Adventures of Lolo 3 is a puzzle game released in 1991 by HAL Corporation for the Nintendo Entertainment System. It is based on the Japanese Eggerland video game series. It was the third and final installment of the Adventures of Lolo series released in the U.S. This game included some new additions to gameplay.

In Japan, this game was released as The Adventures of Lolo 2 because Adventures of Lolo was not released in Japan. Additionally, the Japanese version of the game had a different difficulty curve, different stages, and Moby (the whale-like creature) appeared in Level 9 instead of Level 11. [1]

Story

From the Adventures of Lolo 3 manual:

Lolo, Lala and their friends have lived peacefully for many years, ever since the defeat of the Great Devil (in The Adventures of Lolo 2). But suddenly his son and heir, the new King of Eggerland, launched a hollow capsule filled with a strange potion that turns the inhabitants of Lolo and Lala's tiny kingdom to stone. Only Lolo and Lala, basking in the sun at the edge of the lake between the two kingdoms, were spared this horrible fate. Brave in the face of adversity, our hero and heroine set out together to defeat the evil King and cast off his spell. Only you can help our brave pair now...[2]

Game information

The player has the ability to select between playing as Lolo or Lala in the levels. Neither character has any advantage over the other, however. Two changes to the gameplay included the crumbling bridge, which is a bridge that can only be crossed two times before it crumbles into nothingness. The other change was a new monster called Moby. Mobies only appear in the underwater levels and use a line of sight attack that sucks Lolo in towards them. Though not directly a fatal attack, it can cause Lolo to get stuck and have to restart the room.

When pressing select to give up, Lolo does not actually die this time. Instead, a short "give up" tune plays and the level restarts. Pressing Start will return the player to the overworld map. Pressing start again reveals the password to that point in the game. Adventures of Lolo 3 uses 16 character passwords instead of 4 character ones.

The game features a total of 17 levels with 100 different puzzle rooms, 9 boss rooms, and 10 training rooms. Levels 3, 13, and 17 have 10 rooms each. The other levels only have 5 rooms. Levels 4-7, 9-12, and 17 have a boss at the end. The two big trees on the overworld map are where the training rooms are, each tree having five rooms each.

For the Japanese version, see Adventures of Lolo II (Japan).

• Released as アドベンチャーズオブロロ 2 in Japan, pronounced The Adventures of Lolo 2.
• The Western versions have different maps than the Japanese version (as seen by comparing the screenshots).
• Contains 110 maps (14 Levels with 5 Rooms each, 3 Levels with 10 Rooms each, and several boss battles).
• This game marks the debut of the monster named Moby.

This game was the last title to be released in North America and was also the longest title released in the US. It's whopping 110 maps made it over twice as long as the previous two titles on the NES and this game actually seemed like a bit more of an adventure. Lolo and Lala played this game together (players had the ability to switch between the two characters) and they were presented with an explorable World Map with locations that contained the labyrinths that they had to conquer in order to save their people. The game was, therefore, not linear like previous titles, but some places could not be visited until others were conquered. For example, the Tower (Level 3) requires a Key to open it (which is obtained at the completion of one of the caves- Level 2), and at the top of the tower Lolo/Lala has to create a rainbow bridge with the Rainbow Egg which is found in another cave- Level 1. Level 1 and 2 can be visited out of order, but they must be completed before unlocking Level 3, and you must have the Egg before you can finish the Tower. This game is generally considered to be the most interesting, challenging, and fun of Lolo and Lala's excursions on the 8-bit platform(s).

Like The Adventures of Lolo 2 (Western versions) before it, this game has many differences between the Japanese version and the NA/EU release. This is evident in the screenshots presented. It is the general consensus of those that have played both versions that the Japanese version is the more difficult version of the game. The new monster, Moby, appears in Level 9 in the Japanese version of the game, whereas it does not make its appearance until Level 11 in the NA/EU version. The game presents for the first time the idea of breakable bridges (bridges you can only cross twice because they crack and then shatter), but these are introduced much earlier on in the Japanese than in the NA/EU version.
