3.8/5 (102 votes)

Boondog is an action/puzzle platformer similar to classic titles such as Another World and the original Prince of Persia. The main character is quite the acrobat, able to jump, climb, and leap all over the place at will. The action is parceled out in simple moves, though, forcing you to perform your physical feats one step at a time, and only after careful thought and execution. Add to that a bit of Sokoban-style barrel pushing and you've got an excellent diversion that tests both mental and physical reflexes.

I'm stuck on level 4 too!

MmeTurbulence October 26, 2010 12:34 PM

I was stuck on 4 for a long time. The trick is

After you go down off a ledge into a catgrab, hit x to jump to the next ledge. This way you can cover a gap of three spaces, when you can only jump two spaces if you start from a standing position

erm. Am I missing something on level seven?

This is another game that doesn't appear to fit the jayisgames.com template. The game window is too small for the game.

m, for level 7

You have to run around the level twice... climb all the ledges on the left side using jump and grab, run across the top, down the bottom. Push the barrel one space to the left. Then you can use the switch to turn off the right-side laser, climb back up to the top, across, down the left, and use the now-moved barrel to climb to the exit.

My problem with this game in general is that there are lots of levels in which you have to run around the whole place twice to hit switches, lather, rinse, repeat. That and the use of "X" for both standing jump AND push is a major nuisance; I've often tried to 'X' to hop onto a barrel instead of up-arrow and would up pushing the barrel into a corner and having to restart. How hard would it have been to map push to a different key?

Reply

for level 7:

you must get to the right side of the room then push the barrel to the left. then grab onto the left side of the single block. from there you can jump onto the other ledge (pressing the button). from there you climb back up and go back to the left side. you now can jump on top of the barrel (using up, not X) and climb up to the teleporter

ben holtzman October 26, 2010 1:43 PM

in level 7:

you need to get to the right of the room, which is not hard, push the barrel to the left, get back to the left, and then you can get on the barrel and get up to the end

Stuck on 16. Why won't the barrel move off the second moving belt?

Reply

The barrel on far left starts 2nd belt in 16

17, its all about stacking barrels to push
barrels. Plus, once you have stacked, you can
push the bottom ones.

Hint

Do not push the fourth button till you have moved the two higher barrels down twice each.

Spoiler

stand on first button till barrel drops
stand on last button (Do not step on fourth button) till barrel drops again
stand on second button (Do not step on fourth button) till barrel drops
stand on fourth button till barrel drops
stand on third button till barrel hits switch
run for the exit

Thanks abyss, won the game with lot of trials and deaths, though the game ends with a "Game Completed, Thanks for playing" on a small square, a button to the main menu and some guitar music, not worth all that effort and missing story.

Reply

Yeah, finally beat it after a rage quit early this day. I hated the level with the huge amount of barrels... and the moving plataform in 19 seemed that you could start it at any cycle of laser changes and the game might become harder or impossible to beat.

Could someone make a walkthrough for 17?

Oh bite me, level 15: where my hatred surpasses my enjoyment.

17 Sorta walkthrough

Labeling the barrels as follows to make things easier.

--1---2---4----5--
------------------
--6--7---8--9--X--

6 left, left
1 right, right
2 left, left, left, right
Conveyor to move 6 right, right
6 right, right
7 right
8 right, right
X right, right
5 left, left
4 right, right, right, right, left
conveyor to move X left, left
X left, left
9 left
You now have a stack of 3 barrels on the right, push out the bottom barrel, push it left into the hole. Push out the next barrel, push it left onto the switch. Push the last barrel down and right on the last switch.
Head to the exit

i think level 10 is IMPOSSIBLE!!! can someone help me?

Reply

alex:

You have to go around the level 3 times, Push the button on the bottom left the first time, middle button on second pass(jump as soon as you step on the conveyor belt at the bottom to get in there; this was the most annoying part of the entire game for me). Third time around press the button in the top left corner.

Reply

having trouble with level 13 - anyone?

Reply

I still don't understand 16. Is mine broken? I stand on the first button and the barrel goes down the long belt and drops. Then I go to the last button and stand on it. The belt, which the barrel is now on, moves but the barrel does not. It just sits there in the same place, while the belt is moving under it. What's wrong?

Reply

Interesting as a puzzle game once I'd got over the frustrations of assuming the controls were from another type of more immediate platforming game.

I think it's a balance between player expectation (assuming it's one sort of puzzle game) and the fact that it's actually more of a 'key-pressing' game (i.e. that it's less about the dynamic of the character on screen running and jumping, but more about pressing left left x c c space etc...

Reply

16, I would say it's an error on your end; if the barrel is on the conveyor, and the conveyor is moving, the barrel should move.

It's a good game, but it needs an "undo" option. Getting through almost the entire level only to press the wrong key and kill yourself makes the game ridiculously frustrating.

Reply

I just finished game and I think It's great. But I think so NOW. When I played it and had to repeat whole level, because I felt down and died just before reaching exit, I thought this game is #@**#!! (really frustrating). And I'm sure it's rather low rating is result of that.

Like Juxta I think UNDO button is really needed. I know that this could interfere with time measuring, so maybe make two modes?

Maybe it's just me, but I noticed that I can change game speed when I was in level 19, so a bit late (although it's propably usufull only in that level). I think this feature should be more exposed.

And, I would love to play more levels or see sequel soon!
