LEVELSHow to read these lists
These entries were compiled editorially from the linked sources. We have not replay-tested every hardware platform and game version. Labels and input sequences apply to the selected edition. Ports and patches can behave differently.
Directions refer to the D-pad. Cross, Circle, Square and Triangle are PlayStation buttons; A, B, X and Y use the specified Xbox or Nintendo layout. Enter number and text codes exactly as shown.
