Clockwork Knight 2, known as Clockwork Knight: Pepperouchau no Daibouken Gekan (クロックワークナイトペパルーチョの大冒険下巻) in Japan, is a side-scrolling platforming game released for the Sega Saturn in 1995.

Story

The game focuses on Sir Tongara de Pepperouchau III ("Pepper" for short). He is the lovable (but clumsy) toy soldier, one of many in the house. He is fiercely in love with the Clockwork Fairy Princess, Chelsea, whose voice wakes up the toys of the house every night at midnight on the dot. However, his aforementioned clumsiness can sometimes make him something of a laughing stock, especially when compared to his friendly rival Ginger, who is also after Chelsea's heart.

However, as fate would have it, Chelsea was stolen away in the previous game by an unknown force, which had also hypnotised some of the lesser toys into fierce minions on a mission to stop anyone from rescuing her. Naturally, if there is no voice to wake them up anymore, the toys will never live again, so Pepper and Ginger head off to find Chelsea before it is too late.

The last game had a happy ending as they had found Chelsea, but there was a major unresolved problem: Chelsea was safe and sound, but would not wake up! As the toys not under the spell ponder just what to do, the unknown force returns, dropping down and knocking our heroes off their feet, all while directing its minions to recapture Chelsea and take her deeper into the household. Ginger and Pepper quickly come up with the plan: Ginger will deal with the mysterious foe, while Pepper himself continues on his quest to find Chelsea.

Characters

Sir Tongara de Pepperouchau III ("Pepper")

The protagonist and sole playable character in the main game. He is brave and dashing but also quite clumsy. He aims to find Chelsea as well as his missing grandfather.

Sir Ginger

Pepper's chief rival and something of a showoff. He works with Pepper in saving Chelsea. He discovers from Pepper's grandfather that Chelsea is his sister and that his key can wake her up again. He is playable in the US version using a cheat code.

Barobaro

Pepper's nearsighted but ever-faithful donkey-for-a-steed. He appears to be a wine bottle on a wheeled basket. He has a crush on Soltia. Pepper rides on his back in a few levels of the game.

Silver

Ginger's steed. A horse-shaped clothesbrush, he is quite snobby in thinking he is the perfect horse for the perfect warrior.

Prunchau

Pepper's valet and close friend. He is a top who is very conscientious of Pepper and sometimes treats him like a little boy. He leads the way in one segment of a level and gives suggestions in Soltian Roulette.

Le Bon

Ginger's valet, a cheerful rubber ball. He sometimes races Pepper in-game, and he also gives suggestions in Soltian Roulette.

Sir Oneon de Pepperouchau

Pepper's father. He is a bit overly dramatic; he thinks, for whatever reason, that his family has forsaken him.

Sir Garluch de Pepperouchau

Pepper's highly-respected, if somewhat misguided, grandfather. He falls under the dark spell like the lesser toys. Pepper saves him at the end of the game after defeating the dragon boss along with Chelsea.

Pa Zur

Ginger's lord and mentor, a sliding puzzle. All the toys consider him a wise old mystic.

Soltia

A hot-tempered perfume bottle who loves music, cards, and games of chance. She has a crush on Pepper and considers Chelsea to be a rival for his affection. She hosts the Soltian Roulette mini-game that occurs between worlds and gives suggestions to players.

Chelsea

A beautiful young doll whose voice wakes all the toys every night at midnight. Both Pepper and Ginger compete for her heart. Her kidnapping starts the events of this game and its sequel.

Gameplay

Goal

Le Bon race

This game is a side-scrolling platformer, similar to its predecessor. Players control the toy knight Sir Pepperouchau through four rooms, each consisting of two normal levels and a boss fight. The game is presented in "2.5D" with 2D sprites over 3D backgrounds. Levels are larger than the previous game and take greater advantage of the 2.5D format. Pepper can move into the background layer of some levels, and paths sometimes take 90-degree turns. There are hidden races against Le Bon, where succeeding awards a Gold Key and failing awards a Pocket Watch.

Pepper walks with or and sprints with or . Some objects can be pushed by moving into them. He crouches with . He jumps with or and jumps higher if the button is held for longer. He jumps farther while running. Pepper attacks enemies by using a wind-up key like a sword; he thrusts the key ahead by tapping . Many enemies require multiple stabs to defeat (causing them to pop into a burst of confetti). The first stab stuns the enemy, rendering them harmless for a duration. Pepper can pick up stunned enemies or other small objects (such as eggs) that are scattered around the levels by holding when next to them. He can throw an object he is carrying by releasing ; objects can be thrown upward with + or set down with +. He can move while holding an object. Stunned enemies awaken after a duration, which damages Pepper if he is holding them. Pepper can use his key to interact with some objects in levels, such as opening boxes. Pepper can twist his key around with , which is more powerful and can defeat most enemies with a single touch.

Some levels are autoscrolling levels that are played on horseback. In these levels, Barobaro slows down with and speeds up with . He jumps with or and attacks by popping his head off with .

Pepper starts the game with three hit points, depicted as gears in the lower-left corner of the screen. He loses a hit point each time he takes damage from an enemy or hazard, and he loses a try if time or hit points run out. There are no checkpoints, so losing a try sends a player back to the beginning of a level. Leaping onto the missing letter in "CLOCKWORK" on the goal at the end of the level awards an extra life. The game ends if the player runs out of lives but can be continued at the cost of 20 Imperial Crowns (collectables that are found throughout the game). The player can set the difficulty level (Training, Normal, and Hard) and number of starting lives from the options before starting the game. The final boss fight can only be played on Normal or Hard difficulty.

Items

Items can be collected by walking over them or poking them with Pepper's wind-up key. Items are sometimes found inside speckled eggs, which can be picked up and thrown to open them.

	Imperial Crown
	A bottle cap with a picture of a crown on it. These can be wagered in the Soltian Roulette bonus game or spent to continue the game if lost.
	Pocket Watch
	A pocket watch that is scattered around almost as much as Imperial Crowns. Awards either one or five bonus seconds on the timer.
	Keys
	Wind-up keys that restore a hit point. Bronze Keys refill one point, Silver Keys refill all points, and Gold Keys refill all points and increase the maximum by one (up to five hit points total for the current try). If Pepper is already at full health with five hit points, the Gold Key awards an extra life.
	Helmets
	A blue helmet (Oneon's Helmet) awards an extra life. The much-rarer red helmet (Garluch's Helmet) awards three extra lives.
	Pa-Zur Sphere
	Makes Pepper invincible for a short time.
	Speckled Egg
	Throw to break open and release items.
	Card
	There are 32 cards scattered around the game, four per level. Collecting all four cards in a level awards a Gold Key; collecting all 32 awards a cheat code for a level select.

Levels

This game has fourteen levels: four different rooms with two normal levels and one boss each, plus a sub-boss and a final boss.

	Study Room
	Boss: Crazy TV
	A smaller, easier version of the Crazy TV boss fight from the first game starts off the second. The artwork on the face of the TV is different to the version from the first game. This fight is only normally played in Japanese and PAL releases of the game, but it can be played in the NTSC release using a cheat code to play the game as Ginger.
	Kid's Room
	Boss: Funky Snaky
	A playroom filled with colorful toys, with large towers made of blocks and some race car tracks to ride Barobaro on. The boss is Funky Snaky, a floating snake made up of wooden blocks, a castanet, and spiked balls with a microphone on the tip of its tail that is its weak spot. It weaves around the tower Pepper is on, stopping to pose with the microphone up to its mouth every now and then.
	Study Room
	Boss: Paper Morphy
	A darker environment with candlelit desktops and stacks of books. Pepper can load into cannons with to launch himself between the foreground and background layers. Some open books can be pushed closed by pushing them. The boss is Paper Morphy, a page from a neglected book that impersonates animals. The destroyed "Crazy TV" boss can be seen in the background.
	Bath Room
	Boss: Captain Octopus
	Most of this room is situated on or around the bath tub. The first level has rising and falling water. Pepper rides Barobaro through the water on the second level. The boss is Captain Octopus, a giant, soap-throwing pirate toy octopus.
	Clock Tower
	Boss: King Gears
	Gears, pipes, and oily platforms abound as the search for Chelsea nears its close. Pepper can use his key to change the direction of how some things turn. The boss is King Gears, a large castle that transforms into a cruel beast with powerful arms and the ability to dispense enemies onto the battlefield.
	Final Boss
	Boss: Garluch the Dragon
	A final one-on-one battle with Garluch the Dragon, a behemoth of a creature composed of various bits (such as umbrellas and a teddy bear) and piloted by Pepper's grandfather. This level can only be fought when playing it on Normal or Hard.

Bonus game

Soltian Roulette

After finishing the boss level of the first three rooms, the player can play a bonus game with Soltia, Prunchau, and Le Bon. The player bets Imperial Crowns on the likelihood of getting something from a roulette of various things (including bonus items such as Imperial Crowns, 1-Ups, 3-Ups or clown heads, which award nothing). After betting 5, 10, or 15 Imperial Crowns, the boxes reveal their contents (the amount of everything varies depending on how much the player bets), then go for a quick spin. After the boxes come to a rest, the player chooses a box. If the player picks a box with a prize in it, it can be kept, or the player can choose to spin again for a double-or-nothing round. This can be done up to four times, with the amount of doubles going down by one each time.

History

Legacy

It is the sequel to Clockwork Knight, a launch title for the Sega Saturn that also was released in that year. Clockwork Knight 2 is often labeled as "Part 2", symbolising the fact they are essentially two halves of the same game. Both share much of the graphics and music and have identical gameplay. The original Clockwork Knight is often considered to be the lesser game, mostly due to the fact it was rushed to become a launch title. Clockwork Knight 2 had a much healthier development cycle, allowing for much improved graphics and levels set on Pepperouchau's steed, Barobaro.

There was a second sequel, Clockwork Knight: Pengin War, which never made it past the beta stage. Another possible sequel, titled Knight 'n Knight and scheduled to appear on the GameCube as an RPG, was never released.

Clockwork Knight Illustration Contest

Front of the cover dated 03.1995 issue of "TV Magazine" advertising the contest.

Sometime in early 1995, during production of the game, it was decided that the "Clockwork Knight Illustration Contest (クロックワークナイト・イラストコンテスト)" would be held.

The game's producer Noriyoshi Oba would contact "Mr. Sahara (佐原氏)" from the Editorial Department of Japan's TV Magazine (テレビマガジン)^[7]^[8], and the contest was first advertised on the front of the February 1995 (cover dated March 1995/1995.03) issue as "セガ・サターンクロックワークナイトイラスト大コンテスト"^[9] and simply "クロックワークナイトイラスト大コンテスト" on the Contents Page.^[10]

The basics of the competition were as follows:

Entries were to be drawn on the clear side of a plain postcard, and then the 2 little white address boxes with blue text included on the corresponding Magazine page were to be cut out and attached to the address side of the postcard. The entrants also had to pay 50 Yen (¥50) for postage costs.

As this was a contest, there were of course several prizes on offer. The prizes that were on offer were as follows^[11]:

Grand Prize (1 Winner Only) - Sega Saturn Console with controllers, etc.
Prize A (3 Winners Only) - Clockwork Knight game for Sega Saturn.
Prize B (3 Winners Only) - Virtua Fighter game for Sega Saturn.

(It is assumed that the Grand Prize would also come with a copy of each game)

Judging the entries were^[11]:

Noriyoshi Oba - Clockwork Knight Producer (大場規勝 - クロックワークナイトプロデューサー)
Murasaki Fumi - SEGA PR (村崎史 - セガ広報)
Ogawa Toru - Editor in Chief (小川徹 - 本誌編集長)

Scan from the cover dated 05.1995 issue of "TV Magazine" announcing the winners.

The contest would ended on 1995.03.05, and the winners of the Contest were later announced in the 1995.05 issue of TV Magazine.

The winners of the competition were as follows:

Grand Prize Winner: Takuya Kawamoto from Ōsaka Prefecture (大阪府/ 川本拓弥)
Prize A Top Winner: Yuiko Muraoka from Aichi Prefecture (愛知県/ (村岡佑伊子)
Prize A Other Winners: Asuka Kido from Saitama Prefecture (埼玉県/ 木戸あすか) & Saori Nishimura from Hyōgo Prefecture (兵庫県/ 西村沙織)
Prize B Top Winner: Yūsuke Hanai from Aichi Prefecture (愛知県/ 花井祐輔)
Prize B Other Winners: Kazuaki Mihara from Kyōto Prefecture (京都府/ 三原一晃) & Hikaru Suzuki from Aichi Prefecture (愛知県/ 鈴木輝)

In addition to the prizes above, the winners of the contest also had their names and illustrations shown during the credits of the NTSC-J version of the game, along with a few others who didn't win.

Said illustrations, along with the names of the winners can be seen here.

The contest itself, "Mr. Sahara" and TV Magazine are mentioned by Noriyoshi Oba in the "README.DOC" file found on the Disc for the Japanese version of the game, which is discussed in the "Versions" section below. TV Magazine was also thanked as "テレビマガジン編集部のみなさん (TV Magazine Editorial Staff)" in the Japanese Version credits under the "Special Thanks" section.

Clockwork Knight "Trap Idea" Contest

File:SSM JP 19950601 1995-06.pdf Around 2 months before the initial Japanese release of the game, a contest was announced in the street dated 1995.06 issue of Sega Saturn Magazine (Japan) with a sense of "urgency"., looking for ideas for "Traps"/Enemies and Gimmicks for the then upcoming sequel.

The contest details remark on the fun use of 3D in the original game, such as the Doll Houses in Betsy's room that would fall onto the player or the toy locomotive that appeared in Kevin's Room, and that while there were already many such interesting things implemented in the new game, that it might also be fun to put the ideas of the readers into the game.

Readers were encouraged to send in as many different ideas as possible to a designated address (The Product Management Department's "Clockwork Knight Section" at SEGA of Japan's offices), and for their efforts, they had a chance of winning one of 10 copies of the game.

Given that the game was very much nearing it's final stages, a release was only a few months away, and as previously mentioned, the competition itself was presented with a sense of urgency, it was stated that any entries postmarked after 1995.06.07 would not be considered for the contest. Entrants also had to agree to only send in original/previously unused ideas, and that all industrial property rights, clothing rights and other clothing parental rights arising from the submitted ideas, sketches, etc. belong to SEGA ENTERPRISES CO., LTD. Minors were also required to attach a letter of parental consent along with their entry, otherwise it could not be accepted.

The competition details stated that results of the contest were set to be announced in a later issue of the magazine, but no fixed date was set for this at the time.

File:SSM JP 19951101 1995-11.pdf 5 months later, the the street dated 1995.11 issue of Sega Saturn Magazine (Japan) was released, and within it's pages the winners of the contest were finally announced.

The 10 winners were decided in two formats:

Good Work (佳作): Ideas that were not actually used in the game, but that the game staff thought were pretty good ideas.
Excellent Work (優秀作): Ideas that the game staff felt were so good that they were adopted into the game, either as is, or adapted to better suit the world of Clockwork Knight.

The following 5 ideas were the winners of the "Good Work" category:

Choro-Q Finish by Takita Yūichi-San, Age 20 (「了チョロQ 」 - 滝田祐一さん, 20歳)

A mini toy car with a with coil-spring pullback motor is pulled backwards by Tongara, which he can then ride, and launches towards an enemy, sending the enemy flying towards the sky before exploding.

"SEGA" commented that they enjoyed the fact that the characteristics of the toy and the action of the tongara are inextricably engaged.

Flower Pot by Sawada Shunsuke-San, Age 12 (「植木鉢」 - 沢田俊介さん, 12歳)

Water is added to a plant, and it grows rapidly until it becomes a huge ivy, with many large leaves. If you jump on this leaf and travel upwards, you'll find a shortcut to the back road and the goal.

"SEGA" commented that they found this idea to be particularly eye-catching, and were impressed with such a simple image.

Household Resident gets up to use the Bathroom by Asami Hiroyuki-San, Age 21 (「住人、トイレで起きる」 - 朝見浩幸さん, 21歳)

The resident gets up in the middle of the night to use the Bathroom, and you must avoid being stepped on. If you are stepped on, then you will instantly die in one hit. Such small details are included by the resident being awoken by dim lights being accidently turned on by the player throughout the home.

"SEGA" commented that in terms of the impact of the idea itself,t his one was the best one. And that the idea of having the residents of the household appear in some form was a fine idea indeed.

In addition to the above three ideas, "Bamboo dragonfly; flying in the sky" by Sabihico Matsuyama (「竹とんぼ」空を飛ぶ - 松山錆彦さん) and "The Harvest Cup; barrier" by Higashimoto Takehiko-san (「穫明カップ」バリア - 東本岳彦さん) were also decided as "good works", but no information on them was presented.

File:SSM JP 19951101 1995-11.pdf The following 5 ideas were the winners of the "Excellent Work Work" category:

Turntable by Shimizu Noriya-San, Age 23 (「ターンテーブル」 - 清水典也さん, 23歳))

When the left switch is turned, the direction of the records rotation changes. There is also a switch on the right that turns the record player on and off, stopping the rotation completely. When the rotation stops, the BGM also stops. The stopped BGM fades back in once Tongara leaves the turntable.

"SEGA" commented how much they liked this idea, and how much it suited the world of Clockwork Knight. They really liked the idea that the rotation direction of the record can be changed by switching the switch, and so they incorporated this idea into the "detent" gears that appear in "Clock Tower".

New Attack Method by Taguchi Isao-San, Age 24 (「新しい攻撃法」 - 田口勲さん, 24歳)

Using Tongara's key to hit enimies to clear other things, or allow access to other enimies and enemies he otherwise couldn't.

"SEGA" commented how much they really liked the idea, so they adaped it and used it in the Study Room with the Edwards in parts where you can break the floor to access parts you previously couldn't, and to please try it out.

Cannon that can be operated Player 2 by Zero Pop-San, Age 21 (「2 Pが操作できる大砲」 - ゼロ・ポップさん, 25歳)

When Tongara reaches a certain place, a big arrow will appear in front of the screen. The original idea of this is for Player 2 to control the direction of this and decide where Tongara ends up.

"SEGA" commented how they like to use the scaling function of the Sega Saturn well, and that because of this the games artists utilised this person's idea in the large Study Room stages. They also made it so Tongara himself enters the canon without the need of assistance from Player 2, and they felt players will have fun using the cannons to switch between the front and back of the stage.

Page Turning of Hell by Shimoshige Masaru-San, Age 24 (「地獄のページめくり」 - 下重勝さん, 24歳)

The basic idea was to use books around the home to help the player progress. Ideas were given such as using a book that has been spread open as a foothold to reach a higher path, or running on the pages of an open book and turning them over to defeat enemies.

"SEGA" commented that the "Study Room" stage is filled with books, so this idea was perfect. Various book "traps and gimmicks" are waiting for the player to find in that stage, and to please try to find everything.

Enemy Changing with Oragami by Ando Yuki-San, Age 18 (「折り紙で変化する敵」 - 安東雄起さん, 18歳)

The first form is a piece of paper that looks like origami and transforms into various shapes such as animals, etc, and it would come after you in these different forms one by one until defeated.

"SEGA" loved this idea so much that they used it without much revision for the Boss (Paper Morphy) of the "Study Room" stage, and commented how even though it's such a simple idea, it is a brilliant one that would be hard to come up with.

The contest itself, "Mr. Kondo" and 'Sega Saturn Magazine are mentioned by Noriyoshi Oba in the "README.DOC" file found on the Disc for the Japanese version of the game, which is discussed in the "Versions" section below. Sega Saturn Magazine was also thanked as "セガサターンマガジン編集部のみなさん (Sega Saturn Magazine Editorial Staff)" in the Japanese Version credits under the "Special Thanks" section.

Versions

The NTSC (US) version of Clockwork Knight 2 is based on Clockwork Knight: Pepperouchau no Fukubukuro with "Part 1" removed. As it is based on Fukubukuro, the game contains additional modes such as The Movies! and Bosses Galore, both of which are missing from the European and Japanese versions of the game.

One thing to be noted in the NTSC (US) version is that just like Fukubukuro, the "A Lullaby" ending video and even credits screens are missing, and after beating "Part 2", you are simply returned to the main title screen after being shown the ending video and the screen showing how many cards you collected during your play.

On a special note, the Disc for the Japanese version of the game contains an easter egg in the form of an .DOC file titled "README.DOC", which when viewed contains messages from the team that developed the game, all in Japanese. This file can be seen here.

-'''''Clockwork Knight 2''''', known as '''''Clockwork Knight: Pepperouchau no Daibouken Gekan''''' (クロックワークナイト ペパルーチョの大冒険 下巻
+'''''{{PAGENAME}}''''', known as '''''Clockwork Knight: Pepperouchau no Daibouken Gekan''''' (クロックワークナイト ペパルーチョの大冒険 下巻) in Japan, is a side-scrolling platforming game released for the [[Sega Saturn]] in 1995.
-) in Japan, is a side-scrolling platformer video game released for the Sega Saturn in 1995. It is the sequel to ''[[Clockwork Knight]]'', a launch title for the Sega Saturn that also was released in that year.
+==Story==
+The game focuses on Sir Tongara de Pepperouchau III ("Pepper" for short). He is the lovable (but clumsy) toy soldier, one of many in the house. He is fiercely in love with the Clockwork Fairy Princess, Chelsea, whose voice wakes up the toys of the house every night at midnight on the dot. However, his aforementioned clumsiness can sometimes make him something of a laughing stock, especially when compared to his friendly rival Ginger, who is also after Chelsea's heart.
-''Clockwork Knight 2'' builds on the offerings of the original game (it is often labeled as "Part 2", symbolising the fact they are essentially two halves of the same game). Both share much of the graphics and music and have identical gameplay, however the original ''Clockwork Knight'' is often considered to be the lesser game, mostly due to the fact it was rushed to become a launch title. ''Clockwork Knight 2'' had a much healthier development cycle, allowing for much improved graphics and levels set on Pepperouchau's steed, Barobaro.
+However, as fate would have it, Chelsea was stolen away in the previous game by an unknown force, which had also hypnotised some of the lesser toys into fierce minions on a mission to stop anyone from rescuing her. Naturally, if there is no voice to wake them up anymore, the toys will never live again, so Pepper and Ginger head off to find Chelsea before it is too late.
-This and the first ''Clockwork Knight'' game were later released as a value pack on one single disc known as ''[[Clockwork Knight: Pepperouchau no Fukubukuro]]''. The US version of ''Clockwork Knight 2'' is based on this version with Part 1 removed.
+The last game had a happy ending as they had found Chelsea, but there was a major unresolved problem: Chelsea was safe and sound, but would not wake up! As the toys not under the spell ponder just what to do, the unknown force returns, dropping down and knocking our heroes off their feet, all while directing its minions to recapture Chelsea and take her deeper into the household. Ginger and Pepper quickly come up with the plan: Ginger will deal with the mysterious foe, while Pepper himself continues on his quest to find Chelsea.
-There was a second sequel, ''[[Clockwork Knight: Pengin War]]'', which never made it past the beta stage. Another possible sequel, titled ''[[Knight 'n Knight]]'' and scheduled to appear on the GameCube as an RPG, was never released.

-==Story==
+==Gameplay==
-The game focuses on Sir Tongara de Pepperouchau III ("Pepper" for short). He is the lovable (but clumsy) toy soldier (one of many in the house) that is owned by the members of the household. He is fiercely in love with the Clockwork Fairy Princess, Chelsea, whose voice wakes up the toys of the house, every night at midnight on the dot. However, his aforementioned clumsiness can sometimes make him something of a laughing stock, especially when compared to his friendly rival Ginger, who is also after Chelsea's heart.
+{{ScreenThumb|Clockwork Knight 2 Saturn, Goal.png|width=200|Goal}}
+{{ScreenThumb|Clockwork Knight 2 Saturn, Le Bon Race.png|width=200|Le Bon race}}
+This game is a side-scrolling platformer, similar to its predecessor. Players control the toy knight Sir Pepperouchau through four rooms, each consisting of two normal levels and a boss fight. The game is presented in "2.5D" with 2D sprites over 3D backgrounds. Levels are larger than the previous game and take greater advantage of the 2.5D format. Pepper can move into the background layer of some levels, and paths sometimes take 90-degree turns. There are hidden races against Le Bon, where succeeding awards a Gold Key and failing awards a Pocket Watch.
+Pepper walks with {{left}} or {{right}} and sprints with {{left}} {{left}} or {{right}} {{right}}. Some objects can be pushed by moving into them. He crouches with {{down}}. He jumps with {{A}} or {{C}} and jumps higher if the button is held for longer. He jumps farther while running. Pepper attacks enemies by using a wind-up key like a sword; he thrusts the key ahead by tapping {{B}}. Many enemies require multiple stabs to defeat (causing them to pop into a burst of confetti). The first stab stuns the enemy, rendering them harmless for a duration. Pepper can pick up stunned enemies or other small objects (such as eggs) that are scattered around the levels by holding {{B}} when next to them. He can throw an object he is carrying by releasing {{B}}; objects can be thrown upward with {{up}}+{{B}} or set down with {{down}}+{{B}}. He can move while holding an object. Stunned enemies awaken after a duration, which damages Pepper if he is holding them. Pepper can use his key to interact with some objects in levels, such as opening boxes. Pepper can twist his key around with {{repeat|{{B}}}}, which is more powerful and can defeat most enemies with a single touch.
+Some levels are autoscrolling levels that are played on horseback. In these levels, Barobaro slows down with {{left}} and speeds up with {{right}}. He jumps with {{A}} or {{C}} and attacks by popping his head off with {{B}}.
+Pepper starts the game with three hit points, depicted as gears in the lower-left corner of the screen. He loses a hit point each time he takes damage from an enemy or hazard, and he loses a try if time or hit points run out. There are no checkpoints, so losing a try sends a player back to the beginning of a level. Leaping onto the missing letter in "CLOCKWORK" on the goal at the end of the level awards an extra life. The game ends if the player runs out of lives but can be continued at the cost of 20 Imperial Crowns (collectables that are found throughout the game). The player can set the difficulty level (Training, Normal, and Hard) and number of starting lives from the options before starting the game. The final boss fight can only be played on Normal or Hard difficulty.
+===Items===
+Items can be collected by walking over them or poking them with Pepper's wind-up key. Items are sometimes found inside speckled eggs, which can be picked up and thrown to open them.

Ginger and Pepper quickly come up with the plan: Ginger will deal with the TV (the final boss of the last game), still somewhat active from its fight with Pepper, while Pepper himself continues on his quest to find Chelsea.

-==Characters==
+===Bonus game===
-'''Sir Tongara de Pepperouchau III ("Pepper")''' - the main protagonist and sole playable character in the main game. He's brave, he's dashing, but he's also quite clumsy. At the end of the game not only does he save Chelsea but also finds his missing grandfather and marries Chelsea too.
+{{ScreenThumb|Clockworkknight2 Saturn JP SSBns.png|width=200|Soltian Roulette}}
+After finishing the boss level of the first three rooms, the player can play a bonus game with Soltia, Prunchau, and Le Bon. The player bets Imperial Crowns on the likelihood of getting something from a roulette of various things (including bonus items such as Imperial Crowns, 1-Ups, 3-Ups or clown heads, which award nothing). After betting 5, 10, or 15 Imperial Crowns, the boxes reveal their contents (the amount of everything varies depending on how much the player bets), then go for a quick spin. After the boxes come to a rest, the player chooses a box. If the player picks a box with a prize in it, it can be kept, or the player can choose to spin again for a double-or-nothing round. This can be done up to four times, with the amount of doubles going down by one each time.
-'''Barobaro''' - Pepper's nearsighted but ever-faithful donkey-for-a-steed. Apparently he consists of a wine bottle on a wheeled basket. Pepper rides on his back in a few stages of the game. He also has a crush on Soltia...
+==History==
+===Legacy===
+It is the sequel to ''[[Clockwork Knight]]'', a launch title for the Sega Saturn that also was released in that year. ''Clockwork Knight 2'' is often labeled as "Part 2", symbolising the fact they are essentially two halves of the same game. Both share much of the graphics and music and have identical gameplay. The original ''Clockwork Knight'' is often considered to be the lesser game, mostly due to the fact it was rushed to become a launch title. ''Clockwork Knight 2'' had a much healthier development cycle, allowing for much improved graphics and levels set on Pepperouchau's steed, Barobaro.
-'''Prunchau''' - Pepper's valet and close buddy, this top is also very consciencious of Pepper and sometimes treats him like a little boy. He leads the way in one segment of a level, and gives suggestions in the Soltian Roulette.
+There was a second sequel, ''[[Clockwork Knight: Pengin War]]'', which never made it past the beta stage. Another possible sequel, titled ''[[Knight 'n Knight]]'' and scheduled to appear on the [[GameCube]] as an RPG, was never released.
-'''Sir Ginger''' - Pepper's chief rival and something of a showoff, but works with him in saving Chelsea. At the end of the game he discovers from Pepper's grandfather that Chelsea is really his sister and that his key can wake her up again. He is also playable in the "Bosses Galore" mode as well as Part 2 via a cheat code.
+===Clockwork Knight Illustration Contest===
+[[File:TVMagazine_JP_19950301_1995-03.pdf|page=1|thumb|right|Front of the cover dated 03.1995 issue of "TV Magazine" advertising the contest.]]
+Sometime in early 1995, during production of the game, it was decided that the "Clockwork Knight Illustration Contest (クロックワークナイト・イラストコンテスト)" would be held.
-'''Silver''' - Ginger's steed. A horse-shaped clothesbrush, he's quite snobby in thinking he's the perfect horse for the perfect warrior.
+The game's producer [[Noriyoshi Oba]] would contact "Mr. Sahara (佐原氏)" from the Editorial Department of Japan's ''TV Magazine (テレビマガジン)''<ref>[https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E3%83%86%E3%83%AC%E3%83%93%E3%83%9E%E3%82%AC%E3%82%B8%E3%83%B3 TV Magazine info on Japan Wikipedia]</ref><ref>[https://tfwiki.net/wiki/TV_Magazine TV Magazine info on Transformers Wiki]</ref>, and the contest was first advertised on the front of the February 1995 (cover dated March 1995/1995.03) issue as "セガ・サターンクロックワークナイトイラスト大コンテスト"<ref>[https://segaretro.org/index.php?title=File:TVMagazine_JP_19950301_1995-03.pdf&page=3 The cover dated 03.1995 issue of "TV Magazine" advertising the Clockwork Knight Illustration contest.]</ref> and simply "クロックワークナイトイラスト大コンテスト" on the Contents Page.<ref>[https://segaretro.org/index.php?title=File:TVMagazine_JP_19950301_1995-03.pdf&page=2 Contents page of the cover dated 03.1995 issue of "TV Magazine" advertising the Clockwork Knight Illustration contest.]</ref>
-'''Le Bon''' - Ginger's valet. This bouncy ball will sometimes race Pepper in-game; succeeding gets you a Gold Key, while failing gets you a measly Imperial Crown. Like Prunchau, he also gives suggestions in the Soltian Roulette.
+The basics of the competition were as follows:
-'''Sir Oneon de Pepperouchau''' - Pepper's father. He's a bit overly dramatic; he thinks, for whatever reason, that his family has forsaken him.
+Entries were to be drawn on the clear side of a plain postcard, and then the 2  little white address boxes with blue text included on the corresponding Magazine page were to be cut out and attached to the address side of the postcard. The entrants also had to pay 50 Yen (¥50) for postage costs.
-'''Sir Garluch de Pepperouchau''' - Pepper's highly-respected, if somewhat misguided, grandfather. It turns out he too was under the dark spell like the other lesser toys too. Pepper saves him at the end of the game after defeating the dragon boss along with Chelsea and tells his grandson that Ginger is really Chelsea's brother that only he can save her with his key.
+As this was a contest, there were of course several prizes on offer. The prizes that were on offer were as follows<ref name=Comp>[https://segaretro.org/index.php?title=File:TVMagazine_JP_19950301_1995-03.pdf&page=5 Competition page with prize, entry and judge information of the cover dated 03.1995 issue of "TV Magazine" advertising the Clockwork Knight Illustration contest.]</ref>:

+*'''''Prize B (3 Winners Only)''''' - [[Virtua Fighter]] game for Sega Saturn.
+(It is assumed that the Grand Prize would also come with a copy of each game)
-'''Pa Zur''' - Ginger's lord and mentor. All the toys think that the sliding puzzle is a wise old mystic.

+*'''''Murasaki Fumi - SEGA PR''''' (村崎 史 - セガ広報)
+*'''''Ogawa Toru - Editor in Chief''''' (小川 徹 - 本誌編集長)
-'''Soltia''' - A hot-tempered perfume bottle who loves music, cards, and games of chance. She even has a big crush on Pepper himself, considering Chelsea to be a rival for his affection. She hosts the Soltian Roulette mini-game that occurs between worlds, also giving suggestions to players like Prunchau and Le Bon do.
+[[File:CK2_Illustration_Contest_Results.jpg|thumb|left|Scan from the cover dated 05.1995 issue of "TV Magazine" announcing the winners.]]
+The contest would ended on 1995.03.05, and the winners of the Contest were later announced in the 1995.05 issue of ''TV Magazine''.
-'''Clockwork Princess Chelsea''' - This young, beautiful doll's voice has the power to wake all the toys every night at midnight. Both Pepper and Ginger compete for her heart. It is her kidnapping that sets both this and the prior game off. At the end its discovered that she and Ginger are brother and sister. She is awaken by her brother's key and then she marries Pepper.
+The winners of the competition were as follows:
-==Gameplay==
+*'''''Grand Prize Winner''''': Takuya Kawamoto from Ōsaka Prefecture (大阪府/ 川本 拓弥)
-The game acts as the second half of the original Clockwork Knight. The US version is based off of ''[[Clockwork Knight: Pepperouchau no Fukubukuro]]'' which features additional modes not seen in other versions. There also exists hidden, additional modes and features as well.
+*'''''Prize A Top Winner''''': Yuiko Muraoka from Aichi Prefecture (愛知県/ (村岡 佑伊子)
+*'''''Prize A Other Winners''''': Asuka Kido from Saitama Prefecture (埼玉県/ 木戸 あすか) & Saori Nishimura from Hyōgo Prefecture (兵庫県/ 西村 沙織)

+*'''''Prize B Other Winners''''': Kazuaki Mihara from Kyōto Prefecture (京都府/ 三原 一晃) & Hikaru Suzuki from Aichi Prefecture (愛知県/ 鈴木 輝)
-===Part 2===
+In addition to the prizes above, the winners of the contest also had their [[#Japanese_version|names]] and illustrations shown during the credits of the NTSC-J version of the game, along with a few others who didn't win.
-Effectively, this game is a side-scrolling platformer, much in the vein of the Super Mario and Sonic the Hedgehog video game series. However, unlike the aforementioned titles, the game has full 3D graphics, and doesn't just sit on that fact with numerous segments taking Pepper all over the back- and foregrounds, the paths sometimes having full 90° turns, and fully-polygonal bosses to fight (most of the in-game objects are pre-rendered sprites, much like Donkey Kong Country).
+Said illustrations, along with the names of the winners can be seen [[Clockwork_Knight_2/Comparisons#Credits_Art_Comparisons|here]].
-Pepper doesn't go head-bopping like many other video game stars do, but rather attacks them with his key. A quick tap of the button (usually B) will thrust it out horizontally at any would-be enemies. He cannot do this vertically. Likewise, repeatedly tapping the button over and over will cause him to twist the key around and around. This makes it a bit more powerful (e.g.: an enemy could be knocked out temporarily with a simple jab, but running into the key when twisting it will instantly take it out with a satisfying pop and lots of... confetti...). In addition to all this, he can also pick up unconscious enemies or even the various speckled eggs that've been scattered here and there, and toss them at things (in this case, yes, vertical attacks are possible).
+The contest itself, "Mr. Sahara" and ''TV Magazine'' are mentioned by Noriyoshi Oba in the "README.DOC" file found on the Disc for the Japanese version of the game, which is discussed in the "Versions" section below. ''TV Magazine'' was also thanked as "テレビマガジン編集部のみなさん (TV Magazine Editorial Staff)" in the [[#Japanese_version|Japanese Version credits]] under the "Special Thanks" section.
-The goal is simple: just get to the end of the stage alive and well, before time or your hit points (typically three, though Gold Keys can increase that maximum) run out. Unfortunately there aren't any checkpoints to aid players here, so finishing a level has to be done in one go. To mix up the fun, Clockwork Knight 2 has various things that its predecessor lacks. For instance, there are 32 cards scattered around the game, four per level. Collecting all four cards in a level gives players a Gold Key; collecting all 32 gives them a secret code. Beyond that, the levels are fairly large, with numerous areas to check out and get the treasures out of, so exploration is anything but unadvised.
+===Clockwork Knight "Trap Idea" Contest===
+[[File:SSM_JP_19950601_1995-06.pdf|page=38|thumb|right|Page 36 of the cover dated 06.1995 issue of "Sega Saturn Magazine (Japan)" advertising the   contest.]]
+Around 2 months before the initial Japanese release of the game, a contest was announced in the street dated 1995.06 issue of [[Sega Saturn Magazine (Japan)]] with a sense of "urgency"., looking for ideas for "Traps"/Enemies and Gimmicks for the then upcoming sequel.
-There are also some horseback levels to keep things somewhat fresh. These are also 2D in nature, but in them Pepper is continuously going to the right on the back of his steed Barobaro. If one wants to collect something, then they'd have to be fairly quick about it as there would be no going backwards outside of Pepper committing suicide quickly to revive back at the beginning of the stage.
+The contest details remark on the fun use of 3D in the original game, such as the Doll Houses in Betsy's room that would fall onto the player or the toy locomotive that appeared in Kevin's Room, and that while there were already many such interesting things implemented in the new game, that it might also be fun to put the ideas of the readers into the game.
-Then come the boss levels. Every third level, Pepper must face off against a large, fully-polygonal enemy in a one-on-one battle. Each of these have a weakness to them that must be exploited, which is easier said than done at times. For instance, the first boss is a rockin', floating snake made up of wooden blocks and spiked balls with a microphone on the tip of its tail that doubles as its weak spot. It weaves around the tower Pepper is on, stopping to pose with the microphone up to its mouth every now and then. Most of the boss fights share this uniqueness to them, ranging from said snake to a piece of paper that morphs into various animals to an entire toy castle that's watched too many Transformers TV shows.
+Readers were encouraged to send in as many different ideas as possible to a designated address (The Product Management Department's "Clockwork Knight Section" at SEGA of Japan's offices), and for their efforts, they had a chance of winning one of 10 copies of the game.
-Ultimately the main game is only 13 levels long, so it's not terribly long (which is good, as the game doesn't save your progress in the main game). That 13 levels hosts four different rooms with two normal levels and a boss each, plus a final boss that can only be fought when playing it on Normal or Hard; if you tried Training out first, the game ends at the level just before, and you don't get to see the ending.
+Given that the game was very much nearing it's final stages, a release was only a few months away, and as previously mentioned, the competition itself was presented with a sense of urgency, it was stated that any entries postmarked after 1995.06.07 would not be considered for the contest. Entrants also had to agree to only send in original/previously unused ideas, and that all industrial property rights, clothing rights and other clothing parental rights arising from the submitted ideas, sketches, etc. belong to SEGA ENTERPRISES CO., LTD. Minors were also required to attach a letter of parental consent along with their entry, otherwise it could not be accepted.
-*European versions are missing the following options.
+The competition details stated that results of the contest were set to be announced in a later issue of the magazine, but no fixed date was set for this at the time.
-====Play as Ginger====
+[[File:SSM_JP_19951101_1995-11.pdf|page=178|thumb|left|Page 176 of the cover dated 11.1995 issue of "Sega Saturn Magazine (Japan)" announcing the contest winners in the category "Good Work".]]
+months later, the the street dated 1995.11 issue of [[Sega Saturn Magazine (Japan)]] was released, and within it's pages the winners of the contest were finally announced.
-A cheat code which was discovered in 2012 revealed that Ginger is also a playable character through the game's story mode. By pressing {{up}} {{up}} {{down}} {{down}} {{left}} {{right}} {{left}} {{right}} {{L}} {{R}} {{L}} {{R}} on the mode select screen, a chime will sound. Starting Part 2 will then start the game as Ginger. However a number of elements in the game, such as HUD, text and certain levels will still feature Pepper. This cheat code also works in the compilation ''[[Clockwork Knight: Pepperouchau no Fukubukuro]]''
+The 10 winners were decided in two formats:
-===Bosses Galore===
+*'''''Good Work (佳作)''''': Ideas that were not actually used in the game, but that the game staff thought were pretty good ideas.
+*'''''Excellent Work (優秀作)''''': Ideas that the game staff felt were so good that they were adopted into the game, either as is, or adapted to better suit the world of Clockwork Knight.
-This mode lets you play as either Pepper or Ginger in fighting all the bosses of Part 1 and Part 2, in order. Essentially this mode is little more than a score attack, but doing well in it could tell you a code to enter a top-secret mini-game stash (the progress of which the game DOES keep track of, thankfully), or even a secret movie.
+The following 5 ideas were the winners of the "Good Work" category:
-====Mini Games====
+*'''''Choro-Q Finish by Takita Yūichi-San, Age 20 (「了チョロQ 」 - 滝田祐一さん, 20歳)'''
+A mini toy car with a with coil-spring pullback motor is pulled backwards by Tongara, which he can then ride, and launches towards an enemy, sending the enemy flying towards the sky before exploding.
-Hidden in Bosses Galore are several simple mini games. By pressing {{up}} {{up}} {{right}} {{right}} {{down}} {{down}} {{left}} {{left}} {{X}} {{Y}} {{Z}} a chime will sound and the text "MINIGAME" will appear on screen. Selecting start on the menu will bring you to a list of the following mini games.
+"SEGA" commented that they enjoyed the fact that the characteristics of the toy and the action of the tongara are inextricably engaged.
-*Forks!
+*'''''Flower Pot by Sawada Shunsuke-San, Age 12 (「植木鉢」 - 沢田俊介さん, 12歳)'''
-*Jump 1!
+Water is added to a plant, and it grows rapidly until it becomes a huge ivy, with many large leaves. If you jump on this leaf and travel upwards, you'll find a shortcut to the back road and the goal.
-*Cannon 1
-*Swim!!
-*Jump 2!
-*Cannon 2
-*Horsey
-===The Movies!===
+"SEGA" commented that they found this idea to be particularly eye-catching, and were impressed with such a simple image.
-This mode showcases all the movies from Part 1 and Part 2. There is an option to view all the cutscenes at once as well as the Salsa de Pepperouchau that served as the Clockwork Knight 2 demo's intro sequence and the Cast of Characters video.
+*'''''Household Resident gets up to use the Bathroom by Asami Hiroyuki-San, Age 21 (「住人、トイレで起きる」 - 朝見浩幸さん, 21歳)'''
+The resident gets up in the middle of the night to use the Bathroom, and you must avoid being stepped on. If you are stepped on, then you will instantly die in one hit. Such small details are included by the resident being awoken by dim lights being accidently turned on by the player throughout the home.
-==Items==
+"SEGA" commented that in terms of the impact of the idea itself,t his one was the best one. And that the idea of having the residents of the household appear in some form was a fine idea indeed.
-Items are scattered through the levels. They're often found inside eggs, enemies, scenery or out in the open.
-'''Imperial Crowns''' - Essentially bottle-caps with pictures of crowns on them, these are used in the Soltian Roulette mini-game or to determine whether you get a continue or not.
+In addition to the above three ideas, "Bamboo dragonfly; flying in the sky" by Sabihico Matsuyama (「竹とんぼ」 空を飛ぶ - 松山錆彦さん) and "The Harvest Cup; barrier"  by Higashimoto Takehiko-san (「穫明カップ」 バリア - 東本岳彦さん) were also decided as "good works", but no information on them was presented.
-'''Pocket Watches''' - Scattered around almost as much as Imperial Crowns, these give you either one or five seconds on your timer.
+[[File:SSM_JP_19951101_1995-11.pdf|page=179|thumb|right|Page 177 of the cover dated 11.1995 issue of "Sega Saturn Magazine (Japan)" announcing the contest winners in the category "Excellent Work".]]
+The following 5 ideas were the winners of the "Excellent Work Work" category:
-'''Keys''' - These wind-up keys will refill your health. They come in three colors; Bronze Keys refill a whopping one hit point, Silver Keys refill all your health points, and Gold Keys refill all your hit points while adding a new one to your maximum (this works twice per life, giving you up to five hit points total), unless you already are at full health with five hit points, in which case it just gives you an extra life.
+*'''''Turntable by Shimizu Noriya-San, Age 23 (「ターンテーブル」 - 清水典也さん, 23歳))'''
+When the left switch is turned, the direction of the records rotation changes. There is also a switch on the right that turns the record player on and off, stopping the rotation completely. When the rotation stops, the BGM also stops. The stopped BGM fades back in once Tongara leaves the turntable.
-'''Helmets''' - In a word, "lives". Blue Helmets are 1UPs, while Red Helmets are 3UPs (and much rarer, too).
+"SEGA" commented how much they liked this idea, and how much it suited the world of Clockwork Knight. They really liked the idea that the rotation direction of the record can be changed by switching the switch, and so they incorporated this idea into the "detent" gears that appear in "Clock Tower".
-'''Invincible''' - As it implies, this makes Pepper invincible for a short time.
+*'''''New Attack Method by Taguchi Isao-San, Age 24 (「新しい攻撃法 」 - 田口 勲さん, 24歳)'''
+Using Tongara's key to hit enimies to clear other things, or allow access to other enimies and enemies he otherwise couldn't.
-===Rooms===
+"SEGA" commented how much they really liked the idea, so they adaped it and used it in the Study Room with the Edwards in parts where you can break the floor to access parts you previously couldn't, and to please try it out.
-There are four rooms in the game consisting of three levels each, with a final boss level at the very end.
-====Kids' Room====
+*'''''Cannon that can be operated Player 2 by Zero Pop-San, Age 21 (「2 Pが操作できる大砲」 - ゼロ・ポップさん, 25歳)'''
+When Tongara reaches a certain place, a big arrow will appear in front of the screen. The original idea of this is for Player 2 to control the direction of this and decide where Tongara ends up.
-This is something of a playroom; tons and tons of colorful toys around, with large towers made of blocks and some race car tracks to ride Barobaro on. The boss is a large snake made up of various wooden blocks.
+"SEGA" commented how they like to use the scaling function of the Sega Saturn well, and that because of this the games artists utilised this person's idea in the large Study Room stages. They also made it so Tongara himself enters the canon without the need of assistance from Player 2, and they felt players will have fun using the cannons to switch between the front and back of the stage.
-====Study Room====
+*'''''Page Turning of Hell by Shimoshige Masaru-San, Age 24 (「地獄のページめくり」 - 下重 勝さん, 24歳)'''
+The basic idea was to use books around the home to help the player progress. Ideas were given such as using a book that has been spread open as a foothold to reach a higher path, or running on the pages of an open book and turning them over to defeat enemies.
-This is much jazzier than the prior room, not only in music but in tone as well. Things are much darker as you go about the candlelit desktops, opening and closing books and launching toy rockets at enemies in the background that you'd otherwise be facing later on. The boss is a page from a book that likes to impersonate animals.
+"SEGA" commented that the "Study Room" stage is filled with books, so this idea was perfect. Various book "traps and gimmicks" are waiting for the player to find in that stage, and to please try to find everything.
-====Bath Room====
+*'''''Enemy Changing with Oragami by Ando Yuki-San, Age 18 (「折り紙で変化する敵」 - 安東雄起さん, 18歳)'''
+The first form is a piece of paper that looks like origami and transforms into various shapes such as animals, etc, and it would come after you in these different forms one by one until defeated.
-Moving back into bright areas for a while, most of this level is situated on or around the bath tub, with a few exceptions (such as one point where Pepper goes all the way up to the ceiling on the various plants hanging from it). Watch out for the hot water, it can really sting... The boss is a giant, soap-throwing toy octopus.
+"SEGA" loved this idea so much that they used it without much revision for the Boss (Paper Morphy) of the "Study Room" stage, and commented how even though it's such a simple idea, it is a brilliant one that would be hard to come up with.
-====Clock Tower====
+The contest itself, "Mr. Kondo" and 'Sega Saturn Magazine'' are mentioned by Noriyoshi Oba in the "README.DOC" file found on the Disc for the Japanese version of the game, which is discussed in the "Versions" section below. ''Sega Saturn Magazine'' was also thanked as "セガサターンマガジン編集部のみなさん (Sega Saturn Magazine Editorial Staff)" in the [[#Japanese_version|Japanese Version credits]] under the "Special Thanks" section.
-Gears, pipes and oily platforms abound up here, as the search for Chelsea nears its close. You can change the direction of how some things turn, but that may not always be beneficial... Plus, it being a tower, there's an awful lot of long drops to worry about. The boss is a large castle that transforms into a cruel beast.
+==Versions==
+The NTSC (US) version of ''Clockwork Knight 2'' is based on ''[[Clockwork Knight: Pepperouchau no Fukubukuro]]'' with "Part 1" removed. As it is based on Fukubukuro, the game contains additional modes such as ''The Movies!'' and ''Bosses Galore'', both of which are missing from the European and Japanese versions of the game.
-====Final Boss====
+One thing to be noted in the NTSC (US) version is that just like Fukubukuro, the "A Lullaby" ending video and even credits screens are missing, and after beating "Part 2", you are simply returned to the main title screen after being shown the ending video and the screen showing how many cards you collected during your play.
-This is the very end of the game - a final one-on-one battle with what appears to be the perpetrator over just who gets Chelsea...
+On a special note, the Disc for the Japanese version of the game contains an easter egg in the form of an .DOC file titled "README.DOC", which when viewed contains messages from the team that developed the game, all in Japanese. This file can be seen [[:File:CK2README.DOC|here]].
-===Soltian Roulette===
+===Localised names===
-After finishing the boss level of a room (save Clock Tower or the final boss), you can play this mini-game with Soltia, Prunchau and Le Bon. Essentially you bet your Imperial Crowns on the likelihood of your getting something from a roulette of various things (ranging from more Imperial Crowns, 1UPs, 3UPs, to clown faces, which gain you squat). After betting 5, 10 or 15 Imperial Crowns, the roulette boxes will reveal the contents (the amount of everything varies depending on how much you bet) then go for a quick spin, after which you choose which box you think has what you want. If you get something you can keep it, or spin again for a double-or-nothing round (this can be done four times, with the amount of doubles going down by one each time). It's certainly not a bad idea to play this, as the later levels can be pretty tricky.
