Amazon.com Review

Kicking things off with a hilarious foreword written by Mumbo Jumbo himself, Prima's guide to Banjo-Kazooie is as funny as it is helpful. The book's opening section quickly summarizes the basic elements of gameplay and the underlying plot. You'll learn a little about each of the main characters as well as each of Banjo and Kazooie's special moves and attacks. There's also a section full of basic strategies for the game in general and the nine different game worlds in particular. As you move into the level-by-level walk-throughs, you'll see some nicely illustrated world maps, each annotated with screen captures and descriptive captions. The book doesn't break down the game's cheat codes, but it does tell you how to track down a character who can: wherever Cheato the spellbook makes an appearance, this book will guide you to him. --Michael Ryan

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Strategy Guide For A Grandma!, March 28, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Banjo - Kazooie (Prima's Official Strategy Guide) (Paperback)

This book covers all the important things you'll need to know to complete the game. Honestly, I don't know how anyone would do it without this guide! It shows the locations of all the things you'll collect and offers suggestions as to how to accomplish some of the more difficult tasks. Although the maps are confusing, the game would be much harder without them. After you understand the layout of the worlds everything makes more sense, and without the maps its practically impossible to do that.

Really liked the way this book was set-up. Has all of the info. you need to get through the game. Also, has info that you need to just "do it yourself".
