Story
Level 1: Bereft
You're in a demented land where Bereft songs come to life! Fight off Burritos, Non-Stick Cookware, Big Plastic Chickens, Pet Monkeys, and more.
Level 2: He-Man
You are He-Man! Ride around on Battle Cat, and fight off Skeletor's evil henchmen, and hundreds of those robots from She-Ra. Then, Get to Castle Greyskull where Skeletor is waiting! Egad!
Instructions
Level 1: Bereft
Pick up the accordion (your weapon)
You can pick up the can of Beef Jerky, and the Pencil Sharpener to make them stop firing at you.
Grab the 5 dollars, but be careful not to waste it at the 1.95 Buffet. You'll need the money to pay off the Mystical Valet.
Level 2: He-Man
Don't get killed
Other than that, the controls are just like all the other games.
