Find out where some of the smallest, hard-to-find items are locatated and learn the basics of Cannonball so you can get as many hints as you need!
GENERAL TIPS
- There are 2 modes, Timed mode or Relaxed. In Timed Mode you will play against the clock. In Relaxed Mode you will have unlimited time to complete the game.
- Since some items are very hard to find, you may want to play in Relaxed Mode. This will allow you plenty of time to look for items since so many can be very tiny. It will also give you plenty of time to play the Cannonball mini game if you are in need of more hints.
- If you do not feel like reading the clues as you go along in the game, you can do so later. Just click on the envelope that is on the main page and you can read all the clues you’ve collected at once.
- When they game asks for a person’s name, look for a figure or a portrait of a person. Once they asked for a President, it turned out to be the name 'Lincoln' carved into the back of a chair.
- Several items are landscaped into the grass, carved on a stone or a piece of wood. Other items blend into the clouds in the sky. Other items appear only as shadows of the actual item. Keep all of these things in mind when looking for things.
- All clues may not be visible on the list at one time. As you find some items from the list, others will appear in their place. Keep checking the list as it updates itself so you can look for all the items in a timely manner.
- You may click on an item that you know is correct and the game is not accepting it. Since a lot of items are so small in the game you have to make sure that you place your cursor in precisely the right spot.
- If you’re having a hard time clicking on an item that is close to the edge of the page. Minimize the screen from the options menu and it should be easier to click on it then.
- If you can’t find an item in a screen, click on the 'map' option and go to another location. Sometimes you can focus too hard on a scene and it makes it harder to find items. By the time you return to that scene you will get a fresher look.
- You begin each period with 3 hints. That’s not a lot of hints when you have 50 to 70 items to look for at one time. Use them as a last resort only.
- When you click on a hint make sure that you are looking at the screen, if you’re not paying close attention you risk the chance of missing the hint. The hint will only glimmer for a short amount of time. If you miss it you will have to waste another hint.
- When you run out of hints you can obtain new hints by playing the Cannonball mini game. Just go back to the main map and click on 'Obtain more hints' in order to play.

SXYAPO Walk up a screen, and you can walk all over at the top. NYAZPA Everything except you and the enemies are black, even your hearts.
- In order to obtain more hints you have to play the Cannonball mini game which is similar to the Windows PC game Minesweeper. The purpose of the game is to find where all the cannonballs are hidden.
- Start by clicking on any square in the grid. It should open up some squares with numbers on them. (I like to start by clicking each of the four corners of the grid, but your first click can be anywhere. The first click is guaranteed not to be a cannonball.)
- The numbers refer to how many cannonballs are touching that square. So if you see a '1' then one of the squares touching the grid is a cannonball, and all the rest are blank. If you see a '4,' then four of the squares around it are mines and the rest are blank, and so on.
- If you guess that a square has a cannonball underneath, then right click on that square and it will be marked with a flag.
- You can usually use logic to figure out which squares are cannonballs. For example, if a '1' is touching only one blank square, then that blank square must be a cannonball.
Example 1 (click to enlarge):
- The '1' squares circled in green are only touching one other square, so I know that the squares they are touching must be cannonballs and have marked them with flags. The '2' marked with a green square around it is only touching two empty squares, so I know that both of those squares must be cannonballs.
- If there are any other squares with '1' that are touching the cannonballs I’ve identified, I know that the rest of the squares around the '1's can’t possibly be cannonballs too, otherwise the number would be more than 1. So, I can click on all of the squares that are bordering those '1' squares (which I’ve marked in solid green circles.)
Example 2 (click to enlarge):
- After clicking all of the squares mentioned above, some new squares and numbers have opened up. Again, the '1's at the top of the screen are all touching the cannonball I’ve already identified, so the squares to the left of them must be blank.
- The '2' square directly below the middle cannonball on the right-hand-side is already touching two cannonballs, so any other squares it’s touching must be blank.
- The two that I’ve marked inside a red square is touching one cannonball already, but is only touching one other square. Therefore, that second square must be a cannonball and should be marked with a flag.
ENCODED LETTERS
- In each level there will be one letter that has a coded message. You will be given a letter in which actual letters are replaced with symbols. It’s up to you to figure out which symbols go with which letters.
- The symbols and the alphabet are at the bottom of the page. Click and drag a letter from the alphabet over to one of the symbols above it. Once you place the letter next to the symbol, the symbols will be substituted by the letters in the coded letter itself.
- The best way to figure out these messages is by looking at the simple words first. Pick a 3 letter word and figure out what it could be. For example if you have '&ou' then you know that you must substitute the '&' for a 'Y'.
- Once you get the simple words out of the way then you can begin to look at more complex words. Find a word that may look familiar and experiment with the letters that you think may replace the symbols.
- If you make a mistake and place the wrong letter next to a symbol, you can right click on it and it will go back into inventory.
- Once the letter has been decoded then the actual letter will be revealed and placed in your clue box.

STRONG BAD: Whoa. Somebody on the inside. {lowers and shakes head} Get out soon, Taylor. {typing} What would I be like in a video game? Well, that all depends on what system we're talking about. Like, if it was on one of those really old machines..
{Cut to Atari 2600-style game, with an empty green rectangle imposed on a black screen.}
STRONG BAD:{voiceover} ..the graphics would probably only look kinda like me.
{A red square appears representing Strong Bad.}
STRONG BAD:{voiceover} And I'd run all around a futuristic maze—
{The square starts moving around the screen and some green blocks and blue glowing barriers appear.}
STRONG BAD:{voiceover} —collecting things that look nothing like me.
{A yellow square the same size as Strong Bad's square appears in the center of the maze.}
STRONG BAD:{voiceover} Man, that'd be pretty awesome!
{The red square approaches the yellow square and touches it, thereby 'collecting' it. The words 'secret collect!' appear on the screen. Cut back to the Compy 386.}
STRONG BAD:{typing} Ooh! Ooh! I could also be in one of those 3-D vector games.

{Cut to screen of said game. A corridor ending with a wall is outlined in red. Some moving arrows appear on the walls on either side.}
STRONG BAD:{voiceover} And there'd be this awesome, huge, 3D version of my head floatin' around.
{A vectorized version of Strong Bad's head appears on the screen}
STRONG BAD:{voiceover} Like, it looks so awesome, girls would probably try to make out with the screen
{Lipstick lips appear on the screen.}
STRONG BAD:{voiceover} and we'd have to program it to be like:
VECTOR STRONG BAD: BACK OFF BABY
{As it speaks, the words appear on the screen, then fall down and disappear.}
STRONG BAD:{voiceover} And in this one, the player wouldn't control me..
{Cut to Strong Bad at the Compy, shaking the camera}
STRONG BAD: 'Cuz you can't control me!
{Cut back to the vector game.}
STRONG BAD:{voiceover} Instead, you'd be some kinda 3D shield guy with a shield..
{A generic-looking guy with a shield appears on the bottom of the screen.}
STRONG BAD:{voiceover} Some kind of spikey-headed 3D cyber-shield guy.. with a cyber-shield.
{The appropriate changes are made so the shield guy is now spikey-headed and holding a striped 'cyber-shield.'}
STRONG BAD:{voiceover} And you'd have to block my perplexing 3D geometric attacks, or face certain 3D doom!
{Vector Strong Bad spits out a rhombus, which the cyber-shield guy blocks. Vector Strong Bad spits another rhombus, and this one hits the cyber-shield carrier in the face, causing it to explode.}
VECTOR STRONG BAD: YOUR HEAD A SPLODE
{Again, the words appear on the screen.}
STRONG BAD:{voiceover} Naturally, there'd be some problems with bad translation.
{Cut back to Compy 386.}
STRONG BAD:{typing} On the other hand, it might be cool to be in one of those text-based adventures. You know, for those intellectual people with better imaginations.
{Cut to a black screen with a green arrow at the top (and moving green lines), similar to the Tandy 400.}
STRONG BAD:{voiceover} It'd be like..
{reading text}
Ye find yeself in yon dungeon. Ye see a FLASK
Obvious exits are NORTH, SOUTH, and DENNIS.
What wouldst thou deau?
{Strong Bad doesn't say the last sentence.}
STRONG BAD:{voiceover} And you'd be all like..
Get ye flask
STRONG BAD:{voiceover} And it'd say,
You can't get ye flask!
STRONG BAD:{voiceover} And you'd just have to sit there and imagine why on Earth you can't get ye flask! Because the game's certainly not going to tell you.
{At this the screen adds 'I'm certainly not going to tell thou.'}
STRONG BAD:{voiceover} And there's no precious graphics to help you out, either!
{At this the screen adds 'Graphics, shmaphics.' and a few seconds later, ' . . for sooth!' Cut back to the computer.}
STRONG BAD:{typing} But oh, man. The best thing ever would be if I was in one of those brand new super-photorealistic games that take like tons of migs and megs of memories just to play it.
{Cut to a blue screen. A 16-bit version of Strong Bad appears.}
STRONG BAD:{voiceover} I'd look super-cool, runnin' around on some grass, maybe.
{The background changes to a 16-bit field against a blue sky.}
STRONG BAD:{voiceover} Where there'd be like, um.. a rhino there, too.
{A rhino falls down from the sky and some music starts playing.}
STRONG BAD:{voiceover} A hungry rhino!
{A food bowl appears in front of the rhino and it starts whining, jumping and turning red. Strong Bad runs around.}
STRONG BAD:{voiceover} And I'd have to, I guess.. feed him.
{A box labeled 'FOOD' appears. Strong Bad brings it to the rhino's bowl and it calms down, eating the food.}
STRONG BAD:{voiceover} And, umm.. snakes?
{Snakes pop up, wriggling up and down the screen. The rhino charges. Cut back to Compy 386.}
STRONG BAD:{typing} So hopefully one day technology will catch up with my advanced thinking, so all the ladies can start making out with their TV screens.
{Strong Bad stops typing; he turns around as he continues talking. He is holding a Cold One.}
STRONG BAD: Until next time, Taylor, this one's for you, and all my peoples got sent up the river.
{He pours his Cold One on the floor.}
{The Paper comes down. After about five seconds, the four games appear in their boxes.}
[edit] Easter Eggs
- Clicking on the StrongBadZone, RhinoFeeder, Thy Dungeonman, and Secret Collect. boxes will give a closer image of each box and (if JavaScript is enabled) a pop-up of the game itself.
[edit] Fun Facts
[edit]Explanations
- Strong Bad's statement about bad translation of StrongBadZone is a reference to the ubiquitous bad translation of Japanese-made NES-era games, the most infamous of which gave rise to the phrase, 'All your base are belong to us,' which was from the Sega Genesis port of the arcade game Zero Wing.
- When Strong Bad says 'migs and megs of memories,' he's talking about megabytes of computer memory.
- When Strong Bad mistakes Arizona for Alcatraz and says 'Whoa.. Somebody on the inside,' he is talking about the famous prison on Alcatraz Island (which actually hasn't been in use since 1963).
- The phrase 'sent up the river' is an American idiom referring to the Sing Sing Correction Facility in the village of Ossining, New York, due to Ossining being up the Hudson River from New York City.
- Secret Collect is playable on the FunMachine, while Rhino Feeder is playable on the Super FunMachine. The names of these systems are references to the NES and Super NES, respectively.
- However, the jump in graphics quality between the two games is more a reference to the graphics advances between the Atari 2600 and its successors, the Atari 5200 and 7800.
- Forsooth (misspelled here as 'for sooth') is an archaic word originally meaning 'in truth' but now usually used to express disbelief.
- Strong Bad pouring his Cold One for Taylor is a form of libation, a tradition where liquid is spilled to honor the memory of those who have fallen.
[edit] Trivia
- The label on the disk in the floppy disk container reads 'bio menace'.
- Even though Strong Bad threw out his Tandy long before this email, the text game he created seems to be on it instead of his Compy.
- The YouTube description for this email is 'Strong Bad describes what his video game would be like on various systems.'
[edit]Remarks
- When Strong Bad says 'YOU CAN'T CONTROL ME!' and he shakes the camera, the contrast on the computer can still be changed.
- The StrongBadZone game contains the 'BACK OFF BABY!' sequence, though it's only accessible when played with a seek bar or playing the Nintendo Wii version.
- Although this email was supposed to be about if Strong Bad was in a video game, in Thy Dungeonman his involvement with the game is only through what he types at the command line.
- Strong Bad mispronounces the word 'ye' in 'You can't get ye flask!' English used to contain two different symbols for the 'th' sound (Þ and Ð), but the first printing presses, built in Germany, did not contain those symbols, so English printers used the 'y' character to approximate the 'th' sound in the word 'the'. 'Ye' (the article) it is commonly confused with a different word, 'ye', which means 'you' (plural).
- Strong Bad mentions that no one can control him, yet he is the playable character in both Rhino Feeder and Secret Collect. Further releases contradict this claim as well, as Strong Bad is the playable character in the Egg Throwing Game, Fishing Challenge '91, Strong Bad's Treat Snatcha, and perhaps most notably, Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People.
[edit]Goofs
- When Strong Bad pours the drink out for Taylor, some of the dust at the top of the Compy's screen from the previous email is still there, though it was not visible in the rest of the email.
- When Strong Bad clears the screen after reading the email, the a> covers the text above for one frame.
- When Strong Bad shakes the camera after saying 'BECAUSE YOU CAN'T CONTROL ME!', the top of the Compy has a thin white line above it.
[edit]Real-World References
- Strong Bad's intro is possibly a reference to Pete Rose's book, 'My Prison Without Bars,' which was released the week before this email.
- The graphics in StrongBadZone closely resemble Virtual Boy games that used vector graphics, such as Red Alarm. The Virtual Boy used only black, and three shades of red. See the DVD commentary below for several other titles that The Brothers Chaps liken it to.
- The name Strong Bad Zone is likely a reference to Battlezone, another popular vector game.
[edit]Fast Forward
- StrongBadZone is featured in Main Page 21, the vector graphics page, which resembles the arcade game BattleZone.
- The phrase 'A Splode' is used several times later on.
- Ye Flask appears again in Thy Dungeonman, Thy Dungeonman II, and Thy Dungeonman 3.
- Even though game text in the email says 'graphics shmaphics', Thy Dungeonman 3 did use graphics.
- Additionally, the player can get ye flask in that game.
[edit] DVD Version
Red Square Game That Antonio Garza Plays
- None of the four games are playable. As well, the game boxes don't automatically come up. Instead, they are accessible via the hidden Strong Bad Icon on the Compy 386 screen.
- For the DVD, the Easter egg consists of samples of music from each game in turn.
- Strong Bad's Cold One continues pouring after The Paper comes down.
- The DVD version features hidden creators' commentary. To access it, switch the DVD player's audio language selection while watching.

[edit]Fun Facts
- Tempest and Battlezone are arcade games from 1980. They were famous for their colored vector graphics, which were very innovative for their time. 'The original Star Wars game' probably refers to Star Wars, the arcade game from 1983, which also features color vector graphics.
