Game Controls / How To Play
1. Alternate tapping between the left arm and the right arm to build up heat on the progress meter until the blue part is full.
2. Once the blue part of the progress meter is full, blow into the Nintendo DS's microphone to spread the microflame until the progress meter fills completely.
3. As an alternative, players can alternate pressing the "L" button and "R" button instead of tapping the arms.
1. Five bats will appear on each player's screen (the players will each see a different set of bats).
2. To wipe out a bat, players will throw rocks at the bats.
3. Tap on the lower screen to throw a rock in that direction.
1. The diver will begin near the surface.
2. Press the "L" button and "R" button together and hold them until the diver's hands come (almost) together and then let go of the buttons.
3. The diver will then dive down several meters (it'll take three to four dives to get all the way down).
4. On the way down, if "Hold your breath!" appears near the bottom right corner of the screen, press and hold the "A" button until the shark passes by.
5. During a dive, when the arms disappear, the diver has reached the bottom.
6. Break open the treasure chests by tapping on them repeatedly to reveal 5, 3, 1, or 0 pieces of gold.
7. After collecting the gold (some or all, depending on the countdown timer and breathing counter), press the "Y" button to turn around and head back up.
8. Returning to the surface involves the same motions ("L" button and "R" button together) as diving down.
9. When the diver reaches the surface and takes a breath, the gold coins that were collected are added to that player's total.
