Coraline and her family have just moved to a new place called The Pink Palace. She is having a
tough time adjusting without her friends around and is just plain bored. Her parents are working so
much that her cries for attention go unnoticed, but with her Mother's help she finds places to explore
that are beyond her wildest dreams. She is transported to a world that looks the same at first glance;
however, she notices everyone gives her the attention she feels she deserves.
Help Coraline to find the true value of family as she faces the temptation of a perfect life... with a not
so small cost. Collect clothes, find buttons, and make some friends as you guide Coraline through two
different worlds!

Walkthrough
This is the part of the guide that will help you get through any part of the game that you are
having trouble passing. The walkthrough is broken up day by day to make it easier for you to locate
the correct part of the walkthrough that you are looking for.
Day 1 – The Real World:
After talking with Charlie about your new home, The Pink Palace, go inside.
Walk up the stairs, and at the top of the stairs, take a left and head for your
parent's bedroom. Before going through the door to their room, walk all the
way to the end of the hallway and you'll see a blue sparkle. Walk up to the
sparkle and Touch the Interactive Icon and Coraline will pick up a Cave
Cricket.
D3Publisher of America, Inc.

Coraline – Nintendo DS
After you enter their room, walk over to the door on the left and go inside
the Bathroom. In the Bathroom you can play the mini game “Shower Bugs.”
If you score 100 points or more, you'll receive a surprise!
After you're done squashing bugs, make your way to the Kitchen and talk to
Mel. The first time you talk to her, she'll tell you to leave her alone. Just
pester her again and she'll tell you about a mysterious well on a nearby hill.
Exit through the door on the left side of the Kitchen and you'll find yourself
outside. Walk down the path and you'll see a stick with a with blue sparkle
on it. Walk over to the stick, Touch the Interactive Icon, and Coraline will
pick the stick up.
If you return to the front of the Pink Palace, you'll see another blue sparkle.
Move Coraline over to it and Touch the Interactive Icon to pick up a Snake
Skin!
Return to the side of the house and head left past the stairs leading into the
Kitchen and follow the path to the Well! On the next screen, you'll see
another blue sparkle, walk up to it and Touch the Interactive Icon and
Coraline will pick up the Poison Mushroom.
Keep walking left and on the next screen you'll see a Cat resting in the
middle of the path. Talk to the Cat, let him know that you just moved into the
neighborhood, and ask him if he has any information about the old well.
After you realize that he's a Cat and can't talk, you'll test out the magic
dowser rod that you found. In this mini game, just Touch the Touch Screen
and Coraline will try to use her dowsing powers to find the old water well.
While your trying to find the well through the magic of dowsing, a voice will
start talking to you. Wybie walks on-screen and introduces himself. After a
brief conversation, Wybie points you in the direction of the well.

Coraline – Nintendo DS
When you get to the well, you notice that it's
covered up. That cover is too heavy for Coraline to
lift up so Wybie lends a hand. Through teamwork,
they get the lid off the well and have a look inside.
Touch the rock sitting on the right side of the well
and drag it into the well. When you're ready, lift up
your Stylus and drop the rock into the well.
Afterwards, Wybie will ask your name and give you a doll that looks
suspiciously like you. Make your way back to the house by following the
path to the right. Along the path you'll encounter the Cat again. Talk to him
and he'll take off running. Just keep making your way back to the house.
Once you reach the Pink Palace, head for your Father's Study. He will
comment on the Doll Wybie gave you looking similar to you. Return to the
hallway and you will see a mouse. Quickly chase it into the Living Room
where it disappears!
You'll see that the box on the left side of the room has been moved and there
is an odd square object in the wall. Run and tell Mel! She'll be mad that you
interrupted her, but she'll show you what's behind the tiny door in the Living
Room. Walk over to the little door and Touch the Interactive Icon and Mel
will instruct you on how to open the tiny door.
All you have to do is Touch the Keyhole with the Stylus and the door will open, revealing...
...a brick wall. How disappointing. Well, time for a nap.
After a good nap, we're all a little hungry, so head on down to the Kitchen. In
there you'll find Mel busily working on her article. Bother her a couple of
times just for fun, then head out to the front porch of the Pink Palace. You'll
see a blue sparkle on your right and when you approach it and Interactive
Icon will appear. Touch the Interactive Icon and Coraline will pick up the
large amount of mail.

Coraline – Nintendo DS
Luckily she notices the address and decides to take the large, stinky package
up to Mr. Bobinsky. After walking down the steps and heading to the right,
you'll notice the Cat lying in the path. You can talk to him, but he's just a lazy
rude Cat and doesn't have much to say.
Take the package up to the Attic where Mr. Bobinsky lives and knock on his
door. Bobinsky will take the package, give you a slice of training- the-micecheese, and kick you out of his attic apartment. But before you are able to
leave, the mice give you an ominous message: “Don't go through the little
door.” Hmmm... curious.
Continue on down the stairs and once you get back to the front of the house
you will see Wybie and the black Cat waiting for you.
Talk to them and then go into the kitchen to have a chat with dear, old Mel
and Charlie. After talking to Mel, Charlie will finish cooking and announce
that dinner is ready! After a short cutscene and a “gross-gusting” meal of
oatmeal porridge, swiss chard braise, and tofu ice cream you'll find yourself
back in Coraline's room.
She hears a strange sound and decides to investigate. After making your way
downstairs, you find one of Mr. Bobinsky's jumping mice waiting for you in
the hallway! How could such a tiny mouse make so much racket!? Follow
him into the Living Room.
Run over to the little door in the wall and you'll notice that Mel left the key
in the lock. All you have to do is Touch the key in the keyhole with the
Stylus and the door will open, revealing...
D3Publisher of America, Inc.
Page 12
Coraline – Nintendo DS
...a tunnel! When you follow the tunnel through to the other side you
emerge... back in your own living room!? That can't be right, can it? You
better explore some more!
Check all of the rooms! Some of the rooms are locked, but all offer some
new sights and surprises! Make sure to check the closet under the stairs!
Inside a talking toy parrot will give you a Stripey Sweater.
Head to the kitchen last. There you'll find Other Mother cooking away.
When you talk to her, she'll explain that everybody has an Other Mother,
and that dinner is ready and you should go get Other Father in his Study.
Don't worry, Other Mother is telling the truth! The door to Father's Study is
unlocked. When you enter his Study, you'll find him attached to a strange
contraption coming out of the piano. While you're talking to him, he explains
that he's not playing the piano, but that the piano is playing him! He sings a
jaunty little song about you, and then it's off to dinner!
After a quick cutscene, it's time to play the Chicken Leg mini game. Just
Touch the roast chicken's leg to pull it off and then place it on your plate. Do
this three times and you win! After Dinner, you'll get a cutscene explaining
about the Other World.
After the cutscene and before you head up to bed, visit the parrot in the
closet under the stairs one more time. He'll give you another new costume:
the Pajamas! Go on upstairs and into your room. Other Mother and Other
Father will be there waiting to tuck you in. After a quick cutscene with some
talking toys, you're off to sleep, snug and secure in your new Other life!

Day 2 – The Real World/Other World:
Hey! Wait a second! Didn't you fall asleep in the Other World!? Well you
had better go tell someone about that strange tunnel behind the little door!
Mel, as usual, is working hard in the kitchen on her article. When you tell
her the story, she ignores you and suggests you go bother Ms. Spink and Ms.
Forcible in the basement apartment.
Exit the kitchen through the door on the left side of the room, and make your
way outside. Walk down the stairs, down the path, and to the right. Follow
the path on the right side of the screen and use the transition arrow to go to
the corner of the house and the entrance to the basement apartment. Make
your way down the stairs to the door and Touch the Interactive Icon.
Three “Scottie” dogs will appear at the door, but Ms. Spink shoos them
away and invites you in for some tea. After you relate your story to them,
they offer to read your tea leaves. First, you must drink your tea and blow
away the steam. Here, you get to play the Tea-Leaf mini game. All you have
to do is blow into the microphone to clear away the steam from the teacup.
Afterwards, Ms. Spink and Ms. Forcible will read your tea leaves. They will
tell you to be cautious in everything you do, and to not wear green in your
dressing room.
After leaving Spink and Forcible's basement apartment, go to the front of the
house and Wybie will explain the origins of the Doll that looks suspiciously
like you. Head back into the house after getting your leaves read and talking
to Wybie, and make your way into the downstairs hallway. There you'll
encounter the same mouse from before! Follow him into the Living Room
and you'll discover that he's disappeared! You reason that he probably went
through the little door.
If you go pester Mel in the Kitchen again she'll let you look for the Black
Key in the Drawer on the right side of the Kitchen. When you press the
Interactive Icon you'll be taken to a mini-game that takes place inside the
drawer full of keys. Just Touch the Keys you would like to move, then drag
them off of the Black Key in the drawer. After you've moved all of the keys
off of the Black Key, you'll get the Black Key and now you can proceed to
the Living Room and more importantly the little door to the Other World.
D3Publisher of America, Inc.
Page 14
Coraline – Nintendo DS
Just Touch the Interactive Icon by the little door to begin the Door Opening
mini-game and Touch the keyhole to open the door. Once the door is open,
Touch the transition icon to go into the Tunnel.
In the Other World go straight to the Kitchen. You'll find Other Mother there
cooking up something that's probably going to be delicious! When you talk
to her, she'll explain that she has a surprise waiting for you in the Garden
with Other Father. Go out the back door of the Kitchen into the Garden and
you'll see Other Father standing alongside a praying mantis-tractor.
When you talk to him, he'll explain that there are presents that you must find in the Garden. Run back
up the steps and proceed to the left side of the screen. When you get the Transition arrow, Touch it and
Other Father will wish you luck! In the Present Finding mini-game, you must find three presents in 2
minutes!
Watch out for the carnivorous plants! If you run
into one, quickly rub it with the Stylus to make it
let go of you! You'll know you've located a present
when you see a sparkling light appear on the
ground. Just walk up to the sparkle and Coraline
will automatically pick it up. The presents are a
Button-eyed Rain Frog, a RainCoat, and 10
Buttons!
When you find all of the presents you'll automatically be taken back to where
Other Father is standing. He will then give you your final present: a ride in
the praying mantis-tractor!
After seeing what Other Father has made the Garden into, walk back into the
Kitchen to have another chat with Other Mother. She'll introduce you to
Other Wybie and inform you that you've been invited to Mr. Bobinsky's
Jumping Mouse Circus! Follow Wybie out into the Hallway and he'll lead
you down the hall and out the front door. In the front of the Pink Palace,
he'll wait for you again and then walk up the stairs to Mr. Bobinsky's Attic
Apartment.
D3Publisher of America, Inc.
Page 15
Coraline – Nintendo DS
Follow him up the stairs and then knock on Mr. Bobinsky's door. When you
enter Mr. Bobinsky's Apartment, you'll be given a choice. Should you go
inside the Tent in the room? If you want to see the Jumping Mouse Circus,
choose “Yes!” Once you've entered the Tent Mr. Bobinsky appears and you
get to play the Mice Circus mini-game.
The Mice Circus mini-game consists of you pressing the button or Touching
the corresponding Mouse playing an instrument to the Musical Instruments
sliding across the top of the screen. When the Musical Instrument slides
across the screen and gets to the square on the left side of the screen, Touch
the Mouse playing the instrument or press the button corresponding to the
Mouse playing that Instrument.
The closer the Musical Instrument is to the center of the square the more
points you will earn. A blue spark means you got a Perfect Hit! After the
game is over, you and Wybie will leave Mr. Bobinsky's Apartment. When
you talk to him, you'll ask him if he had fun playing with you and you'll ask
him to go on another play date at a later time.
Make your way back into the Pink Palace and proceed to the Living Room.
Inside you'll find Other Mother waiting for you on the couch. When you talk
to her, she'll remind you that you had a busy day and that it's time for bed.
When you wake up in the morning you're in your real room!
Day 3 – The Real World/Other World/Real World/Other
World/Real World:
The next morning, head down to Father's Study and use the Interactive Icon
by his desk. Hmmm... he's not there. He must be running errands.
Well then you'd better go see what Mel is doing.
Use the Interactive Icon by
the table, she's not there either! I can't believe they left Coraline all alone in
a new house! Well, better go explore some more then! Go up to Bobinsky's
Attic Apartment and trade him for the cheese that you're holding onto and
he'll give you a new hat!

Coraline – Nintendo DS
Next, go down to Ms. Spink and Ms. Forcible's apartment and knock on the
door. But when they answer they just invite you over for some more tea. Tea
is fine and all, but it is pretty boring. Once you leave their apartment, you
remind yourself that Other Mother is the only one who cares for you. You
should go back and see her!
Walk down the path that's on the side of the Pink Palace and you'll meet up
with the Black Cat again. If you talk to him, you'll be reminded that your
parents don't care about you and that the Other Mother is the only one who
does. Make your way back into the house and go into the Living Room.
Proceed to the little door and you'll discover that it's locked. Oh well, you
know where the key is! Go back into the Kitchen and go into the drawer on
the right side of the Kitchen. Play the Black Key finding mini-game again
and pick up the Black Key. When you go back into the Living Room, turn
the key in the lock of the Little Door and Coraline will remember what the
Other Mother told her: to bring the key with her the next time she comes
back. Open the door and proceed through the tunnel.
In the Other World, make your way into the Kitchen. On the Table, you'll
see a silver tray with a sparkle above it. When you Touch the Interactive
Icon you'll notice there's a card on the Tray telling you to place the Black
Key on it. You'll get a wonderful present if you do!
When you place the Black Key on the tray a present will appear. Inside the
present is a Blue Sweater and another Note. The Note states that you've been
cordially invited to Ms. Spink and Ms. Forcible's play which is going to take
place shortly in the basement. Take the ticket that you got in the present and
proceed to Ms. Spink and Ms. Forcible's apartment.
D3Publisher of America, Inc.
Page 17
Coraline – Nintendo DS
When you get there the Black Cat is waiting for you. He explains (yes, Cats
can talk in the Other World, just read, he explains this) that he can talk, that
he is himself because there is no “Other Cat,” that he can go wherever he
wants (that means that he can travel between the worlds), and that you
should be careful of the witch that is Other Mother. When he's done with his
cryptic warnings, he'll run off and you can go watch the play!
Head down the stairs and knock on the door using the Interactive Icon. You'll
be invited inside, after you provide your ticket to the Dog with button eyes at
the door, and you'll be seated next to you your friend Wybie who's already
waiting for you. You'll be treated to a dazzling performance about a sea witch
and a mermaid. Afterwards, you and Wybie will be taken outside.
Proceed up the stairs and to the front of the house where you'll meet up with
Other Father. When you talk to him, he'll explain that Other Mother has a
surprise for you that will allow you to stay in the Other World forever. This
is a great time to go play the Mice Circus mini game again. If you do really
well Mr. Bobinsky will give you the Jacket! Once you have gotten the
Jacket, go inside the Pink Palace and make your way to the Dining Room. In
there you'll find Other Mother with a present waiting for you.
Touch the Interactive Icon over the present to open it and you'll find two
black buttons and a needle and thread. Other Mother wants to sew buttons
over your eyes so that you can stay in the Other World forever! No way! You
better get out of the Other World quick!
Remember how the other two times you went to sleep in the Other World
you woke up in the real world? I bet it'll happen again if you try it now!
Make your way up to your Bedroom and walk up to the bed. When you
Touch the Interactive Icon on the side of the bed by the Dinosaur Skeleton
you'll be given the choice whether or not to go to sleep. Choose Yes and
you'll be taken to the Nightmare mini-game!
In this mini-game, rub Coraline to make her run faster, Touch the hands that
come from the sides of the screen to make them disappear, and Touch the Cat
when he comes along to make him walk with you. If too many hands come
from the side of the screen and you have the Black Cat walking with you,
you can Touch him again and he'll scare all of the hands away!

If you score really well on this mini-game you'll be rewarded with the Blue
Boots! When the Nightmare mini-game ends, you'll wake up still in the
Other World! Make your way down the stairs and outside. Go down to Ms.
Spink and Ms. Forcible's apartment and talk to the Dog with button eyes.
The Dog will offer you three items in a row: the Button Hair Clip for 10
Buttons, the Star Shirt for 25 Buttons, and the Brown Boots for 15 Buttons.
After buying the items you want, make your way back inside and into the
Living Room.
You'll notice that it's changed considerably and so has Other Mother! After
talking to her, and watching her eat Chocolate Beetles from Zanzibar
(gross!), she'll tell you that you need some obedience training and will throw
you into the mirror!
In the mirror room run over to the bed and Touch the Interactive Icon. Keep
Touching the Interactive Icon until the Ghost Children appear. Touch the
Interactive Icon each time it appears over the center ghost's head and they'll
tell you a little more of their sad story about how Other Mother, the Beldam,
captured them by spying on them through the button eyes of the doll and
lured them into the Other World with treats and love.
Soon, the Black Cat will arrive and will show you the way out of the mirror
prison. Go to the lower left corner of the screen and Touch the Interactive
Icon. There, Other Wybie will pull you through the mirror and back into the
Pink Palace! He'll then give you the Black Key back. Run into the Living
Room and go over to the Little Door. Once you interact with the Door and
open it, you'll invite Other Wybie back with you, but the Beldam sees that
you've escaped and Other Wybie will go slow her down.
Once you're back in the Real World and you go searching around for your parents, you'll notice that
they still aren't home! Run down to Spink and Forcible's apartment to find out where they've gone.
There the women will give you a piece of 100 Year Old Candy that has a hole in it. It's got to be useful,
why else would they hold on to it for so long?
Once you've got the candy, make your way back out to the front of the
House and you'll find Wybie standing around. He'll ask you for the Doll
back and you'll erupt into a tirade about how he gave you the Doll so that
the Beldam can spy on you. Your shouting will scare him so much that he
runs away letting you go search for you parents again.

Make your way back inside the Pink Palace through the front door and you'll
encounter the Black Cat lying in the hall waiting for you. Talk to him and
he'll lead you over to the mirror in the hallway. When you Touch the
Interactive Icon, you'll discover that your parents have been trapped inside
the mirror! Well the only thing to do to get them free is to go back into the
Other World!
Walk into the Living Room and you'll find the Black Cat and the Beldam's
Doll. Touch the Interactive Icon over the doll and you'll be taken over to the
fireplace. Throw the Doll into the fireplace by dragging the Doll in an
upward motion towards the fireplace. After burning the spying Doll, the
only thing left to do is to save the kids and your parents! Go over to the
Little Door and Touch the keyhole to turn the key and open the door.
In the tunnel you'll encounter the Black Cat again. He'll call you foolish for
going back to the Other World, but you have to save your parents and the
only way to do that is to go back into the Other World! The Black Cat
agrees, but the Beldam won't just give your parents back to you. He suggests
that you challenge the Beldam to a game. The only way you'll be able to get
your parents back will be to challenge the Beldam to a game and to win! He
warns you that she won't play fair, but that's a chance you're willing to take
to get your parents back!
In the Other World the Beldam will be waiting for you in the Living Room.
You explain the game to her and she agrees, on one condition, that you give
the Black Key to her. The object of the game is to find the three ghost
children's eyes and to find your parents. After a brief conversation with the
wicked Beldam about the rules, you walk out into the hallway.
Coraline mentions something about the worthless Candy in her pocket. Walk
over to the Mirror and Touch the Interactive Icon. In the Mirror's reflection,
you'll notice something glowing in your pocket. Maybe that candy isn't
worthless after all...
The first place you need to go is to the Garden, go up the stairs and near the
entrance to the bridge on the left side. There you'll get the 100 Year Old
Candy Icon for the first time. Touch the 100 Year Old Candy Icon at the top
of the Touch Screen and you'll look through it. When you locate the red
glowing object, Touch it! That's the Ghost Eye!

When you Touch it, you'll be taken into a mini-game where you have to run
away from Other Father and his Mantis Tractor! Use the B button to slow
down and use the +Control Pad or the Touch Screen and Stylus to make
Coraline move from side to side. Avoid the rocks in the path or the Mantis
Tractor will get you! When you make it to the entrance to the bridge, you get
the Ghost Eye!
The next Ghost Eye is located in Spink and Forcible's apartment in the
basement. Go inside and Touch the 100 Year Old Candy Icon. This Ghost
Eye will be glowing blue. Touch it and you'll be taken to a quick mini-game
where you have to open a sack. Just Touch the top of the Sack and it will
open allowing you to get the second Ghost Eye.
Make your way outside and run to Mr. Bobinsky's Apartment. Touch the 100
Year Old Candy Icon. Look for the purple glow of the Ghost Eye! When you
Touch it, you'll be taken to a mini-game where you have to throw balls at the
large evil-looking Mouse. The large Mouse has the Ghost Eye and you need
to hit him six times to get it back!
To throw the balls at the large Mouse, walk Coraline to the ball so she picks
it up and then drag the Stylus towards the top of the Touch Screen in the
direction of the large Mouse. Watch out for the little Mice running back and
forth across the screen! If you hit them with the balls, they'll disappear, but
will come back in just a few moments from the side of the screen. The bigger
Black balls with the button-crossbones on them will go right over the little
Mice and will hit the Big Mouse if you throw it right. If you see one of the
big balls, grab it quickly before it disappears! Once you've hit the large
Mouse six times, he'll give you the final Ghost eye and you can go look your
parents! Now proceed back to the front of the house and go inside.
Find the Parrot sitting in the closet under the stairs and he'll ask if you are
looking for something. He will then give you the option to open a chest for
10 buttons! When you agree you'll be given the choice of three chests.
Choose the chest nearest to the Parrot and you'll get the Snow Globe that
contains your parents!

Proceed down the hall and you'll see the Cat. Talk to him and he'll tell you
that the Beldam will go back on her promise. Go into the Living Room with
the Cat and confront the Beldam. After confronting the Beldam, you'll turn
and apologize to the Black Cat. Why? Because in the next scene, your going
to Touch the Cat and drag him quickly towards the top of the screen,
throwing him at the Beldam's face!
You'll run for the door and the Black Cat will follow. Once you make it back
into the Real World, you'll be taken into a mini-game where you have to
close the tiny door. Just Touch Coraline's right hand and drag it over to the
key in the lock. You'll close the door and cut off the Beldam's right hand!
Now that you've escaped, start looking for your parents. Wait a minute,
they're still not here!? Well, maybe Mr. Bobinsky has an answer as to where
they are. Go up to his apartment and talk to him. When you do, he'll relate
another message from the mice to you. The mice tell you to beware of the
Beldam's right hand! Go back downstairs and into the front door of the
house. Go to the Kitchen, interact with the table, then return to the front door.
When you do, you'll hear Mom and Dad outside. Coraline will run outside to
the front of the house and there you'll meet up with your parents!
Day 4 – The Real World
During the night you have a dream in which the three ghost children thank
you for saving them, but warn you of the Beldam's Hand. They say that the
only way to make sure no one gets kidnapped by the Beldam again is to get
rid of the Black Key. They tell you to put it in a place where no one would
ever be able to reach it.
The only place no one would ever be able to reach the bottom of is that really
really deep Well. You should drop the Key in there! Make your way back to
the Well and along the way you'll meet the Black Cat. You'll ask him if it's a
good idea to drop the key in the Well and he'll take off running. Oh well,
something must have spooked him. Continue on to the Well and once you get
there, you'll notice that it's been covered up again. Just Touch the Interactive
Icon and uncover the Well.

Suddenly the Beldam's Right Hand appears and traps you in a spider web!
Luckily Wybie is around and tackles the hand, but falls into the Well! Hurry
up and get out of the Beldam's thread before Wybie falls to his doom inside
the Well. Rub the stylus back and forth across the thread on Coraline to
break through it. Once you do, you must save Wybie!
In this mini-game, Touch the Beldam's Hand to keep it from dragging Wybie
down into the Well. Each time you knock the Hand into the Well, it'll come
out faster. As soon as you see the Hand coming up the side of the Well tap it
multiple times to knock it back down into the Well. Once you've knocked the
hand down the Well enough times and the picture of the Hand on the LCD
screen disappears, you've won the game, and stopped the Beldam forever!

Collection Room Mini-games
Bug Swatting – The bathroom is full of disgusting bugs! Get rid of them by swatting them
off the wall! Smash a green bug, you get more time, smash a purple bug, the bugs move
faster.
Coraline's Garden – The Other Father hid some presents in the garden. Can you find all of
them? Presents will shine if you get close enough to them. When you get caught by a
carnivorous plant, get away from it by rubbing it with the stylus.
Mice Circus – Now, let's play music with the mice. Touch the indicated instrument in time
with the music. You can also use the buttons instead. If you succeed a few times in a row, the
mice on the top screen will start dancing.
Nightmare – Can Coraline go back to the real world? Run away from the nightmare! If you
get caught, get away by rubbing the Touch Screen with the stylus. Sometimes, if you touch
the black cat when it's running, it might come walk with you. And if you touch the black cat
one more time...
Mantis Tractor – The Other Father's Mantis Tractor is after you! Avoid the attacks and stay
ahead of it. If Coraline trips over a rock and falls down, rub her with the stylus and get her
back up.
Catch the Mice – The big mouse has the ghost eye. Get the eye back by throwing a ball at
the big mouse. When you get a ball, you can throw it by swiftly sliding the stylus on the
Touch Screen towards the mouse. The big balls that appear sometimes are stronger and easier
to use than the small balls, so if you find them, catch it and throw it before they disappear.
Right Hand – Oh no! Wybie fell into the well, and the right hand of the Beldam is climbing
up his body! Touch the Beldam's hand with the stylus and drop it into the well. Don't hit
Wybie, though! The witch's right hand will move faster and faster, so pay attention and tap
accurately.
Hide-n-Seek – Hide-and-seek with three ghosts. Move Coraline with the stylus and catch
the ghosts when they appear on the screen.
