Adventures of Lolo 3 is HAL Laboratory’s third and final chapter in their NES puzzle series, released in 1991. You play as Lolo, a small round hero, navigating a world map of kingdoms to rescue the world’s creatures from the villain King Egger â one tightly designed single-screen room at a time.
How to play
Every room sets the same goal: collect each heart container to unseal the treasure chest, then reach the chest to clear the stage. What changes is how enemies and push blocks are arranged between you and those hearts. Lolo can fire magic shots to freeze enemies into pushable eggs, which can then be shoved into position to block sightlines or fill gaps. Each room gives only a limited supply of shots, so every one counts. Press Shift (Select) to reset the current room without penalty if you reach a dead end.
- Move: Arrow keys
- Magic shot (A button): X
- Select / Reset room: Shift
- Start / Pause: Enter
Tips
- Plan your heart collection order before taking the first step. The route that looks obvious often leaves you boxed in before the last few hearts.
- Medusa enemies petrify Lolo the moment he steps into their horizontal or vertical line of sight. Push a frozen enemy egg in front of a Medusa before crossing its gaze.
- Magic shots are strictly limited per room. If you exhaust them with enemies still blocking the path, reset with Shift and try a different approach â there is no penalty for resetting.
