Miscellaneous

• The Pleasure Domes only exist on games with ROM revision 8.00 "L8 ROMs" and higher.
• How do I get there?
  1. Collect keys. Every once and a while, a little "key" icon will be dropped onto the floor. According to the messages given at the start of each level on an L8 machine, you need ten keys to get in. Depending on how your game is set up, this can be difficult or impossible, unless you ...
  2. Go through the mazes in such a way as to get as many "" rooms as possible. On the second level i.e. the one following your victory over Mutoid Man, the nearest of these levels will start you off with a sprinkling, not of prizes but of keys. You should have no trouble picking up ten keys in this room alone.
  3. After defeating the Cobra Boss and entering the secret rooms, you'll eventually come to a room which will end with a choice of directions: right or down. Heading right will take you to the final battle with the Game Show Host. Heading down will take you into the Pleasure Domes. And yes, the visual effects and prizes! are well worth the hour or so of play it takes to see them.
