. Then Putt-Putt sneezes, even though he has no nose. An avalanche ensues, and Putt-Putt makes it out safe (darn!). Use the shovel on the snow to dig a path, so you can go explore Arcticland. You move down the road to find Skeeter, frozen stiff on the ice. Give him some hot cocoa and he warms up right away, and goes back home to his mama. The road forks here. You can go right to play some hockey, but you're supposed to go left to find Zanzibar and some penguins. If you go left again, you find Sammy with her family. Move towards Zanzibar. He's stuck on an iceberg. You need to make a bridge to the shore. Move the icebergs (with the help of the penguins) in the right positions to make the bridge. The pieces have to fit together perfectly from top to bottom. Here's a small example. If a piece looks like this: ___ | | \_/ You must find a piece a piece that will fit onto it perfectly, a piece like: |\_/| |___| So that together, they make a perfect rectangle, like this: ___ | | |\_/| |___| You have to do something like that, only with four pieces instead of two. It's not that hard, really. Once you do that, that means you've saved all the baby animals! Yay! Putt-Putt has saved the zoo! He gets a junior zoo keeper badge, and you can play around with a photo book of the game (make sure to click on the photos!) while the credits roll. Have fun seeing the kids who did the voices for the main characters! 004-Baby Animals ----------------------------------------------------------- This section quickly goes over where the baby animals are and what you need to do to get them. Baby Jambo is trapped in the Grasslands by a mouse. Get rid of the mouse by feeding it the cheese squigglies from Chuck Wagon. Kenya is stuck in the waterfall in Jungleland. Use rope from the tool shed in Arcticland to save her. Masai is stuck between the drawbridge and tunnel in Jungleland. Go around Jungleland and go through the tunnel, then help her push the boulder. Then go all the way around Jungleland again and lower the drawbridge. Sammy is stuck in the mud in the Grasslands. Use a tool from the Toolbox in Jungleland to lower the dam and free her. Skeeter is on the ice in Arcticland. Give him hot cocoa from Chuck Wagon to save him. Zanzibar is stuck on an iceberg in Arcticland. Make a bridge for him to cross. 005-Credits ----------------------------------------------------------- This FAQ is copyright of The Lost Gamer, 2005.
