Characters

 * Dillon
 * Russ
 * Governor Cappy
 * Stranger
 * Sal
 * Old Man Turtle

First Arrival
Governor Cappy: - Bienvenidos, señores! Long time, no see, muchachos!

Russ: - Cappy Tano...er, I mean, Governor Cappy, it sure has been a while!


 * ...Dillon.


 * Say hi, at least...


 * ............ Dillon, c'mon!

Governor Cappy: - Oh ho!! That Dillon, he hasn't changed in the slightest. He's still as silent as ever.


 * Sorry to cut to the chase, but our situation is a tad more pressing than I thought.

Russ: - So I see...


 * It's starting again, isn't it?

Governor Cappy: - Si. Grock dens are erupting all over the frontier.


 * They'll likely start raiding here tonight.

Russ: - They'll make a beeline for the village's herd of scrogs ...

Governor Cappy: - That's correct. They'll be comin' to eat the scrogs for certain.


 * If we lose all the scrogs, it will mean the end of this frontier village...

Russ: - Zero scrogs means game over...


 * Just as before, that gives us extra incentive to guard them!

Governor Cappy: - Uh-huh... That's about the size of it.


 * So, señores, you've got your work cut out for you. Ándele!

Prep Time
Russ: - Hey, buddy... Before the grocks attack...


 * Let's help the pioneers raise some more scrogs.


 * The scrogs will multiply if you feed them lots of their favorite grub: scruffles.


 * Let's gather up as many scruffles as we can and donate them to the villagers...


 * Enlarging the scrog herd will allow the village to hold out that much longer!


 * But first, we have to go pick some scruffles... Let's get moving, buddy!

Russ initiates a Tutorial:

Russ: - All right, pardner! Our first scrap in a while!


 * Shall I review the dash roll ?

[If you select no...]

Russ: - So you're all set, huh? All righty, do your best!

End of the Tutorial

[If select yes...]

Russ: - Dillon will roll into a ball when you hold the stylus on the Touch Screen.


 * Without lifting it, slide the stylus back...


 * and then release the stylus to make Dillon roll forward!


 * You slide the stylus on the Touch Screen, and then lift it to roll.


 * Do you want to hear the explanation again?


 * By the way, if you just hold the stylus in one spot on the Touch Screen...


 * you'll put on the brakes. Give it a try!

End of the Tutorial

After entering one Mine...


 * Ranger’s Guide


 * Mine locations change on a daily basis. If you find one, get digging at once.

After entering in a mine for a second time...


 * Ranger’s Guide


 * Use multiple weak attacks when mining.


 * The more hits you score, the more items you'll dig up.

After encounters an ancient ruins and entering it...


 * Ranger’s Guide


 * Treasure can be found in the ancient ruins.

Russ: - Dillon! Let me see you use your claw brake!


 * Just press the L Button while rolling!


 * It looks really cool!

[After 5 minutes in the plains.]

Russ: - Hey! Look at the sky...


 * The village will be locked during a raid.


 * If you've got business in the village, do it now!

[After 6 minutes in the plains.]

Russ: - The grocks' raid is about to begin!


 * They'll eat the scrogs if they get into the village,


 * but if you can defeat some first, then...


 * less damage to the village means more money for you!


 * But if all the scrogs get eaten...


 * it's game over for us!


 * Now let's show them what we're made of!

Free Time (Saloon) Day 1
Governor Cappy: - Well, Dillon...that was some serious fighting.


 * Thanks to your efforts, the village didn't suffer much.


 * I'm delighted no one was hurt. That's very important.


 * Of course, it was also thrilling to witness your fighting skill!

Russ: - Buddy! Come take a look at this.


 * I jotted down a few notes and created a report about the results of our battle.


 * I figured this know-how would help us plan for tomorrow's fight.

Governor Cappy: - Muy bien! If I didn't know better, I'd think you two were professionals.


 * After all, the grocks will attack for two more days. You need to plan ahead.


 * Oh! One more thing, Dillon.


 * There's a private room on the other side of that curtain in the back of the saloon.


 * Some townsfolk have quests you can take on.


 * If you do what they ask, you'll earn extra dinero.


 * Go see what they want, if you're so inclined...

[Select End the Day in the upstairs to proceed.]

Governor Cappy: - Dillon, I've got something for you...


 * In anticipation of your activity here, a blacksmith made these just for you.


 * They're spikes. You can use them starting mañana.

Prep Time
Russ: - Good morning, buddy...


 * How are those spikes on your back feel?


 * Woah! They look fantastic!


 * With these things, you'll be able to grind those grocks into sand!


 * The metal spikes attach neatly onto the armored plates of Dillon's back!


 * You can now use the grind attack!


 * When you hit an enemy with a dash roll attack...


 * tap the Touch Screen and hold it there!


 * Dillon will continue to roll, and the spikes will grind against the enemy.


 * Check out the Game Guide if you need to review these instructions.

Russ: - The grind attack is also a very effective mining technique.


 * Don't forget that the shards and nuggets you mine from rocks...


 * can be used as construction materials to build up the defense gates !


 * Defense gates are great!


 * Even is some grocks slip past you...


 * the defense gates will prevent the grocks from entering the village.


 * OK, buddy! Let's do our best today too!

[After 5 minutes in the plains.]

Russ: Did you hear that? It’s almost time...


 * If you wanna go to the village, go now!

[After 6 minutes in the plains.]

Russ: - Watch out! The grocks are coming!

Free Time (Saloon) Day 2
Governor Cappy: - Well done, Dillon. You're not hurt, are you?

Russ: - Dillon is all right, I assure you.


 * But more importantly, is everyone in the village OK?

Governor Cappy: - Ah, don't worry. They're just a little shook up, that's all.


 * By the way...


 * There's something I haven't told you yet.


 * News is coming from the frontier train stations west of here...


 * Grocks are attacking the railroad.

Russ: - What?! The railroad?! But why the trains?


 * It seems odd that the grocks would attack something other than scrogs.

Governor Cappy: - Si, and because of the attacks, the trains have stopped running.

Russ: - That sounds bad... With the trains not running...


 * all sorts of supplies won't make it to those towns deep in the frontier lands.

Governor Cappy: - Exactly, and the situation is getting critical. If we don't act quickly...


 * we won't be able to get the supplies to those who need them to survive!

Russ: - So what do we need to do, Governor Cappy?

Governor Cappy: - Well, I've got a few ideas...


 * We've requested support from the railroad company for our relief efforts.


 * I hope to hear back from them soon.


 * Once I get their response, we'll talk again about a more detailed plan.


 * First, we need to consider protecting this frontier station...


 * since it's the starting point for the line and is key to dealing with this problem.

[Select End the Day in the upstairs to proceed.]

Prep Time
Russ: - Buddy! Today should be the final day the grocks attack this village!


 * We've saved up a lot of money the past couple days.


 * It might be helpful to spend some on weapons for the towers.


 * The shotgun is the ideal weapon to protect a tower from grock attacks.


 * It doesn't have much range, but it's quite powerful and can shoot in all directions.


 * For medium-range fire, the best weapon is the Gatling gun.


 * It has a longer range and can fire continuously.


 * For true power, though, you'll want a cannon, of course!


 * Its rate of fire is not all that great, but it deals a lot of damage to the area it hits !


 * Each weapon, besides the shotgun, has its own unique field of fire...


 * But you'll need to trust the village's Coyote troopers to aim and fire the guns.

[After 5 minutes in the plains.]

Russ: Did you hear that? It’s almost time...


 * If you wanna go to the village, go now!

[After 6 minutes in the plains.]

Russ: - Watch out! The grocks are coming!

Raid Time
[After end the Raid Time (defeating all grocks or the duration time expires), a curtscene of Dens disappearing in the ground is displayed.]

Russ: - We did it! The dens are collapsing!

Free Time (Saloon) Day 3
Governor Cappy: - You did it! Well done, both of you!


 * On behalf of the villagers, I thank you!


 * Now it's time to relax for a while. This village is safe for now.


 * But before you settle down for a quick siesta, I'd like to talk to you.


 * I have an update on the plan from here on out.

[Select End the Day in the upstairs to proceed.]

Governor Cappy: - Señores... Remember what I told you about before?


 * The railroad company has agreed to cooperate in order to avert the crisis.


 * It seems they were already moving forward with their own plan...


 * We want you to ride shotgun on the supply train.


 * The train will leave from this village and make its way all the way to the west coast.

Russ: - Wha... West coast ?! That's a long trip!

Governor Cappy: - Lots of villages along the rail line are no longer getting goods due to grock damage.


 * After a few weeks, they'll will be in pretty bad shape.


 * But with your expertise in fighting defensive battles...


 * we're confident you can ensure the train's safe passage.

Russ: - So, to sum up, you'll load up the train with medicine and other important stuff...


 * and we'll make sure it delivers the goods without getting derailed by grocks?

Governor Cappy: - That's the long and short of it...

Russ: - We'll have to protect the villagers AND the train...


 * That'll be our biggest challenge.


 * Wow, talk about double duty!

Governor Cappy: - That is correct...


 * You will need to protect the train, and at the same time...


 * defend the villages that the railway passes through.


 * Can you do it?

Russ: - It's not a question of whether or not we CAN do it...


 * It's a question of will we or won't we... right, buddy?

Dillon take the upstairs.

Russ: - Dillon will do it.


 * He might be the only one who is even capable of doing it!


 * And I'll help too. We'll show you how to get this done.

[Appears the results page of this stage now.]

Out on the Train
Russ: - Dillon... Is it me or is this train REALLY slow?

Old Man Turtle: - Quiet, you!


 * I'm frustrated too! But...


 * I recieved explicit instructions from the boss! She said: "DO NOT SPEED!"

Russ: - What? Did she tell you why you can't go any faster than this?

Old Man Turtle: - She said something about something fragile in the cargo car.


 * But when I looked, I didn't see anything of the sort...

Russ: - What's in there, besides food and medicine?

Old Man Turtle: - I don't have a clue!


 * And if I knew, I'm not sure I'd tell you! Of all the tomfoolery...

[Dillon and Russ get off the train]

Old Man Turtle: - Hey, listen up, you two.


 * We still have a ways to go before we get to the next village...


 * Are you going to complain the whole rest of the way?

Russ: - Nah, we'll go ahead. I mean, your train-- it's just so slow!


 * We'll make sure the tracks are clear before you arrive.

Old Man Turtle: - Okay, got it. You two take care, all right?


 * Hey! I'm just following orders, you know!!
